Soma Prime Build

[Reaper]

What are your guys thoughts on Soma Prime build?

Crit build, Elemental build or a combo of both? Let me know your thoughts and feel free to post you build in the comments.

Always both. A "crit build" more often than not means the traditional mandatory damage mods (serration, split chamber, and in this case heavy caliber), the basic crit mods (point strike, vital sense) at at least two of the 90% elemental mods. It's important to remember that elemental mods are not just for status; adding two 90% elementals is the same as adding on an extra 180% damage to your weapon, just in the form of a different type of damage than what the weapon deals on its own.
For the eighth slot, it's more a matter of personal preference in deciding whether you want to use one of the rarer crit mods (argon scope, bladed rounds) or just an extra elemental mod.

Mind giving me the stats on that riven? Sounds like we've got some comparing to do...

I dont really use my soma prime I find it underwhelming... but when i do dust it off I run an argon scope build...

[Takku]

Serration, Split Chamber, Point Strike and Vital Sense are the obvious choices. Beyond that, my 2x Forma Soma Prime uses:
- Argon Scope
- Bladed Rounds
- Any combination of a 90% and a 60% elemental mod
(e.g. Stormbringer+Malignant Force for Corrosive)

- If you don't have Argon Scope you can put another 60% elemental mod.
- If you don't have Bladed Rounds you can use another 90% elemental mod too.
- Wildfire also deserves an honorable mention if you're looking for another mod that drains 9.
- Screw Hammer Shot, seriously.
- Critical Delay probably isn't much better than Hammer Shot.

Which ain't very common, even in xp farming runs.

It's like asking for a video if someone is virgin or not he can surely bring that soma to sorties but sorties arent 100+ unleast it's sortie 3+ also sortie isn't a thing to compare with actual 100+ lvls
You can still kill a 30-40 lvl enemies with unranked weapons think it as it, he isn't lyin

Yeah? Here I though a level whatever in sorties - without conditions that buff them - are the same as enemies in endless missions that are the same level range.

And in that case he'd be much better off with viral damage for that +75% damage bonus and insanely useful status proc. No matter how you look at it, OctaviaMC's build is pretty crap for such an endgame setup. Sure, it'll still handle stories just fine but that's not saying much because half the weapons in the game when maxed out can do the same.
