Bomb damage increased?

So my question is did bomb damage increase in 199? i know you were gonna up the amount of bombs the bags have, but the amount feels the same and all of a sudden seams gets destroyed by 5 bombs on a tier 5 planet which they didnt do before they just barely survived while all the rock got destroyed.

That is with Bomb Epic - 5 points in Bomb mastery and 8 points in Power bonus.

kinda ruins bomb mining as a whole when it suddenly destroyes all resources around in 4 bombs and the rocks in 5, where it used to be 5 to destroy all the rocks and 6 to actually loose the resources.

Bomb mining was nerfed.

3

Rocks and Seams have the same health value with this new patch, so now you destroy everything.

4

They still have different health values. Bombs just deal equal percentile damage to both now

Thanks for the clarification. c:

yea i re read the patch notes, and the line that states the bomb destroys rocks and resources at the same time wasent there when i read them yesterday as i recall… but that contradicts the saying they wanna make bomb mining on par with regular mining considering it makes bombs useless for mining.

Tho i know their intended purpose is combat.

Yea, seems someone forgot to put that bit in there originally… huh.

And I have to agree, I feel like this attempt at balancing the two ways of mining did not succeed at all. Bomb mining is def a thing of the past now. I personally felt that the xp loss, and loss of stone from bomb mining vs that of hammer mining was a good compromise. Albeit, the max range of bombs could have used a bit of a nerf, I don’t think this change did what they claimed it was supposed to.
