- description of Concussion Mine

Concussion Proximity Mines are concussion grenades that lay on the ground or on walls and detonate when enemies approach. Like its associated grenade, concussion mines provide simple blast force, useful as a tool to neutralize bots and humans alike. They may also be used to break down locked doors and chests instead of Multitools or keys, though the grenade is more effective in this situation. They only appear in Deus Ex: Invisible War, replacing the grenades from the original that could function as both mines and grenades. Although a reliable substitute for standard grenades, these are rarer than the normal variety, and may not be worth the inventory space they take up if grenades are available.
