[pocrettttt 277]

An idea for a new drone which improvises mines.

It will increase the damage of mines (dropped only with supplies) by 30%(1500*1.3)-150%(1500*2.5)

and increase critical damage chance to 20%(Fixed at all levels)(Optional) + (Optional) Increase Mine hit box radius by 30%

Consumes 4 Mines each use

recharge: 3s

Features: Dont work with dictator overdrive, like booster 

Details: The recharge cant be decreased using others supplies

Trust me. You are proposing such new features that it would be better to make them as new drones instead. Now this is the same case with Trickster. After the update its features were soo much different that many disliked the update. Many purchased Trickster for the benefits it offered prior to the update but now it just boosts your speed. Is it okay with you if I edit this into an idea for a new drone?

Updated the idea into an idea for a new drone.

Ok, you can

It would be simpler to just increase the critical chance of mines placed by Miner to 5%, instead of going through all of that.

agree, why? because it is good as it is now. they can make an other drone making mines do more damge. furthermore, the miner drone here now needs just a faster reload for laying more mines.

I dont know if you are pulling out the idea of dmg increased, but if yes, it will be a lucky game, and everyone most of time forget to use mine, so this 5% will be like brutus, just doing nothing

I am adding this change to the current Miner mechanics and not your suggestion.

If you equip Miner and forget to use mines then why are you equipping Miner in the first place?

yeah, but 5% its very low, and this drone is not used by most of players, so 5% in the increase chance is still weak, 20% and i can tank something, the crit damage is 2666, and that module can reduce this damage by 50%. The objective of saboteur is occupe the max area possible for kill someone, the miner would be an area that can insta kill someone while pass for one mine,

Quite a few casual players use Miner. I didn't set the critical. chance high so that it would not be cancerous to fight against if there are multiple of them in a team. The Devs have the relevant numbers to apply an appropriate critical chance to them.

This drone just keep the mines alive, but whats the point of remain them if one tanker with doble armor just pass trough the mine and receives only 750 damage? saboteur its very superior to him, because drop like 8 mines in a row, its like a joke for miner, it really need to do somethink about this big difference, also all drones have the same cost for max level,and only dropped mines keeps alives, so that augment from magnum didnt do nothing about it. Most of drones always be defender,booster or tickster,crisis because the differente in combat its a lot

Also mammoth is immun to mines in his overdrive, so hey! how  funny, you took 3 minutes to camp your base and he just go passing like "i dont care about your drone,Minesweeper boy"

@pocrettttt Are you fine with the title? Would you want something else to be the title?

Man remember Sam strizhack say "upgrade drones to upgrade supplies" I suppose he didn't consider mines lol

Sounds like a nice Drone and its effects, but it might not be used that efficiently overall.

It's mostly good for Defense, where we can place these more powerful Mines where enemies might come in from.

For Offense though, we might lose and the Mines will disappear, forcing us to replace them, and will consume even more of the Mines!

I believe that Miner keeps the Mines placed even after we get destroyed, right? So that Drone can be used for Offense a little as well. But not this Drone I think.

 

But if it is serving as a Defensive Drone, like Camper and Saboteur, then that's good!

What can be some good names for this Drone? "Land-miner", "Planter", "Bomber", ...?

Tanki usually uses words totally unrelated to what the drones do for their names. Take hyperion for example
