Topic: Beef the bomb

[01:42:30[ <Josef Schlevinsky> What -are- they supposed to do?
[01:42:41] <Rolafen Azec> that is a bit of a mystery
[01:42:45] <Michael J Caboose> chemo bombs had been supposed to get rid of plants
[01:42:48] <Rolafen Azec> I think I tried the m on plnats
[01:42:57] * EyeOfRa is now online.
[01:42:58] <Rolafen Azec> but it like killed 1 and wounded 7
[01:43:03] <Michael J Caboose> but since a certain patch, they only marginally scratch plants
[01:43:07] <Josef Schlevinsky> Lol? Odd
[01:43:15] * thefusion is now online.
[01:43:20] <Michael J Caboose> not odd
[01:43:38] <Michael J Caboose> they implemented a kind of AoE damage when you shoot at ground tiles
[01:43:53] <Michael J Caboose> due to that, they have beefed up plants resists
[01:43:59] <Michael J Caboose> without beefing the bomb

Re: Beef the bomb

either beef the bomb, or differ between plasma and chemo bombs regarding pvp flag (chemos are not supposed to kill mechs) and lower plants chemo resists.

i think because of these bombs, there is that miss-information that chemo ammo works best against plants..

Re: Beef the bomb

Why can't we place them near TPs anymore? big_smile

Re: Beef the bomb

why do we need chemo bombs at all now, when we can target and shoot plants

Have a productive day, runner!

we haven't required them in the past either, since we just used one shielded bot as target behind the plants to decimate enemy noralgis farms.

Once upon a time, we used plasma bombs to clear plants. Wasn't nic effective, but it was helluva fun and quick.

+1 for chemo buff, it's so bad I haven't ever even seen it in action.

Re: Beef the bomb

I know what the both bombs were implemented for. But let's be honest, most of us did used chemo bombs just once and then all fuuu and go to the plasma ones.
