Just posting here to let you editors know that this bombing guide page has been made, and i didn't wan't know trouble. Steelfoot and seawad seem to be on the content editing and formatting. Also looking for contributors, but for the beggining the content will mostly be edited content from the elite bombing thread, bomb balance issues and a few other sources. Yeah its a matter of opinion page, but i just thought it would be nice to have the stuff on a page instead of a thread in which things become out of date etc. +more people scan the wiki instead of the forums.

Finally if there's any of you who feel the need to post strategies ideas etc for the guide, yet don't know how wiki stuff works, just post it here =p

There should be a section

There should be a section about the armors and helmets that help make bombs better like the Spiral Demo set.

This guide is pretty incredible Maybe we can get some guides in other specializations as well.

This guide seriously needs a good editor to remove remove all the lolspeak and establish a more objective tone with balanced and informative insight. Some of the tactics provided are plain garbage especially the one that advocates suicide when your team is "demoralized". Yeah, that'll pep them right up.

The best guides I've read are

The best guides I've read are one that a reader can relate with, removing all that talk will make it bland and hard to understand with limited explanation. I'm not sure if you've played the level with the toxilargo, but it helps a great deal to freeze it so it doesn't run rampant in the limited area you have to fight it. Sure if your an end game player, the tactics will hardly apply to you due to the buffs and acquired knowledge, that's fine; don't read it.

If you feel you need to translate the whole guide into what you feel it needs; go ahead. I am not one to say what others like in a guide, but i prefer it the way it is.

I will probably be changing

I will probably be changing the bomb section then, if I have your permission, to give a concise list of pros and cons for each bomb, possibly in table form.

The worst offenders are currently the Voltaic tempest and Venom Veiler that provided no information about their specific benefits and defects. That might appeal to you, but I don't know.

always glad to have another member working on the page.

The word change is the only thing i have problems with. It might be beneficial to both parties if you add the table(whatever you are planning on doing) at the end of each paragraph about bombs. Removing any info already there will probably just end up with it being put back to where it was originally by me, as a people have put considerable amounts of time into thinking out these things and physically typing them; denying there input isn't something i agree with unless its misleading info or plain unnecessary.

As for VT and VV, i have neither, and no one seems to want to write anything about them. The guide itself is still in construction/early stages, and I only edit it if i feel i have time to do, or if i can keep my attention span steady; thus some of the content is half there or non-existent. Remember this community is relatively small to that of who play the game. Wiki editors are an even smaller minority then forum posters but the ones who browse the wiki is the majority of in game users so.... it needs to appeal to everyone.

As for now just add what ever you want, and limit changing any content (changes to grammar, spelling etc is always welcome.) Really, if there's something that deeply annoys you, post what it is and possible solutions in the discussion page; then we can work around it ;p.

Added a description for VT

Added a description for VT and VV, based on the discussions on the forums and my personal use.

The guide can use some grammatical consistency, I have a log of free time tomorrow, might take a stab at it.
