Both of you are wrong. Heh. Always wanted to say that.

Look below, there's a previous discussion. Soma deals IPS damage, therefore it CAN be weaker than the synapse that deals pure elemental. But that doesn't mean that it is. And "a mile" is a bit too much, don't you think?

What I'm trying to say is that the soma is good for lower level (amidst the higher levels) mobs where IPS won't affect damage much, but synapse, which deals pure elemental damage works equally well throughout. You can think of it this way: The lower the level of the enemy, the more effective the soma is versus the synapse. The higher the level, the more equal the two of them are. Of course, at some point, both will fail. That's where the Ogris and the post-buff bows come into play.
