Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords Hints

How should I handle the sonic mines that are set in various places?

  • 1 of 3: If you raid the plasteel cylinder near the turbolift that leads back to the admin level, you'll get lots of useful equipment, including survey gear that will boost your Awareness skill and a safety harness that boosts your Demolitions skill. Be sure to put both of those on.
  • 2 of 3: If your Demolitions skill is high enough, you'll be able to disarm or recover the mines. Always try to recover first, since that way you'll get a usable mine (and restore your save if the recovery attempt fails).
  • 3 of 3: My Jedi's Demolitions skill was zero when I played, so I just ran into the mines to detonate them and then stood and regenerated health until I was fully healed. (Some mines can just be moved around instead of detonated, but I always liked to eliminate them one way or another.)
