Geth Bomber

The Geth Bomber is a geth unit encountered in Mass Effect 3.

Capabilities
Offensive

Geth Bombers will try and close range with their target. They will then proceed to attack by doing a quick flyover forward, dropping 4 bombs in their wake. These bombs explode after a few seconds, dealing moderate damage each, but the damage can quickly add up. If they have just performed a bombing run, or cannot do it due to terrain, they will attack with a moderately weak close ranged shock attack.

Defensive

Geth Bombers are protected by moderate shields and armor. Their small profile makes them difficult targets to hit with gunfire. If under fire, they will sometimes rapidly juke sideways to avoid incoming attacks.

Tactics

 * In any difficulty of silver or above, distance is key. Even if they do not bomb you, the stun attack will stagger you, usually exposing you to a rain of gunfire from troopers or primes.
 * Powers like Overload or Energy Drain are useful against them, but best not to rely on them.
 * Be wary of them, unlike basically any other Geth unit, you will not know they're there until there are bombs in your lap. They are completely silent.
 * The Scorpion is fairly useful against them as they have a habit of moving a lot, including vertically, sticky grenades help with that.
 * Paired with Pyros, Geth Bombers can become a real nightmare if you and your squad are bunkered down in a single area, since they can bomb you and your squad while the Pyro is pinning you. Combined with other geth firing upon you, said enemies can inflict massive damage to everyone in the area. Deal with the Pyros, or the bombers, depending on the scenario before they have a chance to get close and do some serious damage.
 * An Asari Justicar is more than capable of both protecting the squad from significant damage from these bombers and dealing good damage because they can also Reave bombers, which under stressful situations can give you and your squad the edge you may need.
