There are 3 types of mines, XG, DRX, and Anti-vehicular.


Do the A-V mines actually mangle vehicles?


And are DRX better than XG?


My XG mine's damage is 677, I believe.

if you look at the ingredients for Anti-Vehicle and DRX they are Exactly the same so i'm guessing that Anti-Vehicle will blow up vehicles and DRX will blow up players (also states this at bottom of description on the mines) ...but have not personally tried them cause i'm sure that if you drove a swoop accross a DRX field you would feel the pain hehe (not 100% on this ) unless of course the game can determine what has breached the mine field a vehicle or a player and then determine whether to explode a mine or not ....as far as DRX's go, mine are about 150-200pts less than my XG mines but i can experiment up to 90% or so on XG's (use generic resources) and only up to around 65% on DRX's ( use some specific resources) but here is the catch, DRX mines are Heavy armor piercing and XG's are only light armor piercing... so I'm sure the DRX would do some painful damage even though it is less in max dmg than the XG ...i do not have the armor to piercing ratio handy or i would list some numbers here ...hope this helps a little

AV mines are a waste unless you throw some powerups on them and the only time they really work is when someone whos bike is like 1/2 health run over the field.................but I have seen them work..............
