^ keep in mind that the boltor, albeit with only 5% chance, also crits and that the soma also has a few shots without critting. This slightly offsets the raw dps again.

The boltor gains an additional 1.05 multiplier and the soma a (0.75*6.6+0.25) which results in boltor: 55*(1+1.65+1.65)*(1+0.9+0.9+0.9+0.9)*1.9*10*1.3*(0.05*2+0.95) = 28214.7 soma: 12*(1+1.65+1.65)*(1+0.9+0.9)*1.9*15*1.3*(0.75*6.6+0.25) = 27835.5 (note that i also changed the multishot to 90%, but that doesnt matter)

However, the Boltor can make use of bane mods (if going for an optimized build and showing of big numbers :D ) which yields 29502.7 raw dps (+6%) if swapping one elemental for the corresponding bane mod. The soma cannot do that. Or if you do not like bane mods (cause there is none for corrupted for example) slapping in Speed Trigger instead of the forth elemental sets the boltor to 33168.8 dps (+19%) while the soma again does not profit from that mod.

So numberwise the Boltor wins in burst dps, but! in terms of playstyle and utility i agree that the Soma is by far superior :D
