Is it me, or do I think that the Shivan warheads in Blue Planet are very dangerous? I was flying the Vishnan Missionary just now when I got caught in the shockwave of an Unknown Megabomb. The explosion depleted my front shields completely and reduced my hull from 100% to 20%. :wtf:
-
be carefull... specially on "forced entry" the bombs used by bomber wings that attack the sanctuary and the temerarie (the last bomber wings I think) are quite over-powered and will blow you away if you stand close.
-
I'm in your boat too. In BP, just use your missiles to attack the bombs because the shockwaves are really dangerous in my opinion.
-
It is quite. The AI can't handle the explosions. :drevil:
-
So THAT's why I kept blowing up...
:/
-
I never had that issue. Then again, I favor Maxims for that mission. They do very high hull damage and can hit from outside AAAf beam range, so they're great for those rotten little cruisers in Forced Entry.
-
The Maxim also happens to have a far greater range than an exploding bomb's blast radius. ;)
This is despite the fact that I don't use it.
-
Yeah, I knock the hell out of bombs way far away with maxims. Sadly their shield damage is quite poor.
-
Then you'll probably be quite stumped if you ever try shooting one down at close range. :drevil:
-
Ah, but I have far more sense than that.
-
Normal bombs don't hurt you when you blow them up at close range, provided your shielding isn't breached in a region.
-
If you actually get hit by a bomb - even a Helios, it will barely make a difference to your shield level.
Still, it is quite shocking being hit by a Helios on a head-on charge against Sekhmets. ;)
-
Yeah, but only NORMAL bombs. The bombs in Blue Planet appear to be otherwise. ;)
-
Well, I guess that they had to be that powerful - seriously from what I read in the past, it is said that the Helios bomb is even more powerful than an atomic.

ORLY?
I swear, on more than one occasion, while trying to shoot down a bomb, I went a little too close and entered the bomb's hit region, after which I asploded in one hit.

Perhaps your shield quadrants were breached - with the enemy bombers shooting your fighter on all sides.
-
Well the Shivan megabombs are uberfied in damage, so while they gave nothing more than a blood nose before, they give enough damage now to be fatal.

Like I said before. :)

Well, that explains everything... :rolleyes:
