How to Use - Trap Mines.jpg
Trap Mines are stationary bombs that can be only be triggered when someone walks on it. When triggered, it creates a massive explosion that can deal damage to anyone nearby. It is recommended that you use it only on situations where the enemies haven't seen you yet, this way you can avoid taking damage from triggering it too early because of the attacking enemies.

One way of using the Trap Mine is by planting it on a nearby area before moving forward to kill flanking enemies. You can also lure enemes by using a Brick or a Bottle to make noise near the Trap Mine, which they will then set off.

Note: You can also be damaged by the Trap Mine if you are within the range of the explosion.
