| Description |
Alright, it's pretty straightforward. First off, you need to obtain some spider mines, and a vehicle, preferably a manta.
Simply launch the spider mines onto the said vehicle, get in, and drive somewhere where lots of people spawn (i.e. enemy node). Not only will the mines stay on your vehicle no matter how crazy your driving is, they'll also promptly leap off and attack anyone you drive by.
It might take some practice to get all 8 mines onto a vehicle, without one bouncing off and hitting you in the face. However, it's great because you can load up the mines pretty quickly with practise, and then forget about them and do what you'd normally be doing with the said vehicle.
The best vehicle to use is the manta, because it has wings, making it easy to place mines/makes it easier for them to jump off, and it's an extremely fast vehicle which allows you to pop in and then escape relatively quickly. You can pretty much put the mines on any vehicle though, here's a list of my recommendations:
Recommended vehicles, in order: (vehicle - reasons)
Manta - easy to put mines on, fast
Hellbender - it'll get close enough simply because of its hp
Scorpion - small target
Do not use these vehicles:
Goliath - too slow, might as well just blast people
Paladin* - again, better uses for it
Raptor - it flies, stupido O_o
Cicada* - i suppose it's possible, but..
SPMA* - not meant for frontal attacks
Again, this isn't the strat that you go out of your way for every time. But if you find yourself with a some spider mines, a decent vehicle, and a couple spare seconds, go ahead. A couple frags can't hurt.
