Bow sorc 1 shots mobs even in Chaos Sanc while having 100% hit but a bowzon depends on hit chance by AR and the fact that bosses like Diablo and Baal have native of 50% block.
The mechanic on explosive arrow is similar to Lightning fury where only the physical rolls for AR for a chance to hit and has a cap of 95% maximum hit. Whereas the elemental component of explosive arrow ALWAYS hits. This makes bosses super easy to kill.
The explosive (and freezing) arrow mechanic comes from, wait for it, a bowazon
I have both cold/phys bowa hybrid and a bowasorc.
Bowasorc can only tele faster and kill bosses faster because of static. She's squishy and has problems with sundered fire immunes because of low -fr (no -30/30 wep and phoenix like a normal fire sorc). It's a build optimized for cows, i.e. non fire immune, big packs of monsters.
