Would you please stop it with DPS? If you take it as DPS, then think about the rule of DPS in other games. What do healers say to DPS? Dead dps does no DPS.

Take it to Waframe, a weapon without ammo does no damage. And if you shoot a weapon that takes 10 ammo units per second - you talk about ammo-less weapon, or a weapon that you have to restrict from shooting\care with aim.

Now please get this(as it was written some posts below) - it does ~9 damage per shot. NOT 125, 9! Bloody 9. You keep saying "Crit". Soma has crit - 300%, but less crit chance(meaning that it actually doesn't go above 100%, but so close to 100% that it's negligible). It's better if there were 8 slots to their full capacity, then half-mod in one. Also, beside being one of the weakest-damage weapon IN GAME(after Grakata... and Spectra), it's Electric. While I hear that there are no resistances anymore, so theoretically infested are not the weak spot of this damage to counter double damage to corpus, and it doesn't take armor in consideration either, therefore being next top damage to Poison and Serrated - I don't yet know.

The thing is - Soma costs 1\10th of this weapon. Soma is acquireable at rank 3. It's logical that giving it more than 10 damage would gimp down any Fluxes and Supras, so it is only "mildly" better than them.

This weapon is the most expensive weapon in the whole game(being second only to gay Djinn), and to think that it follows same balancing rules... Hell, even with 20 damage I wouldn't say it's that strong(despite being direct upgrade from Flux) - not with nonexistant ammo-management.

They say they will buff new weapons, and while Dual Ichor may not need a buff, I hope they will think be very thorough with Embo and Syn.

Some faggot GrandMaster made "somehow" compiled spreadsheet on forums, claiming that even now this weapon outdpses Soma\Flux\Supra(even if by small margin), so it's theoretically a worthy deal. Well, to each his own, I guess.
