Have fun launching 1,4,10,20, or 50 bombs of any damage type at once, they can't hurt each-other as of the missile update making bombs not be entities in space.

Pictured is 80 bombers out of 160 bombing a carrier to death nd taking entire shields of a supercarrier.

1) Learn to read the front page before posting.

2) This is pretty obviously a bug, if this was intended, all non-bomber subcaps are now obsolete.

this effect is far too sexy!

i hope ccp never nerfs it. this is one bug ccp should keep!

i cant stop watching it.

the funny thing is that the super carrier still held well and only lost the shields after 150 bombs! super still op as hell!

Nah. Only the ones that can't accelerate at 550m/s². Blink

Can we get a comment from CCP on this? This is a serious issue affecting tens of thousands of players. Like this poor soul.

http://eve-kill.net/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=13899266 <--------- evidence of this horrrible broken item.

At least disable/remove bombs while a fix is worked on.

that killboard is wrong. 2 sb cant kill a carrier by themselves period. Unless the the carrier was already deep in structure.
specially when the carrier has 3 large trimarks.

That is literally the killmail from the video everyone's talking about. I know because I bombed it.

Because of the absurd burst damage, the killmail was horribly bugged, and both of them showed 1-2 bombers.

is this the one with 150/160 sb lanching bombs simultaneusly?
if so then we know what happened. Besides the setup the mid slots and low slots are horrible.

i think this is a bug that should be concidered perhaps to stay. Its a nice counter. This means you cant just field carriers and suppers constanly aka win button

1) That would be because it was a blue carrier being bombed to test this bug on a large scale and provide funny footage.

2) If this stayed, bombers would rule all of nullsec. Carriers are also very easily countered by battleships / battlecruisers. They are very far from an I win button.

Yes instead huge stealth bomber blobs capable of instapopping entire fleets would infest every corner of space
