It's slower for a reason, it's stronger. There is a faster version that doesn't track or have additional bombs you just can't unlock it. I like it though, I create 7 orbs on a regular basis with it on modular mind. I can't think of any other boss where I've been able to that without it getting the killing blow. You had to chose between making orbs for team or doing dmg to boss, now you can do both. That is of course assuming more bosses than this one will have add spawns.
