Howdy folks! You've been asking for an elemental damage bomb all your lives, so here she is! Introducing...*drumroll*...the LAZER BOMB!! *badum tss*

All of them have a charge time of 1 second (fully heated) and a fuse time of 1 second.
2* Lazer: Fires off 4 lasers beams in 4 directions. Lasts for 1 second. Range is 1 square.
3* Lazy Lazer: A Lazer modified to rotate while firing. Lasts for 2 seconds. Range is 2 squares.
4* Blazer Lazer: A Lazy Lazer modified to explode when its attack sequence is complete. Range is 3 squares. Lasts for 3 seconds.
5* Spazer: A Blazer Lazer modified to automatically aim at the 4 nearest enemies within its radius. Range is 4 squares. Lasts for 4 seconds. Fires off in 4 directions when no targets are nearby. Emits a bright decorative beacon during its attack sequence.

gods ain't gonna help you, son.

it's oRSS all over again, it would be used to kill a single enemy by placing it right below it. so no.

I still want to know what's so bad about bomb that was able to one-hit a single enemy when we have overpowered crap like this, this and this which can one-hit multiple enemies.

Because bomb that was able to one-hit a single enemy was a bomb and bombs are supposed to be poo.

True.

Bombs are supposed to hit multiple enemies; if you want to massacre one enemy, use a Combuster or Acheron/Obsidian Edge.

Too bad those weapons can massacre a group of enemies faster than a bomb could in a lot of situations due to the ridiculous charge attack.

oRSS

Unless they give a long list of sword-bombs, gun-bombs, and sword-guns a few nerfs involving invincitinks and HALVING their damage, then we bombers deserve something that can be used as a multitool to hit roarmies and other larger enemies and ranged enemies without killin ourselves making the attempt. 3* bombers are practically incapable of soloing/ or have to be extremely patient when doing so, many portions of content that swords and guns will roflstomp in half the time. See also gun puppy runs, roar twins, and even jk without p2p content included.

Bombers can eliminate crowds with decent speed, but quite literally anything a bomb can do a sword or even gun will do better. I'm all for supportive dps, but bombers get very little to work with starting out, and with recent patches few new bombers can fully enjoy the best part of bombing, them 5* rads.

The Lazer bombs could probably pull it off at higher star ratings. They're not very good ranged bombs, though.

A simpler bomb would be an oRSS-like elemental bomb whose shards only appear within a 0.5-square radius of the explosion. That way, they don't 1-shot enemies like they otherwise might.

I like the idea of a bomberman-style bomb. Brandish style explosion in cardinal directions could be a lot of fun.

@thinslayer

If you dropped a spoke or two in the first two stages of the bomb and kept the rotation, add starting laser position in a north-south position, add one more tile of range, theoretically the overall dps could be maintained with enough error to account for its' utility.

I'd keep any automatic aiming out of the equation for bombs btw..

I'm just tossing my personal thoughts atm.

@Khamsin

Actually, I like your idea. It wasn't what I originally had in mind (like, Seraphynx/Roarmulus laser was my idea), but Bomberman-style explosions might work, especially considering the power of similar Brandishes. It might even be useful in ICMF if the initial blast was large enough.
