What it does: Improves specified explosive effects according to the current skill description.
Who should consider it
- Gunlance shelling plans
- Compatible Charge Blade phial plans
- Other explicitly supported explosive mechanics
When it is less useful
It does not improve every visually explosive attack or ordinary weapon hit.
Useful pairings
- Capacity or reload support when compatible
- Guard and sharpness for the complete loop
- Raw or affinity only for the portions they affect
How to evaluate it
- Confirm the attack is named or supported by the skill.
- Separate shell/phial damage from ordinary hits.
- Test the complete rotation rather than one explosion.
