I'm not sure if any one else experiences this or I have missed something in how axion bolts work. But quite frequently (in PVP) when an axion bolt grenade is thrown and explodes on top of or near an enemy, no bolts actually come out and very little damage is dealt.
In my last game this happened and the grenade caused a whopping 6 damage.
Now I know its not something that just happens to me because of my poor connection as I see it happen to other warlocks. Enemy is nearly dead, grenade thrown next to them , practically no damage dealt.
TBH I don't see how it could be connection based as at least the damage would happen at somepoint, currently I see the grenade hit and no bolts seem to spawn and minimal damage is dealt.
Does any body else come across this, Or have I just missed something about how they work?

Yes! The exact same thing keeps happening to me! It seems like sometimes when you hit them almost dead on theres just like a puff of smoke and it does a small amount of damage. Thats probably just the bolt hitting them before we can even see it but still doesnt explain the cruddy damage. And like you say, sometimes i leave someone with the tiniest sliver of health and watch my axion bolt hit them for a grand total of 2 damage that they survive... and this is my GRENADE??? Absolutely outrageous
