I'm selling a 3* Twisted Spine Cone with the UV - Charge Time Reduction: Very High. At level 10 you'll have a blistering 1.225 second charge time with this puppy without having to wear any bomber armor! It's basically a no knockback, pierce damage (but it does knockdown enemies like gremlins!) nitronome. Very group friendly and one of my favorite bombs for dealing with fiend, beast, and gremlins. I don't think I've spied anyone with a DBB with CTR Vhigh yet so you'll be one of the first on the block! :p

Thanks for the offer guyjin. You're the top offer right now. I want to give other people a chance to see before hastily selling it but I'll let you know by tomorrow.

If you're having difficulties with gremlins, look no further than the DBB. Here is a video of it smoking some gremlins:

Somebody asked me a quesiton

Somebody asked me a quesiton regarding my damage bonuses/armor I was wearing in the videos. Here is my response>>

The DBB I'm using has a UV vhigh dmg to undead. In the videos I'm wearing 1 piece of mad bomber. I think I'm wearing a full set against the wolvers. I think it goes something like this (I could be wrong as I've never completely tested)

solo:
* no uv - devilites 2 shot wolvers/devilites up to D23 (maybe d22)
* +med dmg (mad bomber) - 2 shot devilite/wolvers up to D25
* +vhigh dmg (full mad bomber) - 2 shot devilite/wolvers up to D26
* +ultra? dmg - 2 shot devilite/wolvers to the core

For wolvers the number of bombs is sort of insignificant. You can see in the video that most of the time I drop about 4 bombs which is 2 too many since sometimes you'll miss a couple with your bombs. They get completely immobilized and go in their knockback animation so you're safe to drop as many as you want.

For devilites, the difference between 2 shotting and 3 shotting is less than ~200 damage even without damage bonus at the core. Usually I'll offset this by using a pre-spawn bomb like voltaic tempest or ash of agni to deal passive damage while I'm dropping bombs. While this does mean I'm dropping 3 bombs to clear a room and esentially "3-shotting", slow fuse on the DBB allows me to drop ash/vt and then DBB .. THEN step on the button. Sometimes if you place it right you can do that combo, then drop just one DBB and while you're moving to place the second all the regular devilites will perish from ticks.

Gremlins are similar to wolvers; once you set the chain up it doesn't really matter how much damage you're dealing since you really can't get hit. The idea is to use the long fuse to bait gremlins into getting knocked back then using your 1.3s charge time to set up a second bomb that will knock the knocked down gremlins down again (that sounds awful but I don't know how to word it). This didn't really get good until I was at the end of the 4* line (when I got to level 10) so I'm assuming this is a lot trickier to time with non-maxed ctr bombs.

relieved and disappointed

Kinda relieved i don't have to shell out 10k ce for a total indulgence, but disappointed that i can't rip through wolvers and gremlins even faster.
