Payday 2: How To Get C4 (Trip Mines)
It’s been almost a decade since Payday 2 was released and it is still going strong amongst the players. The action-packed first-shooter has a wide range of weapons and trip mines to fight against armed law during heists. While there are plenty of trip mines to cause explosions, players are specifically looking for C4. You can use them to breach locked doors, safes, and armored trucks. But how to get them? Here’s our guide on how to get the C4 in Payday 2.
How to Get a C4 in Payday 2
You can get them by unlocking the Shaped charge skill and converting the Trip mines into C4. But there are some prerequisites and steps to unlock it. They are as follows:
- You need to be at least on level 36 or above.
- You need 42 Skill points to unlock the Shaped Charge skill .
- Once you ace this skill, you can place the C4s or Shaped charge to cause explosions.
- They can be placed to unlock safes , armed trucks , doors , and gates , and inflict damage .
- Due to them being explosive, they are not suitable for completing stealth-based objectives.
How to Use a C4
- You can place a C4 onto an object and step aside. It will explode in a couple of seconds after placing it.
- Hold and press the F key to place the C4 .
- Although the basic skill adds only three C4, an Aced skill can add six C4 explosives to your inventory.

The trip mine is a Semtex explosive device that can be planted on various surfaces, and is unlocked as part of the Sharpshooter tree.
Overview [ ]
A trip mine is triggered when an enemy crosses its laser, if the mine itself is struck by gunfire or caught in the blast radius of another live mine (potentially causing a wasteful chain reaction). The explosion of a trip mine causes damage to the player who planted it, if they are close enough.
A trip mine attached to a destructible surface will explode as soon as the surface is destroyed. The laser turns on automatically when the trip mine is deployed, but can be toggled on and off by nearby players. When fully upgraded, the explosion will kill any enemy that is within a few feet, including the Bulldozer . For this reason, the trip mine is often used to combat special enemies in close quarters.
Trip mines can be very useful in killing Bulldozers, since these units are slightly taller than the average AI and player. One can place the trip mine just above their head in a corridor or narrow hallway, making it so none of the passing enemies will trigger it until a Bulldozer does.
The player, allies, and escort NPCs (like Matt in Heat Street) cannot trigger trip mines, but civilians can.
Upgrades [ ]
Achievements [ ].
- 1 Payday Gang
- 2 Enemies (Payday 2)
- 3 Perk Decks
This mod allows sensor-mode trip mines to highlight civilians in stealth and non-special enemies in loud.
Additions in v1.1 (released 7/24/16):
- Your trip mines are now immune to all damage when in sensor mode.
- Other players will not be able to change the mode of your trip mines, only you can.
- Your trip mines will automatically default to sensor mode when placed during stealth.
Notes: This should work as host OR client. The host and clients will both see the highlights and hear the beeps. Requires BLT. To install just put it in the mods folder.

Originally posted by Gubbyfishy™ : bomb a guy with tripmines on DW HBO and he'll blow up any pathwalk on the map that he can. looks like your heist just got turned into easy-mode.
Originally posted by Spray & Pray : I can see a downside to this, you want to load up on ammo but end up loading up on tripmines instead, and emptying the bag for everyone else.
Originally posted by Gorey : As far as i can remember, there's only 3 skybridges. And 1 technician can already take them all out by himself. If he were able to replenish them he would stilll be useful for other stuff like booby trapping the power box, or opening doors. Imagine the saw guy saying "sorry guys already used my blades on the ATM's, you'll have to find some other way to get that door open".
Originally posted by Rokk : Originally posted by SC : I'd rather our trip mines be increased from 6 to 10 like in PDTH.
Originally posted by Gubbyfishy™ : Originally posted by Rokk : I'd rather see them increased to 12 and have shaped charges cost 2 tripmines. Would make tripmines more useful to actually set traps with and such.
Originally posted by SC : Originally posted by Gubbyfishy™ : You might wanna rethink the part about shaped charge cost since it varies from object to object...

This is just a guide which contains all of my knowledge of the trip mine. I`ve been a technician for my whole Payday career, and I know quite a lot of things about it.
The most efficient use of trip mines I have ever seen.. The guy is probably concerned that if he puts one C4 block in the middle, cops might accidentally run around it and fail to set it off. He probably didn't realise that if you put the block on the side of the entryway, the laser covers the entire threshold, and therefore holy shit how dense ...
Sensor mines are fantastic and shaped charges are certainly very useful on many missions but are there any good uses for the Fire Trap skill or explosive trip mines on loud missions at all for that matter? Would love to see a video demonstrating their usage if possible.
The Trip mine is a deployable trap in PAYDAY 2. Law enforcers may also deploy their own trip mines during day 2 plan B (going loud at the warehouse) of the Election Day heist, and trip mines can be found covering doorways on both days of the Hotline Miami heist. The trip mine is a powerful explosive, capable of instantly eliminating any law enforcement units caught in the blast radius ...

Trip Mines and their social stigma So, maybe its just because i have them fully upgraded but i fucking love trip mines and if C4 isn't need it seems like a lot of people don't want me to bring them. (and i won't if we need ammo or med, Teamwork makes the dream work) anybody wanna tell me why?

2. One of the perks for Technician is the ability to turn trip mines into sensors that beep, instead of explode when tripped. Can guards see these, or hear when they are tripped?

Last time I checked, that tree also has silent drills in it. Sensor mines get you to that tier 4 skill, and you can't silently pick titan safes. It's a good option for DW Stealth players for missions like Nightclub (put a sensor mine at the back alley, where the guards spawn) and anything else where drilling is a necessity.

Trip Mines from ammo bags We can refill our saw blades from ammo bags, why not trip mines too? I think it would make technicians more useful. Espcially on missions where C4 is handy and you would rather have only one person using them.
