proxy nerf idea

(Xeon1) #1

So i was in a lot of situations where i would fight proxy and (in a middle of a fight/before she dies) she throws her mine and when that happens i basically finish her, but then the mine arms itself and i have no way of escape. (I know there is a perk that slows down the explosion ,but still.) So i think proxy shouldn’t be able to spam them when she wants to…
So i have 3 ideas:

  1. give more time before explosion to let that person get behind cover
  2. Reduce the range
  3. Reduce mine amount/increase cooldown

giving the mine more time to trigger is just stupid. i’d give proxy one instead of 2 nuclear pancakes. maybe increaes the damage a little

do you know mine arm time is also enough time for you to backpedal twice the AoE range of the explosion?

oh of course you dont.

a little tip, if a proxy throw you a mine, take a step back.
it would kill the proxy if you shoot the mine before the proxy could shoot it.
