Geneticfate Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Just go with soma. Dera has a nice color change to it's ammo, but the soma is better overall. Just build it with crits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yg-Dosst Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 The Dera is terrible against the Grineer and is only truly effective if playing as volt, shooting through the shield.The Soma is a pain to use at first, but put on a potato and build it for crit. You will drop something with 2000 health in half of a second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AbsolutionZero Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 I love the Dera. If well-modded, you can use it against anything and shoot down stuff quickly. I do suggest the Soma though. The crits are amazing. Better get it before they put the mastery rank min req on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LazyKnight Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 (edited) dera or soma which one better against corpos? grinner etc. Dera does laser damage and the only time that is useful is on crewmen's heads. Bullet damage scales better than laser for head shots on nearly every NPC in game. Soma: -Soma only has completion from Synapse on corpus. -Soma can not beat a flux rifle on light infested, but is better on ancients. Dera: -Is good on crewmen. -is weaker than a braton prime on everything else. Edited September 30, 2013 by LazyKnight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darzk Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Actually Soma does more damage to light infested than even the flux rifle, the base dps is closer to 4x with crit mods and shred (*maybe chargers take more from flux due to armor) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LazyKnight Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 (edited) Actually Soma does more damage to light infested than even the flux rifle, the base dps is closer to 4x with crit mods and shred (*maybe chargers take more from flux due to armor) The 3x serrated blade damage from the base of flux always hurts the light units where as a Soma only damage that ends up working is AP at 50%. It does out scale simply because the light chargers break at around level 120-140 and only take damage from AP and armor ignoring types. Yes, true. I calculated it for luls too. these are DPS values vs. light infested which has hyphothetical infinite armor...: Soma: 1541 dps Flux: 3053 dps The amount of armor chargers get is absurd and that is the only reason that flux is worth using over soma past level 100.

Darzk Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Makes sense, I was thinking runners/leapers/crawlers which are unarmored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
