I killed JK in under 15 secconds...
I'm not one to suggest nerfing my own gear.. but this may just be a bit too powerful.
The new shadow bomb is way too powerful.

It's a Shadow weapon, and jellies are weak to shadow, what's your point?
As said previously, there are a lot of weapons that can dispatch RJ rather quickly. Acheron, Fang of Vog, even Dread Venom Striker if you're well practiced with it.

I'm a bomber and I support a nerf in damage. With Max CTR, this bomb is rediculous, especially in RJP. The Jelly Royal is a BOSS and this bomb basically turns him into a jiggling post-nerf zombie with a shadow weakness.
I love this bomb, have ever since the first time I took it into the arena before RJP, but it feels like cheating. Kind of like I felt when I first used a VT or AoA line in an arena, but the feeling of cheating has not vanished yet.

The problem isn't with the bomb, it is with the design of Royal Jelly. Under normal circumstances, the new shadow bomb isn't likely to hit targets so many times. The regenerating blocks restrict the movement of Royal Jelly, making it an easy target for bombs.
The older version was much tougher to defeat. I remember my party getting wiped out many times because it could easily heal all damage taken. It could be very unforgiving if you mess up. You either dominated the battle or not at all. OOO redesigned Royal Jelly so that it was no longer an all or nothing proposition. You can still beat it even if you didn't bring ideal equipment as long as you have the skill.
One way to increase the difficulty is by redesigning the map layout so that the Royal Polyps are actually a threat and the Royal Jelly has more freedom to move around the room.

@ Maeko
I think maybe the DR feels like cheating to you because it is really really good - in relation to other bombs. I still feel like it isn't quite as good as swords, but considering swords can hit less targets at once (generally speaking) I am okay with that. Bombs have always been faster at dispatching large numbers of enemies at once anyhow.

Having had that bomb used on
Having had that bomb used on me in LD, I don't think it's that overpowered. It only takes away about 2 bars of HP every time you get hit, which isn't that much honestly.
You can kill RJ faster with an Acheron. What's your point? :O
