Ok it takes 5 mines to kill a full health hottie/tech right? And its 6 to kill a 1000 credit character? Am I wrong about this? It's kinda dumb that didn't know this exactly for this long, but I wanted to be sure, I'v been mining with 6 per door.

Roughly correct, but there are ways to reduce the damage you take from proximity C4.

*looks at Aircraftkiller's post* pfft.
Anyways yeah that's correct 5 mines will kill virtually any non $1000 infantry. Granted that the mining pattern you used is effective.
When history witnesses a great change, Razgriz reveals itself,
First as a dark demon,
As a demon it uses its power to reign death upon the land;
and then it dies.
However, after a period of slumber, Razgriz returns.
This time as a great hero...

The mining pattern isn't relevant as long as you space each mine out a little, without taking into account burn damage you sometimes receive. I frequently get past 6 mines as a hotwire or technician and am left with very low health, maybe 30 HP. I don't know, I just run into them and fall back to try and avoid damage. Tripping them from behind walls gives you hardly any damage, but they aren't always set close enough for you to do this.

I usually try to spread them out and to make sure they are as far back as possible, but it can get difficult as placing too far the enemy can get around 1 or 2 mines.

2 just inside the door, then 3 behind them. I usually find that works well enough because no noob with a 1000 character is going to risk blowing themself up, and anyone who will walk through usually has backup anyway..
No flashy signature..

Remember, the old 3 SBH trick gets past 6 mines easily by the SBH taking turns to trip them. This gives each SBH minimal damage.

hmm u can minimise dmg, instead of standing near the mines, try to go near the wall, the mines would detonate inside, hurting u a little.
I only do that when obi is mined, but for agt... i would throw remote c4 inside... then i rush in... i would die of coz, but.. some how 90% of the time no1 would see my c4... and it can kill a bunch of ppl hiding inside... ^^ try it!
