Snowballs

"Be on the lookout and ready to round up your Crew for a friendly snowball fight, but be forewarned, those icy little suckers can pack a wallop."

- Rockstar Games.

Snowballs were a temporary weapon featured in Grand Theft Auto Online only during Festive Surprise events.

Grand Theft Auto Online
Snowballs are throwable "items" that use the same animations as Grenades and can therefore also be tossed underarm, and from vehicles. On some surfaces, where a snowball is thrown, it will leave a powdery texture (e.g. on vehicles).

Grand Theft Auto Online
As expected from snowballs, performance is poor. Snowballs do a minimal amount of damage, but are still lethal, as three snowballs are required to kill a pedestrian, and more than 10 must be used to kill a player with full health. Hitting the head of a pedestrian/player has a chance to knock them down for a small amount of time. Like the Ball from Grand Theft Auto V, the snowball is light and can be thrown far.

Snowballs can be used to break vehicle headlights and windows, and snowballs can also hit police without getting a wanted level; however, doing this multiple times may result in a one-star wanted level.

Grand Theft Auto Online

 * Snowballs can be gathered and stored three at a time by pressing G (PC) or D-pad Left (console) when a player is unarmed in snowy weather. Nine Snowballs can be stored at time and will disappear when swapping sessions or starting Jobs. They are stored in the thrown-items section of the Weapon Wheel.

General

 * The ability to pick snowballs from the ground and throw them was also used in a previous Rockstar game, Bully.
 * Throwing a snowball at pedestrians or in their cars for the first time will cause them to get out of their vehicles to react at the player then move on. However, they will walk away or drive off if they subsequently throw snowballs at the same pedestrian.
 * Snowballs cannot be used to hold up convenience stores. The clerk will not react when aimed at with a snowball and will flee or cower if the player throws a snowball inside the store.
