I've seen some suggestions about making shields that cater to gunners and bombers. So, bombers, I'd like to ask: what kind of bomb stat buff shield would you guys want? I'm asking because I know it's possible to get CTR max and DMG max with gear alone (Mad Bomber set plus one Elite Boom Module).

Bomb fuse reduction. Would help the other BB lines.

Bomb damage as well as not all of use would opt for Mad Bomber and Be able to bother to get trinkets.

A shield that only bumps enemies a short distance away, making drop bomb->shield less counterproductive.

I'm kinda iffy about this one. I actually tend to use shield bumping if im surrounded by a swarm in an arena or something (lag spikes do that to you.).

I still use shield bumping,

I still use shield bumping, just rarely. So i wouldn't want it gone. Fuse reduction doesn't exist, and it's the one thing i was was there! It would be great, our version of "increased attack speed."

Bouncy shield

What about a shield that when you shield bumped, bounced you away rather than the enemy? Sure, you could get locked into corners, but it would be much more offensively useful to be able to drop a bomb and ricochet yourself away, leaving the enemy with an explosive present :3

A MSI shield would do since

A MSI shield would do since bombers doesn't have ASI due it's all depends on CTR which makes easyer to cap compare other classes and so giving them movement speed increase shield would be best possible option.

A riot shield, the same size

A riot shield, the same size as the shields from the plate line. No knockback, High Health with Moderate Normal and Elemental defence.

No additive stats, or maybe Bomb Damage/Movement Speed.
