Learn to use them you bads, I'm demoing tanks right now with proxies.
All BPO fit costs 22k and let's me destroy tanks with ease, especially the ones that like to chase me while I'm firing an AR at them. And if you seriously need a Tanker to fit an AV suit for you, fine.
Amarr Logistics (Any really, I just like the sidearm)
Militia Shield Extender Militia Shield Extender Militia Shield Extender Militia Armor Plate Militia Armor Plate Militia Armor Rep Assault Rifle SMG EX-0 AV Grenade Proximity Explosive F/49 Proximity Explosive K-2 Nanohive
Fuckin' ta-da, now find a road that tanks drive down (pay attention, most tankers follow routes), place them in two/three lines in tight formation, but covering the road, you can place four of the standard and five of the advanced AT THE SAME TIME (9x750 people.) and now go do whatever you want. Or you can be me and sit there, wait for the tank, shoot him a few times and let him come to you, watch him go boom OR chuck an AV grenade if for some reason he didn't hit all your mines.

Except replace the F/49s and F/45s with Boundless REs/PEs.
Because that extra blast radius matters.
I like to keep mine simpler, 22k suit to take out a 70-500k tank is always fun.

How do you place? Triangle is probably the best. Now you have to ensure that the tank hits EVERY SINGLE one which is hard if they do not to come straight down the middle of a road.
Plus if a tank survives he'll just zoom off to reheal. If you stay around your mines the entire match then you have completely removed another infantryman from the battle.
Also tanks completely override whatever you set by using hardeners.
It's great for trolling a tank a two but to take down a specific tank it's almost impossible.
Stats say 750 for all Proxy, so what makes you say 500? Also I place mine in a sort of octagon shape, to get the full effect as placing them in triangles, they go over them and miss the first line it seems. You need to watch other tanks to get a general idea of where others will go, most players do the same thing and will follow distinct paths so it's quite easy to drop a load of mines and not fail unless they're using their hardeners.
Eh, you say that, but I've targeted specific tanks and won. Oh and as an additional tip, want to beat other tanks with a militia blaster tank with little effort? Place mines on road, hide tank behind it, see enemy tank, back up and watch the overconfident tanker come charging in and die because you've turned to run and he's not bothered with his hardeners ^_^

I drive over mines in my gunnlogi. I put on my hardeners and roll back and forth until the beeping stops. You are such a liar and would do anything to keep your crutch. Yeah, this guy is bullshitting, plain and simple. OP may have succeeded to get one or two tanks with that tactic but that's it.
Legitimately not bullshitting, All I see on here is "Waaaah tank spam", and yet when I get these mines out they disappear very quickly. Sure you've gotta be smart about your placement and understand it from a tankers perspective, but how about you htfu and get good :)

Where'd I go wrong bruv? Probably the part where you're a filthy troll. I have to try this now. Also, *breaks - turns out spelling does it too Indeed. The one time my forum posting OCD doesn't kick in and I edit my post right after posting it. I will not go back and edit it now in your honor. Anyway, I'm not sure if this thread is a parody or legit. The original quote here's "he's not bothered with his hardeners" implies that the trap is completely ineffective and that the enemy does not give any fucks because of his hardeners. That goes against the original post that seems to be saying that mine traps are the way to go and that people QQing about tanks just aren't doing it right.
He's not bothered with his hardeners because he hasn't got a clue what's about to happen, I shoot him with my rifle and he charges forward and pop, dead.

I've done it, perhaps it's just luck. Got some R.Es on the suit now and chucking them at things is quite fun, I'm also using the Proxies with my tank now and it's just hilarious, I use them to protect an area I'm not looking at, defends me from Jeeps, I put them on a road when I know there's another tank and bait them, they lose half their HP before their hardeners are up and then I just go to town.
