I have the 4* of almost every bomb except grav bomb and toxic vapor and blast line.

I have heavy demo suit and helm.

Originally, I was planning on going the (as the wiki puts it) Jack of All Trades Mk I suit with a Volc demo helm and Mad bomber suit.

With the new Volc demo suit buff....

I have to reconsider.

I am an avid demo, been one almost all my time in SK until recently when I started investments in an anti-fiend set.

What would the recommendation be? Full volc or Mixed set?

Hybrid still works. Full mad

Hybrid still works. Full mad still gives you the best armour bonuses, allowing you to get a bomb damage and another trink of your choice. Full volc is, compared to full mad, not for dps styled bombers.

I'm prone to extreme lag spikes and sometimes d/c'ing and forcing my comp to r/c me to the game.

So Mad bomber, while an excellent set, is very VERY dangerous for my latency issues. Usually I'm 3 bar, but prone to D/c.

Well, you could try to get shock UV on your gear to negate the negative shock resist. Poison and Freeze aren't too much of a big deal unless you are frozen with a broken shield which happens a lot with ice mechas and lumbers.

K so

The only way you can get DB max (which is basically necessary for a damage bomber) is using two mad bombers and 1 elite boom, or volcano/mad with 2 damage bonus trinkets.

If you won't be killing anything, then volcanic is fine.

Mad Bomber isn't recommended unless you have pretty awesome UV's on your suit/helm

Bombastic is just bad. don't even bother.

With the hybrid, you are left with a bit of fire resist, and negative to pretty much everything else. I'd roll at least a med UV on the mad bomber item you choose (now that volcanic suit is ctr med).

NOTE: using two sets of volcanic demo is the same as using 2 CTR trinkets. so you don't need to drop the money on volcanic if you don't have to.

At level 10, all bombs get CTR med, combined with any combination of volcanic or mad demo gear=MAX CTR.
