i don't think eoc sucked 5 months ago when it had 210 damage(or was it even more_),  after that 2 second mine buff people started wining just because they was it more often

I'm sure he was referring to the time the EOC mines had horrible prox detonation to the point where you could step on it and it wouldn't go off making you need direct hits and the heat gen was so monstrous that after a few shots you were overheated.
didn't know about this stuff, at that time i was just finishing my crt :)

Hi, just thought I would add my opinion to this heated debate. I am new to the game only played for about a week but have put plenty of hours into the game. I feel that the EOC is overpowered. Even if the target is missed directly either myself or a team mate will either dodge into the mine at some point during the fight. A lot of the time the game is fast paced short to medium range which is good for EOC players. Not complaining largely about the weapon as in games there will always be more good/bad weapons. This is the weapon that kills me most and the only one I feel is overpowered.

Just shift it to a true area denial weapon, not a direct engagement weapon

1. Direct hits do no mine damage

2. Mines take 0.5-1 second to arm after hitting a surface (so you can't just shoot it at their feet)

If this makes the EOC underpowered, than buff the mine damage.

Direct hits are causing the rukus. Mines do nothing...

You kidding me_ The EOC USED to be overpowered, but since they nerfed it a while ago, its pretty well balanced in terms of damage and speed. Its not a fast weapon and requires much practice in order to be effective in high-clutch scenarios, especially against skilled pilots.

Overpowered or not, I think there is a consensus about the function and the role of the EOC. But I highly doubt its actual role is what we expect from it. I don't think many EOC users take it for the mine laying aspect.
There is a silence from many well known players since a few days. I hope it is because they are in the AB and can't ease our concerns, due to some NDA. :(

AJK is wrong

The EOC is balanced. The Detonator is OP.
