“Explodes when triggered by an enemy Contestant”
Overview
Explosive Mines are lethal devices that can be placed anywhere, available to both Medium and Heavy Builds.
Uses & Interactions
The primary use for the mines is anti-personnel, and are surprisingly deadly when triggered by an enemy contestant. Furthermore, they have large blast radius and do moderate damage to surrounding buildings. When paired (2 mines), their destructive effect amplifies significantly.
Creative use of mines can lead to impromptu breaching charges, as the mines stick to whatever surface they are thrown onto, not just floors, but also walls, ceilings and other objects. Attaching one or more mines to an object allows it to be thrown as a means of bringing unexpected trouble directly to the enemy, rather than setting up a trap on a static location.
Explosive Mines are a very versatile gadget that can be used both defensively and offensively. The mine takes a few seconds to arm after placed, which is possibly its biggest weakness, and can also be destroyed if spotted by an opponent.
