Dunno, never encountered or died by proxies, BUT IT SOUNDS DAMN SCARY!
Coming from a counter-tanker, who recently let his glass cannon Sica fall to AV. GG. |

I got done by proxes a couple days ago in my missile tank; my durability is low, so when I get hit I have to run.
Every now and then the only place for me to run is over proxes. This time I didn't have a hardener available.
And my nitrous was on.

Kudos to whoever did that.
Why can't there be more people like you instead of all the QQ'ing on the forums? You got killed by proxies and thought it significant enough to not only remember but to make a post about it. I can't even remember the times I am killed by a tank while playing AV by the end of the match. I can't remember the number of times I've been killed laying proxies with remotes down, while the number of times this has actually worked I can count on my fingers. I think his post is more or less commenting on how a type of weapon was being well used. Its not a hard weapon to use or skill into......but using them right yields tangible rewards. It seems to me he is saying that tanks can be taken out easily by proxies if you try and are half way competent. In other words, tanks are balanced, HTFU-get gud, quit bitching. He never said that. But yeah they can take down HAV if placed well. HAV aren't balanced because of this fact.
So you don't think asking " why ca,n't theRe be more people like you" doesn't mean competent and ma,king an effort? You don't think "instead of all the Qq'ing in the forums" is "quit bitching"?
Because, that's why.

I use proxy mines all the time and to great effect. I still have a SEVER logi suit I bought back in Chromosome that I put STD and ADV mines on with a hive so even if I die it is hardly any significant loss ( I don't care about KDR much).
It's all about placement, you have to choose spots where the terrain shifts from one look to another so that your cluster of small black dots is hidden from contrast. Also never put them in the same spot twice.
Depending on how keen the tank(s) are in a match, and the map, I can get up to 3 tanks a game. After that they either realize what I am doing and are astute enough to notice them or they stop bringing in vehicles (terror of where I put them next?). Even keep they are smart enough, by then I have usually killed 2-3 tanks with my 8k suit so my ISK vs ISK loss is fantastic. |

That is part of the reason they can be so effective, tankers aren't usually expecting them. |
