OP is right. the frozen and electric and all effect you see when you get dmg by the explosion is purely visual. you can easily tell b/c even if you are "frozen" you dont get slowed at all.

in thunderbolt page they seem to talk about the explosion dmg being changed to w/e elemental dmg you put on to make it more effective but not sure if it works like that.

and you're original shot dmg is negated and turn into 250 shot dmg.

in all, thunderbolt is only useful up to xini wave 5 or some low level maps.

better to pick off one mob at a time in higher maps to decrease the potential dmg you receive from the mobs.
