Popular Post SadKnickHours 156 Posted October 23, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 23, 2021 Description: [description of what you are suggesting, one paragraph minimum] So the red unit bomber class is currently no more than a meme. The speed while running is rather slow and the blast radius of the bomb is currently less than the RPG-7. Right now the class is more of a joke class for haha funny raid memes, and even for raids its not very useful unless they are very close together. What im proposing is a speed boost to the class (similar to afghan prestige and US cachet), and a buff to the radius of the suicide bomb itself to make it more viable in all situations. Reasoning: [how would this benefit our server?] I am aware that the RPG-7 is currently getting a significant nerf, and its not without good reason as it is absolutely broken as an explosive right now. However the suicide bomb, which has one use per life and only one slot to the class at all times, should get more of an upgrade from its current version, and i believe that it deserves to be a lot more powerful due to the cost that comes with using it and the exclusiveness of the class itself. I believe the class in itself should be similar to how the Jihad weapon works in TTT, having a relatively large radius with the price being paid your own life. I do hope you take this into consideration with the balancing to explosives being done. Additional Information: [Photos/Videos][/CODE] 1 11 Link to comment
StarWarsRP Management Team Theos 423 Posted October 23, 2021 StarWarsRP Management Team Share Posted October 23, 2021 (edited) Personally I don't agree with the speed boost to the class, as that plus a damage range boost could make it a bit unfair on some of the objective points on this map, and Omega (assuming that is the next map). I also feel it might be useful if you demonstrated through a video or something the rough range of splash it does now, and how much further you feel it should be. Asking for a splash buff, without more details, is what led to the RPG-7 having a stupid splash. Overall though I'm fine with a splash increase for the suicide bomb.

Krim 494 Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 +1 Proof a good suicide bomb works: Broken and Crypt's raids on old vega, mfs got like 100 kills each Link to comment

So here are a few clips that show why the bomb is rather bad at this moment in time: https://streamable.com/4trl1e https://streamable.com/thv6ow https://streamable.com/5mxbk3 Coupled with the fact you can be killed before it even goes off, and that players can actually survive it rather easily, needs a couple changes made to it.

For the last 2 clips it looks like the explosion starts at your feet, so increasing the blast radius will do nothing, but the 1st clip I do agree that the blast radius should be increased overall +1 Link to comment
Salmon 488 Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 Accepted We'll add a little bit more to the radius. We'll see if we can fix the bomb dropping at the feet, no promises however. @Fonza 1 Link to comment
