Vet From Mines

Jump back to quoted post30 Jul 2013, 14:09 PMpewpewforyou

I mine everything because I'm in love with them since CoH... but often I see them only kill one unit in a squad, which makes me go "meh." It's still worth it though, even for the psychological effect (and that rare chance that you'll hit that stupid flame HT).

I've seen it kill 3 guys in a gren squad. I suppose it's random I guess.

I have too. It's random, depending on how clumped the guys are and how much health they have. If one guy darts out on his own while the others are autoseeking cover, mines are pretty ineffective. Against full health squads, it usually knocks out one guy (which is fine with me, I suppose).

While I agree that the mines are IMBA on the plus side the half track mine is a guarantee immobilize and the teller kills a T-70 outright 7/10 times. Those are both rather useful however I feel that they are not spammable. I do think that an increase in price on the Russian mine and an improved German AI mine would be great changes.

That being said the purpose I was trying to get at with this thread is that say a gren squad does lose 3 men to stepping on a mine that squad should not be rewarded with experience for at all. Same goes for bunker MGs IMO.

I find it utterly ridiculous to vet from freezing to death)
