'''Bola Shot''' (not Bolo Shot) is a [[Demon Hunter]] Tier 1 [[Demon Hunter skills|skill]] unlocked at [[clvl|level]] 25. It fires a pair of bombs on a rope that wrap around the target, sticking and dealing explosive damage to the main target and any targets close to it after a couple of seconds of delay. This skill is not limited to monsters, as the bola can also attach to doors, barrels, and other targettable destructibles.

|description= Shoots out an explosive Bola that wraps itself around its target.
|type= Direct [[Damage]]/[[AoE]]
It's difficult to miss with them, since if they’re aimed anywhere near a target, and any part of the bola touches, the whole thing will stick. Bola Shot also works against larger targets, such as sarcophagi and other destructibles that are too large for the ropes to actually wrap around.

<blockquote>''In practice it’s like Explosive Arrow with a time delay fuse; you hit monsters and deal tiny damage with the impact, but then about 1.5 seconds later the bomb goes off and deals substantial fire damage. This skill was fun and effective, but not great to stack on a single target, since you could shoot them 5 or 6 times before the bomb started going off, and usually 2 or 3 would kill anything short of a boss. Thus wasting almost all the damage of your last 3 or 4 shots. I found it most effective to hit monsters with one or two Bolas, and then move on to shoot something else, trusting them to die when the time delay ran out.</blockquote>
Skill tiers were removed for the July 2011 Press Event, and Bola Shot became a level 5 skill.
