BLU - Are you going to be evil? or good? :-)

Nope. two entirely different TP moves. You can tell because normal bomb toss has a short ready time, but the drop ones have a longer one.

I'll just hafta respectfully disagree till I can see this difference for myself. I've intentionally blocked 13 straight bombs (started actually counting after 6) and I'd be hard pressed to believe a streak such as that was luck. But you generally know what you're talking about so I'll give it some thought.
 
I have to agree with Taruthar on the gobbie bomb.

If it does seem longer or shorter could always be due to lag, or maybe something else....I dont know.

But I really believe that its one ability.
 
As the guy face to face with gobs my whole career, I can say for a fact the gob can be made to drop his bomb to me. I'd have a better success rate if I could convince the Blm's of that =/ ...stupid <stun> spell.

I went 12 tosses in a row with my static once. seeing is believing.


Blu just sounds like a chaotic life. can't wait for that frenzy to start up ^^

Yea I haven't been doing as much ballista/brenner as I used to cause lately been wrapped up in a lot in-game and out-of-game, but... I'm looking forward to see how BLU is in ballista/brenner. :-D

Its gonna be a lot of fun.
I also agree the same may be for Corsair, and Puppet Master.

I see a three way dance coming up...
"PUP vs. SMN vs. BST" (Whose pet/pup/summon will survive? O.o)
And I quote: "PLACE YOUR BETS NOW!! BET! BET! BET!"

Yeah kinda like gobs dont hit others of their kind(i.e. other gobs). I dont think players will hit other players.

But I cant wait to be dropping bombs in ballista/brenner.

this made me lol.. I'm such a dork XD
 
Summons would so win. Ramuh's Thunderspark will take care of them XD
Anyway, on the topic of the Goblin Bombs, I was under the impression that the distance between the Goblin and Goblin Bomb's target determined whether the bomb killed the goblin or not. I could be wrong as I never really tested it.
To be honest, I have to go with the other people that said the Bomb Toss wont kill other players. Reason being, as stated before, that Goblin bombs don't damage other mobs, however, what if you're a Blu in a party and happen to get a failed bomb?

If there is a way to guarantee a failed bomb toss when the caster is at full hp, I can say I'd be using that more often than not killing shitty pts...even if I do lose xp.
 
I dont think this was brought up or I could be just missing something. But. Who is to say that a BLU can use a gobbie bomb?
Unless there is a list of moves and abilities out there for the new jobs that I have missed, how does anyone know what it can do?
 
Pretty much everyone is ranting about the gobby bomb because of a video that has been distributed about the live FFXI Fan Festival regarding a BLU soloing a slime monster that looks similar to the ones in FF2 and FF8.

The same goes for Puppet Master where there was a video for it too.
