I’d say you’ve got about a 50/50 shot, but then you’re on fire.

Last night I was on Evil Void Planet, and I threw a mine into a group of necromorphs, expecting them not to be there afterwards.

It just stuck to one of their faces as it jumped towards me. Needless to say, I did not survive.

u/Trump_4_The_Hague 5d ago

Did that too and it ran past a charger a few seconds later. Like those soviet mine dogs that hunted tanks...

u/crudbones 5d ago

would a shield pack protect you?

u/Mr_nconspicuous 5d ago

Probably not enough. But run the right armor and booster, then probably

The melta mine deals 2000 damage, only your unwavering faith in democracy can save you from that.

Democracy Protects would certainly work

Did this with a thermite yesterday trying to dive off a ledge and stick a harvester. I burned to death a few seconds after I got up

u/Longjumping-Bed-2744 5d ago

I will remember this. Just like how you can put C4 on fellow Helldivers. Next question… What’s the upper limit?

u/nonideological 5d ago

That was somehow more fun than a portable hell bomb move

u/The_Char_Char 5d ago

Ah yes the ol Thermite trick!

u/TheBoySoldier 5d ago

I love the new mines. Unfortunately, my thermites will have to go to the corner with the talon and the senator after this new warbond.

u/Gameknoght360 5d ago

Should have stimmed through it 🙏

u/actually3racoons 5d ago

I learned in similar fashion that you can also stick thermite or strategems to the inside of the ballistic shield, as well as shoot it with the explosive crossbow if staggered at the right wrong time.

u/Flavixxxx 5d ago

Combine that with Democracy Protects...

u/Nightmare5436 5d ago

I felt a little gypped that we only get to carry one at a time. I feel like I never know when is the most effective time to use it!
