Now holding down (LMB by default on PC) will place the mine. Upon activation the mine will start a 10-second delay before the Land Mine is armed and ready.
A deployed and armed Land Mine has a persistence lifespan of 7 days.
Deactivation[ | ]
It is possible, though dangerous, to disarm a deployed and armed Land Mine. There is a 10%-40% chance that deactivating the mine will cause its detonation. Disarming a badly damaged mine also has an additional chance of detonation, because the action deals 15 points of health damage to the mine, which may cause it to become ruined and explode. A Land Mine will be in "Badly damaged" condition when its health is 1-21.
To disarm the device, approach the Land Mine while holding one of the following tools:
- Lock Pick (90% success rate)
- Screwdriver (80% success rate)
- Combat Knife (60%)
- Hunting Knife (60%)
- Kitchen Knife (60%)
- Steak Knife (60%)
- KA Bayonet (60%)
- M4-A1 Bayonet (60%)
As soon as the option becomes available, use the Interact key (LMB by default on PC). Once disarmed, the Land Mine can be safely picked up and used again.
