Guns play a pivotal role in Free Fire. Players use them to secure eliminations and fend off opponents during gunfights. However, they are not the only usable items in-game. In addition to guns, throwables play a major role.

Gloo wall grenades are the most popular throwable item in-game. However, there are a few more that not many players are aware of. Knowing how to use these in combat can make all the difference.
