OP here :

@ALT well, "new" doesn't always mean they just recently playing. Even at some point, mastery rank 6 could still not unlocked the required mod to use Grakata as crit build or status build (maxed stats, not just 50% or 40% :D ). As example, my case. Rank it up 5 times (for Forma), getting the highest mod to build crit and stat proc, and "farming" plat to buy Potato (Or if it's on alert, consider it "free") it takes times and plenty of trial and error with mod management. Not to mention, ranking the mod such as serration or any rank 10 mod isn't cheap either. Besides, I do wrote "or other weapon" :)  that if in case someone can't get Soma, take other weapon. Karak is one example. For starter who just recently played WF, I suggest to take Karak. Quite better at dealing damage for low level, quite cheap to produce (exclude the material farming btw, we're all still farming at high level too :D ) and if somehow we have only limited damaging mod to put into and low level weapon (level 10 or lower), Karak will have better stats with it than if we put it on Grakata.

Although I agree that Crit-Grakata can be achieved easier than status proc build. But with crit build alone, the Grakata still can't hold very well if we're going into higher-end game content, in Void as example. So, yeah basically back again to why I said Grakata is pretty much long way to go and it can't be achieved easily for newbie. Grakata is good, as long as we have proper mod for it. If we can't get it, Soma could still be the best for average-playing time player. If Soma is still far, I'm sure Karak can get newbie better stuff and equipment to farm for higher weapon tier. I still love my Karak btw ;)
