I could find nothing in the Codex or Help sections... so I throw it at you guys.

I need to use a certain number of armours to reach certain goals. That's simple enough. What I'm not sure on is; how do I use them up?

Yes, I can turn the armour on and off, but that doesn't seem to be using it up (should it?). Is there a certain number of mines I have to throw myself at in order to 'break' my armour?

I believe it's 3 mines to destroy 1 armor.

Well, I think I just disproved that one. It's very cheeky, leaving mines on other people's mission paths... lol, at least I WANT to be hitting mines.

Well, I've hit 4 mines so far, and still on the same armour.

Stalk the events page. http://pmog.com/events
When you see a mine get deployed, click the link and hope you got to it first. Just remember that other people are doing the same thing. Don't expect to find all the mines. Other Bedouins, like myself are also looking for those mines. :D

Thanks for the tip. I was trying that last night, to no avail... just not quick enough >_<

Maybe some nice destroyers will see this and litter my profile with bombs... lol

Would you like some friendly mines? I'm willing to oblige... I'll even provide you with armor (what a nice Bedouin I am!).

For the record, I think I've been getting an armor credit for every mine I foil, not for every piece of armor that I actually use up.

OH! Yes, I think that must be it, lapsura! I couldn't work out why my "armour used" was so high, since I've been more or less counting what I use up. And because after plaguing the life out of some willing IRCers, I confirmed that gifting armour to someone else doesn't affect stats (duh!), nor does littering their profile with mines (I called it an Experiment, tee hee) -- on the "armour is used, even if not by me" theory.

Hehe, that's awesome, green. "No no, you're just participating in my Experiment!"

Yeah, I can't explain in any other way why I have more than a thousand armor credits.

Shard bounces on mines...

Thanks lapsura, this is hilarious. Blowing myself up shouldn't be so much fun.

OKay, I just hit nine mines in a row and no armour breakage. I've counted three hits for breaking armour quite often as well as five. I guess it must be random...

*bang*

Oh, and thanks also to green :)

I have been playing with my armor too. I was slightly disappointed to note that when I used it up there was not an immediate addition to my tools used column, but my fingers are crossed that it will show up in about 30 minutes.
