# Detonate Mines [[Detonate Mines]] is a skill gem that performs the same function as the gem-less detonate skill that is automatically made available when a player has used a mine. Unlike detonating mines using the hotkey, the Detonate Mines skill gem can take advantage of mechanics afforded by being linked to support gems. ## Skill functions and interactions - [[Detonate Mines]] is a colourless gem and can be placed into any item socket. - Trigger Gems: Detonate Mines can be linked to trigger gems like [[Cast when Damage Taken Support]] or [[Spell Totem Support]] to allow the player to detonate mines without need to manually use a key.
