Because your gunning/swording
Because your gunning/swording is sufficient and your experience with bombers have been mostly bad? That and they generally can't even kill things like Swords and Autoguns/Alchemers can.

I'll tell you why you won't use bombs, but first you need to tell me why I should care.

Because you don't have any bombing armour and they're quite horrible without it.

Bombs are generally impossible to use without bombing gear. And they're not very directional, and have very different mechanics compared to swords and bombs.

Cuz you are using nitronome/shards instead of a haze in a skolver armor.

Hmm...
Ya know, for once I actually agree with Grimranger as in, this guys needs help and has brain issues. Look, superchannel. Just, sit in a corner, and think about your life. Just try to focus on doing things that aren't completely stupid and come back when you have found the common sense in you. Siriusly how are we able to answer your question if it is in your brain? Dummies...

Copy and paste from one of my old response to another topic
Reasons why bombs aren't frequently used.
-Bombs ,like guns have pure specielized damage (except nitro and shard) That means they will either be very effective or very ineffective against a mob of enemies. And all knights should hate mobs.
-Attacking with bomb (offensively ) means you will be leaving yourself vulurnable against ranged attacks (gun puppies and howlitzers ) while charging a bomb a knight cannot shield, so basically until you finished charging a bomb, you are likely to be hit and die.
-Bomb performance enhancing gears (all demo suits infact) have only elemental defence, while wolcer coat and gunslinger gears have variants that defend against all 3 types of special damages. The odds are stacked against the bombs once again.
-Bombs are weak against individuals (common sense really ) and it is distracting to both gunners and swordies. Sometimes, during the heat of battle, the cloud of the shivermist can CLOAK enemy gun puppy's bullets and they only decloak when they hit me, it is rediculous... ( bad latency...)
-In LD, bombs can act as good defensive tool, but too many people in the game prefer seeing a massive damage dealt next to their names rather than winning ( skolver clones and tooth picks ) And in a general consensus, more kills = more score, so the utility of bombs in LD is also reduced.
-Bombs aren't meant to be used frequently, they are in fact the last line resort for many non-hellbent bombers. And due to the two weapon limit ( unlocking slots sounds like a waste of CE to me ), many players (who can't afford it) prefer a two weapon loadout (a sword and gun) like in many mordern FPS, you get to carry 2 weapons, (main gun and a pistol in combat arms) Grenade, in many gamers' mind, is nothing more than an 'auxilliary' weapon.
-Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, but srsly, what would you prefer? Your knight Avatar holding a long, badas sword OR would you prefer him/her holding a bomb ( a large shard/ iron ball)? The thing is, OOO should come up with some cool redesign for the bombs(they seriously lack in detail comapred to guns and swords), so that they can attract more players.
going to open your brains and play with it to answer that.
