new bomb types

what if there was a bomb type that exploded like a shard bomb but acts like the charge attack of the tortofist. it's meant to catch enemies in the center and then they can't out because it counts as impassable terrain while dealing damage. there should be other variants that cause status effects.

the other is a turret bomb. you place it down and after a longer fuse time than usual bombs it deploys an energy turret (I don't know the stats on those so it might need a buff.) it stays until it is killed or until you place another. (MAYBE it has a frontal shield on it like the trojan because you have to depend on a slow firing turret instead of instant damage so this probably won't be OP)

the last one is the airstrike marker. you place it and after a longer normal fuse time a barrage of rockets land on the target area dealing massive damage but in a smaller radius and with a longer fuse. (simmiler to the consumable airstrike item)

so...

This entire thread is just attempting to make bombs out of features that already exist in in-game items

and? has anyone else suggested them? are they a weapon yet?

and? has anyone else suggested them? are they a weapon yet? has there been any feedback besides people commenting on something besides the point?
just answer if you like them or not. if anything it has a better chance of being added because the code is already there.
stop hating.

ok, if you want to be that upset

I'd give it a solid "not as it stands"

Tortofist copy: essentially just tortofists without a normal attack, and if made in the same shape as shards it would make them even more underpowered

Turret: not really a bomb, and the damage would need to be buffed as all turrets are food at is knockback

Airstrike: if you simply copy an artillery strike item it would be too powerful, damage would need to be nerfed

that's more like it

on other forums there was this certain person (not you XD) that was super sarcastic and I knew it, but alot of my threads started off with him making a snarky remark about it (such as "you mean like the energy turret that's already in the game?") kind of thing.

thanks for the feedback though, I didn't know the actual stats of those things so what I meant in the shape of the shard bomb is that it explodes into a circle as shards (like the shard bomb) and then after a moment it explodes again (like a normal shard bomb) and then it makes the entire area impassible and it deals damage (it would need a buff in damage or duration due to it not being a gun as well.) it's meant as a more reliable or larger trap.

turret: I know it's not a bomb that's why I suggested it :P it would be more of a "bomb like" utility item (and I did mention maybe buffing it)

airstrike: again I didn't know the stats on them I was just suggesting a more damaging bomb in a smaller radius and a longer fuse time.

Bombs that blast one way

We should have some bombs that can only blast at just one direction, but this limited range will be made up for by extreme damage, knockback and/or increased range of the actual lateral blast. This will definitely spice up the battle for bombers who prefer to touch enemies from a farther distance.

Yeah, sort of. Bombs acting as support for gunslingers I guess...
