Manic Bombard

Manic Bombards are modified Grineer Bombards developed by Tyl Regor, introduced in the Operation Tubemen of Regor Event as the event's main mission target.

Tactics

 * Like the Manic, they are able to teleport and vanish to avoid damage, though far less frequently. Manic Bombards will try to maintain a medium distance to their targets, and will teleport if an enemy gets too close.
 * Despite their name, Manic Bombards wield Gorgons instead of an AT Ogris.
 * The Manic Bombard has the ability to throw a cluster grenade that splits into smaller grenades on impact, causing substantial damage within it's radius.
 * Unlike other heavy Grineer units, they cannot use Seismic Shockwave against nearby enemies.

Tips

 * Mesa's Peacemaker ability can track and damage the Manic Bombard even while it's invisible and teleporting as long as the Regulator Pistols initially connect with the Manic Bombard, allowing for quick and easy kills.
 * Likewise, Trinity's Link and Nova's Molecular Prime can make the Manic Bombard easier to spot and damage, even while it is invisible.
 * It is possible for Manic Bombard to spawn as an Eximus variant, giving it the appropriate buffs.

Trivia

 * The Gorgons that Manic Bombards wield are grey-colored Desert Camo skins of said weapon, making the Manic Bombard the first unit to use a repainted weapon skin.
 * The Manic Bombard is the only unit that can be either a Sabotage target or an Assassination target, depending on which faction the player supported.
