    How do you guys feel when people ninja cap the flag? Yesterday I got a really hype ninja cap, the enemy way pushing our tent and we only had like 5 tickets left. Using three bombs I bomb jumped to their flag and then picked up another three bombs for the run home with the flag. They were all smashing through our home base so they didn't even notice me until I got back. Lots of cries of "lol" "conlryt hak" "wtf" and I'm pretty sure Vidar almost had a stroke. But one guys was really mad and he after a bit of complaining he ragequit. I was super happy at first but that one guy got me thinking, was he really looking forward to that last siege? Did I ruin his fun? Did I ruin everyone's fun? Did I ruin all the fun that ever was, is, and ever will be forever as we drag ourselves weeping through the gutter of pain and madness crying for release but death never comes?

    It was probably ok but I dunno.

    Speaking as someone who loves preforming ninja tunnel caps, I have nothing wrong with the BJ ninja. Seriously, if people can't take the time to properly enclose their flag, shops, 'nstuff then they deserve to have their siege spoiled. Same with not paying attention-- I'm always 'WTF??!?' when my team loses to a ninja, but if they were able to get past us and back again, without us noticing, then more power to them I say!

    Bomb jumping is just cheap IMO, as a builder, even when you do enclose your flag, the bomb jumper usually just breaks down the doors (cus there is nobody back at base). Ive had times when i 'bomb jumper proof' my base with spikes a crap, and they still survive. WAY TOO OP

    Yeah, I agree, it costs nothing for the bombs, and there's no risk involved for the bomb jumper either, it's literally impossible to make any kind of effective defence, and anyone who bomb jumps has no skill whatsoever, and should go and get a life. WAY WAY TO OP. Am I right?

    Hush, Hella. Not everyone has had the blessing of access to good quality satire when they were young. Stop flouting your advantages. :p

    whatever1works, if a lone bombjumper can get into your base then clearly you've built it wrong. A good base should have the doors high enough that a knight requires help to reach them and walls/roof thick enough that it requires a minimum of 4 bombs to get through to the flag. Additionally, an anti-bombjump tower is easy enough to construct. Looking at things objectively, noting how easily things can go wrong when you bombjump, the risk/reward for bomb jumping is about right.

    I think bombjumpers arent too cheap as they have to be able to get in and out of your base not dead.

    I love bomb jumping, it's the only way I can use bombs without killing myself. It's great to get to the battlefield fast to skip the walking or jump over those towers on the other team. Also there is a range of different bomb jumps and each bomb jump needs practice to master, so I'd you get bored you can practice bomb jumps.

    Speedhacking is faster It is very addicting bombjumping over the enemy base; even if I never do anything and die straight away.

    My favorite thing about bomb jumping is when you have that epic moment when you skip across 3 players successfully killing them all, and then getting pissed off because your computer is too shitty to record anything. :>:(: :QQ: :(

    i love bomb jumping in war maps with water. on chidoris i coin farmed enough for the super keg. surfed over. blew their fortress wide open and died which is understandable since there is no way to block that explosion. i then bought 2 bombs, bomb jumped over got the flag then bomb jumped back whilst skipping on the water on my way back XD. it was pretty dam epic :D and they were all like "wut..." i can see tho why it would be cheap especially in the arl but of course any one there should be fairly competent enough to stop such a thing anyways.

    I think Bomb jumping is ok. Everyone has at least 1 O/P thing.

    Archers: Fricken O/P damage from far away.
    Knights: Bomb jumping
    Builders: O/P towers

    If a bomb jumper gets in your base, Its obviously you don't have a roof... Like seriously if you had a roof and protection behind you then you would have no problems... And also.. SPIKES! :D
     
  13. Not just far away. They're powerful when it gets to close combat when a knight lacks bombs. Bomb jumping is fine as it is. Gives knights that "edge".

    Like everyone said, bomb jumping is very flexible, many people do it for the fun. But I for one use it to get over towers i don't feel like spending 3 hours destroying.

    Bomb jumping is awesome, the idea of being able to bomb jump in, rape train it up and bomb jump out. It really makes knight combat interesting on pub servers :D
    Its totally preventable by buildings however, and liberal placing of spikes can deter enemy knights from trying it.
