Grenade Upgrades in Mass Effect 1 are one of the upgrade categories of the game and are specifically designed to enhance the effectiveness of your hand Grenades granting different effects like freezing or burning targets within the blast radius. All Grenade Upgrades come in all the 10 levels, except Anti-Thorian Gas.
A Grenade can only have one type of Grenade Upgrade active at a time, while several weapon upgrade mods can be installed to dramatically increase its performance above and beyond stock levels. Grenade Upgrades can be purchased from Merchants, looted from containers and also can be dropped by killed enemies or bosses.
