Hard Cased Bombs is a unique technology in Age of Empires IV that released in Season Nine, available to Zhu Xi's Legacy. It can be researched at the Archery Range starting in the Castle Age
After researching, enemy human units hit by Grenadiers take +15% melee and ranged damage for 5 seconds. Therefore, it does not apply to further attacks by Grenadiers, which deal siege damage, and it also does not affect siege weapons or ships. The bonus does not stack with multiple hits, but it reapplies for the full 5 seconds after each hit. Affected units display a purple debuff glow effect.
Trivia[]
- In the Public Update Preview, the technology granted Grenadiers +2 bonus damage against light infantry.
