Hold up, are you insinuating that Nova bomb doesn't put you in danger? cause if that's the case i disagree greatly my friend, it puts you in danger more times than thundecrash ever could cause you need to get relatively close to use both novabombs especially the bottom tree, sure you can use top tree nova bomb far away but you're sacrificing consistency which is.... IT HAVE A MIND OF ITS OWN meaning it often tracks enemies that you don't want when you clearly throw it at the designated target direction and sometimes it doesn't track at all and decides to go sightseeing. Whereas thundercrash can be use anywhere and you have relatively good control to whom you want to bodyslam. i agree the buffs don't seem that appealing but just wait and test it out for yourself. Oh and also : you can't possibly think that Thundercrash should output more damage than Og Novabomb who've been in the game before thunder crash was ever born, you better but some respect on Novabombs name :)
