I think the blast radius is gimped. its the same as grenades, yet when you blast one, the player survives even though he's close by. wtf |

The few times I haven't fluxed a point before hacking, I've been killed by RE. Running gallente adv logi so maybe its just crappy armor tank that is getting me killed, but I digress.
A corpmate was complaing about proxis the other day, I told him to lay them in a V formation, about 30 secs later we were finishing of an LLAV that had been flipped over and put into half armor by his Proxis.
I agree the Proxi could get a slight buff, but if you can't get kills with these things, you're doing in wrong. |

v formation, the open part should welcome cars right? Will a square be effective? how about a line, like a spike belt. |

RE will kill just about any suit I believe , although the heavy suit if straight up tanked may be able to survive but I've not proof of this something to try with my corp mates I suppose.
I'm very capable of killing vehicles with proximity mines as well thank you :P
But all jokes aside the proximity mines do need a bit of love as when compared to other anti vehicle equipment it's rather lacking.

Unfortunately I've found that you need to run directly over the mines to set them off personally I use close lines of 3 -3 or set them in a slightly spread minefield of 2-2-2.
When I'm in a hurry I kinda just throw them in a apread heap on the ground lol |

It shouldn't take that much effort just to guarantee a kill on a single LAV.

Generally, however, you go to all that effort only not to get a kill :( |

RE's huh? Well.... the thing is.... why the F cant I select which one I want to detonate??? Why isn't there a variant that allows this?, why aren't there proximity RE's that have less damage but detonate if someone walks within a certain distance of them? Why don't the skills have a better bonus to them?
You see..... RE's are the best way to make easy points in my opinion, the UI and inconsistency of them (in terms of actually working) is too much for me to "want" to use them. The fact that they "choose" when to do damage is annoying, the fact that I have no clue if someone blows them up is annoying. Theres a ton of UI improvements that can be done to make RE AND PM use more tactical, yet that's all cast aside for simplicities sake..... and it annoys me, therefore I don't use them. |

A lot of these suggestions have been floatin around the forums for a while. Let me add my favorite one into this
Disarm skill - hacking a RE/PM to disable it. Levels increase disarming speed. |

I remember when proxies could flip an lav. that was cool, can they still do that? Do proxies suffer with hit detection issues like the mass driver did due to the speed of lavs ? speed tanking lavs ftw
May have to dig out my re fit tonight an play about with them as re's were fun in older builds.
I will feed back later. Keep up the good work |

I've not checked in a while as when I throw PM I'm usually somewhere else fighting I'll be sure to test that for you |

As Proxies bump LAVs a bit, it means they very rarely flip them over.
Unfortunately, the bumping is a HINDRANCE to proxy users themselves as the first proxy goes off, the driving LAV just jumps over the rest of the minefield and is almost always safe.
That is the reason why some about three out of eleven mines on a field actually detonate. And three take some 20% shield off from a LAV. Which is sad.
I've even seen TANKS flying over minefields, partially because of bumping, partially because of poor 'hit detection'. |

That's more of a universal problem with equipment. If you throw anything down on specific terrains equipment is very prone to just disappear. It got better with uprising, but theres still a lot of problems. Until then you just have to make sure you throw down stuff on FLAT surfaces, that don't look "sketchy". |

One time I put a bunch of RE's down in the road inside a compound in preparation for a tank that was being really annoying. The tank went right over them and BOOM The super structure went in the air by about a meter, only to hit the ground with about half armor, which was then finished almost instantly by my AV nades...... coolest way ive ever killed a tank before! And I guess cuz it was RE's it didn't really make a difference when it bumped.... |
