'''Explosive Shot''' is a [[Hunter abilities|Hunter ability]] from the [[Hunter talents#Survival|Survival]] tree. It is a great shot to use in place of [[Arcane Shot]] as the two abilities share a cooldown. This is an excellent ability to use with a tenacity pet when grinding lower level instances.
