Unfortunately both aren't

Unfortunately both aren't "excellent" bombs at the moment
But it's pure damage VS status, slight damage reduction for shock status
That may kill you fighting Quicksilvers, and kill other thing faster(Slimes, PvP, large groups)

This is the problem with new

This is the problem with new weapons, uncertain stats like damage

The damage bonus is useless if you like trinkets/bombastic/mad bomber.
Shock is situational. Sometimes it may output more damage, sometimes it'll be an annoyance.

Neither is overall better unless you put them in a specific context.

All the shard bombs are bad, get a nitro instead.

ISB MAY be somewhat useful due to shock but not very much.

The shock prevents knockback,

The shock prevents knockback, which is one of the annoyances of this bomb line.

Do you want shock? Yay? Nay? That's what you should use to decide.
