}} A player who has this perk is equipped with one mine. When deploying, press the icon of the mine, and it will be deployed at the spot where the player is standing. The mine detonates upon direct contact, thus most likely killing the player. It is also destructible with bullets or grenades, however in this case the mine does not detonate.
Recommendations
This is extremely useful in Capture the Flag, as a mine can be hidden under your team's flag, dooming every enemy that tries to take it. It is also helpful when you place it under the enemy flag. They get a surprise when they score a point. However, for these tactics, C4 Explosives are better suited because of their bigger blast radius. However, the C4 needs to be detonated manually while the Proximity Mine does not.
As well as being useful for snipers, who can cover their flank more easily with a well-placed mine, mines can be placed around corners in high-traffic areas.
Trivia
- Prior to the Meltdown Update, the mines were in the Stealth specialization.
