Grenades are one of the main weapons in the game. Although I'm calling them grenades there are also ninja starts which have special effects as well. These grenades don't impact the way we play but do add a lot to the game. For example a fire star could be also used as an anti titan weapon as it does decent damage to them. All grenades usually have two charges and you can hold them.
Frag Grenade
This is your regular grenade that you get at the start of the game. You can cook your grenade in your hand making it have a shorter explosion time. This is good for base damage and even though you get it at the start, still very handy later on.
Arc Grenade
The arc grenade actually doesn't do a lot of damage but it stuns enemy pilots so they cant really move which makes for an easy kill. The splash on this is also quite big so you can chuck and see if you get any hit markers than go in. Although great on pilots, on titans all they do is the enemies vision for a short time.
Fire Star
This is not a grenade but a ninja star. This is one of my favourite weapons as it looks so cool and it does pretty good damage. If you hit a pilot it will kill and its also good against titans. You can also use it for blocking paths and blocking titan vision.
Gravity Star
This does little damage but pulls all enemies in towards it. So its quite good if you're using a grenade launcher so you can set it up and kill them all. This has no effect on titans and mainly used for pilots. I personally use it to group AI in to get some quick kills.
Electric Smoke
This is my favourite grenade as it doesn't do impact damage but more of a damage over time thing. You throw down a kind of gas grenade which damages enemies that walk into it. This also block their vison so its great for escapes and attacking enemies. You can put this on a titan to do damage and block their vision.
Satchel
This is a bit different as you have to detonate it. It acts like c4 as you have to place it down and detonate it. You can place two down at once and its great if someone is camping in a room so you can kill them. To be honest I find this very situational as you may as well just shoot them and by the time you place it down you're dead.
