Knock Down Enemies
The trap knocks down enemies within its blast radius, making them vulnerable to an instant kill.
This is especially useful for missions that require you not to eliminate anyone in the area, as it allows you to incapacitate enemies and complete your objectives with fewer obstacles in your way.
Use as a Bomb to Deal Damage
The trap can be modified to deal damage, essentially turning it into a bomb. It is most effective when used against multiple enemies to inflict damage on all of them simultaneously.
How to Unlock Trap
