Useless SS Fact

[Xog]

I learned last week that all bombs in an arena deal the same amount of damage. The only difference between L1 - L3 is the blast radius. Therefore a lev bomb hitting you 1-10 tiles away is doing the same damage as a jav bomb hitting you 0-2 tiles away.

This holds true for any zone.

correct, each arena has its own settings; bomb damage, bullet damage, etc. It just so happens that a lot of the arenas in TW are set around to TW's public arena settings, as is similar with most other zones.

ex: Bomb damage in pub could be set to something like 2500 dmg, while in ?go art, they are set to 150 dmg.

I'm pretty sure it's the same. EMP just has an EMP radius therefor it stops you from regenerating energy for a few seconds if the bomb explodes within that radius. The time you are EMP'd is dependent on the distance from which the bomb exploded as well.
