see Bombing Guide
Have you read the Bombing Guide on the wiki? It's pretty good, and it discusses the relative merits of these bombs.

Nitronome if you want to effectively kill the enemies while blinding your team mates and disrupting their attacks.
Big angry bomb if you want to effectively scatter the enemies and kill your teammates while doing close to no damage.

So you're saying that if I have a polaris, a big angry bomb is the optimal secondary weapon?

I'd say wait. According to one of my friends who's on the test server, BAB will get some changes.

Currently, the BAB is a troll weapon good for pissing the hell out of your teammates, getting you killed due to its long charge time and movement speed reduction, flinging everything everywhere, generating a lot of screenflash, and not much else.
The Nitronome has a better DPS rate, with a shorter charge time and less of a movement speed reduction whilst charging. It does less damage per bomb, but since the charge time is shorter it works out as a better rate of damage. It comes as a package with screenshakes and screenflashes that can be highly irritating in a party. It also has knockback, but not (I think) quite as much as the Big Angry. It's also infamous for causing rage and lag amongst teammates.
Both cause rage, the BAB slightly less so due to its rarity (the only people I've ever found with them are all specialist bombers). Skilled Nitronome users are accustomed to placing them strategically to get monsters away from teammates; regrettably, these tend to be few on the ground.
I would go with the Nitronome. It's safer, on the whole.

Might want to wait a bit, the BAB is poised to get a huge buff soon. See how it turns out.

If the buffs currently on the test server are what will happen, I still say go with Nitro. Yes, the BAB is getting "fixed" and does much more damage. But unless you have a lot of experience bombing, or just like being really different, it will still get you owned. Blast bombs are generally solo bombs, since parties hate them. Nitro is still the best option for it's speed, and it's damage is very very reasonable. If you are super pro with DBB, and think you don't want just a normal damage version of DBB, then go with BAB. But, if you don't have much experience with these styles of bombs, go Nitro.

@Batabii nothing.
What does any of it have to do with Love Puppies? Some of us like all our titles of posts to send a particular message. This is mine.
My post, however, was on topic, if you read it.

That's stupid, your titles should always be relevant to the actual post. It's not a signature line or something.

I actually agree with Larry in this case. Signatures are ridiculous and unnecessary. I honestly wish it would default to no subject line as well.

Nitro. BAB is, and will, be inferior to the Nitro. Reliable knoickback, very good damage, and you dont have to walk half way across the floor to place them bomb at the enemy again.

...I didn't say the subject line was a signature line?. I put a signature in a subject line, get over it. Was the subject line intended for signature lines? No. Does it matter? No. Make-up was intended for women, yet some guys wear it because it's just fine.

But Batabii you aren't putting a subject in the subject line. You're just letting it use the first words of your post. Which isn't a subject, it's just a teaser trailer. So. Your point is what, exactly?
And to reiterate: yes, nitro. don't make BAB until you have way too much money and time and are just making stuff for collections. As far as usefulness, nitro all the way.

Having the first words of your post used as the subject always looks a bit weird to me, since you get half the text cut off.
'ummm what does any' doesn't really sum up the contents of your post, either. Why do you find such a problem with this?
Sometimes I wonder whether you just come into threads to nitpick.
Also: they're fixing Big Angry? O.o Evidently I need to look more closely at the Test Server notes again. I didn't see that.

@Aureate
Define "fix." They put on the test server possible changes to both BAB and Irontech. If they go through, it will make BAB have a purpose. Will it be used? I dunno. I mean, people don't use all weapons a lot, that doesn't mean they are broken. So if by "fixed" you mean "not totally pointless and useless," yes, they are fixing. If by "fixed" you mean "Will be used as much as any other bomb," no, I doubt that.
Nitro is the more useful of the two, with a bigger range, faster fuse, and less movespeed decrease while charging.
