you know i anticipate flying SB with bombs :-) finally SB is doing what it should do.
Altho i can't for the love of god drop this gut feeling that someone somewhere will abuse it to grief.
If the bombs could be used in high sec it would be very easy for a duo to grief i think.
Undock from a high traffic station with a friend, launch bomb, see people go boom, then immediately eject to save the bomber and your friend boards the bomber (assuming the bomber survives at least one hit.
Or if the bomb is launched how about ejecting right before it goes boom ?
Would be very nice tactic to kill macro miners. or grief normal miners :-)
What do you think ? can it be exploited like that ?

I expect stealth bomber prices to rise. And yes I do expect much more grief from them, but I'm also looking forward to them in real intended pvp uses. Cuz for now, they are missing big time.
I'll take 'more pvp fun' for $500 Alex.

Just so you guys know.. bombs can't be deployed in empire.
Those are my principles, and if you don't like them... well, I have others.

If these things were allowed in Empire, could you imagine the sec hit you would take outside of Jita 4-4?

You're so uninformed. Yet I can't be bothered to do your own work for you. Get a clue.
Additionally, it's people like you who's first 'gut feeling' is 'grief problems' that are a blight on Eve. Stop posting.
Because I said so...

There was already some discussion about this with a dev. Bombs can't be used in low sec or high sec, they can only be used in 0.0.

That is fairly unfortionate... maybe next they'll make it so that weapons cant be used in 1.0 an fix the high sec grief problem :p that would be mega weak too :(

Is that so? Thats probably a good thing.
Stealth Bomber prices are gonna go right up after the patch, I reckon. The only reason they're so cheap atm is because no one wants the damned things. As soon as they're worth having, supply and demand will come in to play.

It has been mentioned several times. Plus that's the way it's implemented on Sisi.
Anyway due to the speed boosts Stealth Bombers will receive their whining threads - no doubt about that. Has been discussed in the GD forum already.

Given that a dev has stated they're set to cost around 20mil, I don't think it's going to be cost effective to use bombs in missions

i was under the impression you could fit 3 cruise launchers and a bob launcher..
sadly enough thats not possible.. .
I think this mostly will be used by alliance warfare. as cost is no issue.
Or small roaming gnags with an dictor and a couple of sb ..
dictor for the bubble and sb to finish him off.
mabe there will be more use of ship scanners :)

I'm unsure if price will go up that much. Looking at it from the Caldari side, they should be fairly cheap to invent, 2 Starship and 2 ME datacores, and Kessie BPC's can only become Bombers, so should not be to bad for making BPC's. So if the price does fluctuate, it will probably temporary, at best. Probably a slight rise, but nothing drastic.

You can't fit BOB launchers. Prerequisite is Developer Relationship Level 5 - a skill not available on the free market.

Excuse me ?!? CHEAP ?!? Have you been watching the market in the past month or even longer, ever since it was even HINTED at them getting a boost ?
I suppose a price explosion from around 5 mil to almost 20 mil for just about all SBs isn't relevant... or is it ?

At 20mil a bomb, stealth bombers loaded out with bombs are going to be an expensive greifing tool.
On the test server the bombs are used ALOT because they are only 100isk each but to build the they use 15-20mil isk of materials to produce just one.
So now, if you are going to use these to grief, you better have a) a fat wallet, and b) a fat target. Just to give you an idea, atleast 5-10 bombs are needed to make a properly tanked BS pilot worry.
Sig: Miners supply the ore that the Industrialists use to build the ships you PVP/E with so please think of them as your ship blows up from the enhanced PVP/E in EVE. We know CCP hasn't.

even if it's been established that bomb's can't be used in empire, I must point out that the ship will still get shot at even if you eject. Just to save embarrasment when you try that with something else...
