Genuinely , you can't let those vehicles to be overpowered by running over people without worrying about anything they might step on while driving , if we had some land mines which they trigger by LAVs OR HAVs running over them we wouldnt have those over powered LAVs |

Proxies do not do a lot of damage -pretty much 800 per. This may sound like a lot but will take 5+ to kill a decent LAV or tank.
It's just too hard to stack that many on a char and get more than 1 kill and then be empty. Their drawbacks also readily alert people who are paying attention who proceed to turn on hardeners and blow right through them so they aren't even a deterrent.
I suggest buffing then to 1000 dmg per (maybe even 1200 at proto) and make them dmg through hardeners (lore could be hardeners do not work on undercarriage. ) |

We've got Proximity mines already, don't do enough damage for what they are in my opinion, 3 of 'em together never fail to kill a Lav, Llv's on the other hand are kittens to kill |

We got mines.
And we DON'T.
Some time ago I had a mine trap of 11 mines (all ADV and PRO) and a charyb drove thru. Now usually proxies won't do damage because they don't detonate. Well this time 9 out of 11 DID detonate! The result? Charybdis (armor tank LLAV) continued with 80% armor. Hopeless.
Proxies are not a 'install 30secs and forget' type of device. The way I'm getting kills with them is to camp around the field and finish/assist with lai dais. |

The trick is to stack regular remotes with the proxies. When the proxies go they set off the regular remotes for a much larger explosion. 2300-ish damage total for just 2 mines I believe.

AFAIK, PRO and ADV proxies do the same damage as STD, you can just carry/set more. They do less damage per explosive than remotes (for whatever reason). They have some hit detection issues it seems like. They sometimes deploy incorrectly and *poof* (bad considering how few you can carry at once).
It's a frustrating situation, speaking as someone that also has rank 5 in that skill. It's not worth the hassle to even use them most of the time, which makes it feel like a waste of 620k SP. |

So yeah, you basically but the hurt on that guy. |
