You know what I think? A lot of you will hate me for this, but I think not only should this mechanic stay, it should be improved. Of course RE's would have to be reworked a bit to maintain balance, but it's a valid AV AND AI tactic. Since it's already an OHK on infantry, just make it to where you can only carry one but it does the damage of three. Or make it two with the damage of 1.5 RE's. Then scale up the damage instead of the potential number carried when you level up the skill. It would give Minmatar a GOOD AV weapon, and it wouldn't really effect infantry any different than it is now except for the fact that you would only be able to detonate 1 or 2 (depending on which way you go with it, I'd lean towards 2) instead of 3-5 depending on the type you are carrying.
To those who say it's like stabbing yourself with a nanite injector, your not thinking that through. You are comparing two completely different things; stabbing through a steel/carbon polymer/whateverthehellthesesuitsaremadeof suit compared to pressing a button. Don't be butthurt, accept it and incorporate it.

It doesn't reward tactical use of REs, it potentially rewards stupidity with multiple kills.
This is New Eden, where trolls thrive and prosper. This is a place where rats and backstabbers are hailed as patriots and where ganking is thoroughly encouraged.
There, you see that? Trolls and ganking. Can you think of a more trolly gank that a suicide RE scout?
RE's are fine, and CCP should support suicide scouts with their own month like the Nova Knife scouts!

Did you see that the merc was bleeding out for a while and then you were killed by REs? What I can reproduce is that REs would explode when the triggering animation doesnGÇÖt finish at the time of kill. The call for help screen or waiting for deployment canGÇÖt trigger REs.
Thank you.
I can confirm this as the detonating person. REs still allow for activation on bleedout. You sir are now my favorite cpm, in response to those asking for it to remain as , it doesnt make sense that you can pull the trigger, if it did you would be able to do other actionS like shoot your side arm or throw a nade , but you can not, so you should not be able to detonate a RE
I still feel that lying still and moving your finger to press a button is far different that pulling out a grenade and activating it or pulling out a sidearm and shooting at people. Far, far different.
