  1. DDMO1 Mines are killing UFEs with one mine I saw 10 UFEs pop with one mine in East 2 I pop too so Are the Mines Stronger during the event?

    I understand that USING SKill Tree mines and Lance formation helps kill UFEs but using 2 mines these guys are killing lots of UFEs with one mine I know they are not double or triple stacking them. Its only one mine.

    Using the Skill Tree mines Demolition 1 and 2 Demolition 5 points and (H) F-03-LA Lance formation No explosives needed in skill tree. 1 DDM mine many UFE simultaneously during the event.

    So I don't know if the Event has a Booster that helps players hit harder and Mines causing more damage
     
  2. Using Detonation I & II plus Explosive Bios and the Smart Bomb and Lance you can lay a very heavy hitting ACM

    From Mine FAQ;
    Direct-damage mine
    Proximity mine:
    20% direct damage calculated from ship's base HP and pilot-bio upgrades -
    powerful enough to destroy enemy ships entirely!

    So the Bio can increase it to 30% of Base HP, Lance Formation makes it 40%.

    I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but that isn't how the mine damage increase is calculated on the client. The mines do significantly more damage with Bio and Lance, to the point of almost causing 90% HP damage outside of the event. While Mayhem is running; however, the mines do, in fact, destroy any player who runs over them in a single go, regardless of bio or lance. Whether it's a mistake on the developer's part or an intended aspect of the event, it becomes quite bothersome to die over and over.

    On the plus side, though, your drones do not take any damage during event hours.

    i think the original 20% is from the player who drops it, if he fly in a ship with much hp the mine will have more dmg than droping it with a spear for exemple, and then the dmg bonus is added, in the event, those last two days we had 400% dmg wich let's say it's a lot, so yea at some point those mines can kill anything that moves around.
     
  5. Mexican_Jumping_Bean I see the same issue on my server (GE1) during SpaceCup or Spaceball or whatever. I used to do the whole lance formation + Detonation I & II strategy so I know whats its like to have a UFE mine that can blow out half of someone's HP with one mine.

    But during the events, I've seen tons of people pop from
    only one mine, myself included -- and yes, it was only one mine. I know what two, three, or more mines stacked on top of each other look like, me and my buddies would go in an outfit and stack them in a way so they would isnta pop people. FYI these mines have a noticeable distinction where you can clearly see them stacked upon one another.

    During these events I see something that is clearly only one mine -- yet it pops me. I just don't understand how that is possible, unless the damage boosters somehow affect these mines -- however they don't because I've tested it on my own mines myself during those events.

    The theory that someone with more HP flew over the mine, and the splash damage affects each ship surrounding it sounds interesting, but that cannot be the case either. I've flew over a mine by myself (only one mine) with no one around in 4-4 during the event when I was traveling from one portal to another, and I still popped -_-

    These mines are very mysterious, sometimes I will fly over a mine (and die of course) and while it goes off, another invisible mine right beside it will go off too and show the Detonation II cloud animation. Support please help :)

    How much sense does it have to assume a weird game glitch allows a mine to be cloaked?

    Thanks for helping the OP.

    I have not ''seen'' any cloaked mines (or better world may be experienced) If you can provide a vid, that would be great.

    Thanks

  8. How do I provide video? Upload to where here? there is a bug in the mine damage the mine damage is over 600k I saw it

    I don't know if you are participating in the event or not but these mines are hitting over 600k I saw UFES blowing up left and right too ufes all going at once...

    however, I do have mine points Demolition points ONLY. I never use Explosives, due to the fact that I will not be able to put mines closer together, furthermore, Explosives points are not going to make my mines hit any harder than they are now, the points added to Explosives just cover a wider rage on the circumference, the more points you add the wider the circumference becomes covering more area for damage. Is What I understand. Oh and of course the Light Show that comes with the max Mines

    You can upload it to various sites like imgur, or you tube.

    The higher ups can still figure it out with out a vid, it just makes it a little easier.


    Thanks
