Official Details

Description

The Acrobat carries 3 different types of Bomb around. When a Bomb explodes, it will temporarily change the ground's surface, creating a circular zone. Hunters stepping into this zone during the Aftereffect period will be affected by its effects, and thus returning the ground immediately to its original state.

Sticky Bomb
Reduces Hunter's movement speed by 30%. If the Hunter is hit by the exploding Sticky Bomb or if the Hunter is repeatedly affected by Aftereffects within a short duration, the Hunter's movement speed will be reduced by 35%.

Nitro Bomb
Reduces Hunter's interaction speed by 35%. If the Hunter is hit by the exploding Nitro Bomb or if the Hunter is repeatedly affected by Aftereffects within a short duration, the Hunter's Interaction Speed will be reduced by 40%.

Fire Bomb
Burns Hunters and disables all Hunter abilities for 5 second(s). If the Hunter is hit by the exploding Fire Bomb or if the Hunter is repeatedly affected by Aftereffects within a short duration, all Hunter abilities will be disabled for 8 second(s).

How to use
Tap on the Ability button to leap forward and throw a Bomb. After landing, the Acrobat will perform a forward somersault, which can be orientated by directing the joystick. Hold the Ability button to charge and choose a landing area. However, colliding with objects while leaping will cause the Acrobat to fall immediately.

Statistics

• Initial quantity of each bomb type: 1
• Cooldown: 12 seconds

Other Details

• Direct hits from the bomb reduces the hunter's movement and interaction speed even further, and extend the silence duration for the Hunters from using their abilities.
  • Same goes if the Hunter repeatedly steps on the bomb's aftereffects or gets hit by another Acrobat's bombs.
• Fire Bombs does not disable Hunter's passive abilities and persona talents.
  • Excluding the persona talent Hunt as it ends due to Control Effect as said in its description but the countdown still applies.
• If timed poorly, Fire Bombs can reset the hunter's attack recovery animation as the hunter's animation to the fire overlaps with their attack recovery animation.
