This thread is to describe memorable events that occurred while bombing; loadouts; techniques; Lockdown matches with bombing; encouragement, food for thought; cool info nobody knew; lore, stories... you get my point.
This is a hub for bombers to talk to each other. Sword and handgun talk is allowed, but focus bombing as our main priority.
Sometimes when I'm lagging really badly, I place a bomb and it doesn't go boom. D:
Bombs are my favorite kind of weapon! Unfortunately, they are the weapons I am most unskilled at...
This simple thread has encouraged me to bomb everything! Even when my 3 crying and dieing team mates beg me to stop Nitro spamming, I MUST CONTINUE! For the bombers!
As for a more sincere post, does anyone else like to Shard Bomb? I've been thinking about getting the red one. (Forgot it's name. Crimsonite Bomb thingy, I'll check it later). Also, how valuable is a CTR High on level 10 Radiant Sun Shards? It's the closest thing to "Bamzalot" I've gotten to so far.
Hey Bamzalot! I'd say the red shard bomb is normal damage. Shard bomb is fun, but the previous style was more fun in my opinion. CTR high is fine!
In other news, my favorite bomb is the mist bombs. They're fun because of PvP. Seeing those skolver clones/chaos clones fall to status effects is so exhilarating!
The new shard bombs are significantly easier to use than the old ones, but also offer a bit less depth and a lot less potential. Both are relatively counter intuitive weapons to most.
The red shard bomb = deadly shard bomb.
Upon heating for a loadout that includes the path to my deadly shard bomb, I have come to appreciate bombing a lot more.
For the most I have always come to appreciate those bombers who would put themselves in and out of danger with little chance of protection for themselves. The effectiveness of skilled bombers (those who use the best discretion in particular moments) have often if not always been a contributory factor toward the effectiveness of slaying opponents and overall survival.
And while the Nitronome was one of the first five star bombs, running solely with bombs makes me more appreciative of it.
Shard & Nitro (since I love normal damage). And soon my Iron Tech Destroyer once I can max it.
However, there is one question I have when pertaining to two bombs. How and or why are both the haze bomb and the toxic vaporizer considered elemental weapons? O_o
Wait what? Arelic... You're making an Iron Tech Destroyer? I think the point of going down that alchemy line is to stop at the 4*, due to the fact that you have 5* blast radius at 4* range, and you don't need to spend Radiants and shit. Mayhap have lower dps and stuff, but dat range at 4*. 5* is just a buff in damage. If you have tons of Radiants and money to spare, sure... whatever floats your boat... I'd probably spend those on a BAB instead.
In LD I used to run Venom Veiler as a Guardian. With the total of CTR high(lvl 10 CTR and Guardian's CTR), you can place a bomb, and heal a tick or two, then place another bomb. If you healed one tick before placing the other bomb, the next bomb would appear after the first had disappeared. If you healed two ticks, there's a bit of delay and vulnerability. But... I don't quite remember how this went because I haven't played in months... because... meh.
Regarding shards...
IIRC Zeddy ran tests on Shard invincitinks. For optimum CTR at max spam rate, a CTR low UV + lvl 10 CTR(CTR high) makes it impossible to have invincitinks. Otherwise (with higher CTR), just be sure not to spam too quickly.
and stuff...
BAB spam for beast and slime compounds as well as mecha knights and wolvers. I usually try to place a shard bomb on top of a previous bomb's secondary shard (one of the 6 or 8 that come off). Shard bombs work surprisingly well in OCH where it can knock down enemies and get behind mortafires, not to mention rendering stalkers nearly ineffective. (I used the shocking salt bomb for this mission)
I would dare say my Voltaic Tempest is absolutely premoditary. Observing recent prognostic recessions lead me to believe Voltaic Tempest serves 'twixt robotic and jellie species in fravelunt discernity. Seeing my observations are correct, I can umersinate my prygdetheletationatary cadom.
