  Any specific mines or all mines? I've reported the same for tricobalt with regard to both DMG and PEN.

  I knew using Kinetics would be playing the game on hard mode, but what I didn't realize was how bad the deck is stacked against Kinetics.

  Fleet Mines MK XII DMGx3, of all types, are the same damage as any MK XII Mine.

  Yea, someone hates mines and TriC's. Go figure.

  On the other hand, it should get full benefit from accuracy overflow...
  
  I mean, I doubt that's actually happening, but it'd be nice to think so! :P

  SCM - Crystal C. (S) - [00:12] DMG(DPS) - @jarvisandalfred: 8.63M(713.16K) - Fed Sci

  I always wondered do auto hit weapons that cannot miss get accuracy overflow?

  If a weapon cannot miss then it does not even calculate Hit/Miss, and therefore can't benefit from Acc Overflow.
  
  +Dmg should be working to increase the impact of mines, though. Pretty sure I tested that myself at some point.
  
  Sounds like our Mine tables need a thorough review.

  While you are at it, check [Radius] for crafted mines as it is currently impossible to create. Please rethink the [Ac/Dm] at epic (maybe swap to [CrtH/Dmg]).

  I think you also need to review how many people even bother with mines compared to torps and energy weapons... But one step at a time.
