Did they stealth nerf/fix the Irontechs?

Basically there was a big thread by Zeddy a while back where he found that the Irontech Bomb actually has a faster fuse than its 5-star version (which had/has a Fuse on-par with BAB) while not doing that much less damage.

But when I got my own Irontech Bomb I tested it against my BAB and found their fuses to be the same (or if there was a difference I couldn't see it) and now that I've upgraded it to an Irontech Destroyer its fuse time still seems to be the same.

Did they change it while nobody was looking?

Depends on how old was that thread you're talking about.
Some Irontech and BAB changes were notified if you dig patch changelogs.
Could have been when they gave it stun.

It was around about what, a few weeks ago? maybe a month at most (it's on page 3), quite a while after they got Stun.

My thread was in December. I'll see if I can't find someone with bomb and compare the fuse time with them. The difference was never all that big, at any rate.

Regarding the Bomb vs Destroyer damage, that was a result of doing my checking in Guild Training Hall. 5* weapons usually do not pay off from 4* weapons until Stratum 6.

Considering it only goes up

Considering it only goes up to 4* and is only Normal damage, it seems like a fair trade to me...

@Batabii, You are thinking of the wrong bomb.

@Verodius, Like Zeddy said, 5* weapons don't really pay off until you're into stratum 6, and the guild training hall acts like depth 23.
