Bro Bomb
- “Force alone will not avail you. Stand back from the stone. Your Bonds... put them to use. Open your hearts, and believe in one another. Then the stone will crumble. Show me the power of fire and ice that dwells within you. Fire and ice... opposing forces. Make them one through the power of your Bond. Focus... and believe... That's the way! Now! Release your heart's scream, and let all your power flow at once!”
- —Great Conductor, Mario & Luigi: Brothership
The Bro Bomb is a Bros. Move in Mario & Luigi: Brothership. This move is executed by holding or
while using Fire & Ice. This will cause Mario and Luigi to charge up a bomb made of fire and ice. Once the bomb is fully charged, releasing
or
will launch the bomb forward, where it will explode upon making contact with a surface. The Bro Bomb can destroy giant boulders that hammers cannot scratch, and is also used on a giant door blocking the entrance to Fortress Zokket as well as the entrance to the Soli-Tree. If the Bro Bomb hits an enemy, the enemy will be hit with a First Strike, dealing lots of damage to the enemy.
The move is taught by the Great Conductor after Mario and Luigi find themselves on Conductor Island for the second time. The Bro Bomb is also used during the first phase of Reclusa's battle, when the fiend charges up with fire or ice after being caught up with and is successfully extinguished by the opposite element; should Mario and Luigi successfully launch the bomb, Reclusa will be stunned for a turn. Mario and Luigi also use this move to block a dark energy blob that Weeping Reclusa launches as they prepare to enter the monster's maw.
