Cluster Grenades
Cluster Grenades is a rune effect in Grenades, a Hatred-generating Demon Hunter skill.
This rune effect causes each grenade to explode in a burst of smaller explosions. These deal less damage per explosion, but greatly increase the area of effect, ensuring that every enemy in the vicinity takes at least some damage. They're also very useful against destructibles since the blasts cover a wide range.
