It may not be up to a developers tastes where ofcourse things can be bettered but nevertheless it's something players have been impressed with and haven't critiqued.
It is essentially a projectile super bomb. I'd say go with the super bomb(red) and just ignore the nuke shot all together, if there were a projectile version of all the bomb npcws then the bombs are useless.

Or make it something that isn't an npcw-- like a super weapon only useable during server-wide events or a quest.

It just doesn't seem Graal/Classic-like to me at all. The original was way better but I understand you wanting a larger explosion to differ it from the Fireblast.

Maybe something like this would look better, no light effects just the same shapes taken from the original explosion sprites (more damage dealt, obviously):

I was hoping to have more advanced versions of the Bow such as these as separate weapons or possibly as a toggle-able upgrade to the normal Bow.

I like Luda's concept.

I think the current version looks ugly because the light effect doesn't really fit (and makes the explosion look a bit pink to me). I like the original explosion better because it was sharp and defined, something about it being transparent bothers me.

What if the light effect was removed from the current explosion?

Can you post a version without transparency? I think it would look better but can't say 100%

No that's still awful, It looks cropped, distorted and the rotation is lame. I say ditch it and go with my idea.

What Luda suggested looks exactly like the Zalactic Bombs.

I do agree with you but I think something called the nukeshot should be more than a simple projectile with generic explosion.
