==Shard Bombs==
 +
I've been working on observations of all the shard bombs over [[User:Eek5/Shard_Bombs|here]].  I think that the mechanics behind all the shard bombs are similar enough (read: identical) that we can condense all of the shard bombs into a single category.  The only differences between the bombs are damage and the two status bombs so they don't need individual sections.

Something like this would be sufficient:
 +
* [[Deadly_Shard_Bomb|Deadly Shard Bomb]] [[File:Attack_normal_icon.png|15px]]
 +
* [[Deadly_Crystal_Bomb|Deadly Crystal Bomb]] [[File:Attack_elemental_icon.png|15px]]

:Yes, please. Seeing the bombs next to each other, with their damage types and statuses clearly marked, with no extraneous text, is really helpful. [[User:Jdavis|Jdavis]] 18:42, 18 August 2012 (UTC)

In the Arsenal forum, we get asked all the time about shields (and sidearm guns and swords) for bombers. The most recent example is [http://forums.spiralknights.com/en/node/71542 here]. This Bombing Guide briefly mentions Owlite Shield for a "rookie" bomber. Please add more shield and sidearm advice. [[User:Jdavis|Jdavis]] 02:48, 29 December 2012 (UTC)

Myself and Zeddy are working on reworking the guide, some parts from scratch, to bring it more up-to-date since honestly the older revisions were extremely outdated, and other bits were put bluntly, needless obtuse. Not to mention the video section was more of an 'advertise certain channels' rather than an actual resource for aspiring bomber to find content.

So expect to see a lot more revisions over the next few weeks, any questions or suggestions should go below.
