Share your Monster Bomb tips

Most people agree that Monster Bomb isn't quite the best skill in Dual Blades wide skill arsenal, but some people ( like me ) like to use it just for fun even if it means that you need to concentrate some more and have some extra character control. Sometimes there's actually situations where it's a handy thing to have. So, do share your ideas and tips on where and how to use it. I'm only level 136 when I'm writing this, so my Bomb is just level 1 for experimenting (fun) purposes. Although I did put my point in it when I was about level 125 or so.

My two cents where I use it;
-When Papping and I fall down from the platform, he tends to Dispel me every now and then. When that happens I usually throw a monster bomb on him and then Flash jump to the right side to re-buff. The bomb goes off while I'm buffing and gives some additional damage.
-When I'm finished killing a big mob of, say Rextons, sometimes there's one monster that has just itty bitty of HP left from the FA+TS combo. I could just US it to death, but that's boring So I throw a Monster bomb on him and flash jump away to the next bomb. And if I'm lucky, by the time the bomb goes off some more monsters have spawned around the first bombing victim.

Now it's your turn to share Let's make this skill more recognized!

I use it every time I boss, soon as the CD goes away. Who doesnt like leaping in air and sending cursed explosive paper to your enemies?

I think you mean flash bang, monster bomb is a 4th job skill.

Do you mean like taking the Monster Bomb damage instead of Final Cut damage? I don't know if that works, since FC doesn't make you blink and you can get killed if you hit a monster right after you are done cutting o: Will have to try that out though once I level.
