We need bombs in ESO

Inhuman003

Should we have bombs in the Elder Scrolls Online, I say yes we should the lore backs me up on the game and the information down below too. So Bombs should be a new skill line under World Skills it would be awesome I just know it. We can treat bombs just like poisons on crafting having to gather up ingredients and material to make them. And they have their own special ability effects when they're in use. So what do you guys think about bombs in-game maybe I'm just asking too much.

Fix what we currently have then think about adding new things very carefully.

JamieAubrey

Blinkin8r

It's called Vicious Death, Proxy Det, Soul Teather/EOTS look it up.

I thought about adding that also but thought it went too far. Although a good mortar or land mine would be a nice addition. Add a few tanks and we've got a game!

OMG I did kind of asked for this in return

Murkmire has some enemies that use fumes I think? Alchemist something

Gilvoth

i love bombs and traps and explosions, and i hope we get them.
exploding arrows would also be awesome.
Fire explosions on 1 arrow would be cool as well.

While I am very much a supporter of throwing vials of unspeakable goop at people... It is a touchy area to have Alchemy and a Apothecary types. Since both can be very different, but as well extremely similar.

Would they be a new weapon skill?
Would the "bombs/vials" be a new world skill line?
Would they be baked into the Alchemy skill line?
Would they be independent individual items used?
Would they be actual abilities?
Would they be strictly offensive or mixed with defensive/support?
Would players be able to craft or purchase them?
Which lore group that the player can join would be tied into using these more, so the players have a unique tie in?

Colecovision

Well, bar swap and weaving stop working whenever there is too much fire on the screen. So I'd rather not. Lightning bombs would be worse.

Vietfox

We need slingshots.

ArchMikem

I'd settle for a better rework of the explosive arrow ability for Bows. Give it a bigger bang sound effect as well as a large AoE damage.

I also want Crossbows. Yes I know about the Fighters Guild ability. I want a Crossbow weapon.

I would hate it outside of a brand new class.

Cuz if its a class skill it will be either mandatory or useless. ESO system claim to allow for total customisation but in reality its a system here everyone have the same tool kit.

Inevitable Detonation!

YES!

All the really need is another solvent (alcohol based for easy combustion, perhaps?) to make "alchemical grenades" and then a few more "damage type" ingredients. I mean... damage health + fire for a firebomb, damage health + smoke for a poison gas bomb, damage health + acid for a acid splash bomb, restore health + smoke for a healing mist flask, etc...

Granted you originally said Grenades, and the community here is staunchly against any idea that even relates to the typical action shooter genre.

“Bombs” is a better word how?

Nvm, I don’t care. Good idea op! I obviously support it.

Yeah, meh. Explosives in general. I'm no stranger to troll replies myself in a thread or two.

dodgehopper_ESO

Maybe we can have an Alchemist class since people keep posting to push for 'moar' classes. (I'd prefer a skill line though, always).

This is a fantasy game, and the closest thing to a "Battlemech" here is the Numidium... which for one is a really big deal, and for another, inavtive and hidden by the tribunal in this era.

Besides, this isn't "Vision of Escaflowne"...
