 * Heavy Caliber

Are you serious mate? As if the recoil doesn't throw you off enough, you have to reduce your accuracy with a maxed heavy caliber! At least you could make it suck a little less by using a rank 5 heavy caliber; 100% bonus damage while not mangling your accuract.


 * Fanged Fusilade + Piercing caliber

And instead of an elemental combo, you have this. Now I understand that boosting its physical damage will give the critical multiplier a bit more to, uh, multiply, but soma's already low "raw" damage won't really sit well with something like that - even if boosted by Heavy cal. and Serration. Honestly. Ditch it for an elemental combo like viral or corrosive. Procs will make those heavies go down even faster and Soma's sheer volume of lead it can fling to any one target will more than make up for its low status chance.


 * Hammer shot.

You're telling me you wasted a mod slot for something that gives you a mediocre (at best) boost on your overall DPS? It's critical damage not critical chance(which would have been useful). This isn't a Dread that regularly flings red crits and a 60% bonus is mediocre at best. Swap it for a dual stat elemental mod (like Malignant Force) and you'll get more status from that alone


 * No ammo mutation

So you're just asking to run out of ammo, aren't you? Unless you're bringing along ammo restores, in which case, there are some better ways to spend your resources (that is, energy restores)
