Last night I killed someone. I thought I was fighting a mesmer, but I could be wrong. Downed them. Then I got hit for 6k damage by Smoke Bomb.

How does that happen? Smoke Bomb is a thief skill (downed state afaik) and does not do damage.

Is this a bug? Should I report it? I took a screenshot of it, if needed. But I wasn’t sure if the guy just finished a combo or something using Smoke Bomb (is Smoke Bomb a finisher?).

It was obviously a mesmer disguised as a thief, who used some burst skill imitating a smoke bomb. The mesmer wasn’t downed, it was just your imagination.

Engineer’s have smoke bomb, too. However, I thought it just created a smoke field with no damage.

Smoke Bomb is also a skill of the Illusionary Rogue (#3 downed state mesmer illusion) and it hits incredibly hard.

That might have been it. Thanks Med. I’ll look at the screen again and see if I can find the pet. Good call!
