How to play Imps now with Bomber Nerf?
Hi guys, just wondering for PVP, how do players play to win with Imps now that the Bomber is nerfed?
Would appreciate experience players input from both New Republic and Imps point of view.

From my PoV barely anything changed. I've flown the Bomber a lot and I barely felt the difference, I had maybe ONE failed attack run.
Very minor nerf at best.
Just keep doing what you've been doing and it will still work nearly as well.
I agree with the others, the nerf was not nearly enough, and Tie Suicide Bombers making kamikaze explosion runs at capital ships are still a very real thing, and a one-way (and one-note) path to an easy victory. Last match I played had 5x Tie Bombers splayed across the victory screen. It makes MP extremely boring and there's little reason to play until this gets fixed.
The most entertaining games I played yesterday were first with and then against a 4-person team of Imperials who must have had a house rule to *not* use Tie Bombers, because in the two matches we played together they did not use any Tie Bombers.
So the PVP community feels that TIE Bomber needs stronger nerf.
Any Top Rank players disagree?
I fly the bomber the same as I always have. No change.
TTKs in general need to go down; a good bounce should be the end, not an inconvenience.
This remains blindingly true with bombers - a five bomber charge should be Light Brigade 2.0, and instead it remains a depressingly effective way to kill caps and gun down some of the enemy players on the way in.
