I'm kind of on the hedge with this one. I like the idea, but despise the execution. This mod is a straight up nerf for Artemis Bow. A flat 50% bonus crit chance and a wimpy explosion hinging on a headshot doesn't make up for the loss of a mod slot or the loss of multishot (7x total base damage with no strings attached, or a bonus 50% Crit chance pivotting on patience; no conrtest as far as the DPS calculations are concerned; multishot wins by a landslide even with the all the variables favoring concentrated Arrow).

This is just insulting. Concentrated Arrow should buff Artemis Bow's base damage to be equivelent with the non-Aug'd Arty Bow's base damage. This essentially takes the total Damage of stock Arty Bow, divides it by 7, takes that crippled figure, and then applies RNG to multiply that fractionated damge to still less than what it would've been WITHOUT the bloody aug.

To make matters even worse, it demands the sacrifice of a mod slot. Want my vetern min-maxing advice? Don't bother with this shitty Aug; Arty Bow's KPM benefits FAR more from Augur Secrets than it does from Concentrated Arrow. Hell, the loss of multishot even makes Hunter Munitions less effective by providing you with less instances of Slash Procs. That 50% Crit Bonus on headshots will never exceed 7x chance to proc per regular shot.

Alter the Aug so that Concentrated Arrow's Base Damage is on par with basic Arty Bow, or don't even bother considering this hunk of shit in your build.

And no, the explosion isn't worth a damn if it can't 1-shot level 155+ heavies. Stock Arty Bow has way more KPM than Concentrated Arrow come late game.
