LvL 3 bombs vs lvl 4 or 5 pigs?
It used to be two, but since the update, can 1 kill them?

Still two
the damage multiplier is 1.5
Though, 1 giant bomb and 3 little bombs (level 6) will now also do the trick
I haven't seen them in action yet, but I can do basic math:
Level 5 hog rider: 475 hit points
Giant bomb damage: 250
Bombs do x1.5 damage to hogs:
Result: 375 damage < 475 hit points.
Does anyone know if lvl6 bombs look different from the lvl5 ones? No biggy, just curious.
Level 1 giant bomb = 175 damage.
Bombs now deal 1.5x damage to hogs.
175x1.5 = 262.5
262.5x2 (double stacked bombs) = 525 HP.
Level 5 maxed hogs have 475 HP.
This basically means a th7 with double stacked bombs (deep in the base) can smash the level 5 hogs that you spent 150k dark elixir and 44 days of your lab upgrade time to upgrade.
Don't waste any dark elixir on upgrading hogs or even training them.
Gem one to find out. :pQuote:

I've been doing hog runs since the update. The bombs aren't nearly the problem the unlureable heroes are. One bomb will drop a lvl5 hog pack about 75%, but the radius seems smaller, so two stacked bombs aren't going off at once, allowing time for a heal spell to recover the hogs. I may just have not tested it enough, but I don't think the tweak to bombs ruins hogging. I've been 3-starring mid-level th9 bases as before, it just takes more hogs, the heroes, the cc, and 4 heal spells to do it, whereas before it just took the hogs and 3 heal spells.Quote:

No need for double or quad bombs anymore. One giant bomb 375 + 2 small bombs 84 = 459 damage can be put in a 3x2 space and will weaken hogs enough for wiz tower to one shot a group. No more need for those very obvious 4x2 spaces.
Maybe don't just hold for finger on the screen in one spot when deploying hogs.... =]
Most of the high level hoggers Ive seen from itd ect tend to have a line of hogs so I wouldn't think they will be too effected by this since its not only large pack
Glad the dominance of the hogs is going away. More of a level playing field for everyone.Quote:
