My question is simple, did these bombs are ineffective against subcapitals because their insignificant area of effect?

what happens if i use this bomb against an inmobile subcapital? assuming the bomb will hit this ship the same way that if it hits a capital.

Can i devour the whole capacitor of a bastioned marauder with this thing?

Radiates an omnidirectional pulse upon detonation that neutralizes a portion of the energy in the surrounding vessels.

This variant of the standard Void Bomb neutralizes an incredible amount of capacitor within a tiny area, and is unsuitable for use against sub-capital vessels.


As for actual use....not a clue. Don't know if something was done to caps to make their model bubble bigger for that 1m thermal vent effect so Red 5 can hit it or something else....who knows but actual pilots; but standard thinking is just shoot the crap out of cap ships since passive buffers are the norm anyway in PVP and capacitor isn't used by anything that isn't active....who wouldn't of thought humans wouldn't of figured out how to counter neuts. My thinking is that bomb is ment for lone drops, but CCP nerfed jump drives so pretty sure that isn't happening as much as the bitching for Ishtars that will probably happen once CCP gets sick of hearing about it. So....it probably won't work on a marauder unless the suns and moons are aligned by the 7th generation of the 7th what ever mystical crap you believe in..
