Volatile Mines

Volatile Mines is a notable passive skill that increases the damage of Mines and makes detonating mines instant.

Laying and detonating mines are two separate actions. Therefore, mine laying speed modifiers do not affect detonation time.

Detonating mines is considered a spell, with base casting speed of 0.2 seconds. During this time, two quick detonation animations play simultaneously; that of the character casting, and that of the mine(s) exploding. Detonating multiple mines at once does not increase the cast time.

When a player takes Volatile Mines, the player's need to activate the detonation hotkey still exists. It is only the casting time that is removed.
