the soma will give higher DPS cuz of the crits. even if it's doing slash damage, if you just aim for the heads of grineer, you'll get massive damage. dont forget, crits multiply the base damage, and elemental damage, and faction damage, and if you get the head, all of that will be multiplied based off the damage mulitplier. or something like that. supra is more of a spray and pray weapon, and soma is for more concentrated fire. advantage to soma is that it can take out targets far across the map before they even get to close thanks to the amazing accuracy. supra's bullets look cool though...lol idk. i didnt build the supra yet, even though i have the mastery for it. but im still farming for all the primes, no time for leveling mastery atm xD.

supra got a lot better though, according to what the stats say and what people are saying about it. soma is a crit rifle, and supra is a pure all out damage rifle. crit builds are definitely not recommended. rather just forma it a few times and slap on a max serration, max elemental combos, a heavy calibur, and maybe shred + faction damage mods. since it's mostly puncture damage, piercing hit will benefit it greatly as well. and i would keep the supra for grineer only cuz mainly puncture damage. soma, like what somebody above said, is more all-around thx to the crazy crits, although it really shines against infested and flesh mobs.

remember though...i didnt build the supra yet :3
