The Trip Mine is an equipment item that has been seen in the alpha build of Halo 3 and is usable in the Halo 3 Multiplayer Beta.
Background
It has not been confirmed to be in the finalized game. The Trip Mine, like the Bubble Shield, Power Drainer, and Portable Grav Lift, are all in the category of "Equipment". It can be deployed using the "X" Button. It may be the same thing as a Lotus Antitank Mine, as both are activated by nearby motion and inflicts lethal damage to vehicles.
The trip mine can be activated by proximity or touch, but will not be activated by a crouched player. Once deployed, it can be identified by a high pitched beeping noise or by a distinctive flashing red light on its top. It's blast radius is considerably larger than a grenade explosion or rocket explosion. The activation radius is smaller than the kill radius. The trip mine can not be deactivated once deployed. However, it can be remotely activated by projectile weapons or grenade explosions.
The trip mine has the ability to attach itself to vehicles if it is deployed nearby. There is a several second delay between deployment and detonation, but it will stick to vehicles immediately. It will detonate by itself after a period of time.
Tactics
- When running away from a moving vehicle, a mine can be deployed in front of a moving enemy vehicle. Be careful though, it may kill not only the driver and passengers but you as well.
Spawns
Valhalla is the only map that the trip mine spawns on in the Halo 3 Multiplayer Beta. It spawns next to a pair of spikers on top of each base. Another copy will spawn if the original has been taken.
