i can probably count on my fingers how many times ive had nova bombs just hit walls to the side of me instead of launching forward, but that isnt a reason to ignore this, nova bomb should launch from the center of your character, and not from your hand. using a nova bomb initiates the animation which puts your hand backwards and to the side. unfortunately the nova bomb ALSO comes from your hand for some reason. this leads to infrequent but pvp-altering outcomes where a nova would have killed 1 or 2 people instead of just blowing up on the user because of poor game design. if it isnt obvious i really hate how the nova bomb launch works, i would sincerely appreciate it if this is somehow fixed, though i know that probably wont be the case on something so trivial
