The explosion of the Spore Pods counts as a hit, which allows for rapid application of "on hit" effects such as Poison, or Life and Mana Gain on Hit.
Increasing the number of projectiles appears to drop spores over a larger total area. Since the spore-to-spore distance seems to be the same,[1][2][3] the overlap (and therefore single-target damage) does not increase with greater number of projectiles.
Sources of Increased Area of Effect allow the Damage over Time from each spore to overlap.[4] User testing indicates that increased area does not appear to increase the spore-to-spore distance,[5][2] therefore this should improve single-target damage.
Spore explosions and arrows count as "kill with this weapon" but damage-over-time component does not.
