Hello,
I have a couple of questions about the remote explosives and Proximity mines.
Are the remote explosives able to damage structures and if so how effective are they?
Do proximity mines persist through death or equipment swap out?
Just trying to look into other options for my scout after getting behind the red dots as i don't have a great gun game and can only have one active spawn point on the map at a time..
Thanks |

Remotes can dmg structures... you could prob take out a turret with what you carry.
Proximity mines persist. |

Are the remote explosives thrown or placed?
If placed, do they affix to surfaces? |

They are placed like drop uplinks. So you cannot drop it right on your feet, they'll slide a little.
Also you can only drop them on the ground / flat surface. |

An interesting thing is that Remote Explosives persist after death, and you can still trigger them after you respawn.
However, i've never tried changing suits and seeing if that still persists

Also there is a time delay when placing remote explosives, it will take a few seconds before you can trigger them. It seems that if you try to detonate them before that time has passed trying to detonate them just makes them disappear. Not sure why that exists.
In addition, if you are shot down while you have the remote explosives equipped and are bleeding out, you can still press the button and get them to explode. Just an fyi |

the timer exists because a while back RE was the main choice for CQC/they were being used as grenades
also if you carry a nano hive u can place more than the 2 you carry
