In Halo Wars 2, Plasma Mines is a leader power available exclusively to Atriox. It has a cooldown timer of 105 seconds. When activated, three mines are deployed to the targeted location in a linear pattern; rotating the camera allows the player to rotate the pattern’s orientation. A second leader power, Counter Measures, automatically deploys plasma mines around newly-captured Power Nodes.
Each mine is cloaked shortly after being deployed, and will detonate when enemy ground units enter its proximity. The explosion damages nearby enemy units, then creates a pool of boiling plasma in the area (lasting approximately 40 seconds); enemy ground units in the pool continue take damage over time.
Plasma Mines are replaced by Scorch Mines in Blitz.
