The 15 second delay to recloaking a Stealth bomber has made Jumpbridge attacks a bit more challenging. Solo torp attacks are out as it takes 2 volleys to pop a hauler and getting a second volley off b4 small POS guns target you is pushing it. Someone awhile back in the forums said if ya deploy a bomb and then warp to a safe that is still ongrid with the POS and stay decloaked that the bomb will still go off, Is this correct?

From what I've read bombs are their own entity like a bubble. I heard that the bombs stay after you warp.
Can anyone refute this?

Launch bomb, warp off, keep ur alt where u launched the bomb to see the fireworks ... :) Yes bomb will do dmg even if u warp off or cloak again ... So if ur a bomber, fit lows full of nanofibers for faster allignment(Keep in mind inertia stabs increase ur sig, so dont use them)

Edited by: Darcon Kylote on 23/04/2009 15:38:24 Tracking on even small pos guns is terrible. Once the webber is incapped, it should be possible to orbit with an AB and just stay there uncloaked while you pound on the jammer. I guess it would depend on how many small guns there were, how many targets there are to cycle through, and whether there's a gunner.

Edited by: Saaya Illirie on 23/04/2009 16:41:13 You don't even need to be on grid for them to go off. It will go off no matter where you are, it's not a missile or a drone and doesn't require a 'connection'. The only problem is that anyone with half a brain cell has added bombs to their overview, and has 15 seconds to align and gtfo. They work even worse on gate camps, as the camp can simply jump through the gate. The only thing a bomb might instapop is a T1 hauler.
But, unless they changed it, the problem you're going to encounter is that bomb's aren't deployable anywhere but 0.0. If you find T1 haulers floating around outside POS shields while neutrals are in system in 0.0, they deserved to be killed. Hell, I'd even eve-mail their corp CEO and ask that he give the pilot a Darwin Award.

This is part of the reason why most half-decently fitted POS have gun blobs on either pole, you orbit the gun on one side and still have a horrible transversal to the guns opposite you. |

Managed to pop a Viator the other day with a single Shrapnel Bomb doing that, so it definately works
