3 Some players were suggesting that badgers are bad vs shields because the claw mines didn't explode and the bomblets could be killed by outlaws. 3 Some players were suggesting that badgers are bad vs shields because the claw mines didn't explode and the bomblets could be killed by outlaws.

5 I retorted that mines instantly explode for the full damage of all the bomblets if they collide against shields before touching ground. I knew I had read that somewhere and from what I've seen, that's still how the game works so here's a wiki quote from the [url=http://zero-k.info/mediawiki/index.php?title=Shield]shield page[/url]: 5 I retorted that mines instantly explode for the full damage of all the bomblets if they collide against shields before touching ground.

11 I also said that it is possible to kill the claw mines, but I don't think the bomblets can be killed. In other words you can potentially reveal and kill claw mines, but if they trigger they always deal damage. The wiki for the [url=http://zero-k.info/mediawiki/index.php?title=Claw]claw mine[/url] doesn't list an HP value for the bomblets. 11 I also said that it is possible to kill the claw mines, but I don't think the bomblets can be killed.

15 Also, somebody suggested that claw mines cost energy (because of the cloak?). I don't think they do.
