The Bomb Jump is the act of using a bomb or similar explosive to reach greater heights in a fast way. Because of the nature of explosives, it can be a dangerous and hard task to do. Since only Knights can use bombs, and can land in a safer way by using their parachute, it is more common to see Bomb Jumps executed with them, but one could execute it with another player.

Dangers

The nature of explosives makes the Bomb Jump a difficult task, which requires skill. If not executed in a correct manner, it can damage nearby entities, including structures, allies and enemies. The launch executed by the Bomb Jump is also dangerous itself, depending on how the player will land. Landing in a harsh way will, of course, do damage and possibly kill.

How-to

To execute a Bomb Jump one must do one of the next.

• Hold onto the bomb until the counter is near 20~30 after that jump in the air with your shield up.
  
• Throw a bomb next to you, depending on how close you are to the bomb it swings you into a direction.
  
• Defend against an enemy bomb.
  
• Additionally, a knight can jump off a structure while holding a bomb and shield glide. This is more accurate and will usually produce a longer, higher bomb jump. However, unlike the shielded bomb jump, if performed incorrectly (ex. Jump off structure when bomb monitor is a deep red), the knight will be blown to bits.
