The only thing bomb lance needs to be introduced to viability is custom ammos. Imagine launching concertina, fire, poison,or flash bombs. (Flash might be op) The big draw of this wouldn't be meta for kills, but it could drastically free up tool and consumable slots for crazy versatility. All that being said, quartermaster bomb lance + Obrez mace is a great build already. I just want to launch a concertina bomb into a bush containing a Cain sweatlord and laugh.

Just a tip: it actually IS possible to safely kill an immolator with the BL, it just requires hitting it with the very tip of the heavy swing and turning away just in time taking advantage of the curved swing. It's difficult to pull off though and not reliable.

@Peagaporto Жыл бұрын
Hey, homereel , PC bomblance veteran here, lot's of wisdom there. Here's my take on it. Most people get frustrated with the bomblance because it goes against your muscle memory and because they try to play it like a weird crossbow with a melee attachment. The blade is your killer, the dart is there for support. What I mean by this is that a lot of people shoot the dart, miss, which is very easy to do with it, then swich to the secondary and start blasting. When you get good with it 95% of your kills with it are melee with the odd stick here and there, bulwark wont scare you here. I saw 2 moments on the video just like that, people are not used to rely on the melee rush. I pair the bomblance with a hand crossbow with half poison. This may seen like insanity but there is a logic to it. It greatly increases your stealth factor, so you have a bigger chance of getting the drop on someone, it kills easily immolators and the assassin (which the bomblance struggles with) and provides 1hk at range. So when you charge someone and they turn and run, you just switch to the xbow and shoot them in the back. If you miss, then you try with the bomblance bolt. It also clears a tool slot, which is important, more on that later. What about firefights? Well, avoid them. If you get ambush retreat and try to counter ambush when they chase you. Plan ahead and dont get caught in the open. Your goal is to get to the boss lair asap becase that's where you shine. You get the hang of not relying on a pistol after some time, you are not trying to play everyone else game. For tools medkit and all the tripwires (alert, poison, concertina), consumables are vit, antidote, concertina and flash. Bomblance should get you the boss lair very fast due to how little AI slows you down, banish and turn the lair in a hazard zone. Think home alone, but with a serial killer. Concertina bomb the more open area then trap every barrel, walkway, etc. Don't trap the doors, you want them inside and door traps are easier to spot. Put poison clouds everywhere with the hand crossbow. Now, if someone peek inside, shoot them with the the dart or the bolt. When they get inside, listen until they are close enough that you can rush then while giving as little reaction time as possible. If they just camp outside grab a bounty and run, they will probably try to grab one before chasing you and trip all over the place. If someone banishes firt, dart a door to open it, throw a flash inside then rush in. Yes, you can get a shotgun to the face, that's always a risk, you "just" need to be faster and more agressive than them. Or you can trap the exits and hang around to see if they try to leave(only do this if you have poacher). Your hunter levels very fast and gets lots of traits through meatheads. Priority one is as you said, silent killer and light step. Then its frontiersman for more traps, determination, doctor, physician, ghoul, packmule, gator legs, grayhound, yada yada. Dont waste points with adrenaline, you are already dead when you need it. The new conduit is a godsend as well, probably shuld be acquired soon too. Whispersmith is cool but not really necessary, same for poacher. This loadout got me a lot of lvl 50 hunters and its my most consistent bounty extracted. Oh yeah, play this solo, this doesnt do very well on teams, where combined arms are more important than trickery. Works very well until 5 stars, but again, you have to completely rework your playstyle.

Fun fact: The swing of the bomb lance's melee is more of a spiral then a true arc with the longest reach being on the right side at the start of the swing and the shortest being on the left at the end. Aim way to the left to hit targets father away. Done correctly, with a jump backwards you can even light off a immolator without taking damage, then come in with a second swing for the kill.

I probably have more game time with the bomb lance than most people. (I have 3k hours and I probably spent 600 of them with the bomblance) In general I likely have more melee kills than I do from shooting. However, I don't think the bomblance is worth running at all right now. Here's why... Bulwark) Same reason I stopped running explosive crossbow. They're great weapons until you run into someone using this perk and it's an absolute shame than even if you manage to somehow land a headshot, you're not killing them. Price) It's $200. For almost half that price I can buy a winfield talon which also one shot melees people but can also headshot people at 193 meters, lever through 3 walls, and there's no perks going to resist the damage you do. Ammo Types) There are none. I could see the bomblance being more viable if it had ammo like a flash bomb or such so that you could avoid the bulwark weakness. Until it gets something like that, just use a talon weapon instead.

The Bomblance is just one of those quintessential weapons for a certain game. Quake has the Rocket Launcher, Rail Gun. Doom has the BFG and SSG. Hunt... well actually hunt has a lot of shit, but the Bomblance is just mwah. perfect fit for the setting. An aggressively utilitarian weapon, born out of necessity, it is the kind of delightfully brutish contraption that you can see forming out of a 20th Century mind faced with the problem at hand, you can practically see the design being born out in the author's head, iteration, smithing, machining, and the first forays of the weapon leading to success! Its not the best gun and that is more than fine: it is the right one.
