The damage you get from fully upgrading this skill is good enough considering the damage is almost the same as the damage being dealt by bombs like, Enhanced Devil's Puffball and Enhanced Dragon's Dream.
The value of this skill will greatly increase especially of you use a lot of special bombs during combat. Also, you can combine this with the Heavy Artillery skill to further increase the damage of your non-damage dealing bombs.
If you prefer all your bombs to deal damage when you throw them, then you should invest in this skill. Having some damage to bombs that do not normally deal damage can sometimes be useful when you rely on bombs like Samum and Dimetrium Dust.
