build it with elementals like corrossive and/ or radiation and crit chance with crit damage. The primary damage is with the blast (the elementals that you modded is also in the blast) and if you use the sentinel with vacuum, you wont run out of ammo since sentinel has a better ammo mutation (one ammo box will give you all the arrows you can have with lenz). This bow is a great crowd clearer with the cold proc and the high damage blast.

As for self damage, try using a frame with status resistance (namely cold resistance) like Inaros with Scarab Swarm augment. That way, when you do accidentally fired one too close, you wont be cold proc'd and can still bullet jump away from the blast. Take note that even with 100% Scarab Armor and 4.8k health, Inaros will still die if caught in the blast. Learned that the hard way.
