Anyone else use Seeker mines?

[PocketYoda]

Mine have well stopped working since the last patch, i throw it, it then explodes instantly and does zero damage to anyone in the area of effect..

I'm using the divide seeker mine that suppose to follow each enemy and hit them, it does absolutely nothing anymore.

I think they're pretty useless. 9 times out of 10 they explode too early and the enemy gets out of the blast zone. I'd rather use sticky bomb that stuns for pve.

They are susceptible to lag more than a turret due to the delay between triggering and detonation. I feel you.

Literally 30 minutes ago, I had a random team for Challenging Lincoln Tunnel mission. All of them (3) were using seeker mines. God they sucked..... when I went afk for 30 seconds, they all died. Probably I just met noobs, but when I saw their DZ levels they were 45+, so.....

Before the last patch they worked fine for me now they don't work at all.

Even before the patch I think they where pretty terrible, but I also think that they are now even worse.

Even when the enemies are in the red circle now they take no damage with divide seeker mines.

Yeah...

using em with the fire upgrade works for me, they fixed with last patch that they would explode and wont hit the enemy, now they do.

but tbh its more for crowd control not for damage.

For me they have actually done the opposite now they don't work at all, try the divide up seeker mines and let me know if they work.

they worked, just tested em, but they suck with crowd control and damage

I think the only good thing about Seeker mines is crowd control effects on the gas version.

^ gas ball is best ball

Weird the divide seeker mine is totally busted for me now.. last patch no issues.

What exactly is ya'lls skill level? IF you don't spend any points into SKILL they can suck. THey have little to no HP and can be destroyed and do little damage. I have no issues using them for CC in missions along with my sticky EMP. But I keep about 20K+ in skill points too.

There was a bug that this was happening to some, but thought they fixed it with the patch. Never had the issue myself. Though I admit some missions I won't bring them or tell folks not to bring the turrets cause they will be hacked and do more damage than good to us and not the NPC's.

For me they are bugged, they do no damage at all, i throw it, it makes a red circle, explodes instantly and the enemies health doesn't go down, all they do is warn the enemies i'm there..

Since the last patch or since i unlocked my wing, not sure which they just no longer work at all.. Only the divide version the standard still works i tested it..

got 45k skillpower, afaik thats the cap for tech stuff. the first one does not enough damage to hold against the sticky mine(for pvp, for pve i would use the blind sticky or gas). fire and gas is okay(pvp the fire mine is n1, pve it stop npcs for a few seconds, havent used gas much, but they do a better job at crowd control), last one seems useless to me.

but tbh i think nothing comes damage wise against stacking smart cover with a pulse(seriously that crap is just plain stupid), so i suggest u use em for crowd control only.

edit: speaking for pvp and pve challenging damagewise, think on normal they should suffice...;)
