But I don't know which ones to exactly use.
Generally I just use a penta and a true love locket for that extra health because ''Recon bombers die. Quickly''

Being a hybrid bomber (with sword) I try to easily take out opponents using swiftness (but I don't want ASI trinks) so should I rather substitute one of my heart pendants for a Ultra Slasher trink for the Sword Damae Bonus High or keep with my 2 heart trinks?

P.S
1. Thought I'm part bomber, I use my sword more often while using my bomb to fortify points.
2. Are bomb damage bonus trinkets good with mist bombs? Or is it just a waste of a trinket slot?
3. What trinkets are recommended for fighting 4 players at the same time?

"Recon bombers die. Quickly"... Hmm no.
I have proven this to be false. Take my word or not, if I were to ever film anything my computer would go kaput.

Heart Pendants are all around +'s with every class.

1. Thought I'm part bomber, I use my sword more often while using my bomb to fortify points.
IMO, bombers + one sword = good cappers; damage should not be of much of a prize for you, compared to the amount of caps.

2. Are bomb damage bonus trinkets good with mist bombs? Or is it just a waste of a trinket slot?
No, it's a waste. Health would be more beneficial. (CTR if you like being a suicide bomber )

Err trinkets?

Salt tastes gr8

Although I don't play Tier 3 Lockdown, I can tell you bomb damage bonus trinkets with mist bombs is not a good idea. The bomb was made to inflict status.

What sword/bomb are you using?

If you only use haze bombs

If you only use haze bombs then you can pretty much use whatever armour you want and still have max ctr, so why not use a snarby/bkc setup? If you want to focus on survival then i would stick with dual pentas but i can see a snarby + elite sword damage trinket being very powerful too for assassinations.

Guardian? ASI.

Unfortunately, it's a waste for mist bombs. Their blast radius is like, 1 tile from the center.

ASI, Damage, Health.

Damage means you'll need less hits to take them out, though you need to make sure you hit.

Health means you'll take more hits. It sounds nice, but if you hit like a sock or move like a snail, it only means you'll feed more damage to your killer.

ASI means you can shield earlier after an attack, whatever your shield may be (cloak, guard, boost), which means you have better movement potential and spend less time being stuck. Of all of these, ASI can affect your potential the most, since it actually affects your potential moves. If you can play consistently with the safety of higher ASI, then hitting lower damage just means you need to do 1-2 more hits.
