Fun fact with AT mines unrelated to the video... Uhh dont walk over them while carrying a SEAF artillery shell. You can actually trigger them that way. Someone i was watching play had their friend find that out the hard way.
“I’m going to throw down the lines to test how good they are. But first, let me kill all the enemies that might trigger them, so we’ll actually have no idea what the mines can do.” So crazy to watch
When I started playing, as a solodiver against bugs on 4 or 5, I took the normal mines for a while. The planet was a grey moon-surface like thing with meteor showers, so they were very visible. When pursued by bugs I would often retreat through my minefield, avoiding stepping on them (and succeeding most of the time).
Mines seem to require a lot of distance and a choke point. Fighting enemies in the mine field seems to detonate so many mines due to bullets and explosions! And the choke point because the mines don't cover nearly as much area as a turret or artillery barrage. I think you identified the problem, it's very situational and you get few stratagems. Might be another that's better against bots, since factory striders have bigger and more vulnerable feet, but you'd have to be patient and lure them through a choke, and they certainly seems slower than chargers.
I just had an idea for my new loadout combo. Tesla tower and AT mines to protect it! Might as well use the fact that the tower is a god dam charger magnet! And the spear plus precision strike to take out the bile Titans. I DON'T CARE HOW BETTER THE RR IS THAN THE SPEAR! I AM A GIGACHAD WHEN I USE IT LET ME COPE!
Agree im a god with spear. Just took out 9 autom fabs. In 9 min running cross the map with light armor i dont care about RR because of range and accuracy. Btw the sentries are all charger magnets. They will always prioritize ur sentries infront of you. Dont matter if its tesla tower or wichever one ur using
@@spiritualviking8094You can do that faster and more accurately with the RR. Just harder, but after a few hours of playing you'll be loving how much more ammo and how much more control over your shots you have, Spear targeting Scout Striders is nonsensical as hell and should be removed.
@@basedcringe9000 ur comment is based in me not having experience. Bro i got 500 hours in game. Ive gotten to know every single loadout, tried all combos. I know the differences of weapons and im saying spear is my choice. Funny how yall gamers in youtube comment section are trying to convince people that ur the guy with the sickest loadouts and people should listen to you and do like you to become pro. 😂
That's a combo I use constantly on bug defence missions, with a twist Napalm mines, then throw the tesla orbital on the final second. Some softeners like support autocannon/rocket turrets will help, but they can set off the mines, I recommend a gatler or mounted hmg to support
It's still look useless. Other stratagems are just going to set it off, there is a chance that a charger might not set it off, and it's completely useless against bile titan
The Bile Titans simply don't seem to step on them because their legs are too thin

ouch...i hope the seaf shell doesn't get flung too far i guess?
Oh god I hope this works , I'm testing it with my homies later

Spear is good and all but when you get good with the RR it's miles better.

@@spiritualviking8094 500 hrs? that's cute, i just passed 800 hrs lol. and the RR is way better than the spear.
The mines are best used with turrets.
A turret in a mine field is protected against chargers.
dude started showing off his flicks at the 6 minute mark 😭 clean tho
12:15 bars 🔥
I seen this in the stream, but it's entertaining at the second time too.
Idea: Throw down AT mines. Throw down tesla tower immediately on top of it. Charger will no longer kill it. Probably. Maybe.

@@MrHocotateFreight the f is the tesla orbital, you trog? There IS no tesla orbital. this frickin guy
I want to like the arc thrower but I still see that it sometimes doesn't shoot at the enemies if a little piece of their body is behind a rock.
The reduced aoe is probably to make them act more like a shape charge
AT mines are only for the Defend Valuable Assets mission tbh. It's amazing there though.
Do you stream only UA-cam or are you on twitch as well? Would love to follow if you’re on twitch
Option to detonate land mines remotely would also be good
I honestly don't use any mines but they do look like they do alot of dmg!
Idk man. I've seen a bile titan die without anyone shooting at it, but the mines went off.
Would You recomend the arc thrower over the blitzer?
Using the Arc thrower was a bad idea for this test
I work backwards on the pipeline puzzles. Seems to click faster for me that way.
I'd love to use mines more but the because they trigger from players it's just too dangerous.
Wait, there's a terminal at the illegal broadcast?
THAT'S A LOTTA DAMAGE!
Pog
It's still look useless. Other stratagems are just going to set it off, there is a chance that a charger might not set it off, and it's completely useless against bile titan
Would it be possible to play with you?
When every I'm live streaming I usally have open lobbies :)
Do you have a play schedule? How can we get into your lobby? Thanks in advance
i take only mines every game
No,it still sucks.
Theres alot of chargers from time to time so AT mines are good choice on high difficulty due to more chargers.
like your channel mate good job sub up:)
