The Mine Layer is a great "fire-and-forget" trapping tool. It trades self-detonation for automatic detonation, allowing you to defend multiple areas at the same time~~. You are also able to view outlines of your deployed mines through walls, allowing you to always keep track of your mines, even if you're on the other side of the map~~. However, you are only allowed to have 6 mines deployed at the same time, so be resourceful with how many mines your traps have and how many areas you defend at once. Also, keep in mind that mines always audibly beep and detonate 0.4 seconds after being walked over, so enemies that are aware of your shenanigans can easily exploit your traps. Pressing your alternate fire while you have mines deployed will make said mines fizzle out without an explosion. While this sounds like a negative, it can be used to quickly set up another mine trap if your previous one didn't work out.

Mines cannot stick to walls, and a mine will bounce off the wall onto the floor once shot.
