Drains 0.75 stamina per second and an additional 0.25 stamina per shot. When stamina reaches 0, the talent loses its effect and applies a fixed immediate sway.

For example, a Veteran with 7 stamina aiming down sights for 5s and shooting twice during this time will have 7-(5x0.75+2x0.25)=2.75 stamina left after the 5s have elapsed; or 39% as per player HUD. The stamina cost reductions from Conditioning and Celerity Stimm reduce this drain effect.

This debuff being unique means that it is in fact a separate debuff which stacks additively with the regular rending debuff ('brittleness') from Onslaught and weapon blessings Shattering Impact, Supercharge, and Thunderous; thereby effectively raising the cap of 40% total rending on an enemy to 60%.

• Deals very low direct impact damage
• Suppression radius (explosion): 15m
• Explosion radius: 10m (max), 2m (epicenter)

• Stagger: Deals high stagger against all enemies including monstrosities, except for Scab Captain/Twins
• Ammo: replenishes all grenades per grenade pickup

Augmented version: (Shredder Frag Grenade)
Throws a frag grenade that explodes applying bleed to all enemies within its explosion radius.

• Same properties as starting version
• Bleed: applies 6 bleed stacks on explosion; is the same bleed like other sources of bleed: 16 max stacks on a target, ticks every 0.5s, lasts 1.5s; bleed damage is increased by the same sources (except Grenade Tinkerer) that also buff the grenade's explosion damage (see above). Additionally, bleed damage is affected by perks of currently equipped weapons and the following buffs from:

Throw a grenade that deals devastating Damage. Sticks to Flak Armoured, Carapace Armoured & Unyielding Enemies.

Throws a grenade that can home in only on Carapace armor and that always sticks to armor types Carapace, Flak, and Unyielding before it explodes for high single target damage.

• Fuse time: 2s (thrown), 2s (stuck on target)
• Max throwing speed: 30 (aimed, quick throw), 8 (underhand)
• Deals very low direct impact damage
• Suppression radius (explosion): 6m
• Explosion radius: 1.5m (epicenter), 5m (max)
• Explosion damage: enemies inside epicenter will take more damage, enemies between epicenter and max radius will take less damage depending on distance, enemies that the grenade sticks to always take epicenter damage; base damage epicenter: 2400, base damage between epicenter and max radius: 200; fixed power level; inside epicenter, good armor damage modifiers across the board and very high armor damage modifiers against Carapace, Flak, Unyielding; outside epicenter, decent armor damage modifiers across the board; damage is increased by 'rending' / 'brittleness' and by damage buffs from Bring it Down!, Close Quarters Killzone (if within 30m to the enemy), Competitive Urge, Covering Fire (if applied to Veteran by another Veteran), Grenade Tinkerer, Longshot (if not within 12.5m to the enemy), Redirect Fire! (if tagged), Skirmisher, Superiority Complex (against elites), Surprise Attack, and aura Fire Team
• Stagger: Deals high stagger against all enemies including monstrosities; against Scab Captain/Twins only without shield
• Ammo: replenishes all grenades per grenade pickup

How homing and sticking work:
Homing in on a target and sticking to a target are two separate mechanics. Void shields (Scab Captain, Twins) cancel both mechanics.

Homing only applies to regular throws, not to underhand throws; the grenade can only home in on Carapace armor hit zones; if the projectile is within 3m to a valid target after a minimum lifetime of 0.33s, it will automatically connect to the closest valid armor hit zone; valid hit zones are:

Sticking applies to both regular and underhand throws; the grenade can only stick to Carapace, Flak, and Unyielding armor hit zones; as soon as the projectile directly connects with a valid armor hit zone, it will stick to the target until explosion; for example, Dreg Bruisers have Flak armor hit zone on head and Unarmoured on body so the projectile can only stick to their head and never to their body.

Regardless of the hit zone the projectile sticks to, the explosion will always target center mass hit zone dealing the same damage.

Throw a grenade that creates a lingering smoke cloud for 15s. The cloud blocks line of sight for most enemies and reduces the sight range of enemies inside it.

Throws a grenade that explodes leaving a smoke cloud behind. The smoke impacts enemies' perception.

• Fuse time: 1.5s
• Max throwing speed: 30 (aimed, quick throw), 8 (underhand)
• Deals very low direct impact damage
• Initial explosion deals no damage and very light stagger, 10m radius
• Suppression radius (explosion): 15m
• Smoke cloud effect: 5.5m radius, lasts for 15s; players inside its radius are considered 'concealed' which means that the detection radius of unaggroed enemies is lowered so that players can enter an enemy's aggro range without drawing aggro immediately; if the player holds aggro from an enemy who is in melee combat, then the smoke has no effect on enemy perception; if the player holds aggro from an enemy who is in ranged combat, the smoke makes the ranged enemy stop firing and change positions (Reapers are less likely to reposition); Gunners and Reapers who are inside the smoke cloud's area of effect themselves keep firing at the player's last known position; Pox Hounds cannot lock on a player who is inside smoke cloud's area of effect and will keep circling the cloud (no effect on Mutants and Poxbursters)
• Ammo: replenishes all grenades per grenade pickup

Replenish 1% Ammo for you and Allies in Coherency whenever any of you Kill an Elite or Specialist Enemy. This can only occur once every 5s.

Killing an elite or special enemy replenishes a fixed percentage of max ammo in reserve for Veteran and allies who are in coherency with Veteran; has an internal cooldown of 5s. Allies receive the ammo amount replenished by Veteran. Does not stack with the same aura from another Veteran, multiple Veterans spread their replenished ammo amounts separately.

For example, with a weapon that has 180 bullets max ammo in reserve: On the first proc, Veteran regains 180x0.01=1.8 bullets which is rounded down to 1; the leftover amount of 1.8-1=0.8 is carried over to the next proc. On the second proc, Veteran regains 180x0.01+0.8=2.6 bullets which is rounded down to 2; the leftover amount of 2.6-2=0.6 is once again carried over to the next proc, and so on. This means, in this case, Veteran gets 1 bullet on the first proc, 2 bullets on the next four procs, and then 1 bullet again on the fifth proc, and so on.

Starting version: (Scavenger)
Replenishes 0.75% of max ammo in reserve per elite or special kill.

Augmented version: (Survivalist)
Replenishes 1% of max ammo in reserve per elite or special kill.
