• Effect: Apply 1 Bom to target
• Category: Debuff

Bom Charm causes the equipped unit to apply 1 Bom to its target when it attacks. Bom is a debuff that causes the target to explode after a delay, dealing damage to nearby units. This adds a persistent area-of-effect threat to the equipped unit's attacks.

Bom is a deceptively powerful debuff. Unlike direct damage, Bom creates a ticking time bomb on the enemy — when it detonates, it damages surrounding units, potentially creating chain reactions in dense enemy formations. A single Bom applied every attack can quickly accumulate into multiple live bombs scattered across the battlefield.

The charm's strength is in board control and passive area damage. Even if the equipped unit has low attack power, the recurring Bom applications create mounting pressure that enemies cannot easily avoid.

The downside is that Bom has a delay before detonating, meaning the enemy may have already attacked before the explosion goes off. Against fast enemies or in short fights, the Bom may not trigger before the battle ends. Against slow or tanky multi-wave enemies, Bom accumulation is extremely powerful.

Best on a fast-Counter unit that attacks frequently, to stack Bom applications quickly. A unit with Barrage that hits multiple enemies simultaneously spreads Bom across the row, setting up chain explosions.

Avoid on Consume (イッカイ) units that only activate once — a single Bom application has limited impact without follow-up stacking.

• Boonfire Charm: Applies Overload (バクハツスンゼン) on Consume, which stacks with Bom for dual explosive pressure
• Frenzy Charm: Multiple hits per activation means multiple Bom applications stacked quickly
• Any multi-target attacker: Spreading Bom to several enemies at once accelerates chain explosions
• Bombskull Charm: Another source of AoE damage that combines with Bom explosions for board-wide pressure
