    for NPC [ONLY] damage .... some mines can be shield damaging and others can be hull damaging .
    some mines can be bought with creds and the higher damaging mines can be bought with uri. They can also be found in the Auction House and in special boxes during Events.
     
  2. Good idea. I can think of a ton of good uses for these.

    It would be fun for the noobs to learn how to use mines in PVP just not these type of mines . Great for Gates especially in the LoW gate or special events ie. the Demanar , Hitac , ToT. These items wouldn't be a consumable item for the Assembly Items and would be great as a deterrent for botters because they can be coded to detect script users collecting in the maps. They already have the JOB-100 Laser ammo so some mines to compliment the lasers. These type of ideas leads to
    1: Special Rockets for NPC
    2: Special CPU's for the Rockets
    3: Special NPC Rocket Launchers
    4: Special CPU's for the Mines
    5: Special Boosters for NPC Rocket Launchers and NPC Turbo mines ... etc.
    but any Honor / Exp gains would still be the same rewards

    We don't need any more mines, we need the game to be fixed before adding new content.

    So true Aries , this is just an Idea that I hoped would involve the Noob community and Veteran players to bring back and generate a newness and interest to the game again like once You and I had :)

    Yea, Emperor Sibelon dropping Slow Mines would be a nice experience. :p

  8. It's not necessary. Unfortunately, I really doubt they are going to consider doing this. I mean, why do something like this when you can release more useless cosmetics?

    It's called more revenue / aka , income , Bling Bling , or better known as money $$$$ for DO. It also creates other styles of gameplay to assist the newer members / noobs. Heck if I had my way we should be allowed to keep our Flax drones and be able to switch Drone Designs. DO is stagnated in creativity.

    First to fix anything normally requires something new be done / added. It's also amazing how many find fault with something and scream fix it without a single idea!

    What is and is not necessary in this game was NEVER your call. What may or may not happen or be considered was NEVER yours to announce. Also I would not be surprised, as I know it has happened twice before, after shooting down this post you go off and try to make something like it as your idea!
     
  12. I like the idea, because the NPC rewards are already low for F2Players. I accept all additional resources for damage.

    However the mine damage should be still devastating (perhaps percentage damage) ? A mine mechanic against NPCs would give more "variety" in the boring life of an NPC farmer.

    Being an NPC Farmer such as I did when I first started has not been Boring but costly yet effectively entertaining. Having to fight and scrimp for everything I gathered and your clan leader/s haven't the time to assist you was quite frustrating for "beginners". To even try nowadays being a beginner is mind boggling , it was for me back when I started 9 yrs ago. With some ingenuity and a few good other free to play users we would meet up and work as a team for our quests and with our all out gun-ho attitudes we would endlessly pound our targets with relentless precision and resolve. Bottom line here is that we became friends after yrs of dedicated persistence and alot of trials and tribulations we discovered it was better to help another to become the best they can be than discouraging another. My forum user name here is a tribute to the clan [ODIN] on the server in which my Main account plays on not the clan I own today. I found [ODIN] clan by mistake. In my clan search I had my favorite player from an RPG game that I played called Final Fantasy 8 and Odin was a side-quest in order to receive the special reward that only Odin possessed which was a special skill called Gilgamesh. This skill was a Random Chance Skill and it's damage was complete annihilation of all your npc enemies within a certain range . When you mentioned [A mine mechanic against NPC] that brought back the above 'Flashback' concerning this thread about Mines ... Let's call the mine the Gilgamesh Effect Mine and is upgrade-able via credits , can be used in Assembly , works on regular maps and regular gate npc. Hades and Quarantine Gates the Gilgamesh Effect Mine will not work.
