The frag mine is a weapon in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics[]

Standard military-issue anti-personnel proximity explosives, dealing explosive damage upon detonation. When approached by an enemy it emits a beep shortly before exploding. It can be disarmed while close to it by interacting with it. Like other land mines, it cannot be used in V.A.T.S.

  • Mines placed by the player character will not explode when approached by companions.
  • Frag mines cannot be picked up while they are armed.
  • The Courier can teach Decanus Severus how to disarm and rearm the NCR's mines.[1]
  • When placing mines on the ground and either waiting or sleeping near the area where they are placed, they will disappear.
  • Dead Money If one places a demolition charge, disarms it, and picks it back up, they will receive a frag mine instead.

  1. Courier: "I can show you how to disarm the NCR's mines."
    Severus: "That would be worth knowing, especially if we can then rearm and reuse them."
    Courier: "The trick is to rush the mine and press the blinking red light."
    Severus: "The light is a button that can interrupt detonation? We were too busy throwing ourselves to the ground to figure that out. To rearm the mine, we'd just press the button again - simple. The Profligates will regret that we learned this."
