With only a few corner cases, sword shattered shield long ago in raiding.
The idea that the Avatar nerf compensated the Bubble pop is quaint.
The Avatar was the whipped topping.
Raiding is about IEDs.
It’s been about IEDs for years.
Given the long term dev silence on the topic, this is likely exactly as intended. Telekinetic instant fabrication explosives are, were, and seem likely to always be the way war is conducted in this game.
The only places not weak to Magic Bomb factory have been stripped of their invulnerability.
This one had hoped the Age of War would see some real adjustment to the Bomberman 3D sequel… But no.
As explosives dominance must never be challenged (regardless of how not at all relevant in lore it is) God Bubbles won’t come back as they were. Which is a shame, because if they got some modification, they could be a good anti-sorcery tool. No Bats or Ice Bridges above or into the area protected. No Thunderstorms called upon it and no performance tanking tissue zombie plagues from beneath.
