Proximity Mine

"Come here and go BOOM! Launch sticky mines that wait for enemies to get close before exploding."

- Announcer, weapon tutorial video

The Proximity Mine is a Deployable Weapon in Sunset Overdrive. It can be bought for 20,000 Overcharges.

Description

The Proximity Mine is a pneumatic pipe-cannon launcher that fires sticky ball explosives. When stuck onto surfaces, they shortly arm themselves into proximity mines that explode whenever enemies get close to them.

Strategy

Proximity mines deal high damage to common OD and good damage against Scabs and unique Overdrinkers. The explosions are not very effective towards Fizzco Bots for some reason, however.

Trivia

• The Scabs Tossers use a similar weapon that deploys red sticky mines.
• In comparison to the TNTeddy's munition, the Proximity Mine does not explode on contact and lasts longer when no enemy is detected near it.
