i'll provide another vid soon as it's done uploading. it's of me jumping around and deadly bombing some junk mob using no other attacks and my DB is lvl 1. I had tested previously on a dozen other mobs, multiple times each, and this was the first instance in which it did do what appears to be a second tick. If you check the requiem wiki it indicates it only deals damage once. If it does do two ticks per cast, reliably, at levels above level one, then that indicates a change in how this skill functions as far as I know. Way way way long time ago, it used to blow up every 2 seconds for 10s duration, but then it changed to a one time explosion, with that phantom animation on cast that does look explodey but caused no dmg.it's lvl 5.. and tried it twice.. once to see how it works.. second time to fraps it
anyway, link or vid coming. again, after about 30 or 40 casts of deadly bomb, on a couple different mob types, at level 1, I only got that 2nd explosion one single time. I'd be curious to know what other people observe now with deadly bomb, at various levels, and if it is causing damage more than once at levels above lvl 1, then someone might want to determine what lvl it occurs at, and update the wiki.

you'll need a higher lvl defiler that actualy took the deadly bomb as a skill and maxed it out or something
well, here's my result. and again, it was the same for me on a couple handfuls of boars and hammerinas before this mob in this vid. This one vid alone was 1.8 GB raw. considering beta testing ended like two years ago, I , sir, am done, lol. Anyone else wanna test this out and report their findings maybe?

look at the damage you first did.. and see how much of the boars hp goes down when you throw the second bomb..

yea i saw the same thing and chalked it up to maybe the hp bar of the mob extended a bit further to the right than the green bit you see, but it's not that. it is as you say it's doing like double damage on the first tic. Here's where it gets somewhat more interesting. I have been testing since last post on similar mobs around same area. From what I observed, every time the spell is initially cast, it does that double damage on the very first tic, but typically not afterwards (typically as in like 90%-ish of the time or so, only one tic for 185 dmg and no additional extra dmg later). Now, the spell is counted as a DOT so the dmg doesnt show up in combat log, but it does show in numbers over the mob. There was never a number to denote any dmg larger than the smaller tics of 185 that showed later. This first tic also showed 185 dmg but did indeed, as you noted, drop the HP of the mob more than that number indicates.you missed something in the vid.. you can see the additional damage there..look at the damage you first did.. and see how much of the boars hp goes down when you throw the second bomb..
Upshot, imho: the reason for you that it;s 100% reproducible is that you have a high lvl of deadly bomb, coupled with the fact that your friend has low enough HP to die on that first, bugged, double tick.
I did additional testing and found sometimes with multiple mobs, DB would do a double tic on one mob, but not on others that got splash dmg from the exact same cast. Overall, for me, it was only one tick, with the exception of the first tic on the mob i directly targetted, which was always that 2x expected damage. And ofc, that one boar that got a double tic on that last time i casted DB on it.
It's bugged.

1- No, it never crits, ever
2- I tested long enough and i found that it allways dmg twice, at least for me. The problem is the second dmg is not shown. When you hit some1 with the bomb it does nothig, 5 secs later BOOOOOM you see the green numbers and the hp drops, and some 5 oters secs later the hp goes down again, but you see no green number.
Dont it ever happened to you that you are about to cast arrow of ruin on a group of mobs and then out of nothing your targuet dies before you cast and then the others mobs kill you?? Well..... thank deadly bomb for that!!!
Ive tested a lot and thats the conclusions i got.
Feel free to -_- my post, i almost never read after exept in marketplace
Best of Luck, Dess

I think this makes the skill great for not only pvp but raids aswell. I've been maxing mine and have/will be maxing its DNA aswell.

mb for pvp its good but for pve/raids its meh.
bisk/rh have not that great resist with elem buff i hit like 1.4k with temp or sth like that and u cant use deadly bomb on tyrant can u?
Yes I used it on tyrant and hitting 2k on raid bosses doesn't sound bad to me. I think i crit biskra 1.2 or so on nukes. I may have been ele buffed.
Persoanlly I max arrow of ruin and deadly bomb. Casting Bomb then ruin is a great killer. Very nice spike damage.

i meant how long it takes to dmg?
5 sec for first tick and if u lucky another 5 sec for 2nd one?
u might as well cast 2 or 3 aoes in that time = more dmg
only good use is in pvp imo cos with aoes u will hit about 700 on capped res people so deadly bomb is neat cos its like aoe crit
