Pasting this here since it's the official Bungie website.
Basically just the title. Nova Bomb doesn't really work that great as an ad clear super, or at least not enough to get the full 50% super regen easily or in a way that is more useful than several other options for voidwalker. Changing it to grant bonus super energy for collecting Void Breeches would give it a similar gameplay loop to Geomags on Chaos Reach. It might need to give more energy per pickup though since void breaches do not come to you.
Or perhaps make it so that dealing damage with Volatile Rounds or getting kills with Volatile Rounds grants bonus super energy. This or the other method would lean more into the overall void gameplay loop with the verbs and all that jazz.
I would also consider the option to gain Repulsor Brace overshields on void breach pickups somehow in there.
Something, anything other than just getting super energy based on the number of Nova Bomb kills. It just feels like that style of super energy regen is outdated for Nova Bomb in the sandbox of today, and the exotic overall does not provide benefits on par with the current sandbox offerings.
