Mine perks

For the love of god, remove the ability to put range extending perks on mines. So incredibly toxic. I don't have a problem with the damage or how long they stay there for, but being able to throw them that far is ridiculous. Seriously, they make me want to uninstall and smash my phone.

 

Nope​

 

I’m gonna quote Donald trump here

Wrong

 

Close this thread

 

So now can you lock this post, and btw, the reason why is said lock it, I said because people have already made posts about this, you should know that if you’re an mvp. And he sounds like he’s complaining because he gets killed by them all the time. All I’m saying is play smarter and stop complaining because this is how good players get nerfed. Stop it with these complaining/nerf this weapon posts people.

 

Exactly, people using mines smartly, and not being aware, are making these threads. And this is like the 3rd thread I’ve seen on this stuff. So please like lock it cause it’s getting annoying.

 

I just got out of a match in wayward pains. I play a speeder. One or more of the unfriends were tossing a whole ton of mines everywhere. Certain hallways were literally covered in them. Yet for all their fearsome danger and awesome coverage, the enemies lost and I didn't hit a single mine... just tip-toed around them. Why do people hate mines so much?

 

As a mine speeder, just lob a mine into an unfriendly minefeild and watch the fireworks

 

I do that. That’s how I got to 3636 infamy

 

I ‘may’ have mentioned this somewhere before, but I’ve got a legendary mine!

As it happens, I was never very interested in mines, so I didn’t have any training or perks for it, when it magically appeared out of the RNG. However, I did have a bunch of Epic range perks, so that’s what it got.

I’ve grown to love it now, and I certainly like the range perks, as they allow me to get it over walls, and place it where I need it without exposing myself too much.

But it’s definetly not OP. I had hoped that my first legendary would carry me right to the doorstep of Nightmare League, but the mine hasn’t done that. In fact it hasn’t really helped my infamy at all.

Bear in mind that it’s a Legendary replacing t4 Rare (that I was using before), so it should be a big upgrade, but it’s actually kind of the same.

The problem is, it’s a bit hit/miss. Sometimes I’ll catch someone with a mine, and it’ll change the course of the battle, but I don’t ‘really’ have a lot of control over that. If there is a 1hp Speeder running around at the end, I definitely can’t count on killing him with a mine, like I could with my Rare Blast Cannon.

So while it randomly creates some opportunities, it also makes it hard to capitalise on others that I can see.

I find I can do more damage, but I’m much more dependant on my teammates to kill damaged ships now (which of course is terrible, because everyone knows teammates are idiots).

Altogether, I’ve been running legendary mine with range perks for a while now. It’s fun, but if anything, I think it’s probably a bit underpowered.

 

I rock a mine torp combo

 

Wait why is this thread still here? Can we just close it, everyone should know that mines aren’t going to bet nerfed, you’re just going to have to get better at dodging them
