    It is just way too overpowered. With just silver skill regen you can keep people pinned down continuously and shut off access. If you get lucky you get a kill. Level 3 does tons of damage, knockback (which leads to ringouts), and fire keeps them from recovering for an awfully long time, if not outright killing them. This makes the assau-

    HA, just kidding. This isn't a rant and I don't hate the bomb at all. I just want to let you guys know, if you didn't already, that the assault bomb does a lot of damage to the moneyball, and unlike the airstrike (however, I do not touch the support, let me know if does a sizable chunk of damage to the moneyball, I'm honestly not sure), recharges quickly.

    For all you moneyball guys out there, the bomb rapes it.

    The bomb would be overpowered if it were a landmine.

    Not sure what you mean by landmine.. Like hidden? or just kept in a place for a long time? because then I would take your comment sarcastically. And I main the Sniper and Assault, and ya the bomb rapes that thing. And Support's Air Strikes don't do that much damage, about 1/3 of the bomb i would say

    It wouldn't be *that* bad considering you could plan which way you would be hit and avoid ringouts or being knocked into positions that would get you killed or killed faster.

    na i think its fine.
    I play assault myself (beware of the BIAS ;) ) and i experienced alot, that if you get of a bomb and hit an enemy he is mostly thrown away from you and got so much health left, that you cant just get after him and finish.

    And seriously, if you get thrown of the map, you need to watch the ground and check where it would send you :D

    With less damage or less knockback it would be useless. Comparable skills of other classes are equally deadly. And as a sniper: watch the ground is the best counter against a bomb

    It also does a ridiculous amount of damage to Jackbots. I play Support, I don't touch Assault, but my guest was playing Assault and we noticed that it does at least as much damage to a Jackbot as 3 airstrikes. That's my guesstimate.

    As far as airstrike damage on the moneyball, it's really not much at all. I typically just time airstrikes about 20 seconds apart on the moneyball to keep it down if we're having problems getting through to finish it. I think the shotty at point-blank does more damage.

    I think it's even a Protip saying the bomb does a lot of damage to Jackbots.

    Hey that gives me an idea, I/we should try to make a list of all the Protips :?: :)
