I think it would be cool to have a new bomb, that summons spikes, they are like normal spikes you could step on, only these ones damage MONSTERS instead of YOU. I know, it is getting to sound very much like the Snarbolax's bomb, but I still think it would be cool, and I was thinking it could deliver poison damage. It would disappear like other spikes, they would retract into their sockets, and vanish.
I would not be surprised to see "That's lame" comments, and if you do post "That's lame" comments, please do it politely. But, if you instead have suggestions to make it BETTER, please post. Also, if I did not make myself clear enough, please tell me.
Bomb!

Technical Help: You can edit posts and add whatever you need. No need to be the first to reply to your own thread, just for you to keep a good image.
First Bomb: You are making it sound like a Mist Bomb that causes consistent damage. It seems like it is too powerful and would be the dominant bomb in use. Heck, watch it be overused in Vanaduke. I suggest it being nerfed. Perhaps we could make it similar to the Tortofist's charge attack, except with more spikes that could be smaller and have a hit-limit before they cannot deal damage to the monster (like, three hits before temporary immunity).

Second Bomb: Seems very familiar... Uh... Perhaps the Obsidian Crusher? In all honesty, I do not see the need for another bomb that draws in enemies and spews them out that would cause Poison.

hmmm
1st: Sounds decent, like a viable AOE bomb with damage in the range of the DR (Dark Retribution). Poison might be a bit over the top but if it is kept weak enough it could work.
2nd: I like the idea of something coming out of the ground to attack monsters but we have a shadow/poison trap bomb. I would rather have something more along the lines of an elemental version of the DBB (Dark Briar Barrage). Rather than a dragon why not a "Drakon".

AOE...
Do you mean AOE Age of Empires?... But, anyway, it would look a little weird to have a Drakon head poking out of the ground? Actually, that sounds pretty awesome... And, I was thinking the Spike Bomb would be fast. Maybe the Drakon head would do fire instead.

@Hexzyle
Oh, OK, thanks. I was thinking, why would a dragon bursting out of the ground be related to Age of Empires?!

nice
I like both bombs. First bomb feels like a trap bomb, technically mist sort of bomb, and second seems like a tornado sort of bomb, basically dark retribution plus obsidian crusher. As long as the damage is balanced, then they can both work.

Thanks!
Thank you, Blandaxt. Though, the problem with the Summoners Artefact is, what would happen if monsters tried going in it while it was still up in the air? would they just not be able to go in?

Any more?
Does anyone have more ideas for the bombs? Suggestions? Also, @Rhons, I don't think the first bomb is quite like the Grand Tortofist. It wasn't quite what I was imagining...

hmm
I think the where the huge mouth of the dragon is summoned all the monsters would be inside its belly, then the dragon would jump in the air like a dolphin and do a somersault and comeback down hitting whatever monster is in its way as it goes back under the earth. Then after it goes back under, the monsters that were swallowed will be launched from under the ground if they survived. I recommend removing any sort of status sense this is a damage oriented weapon. I don't see this weapon working well with bosses/large monsters though, so i suggest that it creates a sand tornado that hits any enemies nearby for damage.
I also have another idea for a bomb. It is 5* and called "The Summoner's Artefact." It is a bomb that, when you explode it, it makes a giant worm-dragon-like head burst out of the ground and it swallows the bad guys it hits. As it goes back underground, it spews the swallowed monsters out, and it deals a very hight amount of damage. It has a strong chance of causing poison, if the creatures survive. It is about as good as other 5* bombs, except this one deals poison. I would greatly appreciate feedback!!
