    Same as before, but now the distance between you and the bomb when it goes off matters more.

    If you're closer to the bomb, you'll go flying (even a little more than before I think)

    If you're farther from the bomb, you'll just kind of get nudged.

    First of all, wrong section..
    But i'll tell you anyway, Before you used to be able to bomb jump as you jumped up, but you can't any more, you have to falling and have the bomb explode, but make sure you don't fall for to long till you literally start falling and the bomb will just explode, also there is a boss way of bomb jumping... I made a thread back at 265.

    You included a good point, (Refer to bold and underlined) I noticed that you get get hurt by a bomb and you do not die as an archer (any class really) only losing 1 heart or so, but it glitches sometimes leading to 0 hearts.

    Bomb jump works as normal but you cant jump and hope it explodes from up.

    You need higher ground and throw yourself from a clif or something.By holding your shield up you can normaly bomb jump.Just make sure your 5-6 blocks above ground when bomb explodes otherwise you will die.
    (yes this is up-to-date with the newest build)

    My bomb-jump has always been jump, shield behind me, then throw the bomb up and behind me at the last second.

    I die a lot though even from a few updates back because I haven't practiced much since then. At some point the fuse timer was adjusted or there was some kind of lag-prevention delay that changed it just slightly and I mess up about half the time now lol.

    That works as well but aint as efficient in lenght as a jump-down-a-clif-bombjump (is there a second name).Throw down bomb and shield works for heights.

    With the throwing of the bomb at the ground you get more height if at the last second you jump and "shield bash" down onto the bomb also my way is similar I included a link a couple of posts back :)

    The shield up is called a held jump, dudes.

    Held bomb jumping is still works your timing just needs to be way better. I can do it both ways but i prefer held due to that's how I learned. If/When it changes I will be ready! I do the throw behind when I need to get more height. It is somewhat harder but works way better for large gaps.

    It is still super easy to just throw the bomb behind you . . .

    Light bomb,
    at 20 (on the lil timer on bomb)
    jump
    shield backwards
    throw bomb.

    There is a video somewhere, I'll try to find it . . . Nope, the one I remembered was the superhero bomb jump in the big knight guide. Someone with fraps or something could make a new video though, I'm not setup to make videos.

    If all you knew how to do was held jumps, you don't deserve to bomb jump anymore...

    All of the jumps except that and the up throw still work exactly the same.

    Though I agree with this, I have something to add:

    Not being able to adapt to non held bomb jumping, and or complaining that you want it back warrants you not deserving to bomb jump. I learned to bomb jump on held bomb jumping, but I was able to adapt, so will anyone else that "deserves" to.

    I never bothered to learn because held was easy and dependable. I'm so ashamed.

    there are substantial differences between hand held and thrown bomb jumps. The nuances make it so that both play a different role; hand helds are a hell of a lot more viable in accuracy and fluid movement while thrown gives massive distance in comparison. I'm no real expert at thrown bomb jumping, but it seems a lot more fickle as its accuracy varies with lag. But lag determines whether or not hand-held will work in the first place ;(, even if its accuracy and distance are almost entirely player controlled.

    IMO thrown's supposed superiority is entirely because of its undue reverence based on age and an inane l2P attitude shown to people who hand-held. They're different, it doesn't mean that hand-held bugs shouldn't be fixed because it's newer :|

    You guys are bomb jumping all wrong, I will try to record a video but my way is way more superior. I will tell you how to do it. (By the way I found this out when my 5 year old bro was playing in sword fight and he spammed ladders around with editor.)
    Anyway, make a tower or a bunch of ladders that you can bomb jump into, (Most of you should know that you go super-fast when you jump out?)
    Then light another bomb, and when the timer is 60-70 start your slash,
    then jump out and your slash should carry you for ages then your bomb jumps you even more! :O

    i use the old fashion held jumping,
    once you can actually start doing it successfully:
    you can get you the furthest distance and heights than the other jumps
    It can also be used in emergancy escape situations like in a battle fields
    the only problem is any lag and your gone but then you just tap the "F" key and it should mostly save you.
    I LOVE BOMB JUMPING <3 <3 <3 :b_shop::b_shop: :b_shop:

    today i was in a battle field and i had like 4 knights hacking at me while i was holding a bomb i didnt throw it because of stun, yet it exploded and killed 4 of them and jumped me about 10 blocks into the air, i managed to escape easilly from there,
    But how did it happen??

    I think i have accidently done that before when i got attacked on a tower when doing a held jump, that explains abit.
