Simply: two bombers with any of blast bomb series and nobody sees anything on the screen. Can you make the explosions more transparent/less spectacular?
Edit: or add an option in game settings.

No!

It'll lose the awesome effect of what the blast bomb series is all about! Boom Bam Pow!

As much as I like the look of blast bombs, they really do ruin visibility. The main explosion could be shortened to a brief flash.

There's also the problem of enemies being knocked into other players in mid-attack. Anything that knocks enemies back should also interrupt their attacks. It's true of charge attacks for swords and some guns, but not bombs.

What if

The special effect was just nerfed on your teammates screens? There was an on option to reduce effect somewhere, so it was optional. Honestly i love my blast bomb visual effects, but in parties of four i'd like to tone it down for my own computers performance.

Yeah, totally agree. Once two bombers get going I can't see a thing. Just put my shield up and hope for the best. Imagine of the DA's charge attack turned the entire screen white/yellow for half a second every two seconds... not cool.

On the same note, dropping a bunch of Shivermists in Vanaduke's house completely obscures the floor, which is the only indication that the roof is falling. Increase the transparency a bit and it should fix the issue.
