Unlike Claymores or Proximity Mines, which focus on dealing direct damage, Scatter Mines serve a different purpose. Their primary function is to act as an early warning system, alerting players to nearby enemies.

When placed, Scatter Mines will explode when enemies are nearby. Though they don't cause much damage, they give players a hit marker, showing that enemies are close by.
