How to Upgrade the Grappling Hook in Just Cause 2

"Just Cause 2" is a role-playing action game available on multiple consoles and the personal computer. You play as Rico Rodriguez, an operative attempting to overthrow the evil dictator of Panau, Pandak "Baby" Panay. To defeat "Baby" Panay and his army of soldiers, you must employ a variety of weapons, including a grappling hook. The grappling hook is used to climb buildings, trip enemies, retrieve items from a far distance and more. You can earn and purchase upgrades to most weapons during game play, but no upgrades are available for the grappling hook. To obtain upgrades for the grappling hook, you must install a mod. A mod, short for modification, is an after-market customization to a video game. Modifications are only available for the PC version of "Just Cause 2."
