Flashbangs are a form of weapon found in the Alan Wake videogame. In real life, it is used by military and police forces to stun and temporarily blind hostiles while breaching rooms.
Description
Flashbangs explode with a blinding flash of lioght that disintegrates Taken instantly. This is a single-use weapon that you can make the most of when surrounded by multiple Taken.
Tactics
Flashbangs are similar to the Flare Gun in that its explosion instantaneously eradicates any Taken caught in its blast radius. However, it has a much larger blast radius, and does not create a temporary safe haven of light.
Trivia
- The way Alan uses flashbangs is extremely hazardous. In real life, flashbangs should not be handled that way for fear of suffering damage to the retinas or ears after prolonged use.
- Flashbangs are the only items Alan use that are atypical of gear usually used by hunters.
