How do you use mines? They are part of the launcher group.

I think they are only useable to create lag, so ask any pirate.

Normally you would load the mines into a missile launcher, and just 'launch' them as you move along... however mine volume was never changed when missile and launcher balancing was first started, so the only launcher that can fit mines at the moment is a Siege-type launcher.
Ah, i remember laying out a nice big minefield in my Stiletto in the beta (not the elite minmatar stilleto, a pirate frig model) and screenshotting the mines and a witty comment that i sent to Pann

okay you said it: I remember when tghe old-NVA were using hundreds of mines at the jip in venal when we came up. But then a nice GM came and changed the jip and you guys got fooled by a gm hehehe.
So NVA = pirates according to you.

I¦m a new member to Celest so this must have happened before I joined. That doesn¦t really matter though because this was a joke. I¦m also relatively new to pvp but according to what people have told me then the only way to kill anyone was by creating enough lag so you could have the ship long enough to warpscramble it. So I can certainly understand why people used this tactic.
These days are behind us though and those cheap tactics gone (I hope)

Mines should either be removed from the game or have their damage made alot more so it can be used in combat.
But I would prefer mines removed from the game, we have enough lag as it is without such petty modules.

Mines might get more use once POS are introduced. As I see it mines are more of a defencive weapon any way. |
