It does, but I don't find it nearly as necessary as Shred. I only use Vile Acceleration and Shred because it is plenty enough of a fire rate boost AND Punch Through is necessary. Regardless of what some may post, punch through is the most necessary because you do not get an explosion unless you hit a surface. If you hit an enemy, you do not get an explosion, so Shred allows you to shoot at feet (or low in general) and not only take out enemies, but guarantee an explosion every shot. There is also no self-damage like Ogris (at least last when I used it) so it's sort of like the good old days with Trinity Link with a Penta.
