I was able to pull in 1k crit damage per shot with Soma Prime. Mind you that its headshot crit but thats the main thing bout Soma Prime. It rewards headshot crit build very well and mod it with corrossive, it is a very good weapon against grineers even with no CP. While base damage is low, the crit damage multiplier is high, going upto x8.4 with standard mods (minus Bladed Rounds) and when a headshot crit is acheieved, the damage is quite high. Combined with its very good acuracy, rate of fire and manageable recoil, Soma Prime can easily shred enemies. That is why it's popular. High damage (when modded properly), high rate of fire, high accuracy, high magazine capacity and manageable recoil.
