Just a reminder to everyone

Change happens with things, there's no reason to complain about it if you don't like it, because chances are that complaining won't change it, and if you took the time to work with things, you might find that the changes aren't too bad. I find it rediculous that people are still complaining about the changes to the shard bombs, when the patch happened a while ago. Rather than just hating them, I know people who have continued to use them and found ways they work as well if not better than the old shard bombs. All I have to say is, Deal with it.

And this applies to more than just the shard bombs, to clarify. I just used them as an example

As I said earlier: I disagree

Alright

Ok, so it wasn't about the thing with lizards not having hair. I understand how you can disagree with this, and I respect that you just simply say it rather than making this forum a rage vs unrage thread

Lizards do have things similar to hair though.

Ok, you got me

What I did there was I didn't specify in what way they work better, so while the new shard bombs are better for AoE than the old shard bombs, they don't work better than the old ones in the same niche

I didn't know that, thanks for the info

More AoE should = more damage, when fighting large groups.

"they don't work better than the old ones in the same niche"
Yes. They both have different niches, which means there was no reason to get rid of one for the other.

Yeah, chances are slim but there are chances so it's a better shot than doing nothing.

Serell, I understand that,

However, according to he Dev team, the old shard bombs' niche was too far off from those of the other bombs, and therefore it was changed

Byas: it could possibly happen, but thinking it will and because of that thought using all your time complaining about it is rediculous ._.

Yes

Yes, and we're trying to show them it was not too far off, or they could make some simple tweaks instead of scraping it.

I know some people think that way,

But others are being completely radical about it and want no changes of any kind done to them. I see how a nice medium would work, but some people wouldn't even like that, and those are the people I refer to in the OP

Alright, compare it to other damage bombs then. Despite dealing pure damage (i.e. ele, shadow, etc) the bombs clear AREAS of enemies 15-30% slower than bombs dealing neutral damage.

Is there any specialized damage weapon in the game that gets outclassed by similar normal/neutral damage dealing weapons? I'd be surprised if a leviathan could kill beasts/fiends faster than a 4* flourish but here we are seeing DCB get outclassed by neutral dmg dealing DBB against undead, SSB getting outclassed by normal damage dealing nitronome, SSS getting outclassed by normal damage dealing nitronome against wolvers, etc.

Here is a fun one for you:
Fiends are weak to piercing and strong against shadow, right? How much faster should SSS clear trojans compared to a dark retribution?

Nah, usually I just post a joke or mockery related to it in some post or another, after all there's an official thread about bringing back the RSS.
But reading other posts and disagreeing/agreeing is something that I would do even in posts unrelated to the bomb after all it's a forum, people discuss all the time.

"there's no reason to complain about it if you don't like it"

There is, show you disagree. Keeping for yourself "i dont like it" surely wont change anything. Saying out loud that you dont like things have better chance to change something than not saying anything.
