After having only been only using it as a debuffer for ages,

 

I am now using the mine with a power magnifier IV, and use the explosion actively as often as possible.

 

 

So I am now considering to take the add. 75% armor damage on evo 6  instead of the 25% damage boost.

The mine needs 3 seconds to assemble so I've barely benefitted from it recently - maybe on the last BW shot, if any.

 

 

However - then the question arises if the mine-Explosion would benefit from its own 25% (multipl.) damage boost or not.

If yes, I'd definitely stay with 25% damage boost.

 

Technically it should not, since the explosion destroys the mine... ?  

But according to Kalence it does - but if you check the box it just flatly increases every damage on that page, I am afraid.

It does.

Also, detonating that bloody mine too often can get annoying... Quickly.

Blowing up Armored Bosses with Recon Mine is way more fun than shooting them 1-2 seconds earlier with a gun.

 

Go with 75% armor damage, Power Ampilfier IV, Geth Scanner V and a light weapon like the Wraith X. Or you can use a Talon X with Power Amplifier V.

one might think that, yes.

 

But not the way I am doing it at the moment.

 

I rush to a spawn (with Drell Speed  )

Cloak

lay the mine

shoot 3 times with my BW

Hide my reload with Homing Grenade (split grenades)

Cloak cooldown is over --> cloak again....

....Boom of the Recon Mine

Spawn is gone

hopefully

 

With Power Amplifier IV and cloak bonus, every foot soldier should be long gone.

 

.... but for some armored units, the 75% damage bonus would be nice.  That's why.

most of my kills with my drell are from the mine, i love that thing

ok, I am still doing way more damage with my BW.
But it really contributes to your DPS.

which option do you take on 6?

I'm confused...you're sniping and have fully specced homing grenades? Dare I ask for your build? I think it will make me cry though...

[Cryos_Feron]

I have had many different setups:

 

- I had the glitch

- I also tried a 0 fitness build (the Drell is still very fast and it really works because of the little aggro you draw)

- and I specced out of Homing Grenades completely

 

The Homing Grenades contribute the least in my strategy  - I don't need them very much (the reload hiding gets interrupted by 

shooting enemies sometimes)  

 

at the end, Homing Grenades make up like 1% of the score

 

so I probably will be preferring the 6-fitness build without it

annoying for whom ?
yourself?
the team ?
the enemies?


As annoying as flamer-annoying ???

OMG, my team hates me

Yeah, I'd say it can even be more annoying than flamer for your teammates, personally speaking. As for flamer though, it just takes a bit of thought about it and not to spam it *too* much to make it a lot less intruding and, in the end, bearable

Some people hate so many things about this game it's amazing they're still here at all.

Not many things. Just 4. 5 if you count the Geth faction.

I wouldn't count that.

 

The feeling I have towards Geth isn't hate.

 

 

 

 

It's much, much worse.

You can at least try to stay away from Flamer spamming teammate and hope for he/she gets imapaled by the Banshee. Recon mine is all over the ****** map.

[Cryos_Feron]

the flamers tend to always be where the fun is (or would be).
they are very good at this.

but I got what you mean.

at least I know now why my teams always hate me :-)

yea, but I was just opening a new thread for this

I generally stay in match with teammates having so called annoying powers though. I do realise these are powers in game and people have every right to use it.

I once left the match with a flamer, snap cheese ( or RM , can't remember) and retard carbine teammate. 3 rd one had PPR. I was even annoyed by him standing beside me and blinding me with his laser. It was Glacier and the fact the I was at bottom of the score only helped me bail out in wave 2.
