profoak0117 Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Like the title says, my soma is only doing a maximum crit damage of 48 with a maxed out vital sense and point strike. Sometimes its even less, did the soma get nerfed? Why is this happening, I have to rely on my penta now. HALP ME PLZZZZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ik I dont even use the soma anymore, however I would like to if there is another event or something that would require an op gun to quickly and easily kill.

Shackram Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 But I still don't know why its only doing 48 now instead of 200 before What mods you have on it? What's the non-crit damage? If you only have Point Strike and Vital sense, 48 sounds about right for body shots. 200 only if you hit grineer heads. Are you shooting corpus shields?

Maxed vital sense and point strike, critical delay unranked, bane of grineer unranker, and ammo drum common 5. Was shootin grineer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(NSW)Omgwtfl9lbbl Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 ... That damage is totally normal. You're only doing 10.5 base damage. With a maxed Vital Sense that's 66 raw damage, which is then subject to armor. If you get headshot criticals, you will probably see around 192 damage on light Grineer if your body shots are doing 48 damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darzk Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 You really should replace Bane, Crit Delay, and Ammo drum with as high a serration as will fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaintedDream Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Yea, your build is pretty jacked up, and that's the one and only reason for your low damage. I get 2k - 3k crits on my Soma just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)xPaizenx Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 alright thanks, although its not potatoed and i dont have split chamber :P But I still don't know why its only doing 48 now instead of 200 before Put a Catalyst on asap. Then see if someone from your clan can trade you a Split Chamber for cheap. Then add serration and heavy cal to your vital, pointstrike and you'll be set with 3 extra slots for elemental combo and something else of your choice.

Darzk Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Actually, I wouldn't use HCal at all, but even if I was going to, I wouldn't try to make it fit until after a few forma. Getting elements installed is more important. Serration and Split Chamber in the V polarities, Vital Sense and Point Strike as well leaves you with 27 points, perfect for 11 and 9 point elemental, plus 7 point event mod / ammo mut / fast hands.

(NSW)Omgwtfl9lbbl Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Heavy Caliber is like a 7th or 8th choice mod to put in your gun, for nearly any gun that you choose to use Heavy Caliber in, assuming we're talking pure damage and order of mod influence on overall output.
