Bombardier is a ranged intelligence hero in Heroes of Newerth.

Info[ | ]

Lore: Brother of the famed evil scientist that became Dr. Repulsor, the Bombardier uses his wild mind to aid the Legion. Just a few years ago, the two brothers made amazing technical wonders together. But the Hellbourne arose and corrupted Repulsor, leaving the Bombardier with a fierce sense of vengeance. Bombardier, along with faithful assistant Twitch, uses his various inventions and dangerous toys to beat the Hellbourne back into hell so far that they will finally release their evil grip on his brother.
 
  Bombardier can use his array of damaging abilities to both harass over time and quickly mow down single targets. Dominates middle lane in the laning phase.

Abilities[ | ]

Sticky Bomb
[ Q ]
Bombardier Sticky Bomb
Cast Time: 0 / 0.5 seconds
Target Position Enemy Units
Type - Magic
Bombardier uses his sticky concoction to allow him to throw bombs that stick to the first surface they touch - with controlled explosive results.
Range: 650/700/750/800
Radius: 125
Mana Cost: 105/115/125/135
Cooldown: 14 seconds
Throws a Sticky Bomb that sticks to the nearest enemy or friendly unit within 100 radius or at target position.

Once deployed, activate again to detonate the Sticky Bomb, dealing 100/180/260/340 Magic Damage to enemies in a 250 radius. Otherwise, the Sticky Bomb can be primed for up to 6 seconds, increasing the Stun duration by 1 seconds for every 2 seconds spent priming (3 second Stun max). Minimum of a 0.2 second Stun.

Provides 500 day and night vision around the Sticky Bomb. The Sticky Bomb can be destroyed in 2 hits if it's not stuck to a unit.

Someone set up us the bomb!
 
Notes
  • Can be double activated to toss the Sticky Bomb at your current location.
  • The Sticky Bomb can be detonated even while Stunned or Silenced.
  • The Sticky Bomb lands at its target position after 0.5 seconds, regardless of distance.
  • Sticky Bomb can be stuck to ally units, but it does not damage or stun allied units.
  • The Sticky Bomb sticks to the closest unit within the search radius, prioritizing enemy heroes, then enemy units, then ally heroes, then ally units.
  • If the unit the Sticky Bomb is stuck to dies, the Sticky Bomb immediately explodes.
  • If a Sticky Bomb that isn't stuck to a unit is destroyed by an enemy, it does not explode.


Bombardment
[ W ]
Bombardier Bombardment

Mana Cost: 85/95/105/115
Cooldown: 12 seconds
Bombards the target area with 4 waves of cannonballs over 2 seconds. Each wave deals 25/35/45/55 Magic Damage and applies a tapering 70% Movement Speed Slow for 1 second.

Notes
  • Creates a wave of cannonballs every 0.5 seconds.

  • The random landing points of the cannonballs are cosmetic, and do not affect the damage radius.


Boom Dust
[ E ]
Bombardier Boom Dust
Passive
Bombardier tosses his excess bombs onto target enemy or allied unit. When the target takes damage, the bombs cause an AoE explosion, hurting enemy units.
Range: 250
Passively causes Bombardier to deal 20/30/40/50 Magic Damage (75% to non-hero units) in a 250 radius around an enemy unit when Bombardier autoattacks an enemy unit.

Boom Dust also damages & applies on a single target when Bombardier damages that target in another manner. Can only occur four times on a single target every 15 seconds.
