Plasma Mine (Fallout 3)

This mine, similar to the frag mines(Only more powerful), erupts into a fiery cloud of green plasma when it explodes. It is often found on Enclave Officers, Enclave Soldiers, and in Enclave crates in the outposts that appear in the wastelands. It is particularly effective against robot and electronic enemies. It is also almost never found in the wasteland armed.

It is rarer than frag mines, and slightly less common place than pulse mines after the storyline advances and the enclave arrive. That said, it is more common than bottlecap mines.

For some reason, it has a tendency to fall on it's side or upside down, probably due to it's design.

Places Plasma Mines Can Be Found:

 * There is one inside the VSS armory after you complete Operation: Anchorage


 * They are common in mine boxes in Enclave camps. They are also common loot for Enclave soldiers and officers.
