What these Arsenic Bite-4b perks do
Dragonfly
Precision Kills cause targets to explode, dealing up to 123.89 [95.3] weapon-matching elemental damage in a 4.5-meter radius.
Explosive Head
Splits off 50% of the Bow's bodyshot damage into an Explosive Payload that detonates in a 3 meter radius on impact.
The Payload deals 30% increased damage in PvE and staggers PvE Combatants more.
Payload detonation time after hitting a target or surface depends on the distance.
The remaining Impact damage portion receives an increased Crit Multiplier to compensate for the Payload not benefitting from crits.
[PvE] Total damage is increased by ~15% of the weapon's bodyshot damage. On crits, the overall increase is 10.33% for Precision Bows and 9.69% for Lightweight Bows.
[PvP] Total damage remains roughly the same but can vary by 1-2% in either direction for crits.
Archer's Tempo
Precision Hits decrease Draw Time by 25% for 3 seconds.
Buff is removed on stow.
Moving Target
Grants the following while Aiming Down Sights (ADS):
• 10 Aim Assist
• 10% decreased ADS Movement Speed Penalty
Rampage
Weapon Kills grant a Stack of Rampage. Maximum of 3 Stacks.
Stacks expire one at a time every 4.5 seconds.
Grants a 10%|21%|33.1% damage increase at 1|2|3 Stacks.
Does not buff the Splash/Explosive damage elements of other perks.
Snapshot Sights
Passively decreases the ADS Animation Duration:
• 50% decrease on Primary Weapons
• 20% decrease on Special Weapons
Hip-Fire Grip
Grants the following benefits while hipfiring:
• 25 Stability and 15 Aim Assist
• 2.7° larger Precision Aim Cone Angle
• 30% decreased Accuracy Cone Size
• 20% increased Aim Assist Falloff Distance
• 20% increased Damage Falloff Distance
The Damage Falloff increase does not apply to The Last Word, Shotguns, Sniper Rifles, and Fusion Rifles.
PvP-specific note: the Precision Aim Cone Angle increase essentially just allows you to hit Crits while aimed above or slightly to the side of the head. (This is already the default behavior of Submachine Guns, Sidearms, Bows, Machine Guns, and Linear Fusion Rifles so it does not affect them)
