I gotta say, now that I think of it, the fail bomb update actually opened up a completely new dimension of fun for bombers. Here's my idea:

- Wear as much bomb CTR as possible.
- Do not wear bomb DMG; you aren't here to kill things.
- Bring a good shield to protect yourself if anything goes wrong.
- Equip RSS, Nitro, BAB, Irontech.
- Use the supermassive, unpredictable knockback and the flashy graphics of these bombs–and maybe the stun–in conjunction against your teammates.
- When they ask you to stop, tell them that you’re just trying to support the team, and that the devs intended for the bombs to work this way.
- ALWAYS JOIN RANDOM PARTIES. DO NOT DO THIS TO FRIENDS OR GUILDMATES.

Hey, why not. EoS can have their fun on the forums (not attacking you guys, I know I took it too seriously and that it was all in good fun), so I daresay that bombers can have their fun in the game. It's better than blindly raging, right?

Dude,

I've been doing that all along, before.

RSS isn't our only weapon.

It isn't the end of the world.

Yeah, but the way the new RSS, new BAB, and new Irontech all got stun only makes it even more entertaining. :P

This is a joke right

I can understand you probably have a 4k PC laying around in your house. But your teammates too? So I'm the only guy on the server who is broke, damnit!

I've been killing my team mates with polaris too xD

I have another option:
Gather a pack of bombers!
All equip RSS/ISB etc.
Time for some nice circles! olympic rings! We can create our own OOO with 3 bombers! 1!!eleven!!
Some trippy crop circles maybe?

And of course knocking slags into team mates is fun, maybe I'll try that, BAB+Nitro+heavy decon+RSS.
How about Ash of Agni in c42 mission :) Sounds just great!

We used to have 'blue screen of death' nitronome, now OOO brings us 'RED screen of death' and 'orange screen of death' BAB and irontech. Don't forget the 'shard rings of justice', quad vana mace smash waiting for you <3

So rainbow of death now?

All we need now is some Japanese kid playing SK and getting seizure. Think Sega approves this?

Oh yea, I use a mainframe back in the 1980s and it doesn't even have 0's.

YOU THINK THAT'S BAD?

I go on a desktop.

Which has windows vista.

And can't be updated.

And runs on Aol.

Aol 0.9!

I did this before it was cool- I'd use stagger storm+bab to try to stun them as they were sent flying. This is WAY better now though, killing my team mates is far easier with the new BAB.
