For anyone wondering, the explosion damage is shared with the weapon's base damage. This means that in order to get the full value of your damage, you need to hit the enemy with the shot AND the explosion to get the total damage amount. This also means that if you equip "punch through" mods on the weapon to prevent self-damage you're essentially cutting the overall damage almost in half.

With an already lower damage compared to the normal version, if you add any "punch through" you are further lowering the damage it offers. This makes it one of the worst Primed weapons released to date. Even the Spira Prime with its terrible accuracy at launch wasn't this bad.

I'm hoping DE changes the explosive shots as an alt-fire mode to give players the option to use normal arrows or exploding arrows depending on their playstyle, but, this is DE we're dealing with here and we all know how they don't listen to players and how long it takes them to do anything.
