but seriously, they become immune to being hit by powers during animations, so if its about to do a bombing, or in the middle of a bombing, your powers will miss. lag makes this problem much worse because you can't tell when its starting its animation til long after

They even dodge hit scan powers those little bosh'tets. Better to wait untill they dodge for the first time, and use powers after that. No dodging then, 99,98% power hit ratio.

I find the most reliable way to connect powers with Bombers is through radius. Overload or Energy Drain the guy next to them and they get hit everytime. Obviously this strategy is situational but it's the best deal your gonna get. **** the Geth.

Nah. This is powers cast way before they even begin bombing runs or any other animation. They're just floating along not giving a damn about mah overload thrown their way.

It's when they're moving laterally. If they're going towards you or away from you, your powers will never miss.


I've noticed that too. Not sure if it's always the case but powers do seem to hit much more frequently if they're not moving parallel to you.

 I've heard different opinions on how to specifically make powers more likely to connect when used against Bombers.

-I've heard scoped in power use makes it more likely to connect, not true IMHO or experience.
-I've also head that having the hit box targeted a little longer makes power more likely to hit but IDK that it's true either.
-The one thing I have noticed that doesn't fail is shooting them first then power useage, seems to always connect.

Opinions on why powers miss? 


Bad coding, lack of QA, lazy developers who DGAF, etc etc etc.

They behave just like Dragoons. Shoot them and they'll dodge and then they're open for powers. I never saw bombers dodge twice in a row.

Speaking of Dragoons, my power combos only detonate on them about 50% of the time.  It's not a matter of them dodging, because I even get dud explosions from using Overload to detonate fire explosions, or they will stagger from my Throw without any combo detonating.
