Only set mines up in triples, walls or ceilings preferred as almost everybody sees them on the ground

Set them in high traffic areas(jump pads) or places that units are likely to pass by to flank.

Any place that is closed in(hallways/tunnels/doors) are good places to lay traps.

Know where people go to repair, also a good place to lay traps.

Set em and forget em. Never ever EVER babysit your traps. Either somebody is going to come and set em off or they wont, Meanwhile you can be walking around slamming rails into peoples heads and making rocketeers cry OP.

Oh, just a point to note: Mines are bugged and will not damage shields at all, don't use them to try to pop shields it is a waste of time and they will normally splash damage back into you.

Good luck with your quest of milking tears from all.

My tip: lay mines ON people, or at their feet if you find it hard to make direct hits.

If you REALLY want to make huge traps, use EOC Pred to set up a trap in a cave/walk area/hallway and have at least a machine gun/rocket  turret near by.  Bait an enemy into following you (pretty hard to do this patch imo as you normally die before you can) and as you boost (must have EOC Repeater for this part) leave trails of the repeater pucks as you lead the enemy to your trap OR lead them straight to the trap and wait for them at the end and finish them off with your Breacher or T-32 Bolt.
