First, you'll want Metal Auger. This will make your shots stronger, even to enemies in a line especially. The reason is because not only does the arrow make enemies hurt each other through the domino effect, but it also has the arrow do more damage, because it hits multiple targets. It will also go straight through any kind of armor, including the shields of a Shield Lancer. Next, you might want Thunderbolt. However, keep in mind that if the arrow explodes, it will not keep going, but it will cause a considerable amount of Blast damage, and has a chance to stagger, with the proc. (Programmed Randomly Occurence) It's all about preference. You also will want Serration as high as possible. This will increase overall damage, including elemental damage if you have element mods on it. Good elements for this are Cold, Toxin, Electricity, and Viral (Toxin + Cold). Cold slows enemies, Toxin damages their health directly, Electricity stuns (A lot better than Cold, but you might not have an Electricity mod. Same goes for Heat as a Toxin starter.) Viral I believe is a stronger Toxin. Next, you will want any kind of Status chance increasing mod. Doesn't matter if you have elementals, as the procs for Slash and Puncture are good too. (Slash is like quadruple Toxin. Puncture weakens your enemies attacks.) All Impact does is a tiny stagger, yeah. It's not very good. You also will want Fire Rate and Reload speed mods( Fire Rate decreases charge time, reload decreases the time to get a new arrow.) If you aren't a sharpshooter with a bow, you might want Ammo Drum. This will increase your ammo. Magazine mods are useless. Can't get enough shots? Sniper Ammo Mutation and/or Arrow Mutation will save you. This build definitely requires an Orokin Catalyst, and if you want everything maxed, maybe a Forma or two.
