Bomb Toss

Overview

Bomb Toss is one of the 10 unique skills that can be learned from Frogidi's Fortunes.
Bomb Toss has 18 alternative colors that change the hue of the bomb shell and the smoke after the explosion.

The timing for the Action Command is at the moment the bomb is visible in the player's hand and shortly before it is thrown.
Succeeding the Action Command performs a 'Critical!' hit, increasing the amount Damage dealt to the target by 1.

Usage

Bomb Toss deals a decent amount of Damage to one enemy and inflicting the Stun status, as well as dealing 1 Damage to all other enemies.

Compared to the other 1 SP cost Frogidi's Fortune skills: Fire Claw and Lightning Spear, Bomb Toss deals unequal amounts of Damage across enemies and can inflict Stun.

Bomb Toss is comparable to the Stunning Vine Trap skill, with both inflicting an action-disabling status and costing 1 SP. The main difference is that Vine Trap deals all its damage to one target and that Stuck does not disable the ability to use items.

The Stun and surrounding Damage is what sets Bomb Toss apart from the rest, however, neither are very useful in combat. Just like Slap, Bomb Toss has some good usage against Wraiths to avoid their Evil Impact.

Against Corruption 1 enemies, the surrounding Damage from Bomb Toss is fully blocked by their 1 Defense, making this less ideal.

Against Corruption 2+ enemies, they are immune to Stun as well as the surrounding Damage, nullifying to two niche parts of Bomb Toss.

Overall, Bomb Toss is only slightly better than Slap for its higher Damage. By the time the player reaches Frogville Road, every enemy has at least 1 Defense as well, rendering the surrounding Damage fully blocked.

Notes

• The Stun status will not be inflicted if no Damage was dealt or if the target has the Stun Guard status.
• The Bandit King and Bedrock, as with all Corruption 2+ enemies, are immune to the Stun status.
• The surrounding Damage of Bomb Toss scales with the user's Power and can be further increased with Power Up.

Trivia

• A similar skill called Gift Grenade is used exclusively by Snowmen.
• Bomb Toss can be used by Corruption 2+ Snowmen and Corruption 3 Daiseyes and Fungeyes.
