Thank you for being one of the better bombers in LD. By layering your bombs in a triple Venn-diagram you have won my respect and gratitude for "shocklocking" everyone that is stupid enough to stand on your CP. Congrats for being such a great bomber, and thank you so much for not being pure. That DA to the face sure did hurt when I was shocklocked.

Just to let everyone know, this is not sarcasm and I encourage everyone to lay their bombs in a triple Venn-Diagram so that everyone who sees it may abandon all hope or never move again.

I salute you, and you deserve this thread of ego stroking.

I only pray they never release a sleep bomb.

..really? I understand that Bigfootm is a good player and that he deserves respect, but a whole thread dedicated to how "great" he is?

@Rangerwill

But, eh. A Compliment's a Compliment. Just gotta see what Bigfoot has to say.

And the threads about Chris...

Chris has 5 threads. Isn't it right that Bigfootm gets one?

I don't get why people

I don't get why people doesn't like this thread. It's just one player tipping his hat to another in recognition; a gesture.

I for one cherish the few positive and uplifting threads made in this sea of trolls and compaints.

I don't believe that everyone deserves a thread, and I'm not a jerk.
I just wonder if you're as bright as you think you are.
I wonder for a reason.

Hey hey, guys. Calm down.

Neodasus didn't make this thread just to praise Bigfootm.
He's sharing good advice with other players.

Oh, I see now, you meant the actual adding of the in the game would be stupid.

How would you?

I can't figure out how you can have the clouds of three mist bombs be active at the same time.

The charge time for the mist bombs seems to be set so that without UV they all charge up in the time it takes for the mist from the last bomb to dissipate...

Wait, do you even call them Mist Bombs? Err... Smoke bombs? Haze bombs? Gasfields?

"Mist" or "Status" bombs is

"Mist" or "Status" bombs is generally the name used. Some people still call them "Haze" although since they're now seperate alchemy paths it's a bit silly.

Also when we say triple venn diagram, exactly what sort of layout are we talking? How far spread out, triangular or in a chain or what?

Google "trefoil" or "triquetra" to know what he's saying about Venn diagrams.

Also, you can have 2 fields down at once at high CTR. I assume you can have 3 at max, though I wouldn't know.

-_-

It must have been like this

Of course, even with MAX CTR the best you can do is have 2 status clouds on, with the 3rd appearing the moment the 1st dissipates so a striker does have a window of opportunity to hit on the recon. Also before they get hit by the status.

The above will of course fail the moment someone gets their trollaris out and starts spamming the bomber (shocked recon = dead recon), but you can indeed hold that CP for a long time before becoming incapacitated.

Triple venn diagram means

Triple venn diagram means that you lay the bombs in a triangular pattern. You go top, left, right, top, left, right, laying bombs at each point. The bombs themselves do not last long enough to all be up at the same time, but this pattern takes care of that. I used to do the same with electron charge, but after toothpicks took over, I had no choice but to switch to swords. It is hilarious to see a dead person get in a vortex though.

TL;DR
Mist bombs layer in a triangular pattern to expand area covered by one bomb.

Aw, thanks, I actually don't find myself THAT good of a bomber. However, I do try to practice. Thanks Neo, you're great at slashing as well! ^_^
