The '''Mine Layer''' is an alternative secondary weapon for the Demoman. It appears similar to the [[Stickybomb Launcher]], except with a cylindrical magazine, a circular ejection port, and a large metal chassis. | The '''Mine Layer''' is an alternative secondary weapon for the Demoman. It appears similar to the [[Stickybomb Launcher]], except with a cylindrical magazine, a circular ejection port, and a large metal chassis with yellow warning paint on its side. The paint appears yellow regardless of which team the user is on. | ||
Instead of the Stickybomb Launcher's manually detonated stickybombs, the Mine Layer fires proximity mines that explode after 0.6 seconds when an enemy player, or its own wielder, exists within their detonation radius. This includes shooting mines at an enemy, whether or not the mines are in mid-air. If shot [[water|underwater]], the mines will have significantly reduced velocity, but will explode as normal. The mines have the same damage and splash radius as regular stickybombs, and take 0.8 seconds to become active. The Mine Layer can also hold down its primary fire to charge, increasing the speed (and therefore distance) that mines can be shot at. This occurs 50% faster than the Stickybomb Launcher, reaching maximum charge in 2 seconds instead of 4. As a penalty, the weapon only holds 4 mines in its clip, and can only have 4 mines out at a time. | Instead of the Stickybomb Launcher's manually detonated stickybombs, the Mine Layer fires proximity mines that explode after 0.6 seconds when an enemy player, or its own wielder, exists within their detonation radius.
