I may have missed/left out some small details but working on weapon videos are quite different compared to Frame essays, will continue to structure them as I go forward. EDIT: I meant to say HIGH critical damage, not decent. Sorry for slight oversight in script.
Could you please go back and manually subtitle the Tactical Potato section of the video (covering Boltor Prime)? Ancient mic quality + thick accent = indecipherable noises.
@@dankmemes8254 Yeah sadly the Exergis, a non prime weapon can do what the Tigris does but better and with 1 shot instead of 2. :// Sadly nowadays, if it can't prime or nuke an 11 meter area to ashes, it's quickly forgotten.
Small fun fact: soma's mastery requiment was raised from 1 to 3 just week after its release. And I just happened to join the game during these days and grab the gun for myself at mastery rank 2. Sigh, there were the times...
When I started Warframe, I bought the blueprint for the soma as soon as I could obtain it after watching a video from MHBlacky. I still use it to this day
It's crazy how the UI/graphics looks back then to now. DE did a great job of making the game feel close to current AAA game graphics. That's why after coming back from a 4+ year hiatus, the game feels so different now but in a good way.
I feel as though the release of Hunter Munitions (even though it affected almost all weapons) was a massive change for the Soma. That pre-HM world where we relied on status for armor bypass or removal was ultra reliant on weapons status leaning. Soma really was a rare case of high fire rate crit boosted slash.
The thing that disappointed me most about Soma Incarnon was that it reduced the crit chance by such a large amount. Soma Prime normally has a 30% base crit chance, but when incarnon mode drops to 10%, even with Hata-Satya fully stacked and Critical Delay, it doesn't even reach 90% crit chance, which is a tragedy considering under those same conditions, normal Soma Prime hits 240% crit chance. Soma Incarnon wants totally different builds for incarnon mode versus normal.
A lot of these videos have helped to remember just how much animosity there was between DE and the player base regarding many things, nowadays we have it good but back then oh boy were some behaviors questionable at best
One of my oldest WF memories was asking for help fighting Lephantis back in the day(started right before Cetus came out). The Dude that helped me came in with a Volt Prime and shredded each Lephantis head with Soma Prime in seconds. Needless to say it became my dream weapon afterwards
I'm having a Warframe based crisis, "back in the day" for me has a different meaning. I still remember grinding Rhino Prime back when we had keys and I think I still have Gamma in my inventory.
I was one of those 2015 players and this gun carried my star chart progress. Years and many breaks from the game later, and I finally got around to getting the prime and the incarnon together. Still a daily driver for me, especially with harrow and citrine, just a really fun gun to use even if it's not meta
So I started playing Warframe when Plains of Eidolon had just released, and we had the Twitch Prime loot of a Frost Prime, Soma Prime and Scindo Prime. I used those 3 for so long that they are still in my top 5 most used respectively. The Soma carried my ass, and I structured my entire loadout around it, getting Carrier for the explicit purpose of making sure I never run out of ammo, as well as dropping a wopping 4 forma on it, which took me ages back then to grind out. I still sometimes use it, especially with its unique mod because if there is one thing I love more than a bullet hose its a bullet hose that gets better with each shot fired.
I still think it's a crime that the Soma's Incarnon form is basically just an automatic shotgun. The thing struggles to kill single armored units on Steel Path starchart while weapons like the Dual Toxocyst incarnon are capable of evapoating entire hallways of Grineer in under a second when built right. Funny infected status pistol gets crazy crit buffs and ricocheting shots while the Soma gets to be a worse version of the Boltor.
"Decent critical damage" Wasn't the Soma the one weapon with the highest critical damage in the game back then? I still remember the conversations. Maybe one of the bows beat it but mind's drawing a blank on other ideas.
I loved the supra vandal, 300 ammo bullethose, with ash it did respectable work:) today i very much enjoy the braton p incarnon, not the most powerful, but very comfy.
I miss these days. Specifically Tonkor rocket jumping days, I pretty much quit using Soma P when that came out, made me obsessed with getting places I normally couldn't.
You explained the old metas pretty well, made me remember all the crap we have done over the years pretty vividly. Well done Mr. Umbral, see you on the next T4D, I'll bring my terribly expensive Ember Prime.
One of my earliest Warframe memories was getting this gun, along with the Vasto Prime and Nova Prime. I grinded for days for them all, and when I got them, it was all I used for months. To this day, the Soma Prime is still my most used weapon, and for good reason
Eh... i honestly couldn't tell you. Too many weapons, too many events. No weapon reigned long except back when warframe was kinda bad and just didn't get updates like that.
All these looks into the past makes me think about 'coptering. Would probably still have my dual zoren if mastery fodder didnt include on in a crafting recipe
I am not watching this video, it just randomly poped up on my feed. I didnt play warframe in few years, but soma prime was one of my most favourite weapons, just awesome firepower, looks, feel everything. And red crits were awesome, I remember people trashtalking me for my crit build xD. Fantastic lovely weapon, space AK.
I love this weapon so much I used it in half of my total playtime which is over 500 hours. I ADORE everything about this weapon, the looks, the function, the sound effect, the recoil, the criticals, and I'm just kinda dissapointed that the incarnon turned the Soma into less of a Soma and more an auto shotgun.
even as recently as the introduction of the Zaramon update, Soma Prime would be my "control" for comparing DPS capabilities among other weapons. The Tenora Prime ended up being a "better" version because of it's gimmick, though i wish it's alt fire did more damage. i ended up falling in love with the Bubonico as my "go to" weapon. And i couldn't believe the number of times i had used other weapons like the Phantasma [Prime] and run out of ammo versus the times i was able to just "shoot" what i needed to with the Bubonico.
I remember Acrid being a contender to most OP weapon in the game. If you used it at peak, you could buff it's damage over time it did and you could stack these as fast as you could fire. But it this also bypassed shields and even bosses shields. Before it was nerfed to oblivion. Now it's real useless. Also Boltor Prime main here. I used it far more than Soma Prime. So much in fact that it's still my most used weapon after 4000 hours and I haven't touched it in a few years.
Soma was and is still my main, with the correct build it can still shred Steel Path. The Gotva Prime is pretty dang close now though, still the Soma remains the king of my arsenal
Started playing around the release of 2nd Dream and the moment Argon Scope released that baby went into my Soma Prime Been hard carried by that gun ever since, only thing that matches it for me in terms of playtime is Nataruk, and my Secondary Staticors
Started playing in 2014, i cant even describe the level of power i felt using this weapon. It became the top weapon on my account for a long time before getting the soma prime. Btw i just reached MR30 a week ago (i never cared too much about it, until i made it to 25 and thought it might be the time to do it after so long) and it might be silly but i love giving the affinity/cred blessing into Relays, i was felt that is such a nice thing to give…and it’s free so… my pleasure brothers
I have this Soma riven mod that at max it gives +131.80% critical chance and +186.60% critical multiplier making the base 86% critical chance and 7% critical multiplier on it alone.
Despite being sold years ago, the soma is still my most used primary lol. I guess partly because we have so many good weapons to play with now and I don't just stick to one weapon that my use time on them still hasn't matched the soma.
What's funny is once the grakata came out, that essentially replaced the soma, and the prisma replaced the soma prime easily. I did videos comparing the two and the grakata even beat the soma prime at one point. Grakata wasn't as popular though.
I have all the adapters (circuit is really fun) but the Soma has been on my "I'll get to it later list" since its second week (Duviri is really painful)... Maybe I'll give it a shot next time I find someone willing to farm Duviri with me.
The problem with the Soma incarnon is that the incarnon form has lower critical chance than the non-incarnon form. Everyone knew that the Soma was a crit based weapon. DE then went "LOL NO" and tanked the critical chance on the incarnon form. Why? For what reason? Did they want to "do something different"? To make the incarnon form be "something else"?
1:50 To be perfectly clear here... Nobody... And I mean NOBODY cared about status chance back when Soma was added. There was no support for status back then. People only used elements as extra raw damage that could deal with enemies that were weak to those elements better. The only outlier being the Acrid. Though I can't remember if they had fixed the Acrid's damage by the time Soma came out. (Acrid being the very first weapon to deal "toxic" damage in the game. So early on in-fact, that nothing had any resistance to its damage type. It was effectively a true damage weapon for a good while.)
If you want "soma incarnon", just use the burston. Its incarnon form is much closer to an upgrade of the soma than what the soma got. Burston incarnon is insane.
There is a way to make Soma Prime Incarnon 'good' and that's by using Harrow. Harrow grants a 200% final CC on headshots, taking advantage of the 4x critical multiplier, giving easily 8x if not critical 12x damage multiplier, add in headshot bonus damage and it SHREDS. I actually like the Soma Incarnon a bit more then the Boltor Incarnon.
I was the Soma Prime's strongest soldier back in the day, heck it still appears as my most used Primary on my account. While I knew power creep was inevitable, before the Incarnons I was still happy with it. Once the Incarnon did come out though, it was honestly pretty sad, considering the hype surrounding it, and it got outshined in its role by the freaking **Burston** of all weapons. It's still plenty usable, don't get me wrong, but its Incarnon was definitely a disappointment, and fixing Hata-Satya honestly wasn't enough since you lost the crit upon switching forms anyway.
It feels like D.E. tried to be funny and swapped burston incarnon and soma incarnon. Just like them giving us a tenet glaxion, which is just amprex but cold damage.
I just got the most amazing soma riven 134.4% Toxin, 171.6% Critical Damage, and -34.5% Zoom. Toxin can be multishot or crit chance, but holy red crit damage territory with sevagoth's augment or anyone that gives flat crit chance. The gun hits 1-2mil a shot shredding anything that is infront of it. With wisp buffs or anyone else and it just becomes even more of an unholy monster. I use it everywhere now depending on the frame and the mission and i love it. I dont use hata satya because i dont have it and im not sure what it would change but when i get my hands on it ill be testing it out. I think my most amount of damage was once with a 10mil bullet though im not sure how to recreate that im still testing it out more and trying things to see if i can push it further.
i actually revisited my soma prime incarnon... it is a good weapons ,destroyed by so many other incarnons, being IMO torid and angstrum prime miles better :( and am not even gonna talk about phenmor and laetum, the absolute mandatory have at finishing zariman
Soma was my first prime.... then I got the Tiberon Prime and went with that lol I sorta wanna get back into Warframe now.... havnt played since 2021 -.-"
The incarnon is of course above most weapons, but it just doesnt feel satisfying to use, I kinda wish they just went the burston incarnon route and leaned into the whole bullet hose theme, and it doesnt even have to be as strong tbh. Seeing that its some weird shotgun with meh crit chance without the weapon augment was...disappointing to say the least. The stat buffs were nice ofc but thats kinda expected. Still in my top 3 most used weapons tho (before incarnon!), design of the wep is so peak, and using it in earlier stages of the game was so damn nice. I think it was the first prime wep i bought.
It is really ironic I like the soma it was the first weapon I got recommended to from MHBlacky and he was right I actually felt like I am really strong like I am real player after getting it how sad
the legacy of such a powerful weapon tainted by an incarnon that makes you build the exact oppisite stats. will always be infinitely disappointed with its incarnon
I started playing for rhe first time around the end of update 10 (the first update I remember being present for was 11). Getting MR6 for the soma seemed like a massive obstacle at first, but it felt incredible when I got it. I remember soloing t3 keys with it to get my first primes.
"bad incarnon" while yea all incarnons are generally buffs and lets them outclass most other weapons we can only equip 1 primary secondary and melee at a time so there is a reason to suggest some are bad especially if means giving up a potentially good incarnon and waiting 8 weeks to get it later though really the only week that has a tough decision is week 5 with torid dual toxyst dual ichor and atomos all in 1.
I may have missed/left out some small details but working on weapon videos are quite different compared to Frame essays, will continue to structure them as I go forward.
EDIT: I meant to say HIGH critical damage, not decent. Sorry for slight oversight in script.
Could you please go back and manually subtitle the Tactical Potato section of the video (covering Boltor Prime)? Ancient mic quality + thick accent = indecipherable noises.
Ah yes, I remember the old joke: Tigris Prime, the best sniper in the game
dont forget the old hek
if u got a problem, tigris it
Look how they massacred my boy
@@dankmemes8254 Yeah sadly the Exergis, a non prime weapon can do what the Tigris does but better and with 1 shot instead of 2. ://

Hopefully you managed to upgrade it to a Incarnon Soma Prime with a good riven by now
every time i see a history vid form this guy i instantly age another 12 years realizing this is how long i've been playing warframe for
It's crazy how the UI/graphics looks back then to now. DE did a great job of making the game feel close to current AAA game graphics. That's why after coming back from a 4+ year hiatus, the game feels so different now but in a good way.

You are aware that Soma incarnon is a shotgun right?
@ForestX77 So? Going from regular red crits to be unable to orange crit is a significant damage drop.
Soma Prime still remains my #3 most used weapon, just because I used it so much back then. Great docu.
A lot of these videos have helped to remember just how much animosity there was between DE and the player base regarding many things, nowadays we have it good but back then oh boy were some behaviors questionable at best
Tiberon Prime and Soma Prime got me through so much shit back when I still played Warframe.

I've only been playing for a year and a half, so I appreciate these history videos. Thanks!
I remember having Soma Prime and Rubico Prime as my ranger class main weapons in Terraria Calamity Mod. One of many reason why i love this rifle a lot
"Decent critical damage"
Wasn't the Soma the one weapon with the highest critical damage in the game back then? I still remember the conversations. Maybe one of the bows beat it but mind's drawing a blank on other ideas.
I meant to say high Crit damage, oversight when I was recording, apologies
Back in the early days, yea the soma was goated.
Dread is the bow that beat soma for ability to achieve red crit and high crit damage multipliers. I got over 6x crit damage multiplier on my dread.
@@trd7639 there it was. Yeah, I remember building it for AoE
Ah, yes. The old days of soma, Tigris, and vectis being the GOATs. What a beautiful trio of guns, still to this day they just feel so good.
Great video, brings back a lot of memories ! The first ratchet song too :')
15:40 Vectis prime!! The GOAT. That sniper rifle carried me through the star chart.
Also 100% status chance tigris was nuts back then.
I loved the supra vandal, 300 ammo bullethose, with ash it did respectable work:) today i very much enjoy the braton p incarnon, not the most powerful, but very comfy.

Soma Prime being unvaulted was my favorite thing to happen in my first 6 months of playing. Suuuuuch a good rifle
If someone pointed a gun at your head and asked you, what weapons formed
"The Big 3" over warframes history, what would you say?
Soma, phenmore, kuva zarr
for primaries, Bramma, Tigris Prime, Soma Prime
phenmor, felarx and xata whisper
Acrid, Flux Rifle, Soma
Eh... i honestly couldn't tell you. Too many weapons, too many events. No weapon reigned long except back when warframe was kinda bad and just didn't get updates like that.
I still use it as my goto incarnon, with Primed Shred its a bullet firehose. other things might be meta, but brrrrrt brings me a smile.
My favorite thing is how the soma sounds when you fire it.
Thanks to you, I remember that Tonkor exists
I used soma so much back in the day that it is still one of my most used weapons
All these looks into the past makes me think about 'coptering.
Would probably still have my dual zoren if mastery fodder didnt include on in a crafting recipe
2015 soma prime was the comfiest rifle you could have had .
Still my most used rifle to this day due to how long it's been meta relevant .
Soma prime to this day is still amazing especially with incarnon
A video all aboot armor/enemy armor would be awesome
Ah, I still remember the constant suicides I have committed with Lenz😂
It hits even harder having Soma as my high-school crush's name 😢

I do remember those boltor and soma prime days!
i still mostly use my soma prime.
its just the best.
goddamit, my favourite Warframe weapon forever
When I got asked whether Soma or Boltor, I answered SYNAPSE!
I remember boltor having armor pen in damage 1.0 and it often felt easier to go through armor with then other guns vs grinner
The most used gun in my old account. I miss you, Soma Prime.
Forget to mention Hunter Munitions coming out and being a small resurgance
As soon as i got the Soma i made sure to mod it for maximum firerate, it was fun having basically a laserbeam of bullets
I remember Acrid being a contender to most OP weapon in the game. If you used it at peak, you could buff it's damage over time it did and you could stack these as fast as you could fire. But it this also bypassed shields and even bosses shields.
Before it was nerfed to oblivion. Now it's real useless.
Also Boltor Prime main here. I used it far more than Soma Prime. So much in fact that it's still my most used weapon after 4000 hours and I haven't touched it in a few years.

Been hard carried by that gun ever since, only thing that matches it for me in terms of playtime is Nataruk, and my Secondary Staticors

As someone who played during that time, using argon scope unironically made you do less damage because it was a wasted mod slot.
It was just "funny red number" meme

Ah yes Tigris prime the god sniper and room clearer, gotta thank tactical potatoe for intruding me to that , god beautyi miss that meta

i think it’d be completely fine if they buff the slash damage of tigris prime back up unless there’s a future incarnation coming for it
My atterax still has the maiming strike build that does like 2 damage now
i actually revisited my soma prime incarnon... it is a good weapons ,destroyed by so many other incarnons, being IMO torid and angstrum prime miles better :(
and am not even gonna talk about phenmor and laetum, the absolute mandatory have at finishing zariman
now i want a vid all about aoe weapons and their history
at least boltor incarnon doesnt lose 20 base crit

I sorta wanna get back into Warframe now.... havnt played since 2021 -.-"
And it's still good
Legendary Weapon.
what is that middle gun at 1:46 i see it on devstreams as a placeholder icon but i dont know where it came from
Its the OG Ogris model
@@NovaUmbral omg that goes waaaay back
The incarnon is of course above most weapons, but it just doesnt feel satisfying to use, I kinda wish they just went the burston incarnon route and leaned into the whole bullet hose theme, and it doesnt even have to be as strong tbh.

Still in my top 3 most used weapons tho (before incarnon!), design of the wep is so peak, and using it in earlier stages of the game was so damn nice. I think it was the first prime wep i bought.
Since without rivens or warframe buffs, Incarnon mode caps out at 80% crit chance...
I started playing in 2015 I don’t think I got soma prime until MR 14ish though, sometime in early 2016.
It might see a rise with the new status rework.
Zephyr still remains my most used frame % wise because of rocket boosting.
It is really ironic I like the soma it was the first weapon I got recommended to from MHBlacky and he was right I actually felt like I am really strong like I am real player after getting it how sad
Its really good with sevagoth
I really wish Soma's incarnon was what the Furis got😔
YEAH! I was right!
As someone wise said "if you killing single targets fast enough it can be called AoE"
I played 2014-16 on ps and soma was the goat, is it still a top weapon today?
The fire rate nerf in incarnon form was completely unnecessary. I exclusively use it on 600 strength Wisp to stop if from feeling sluggish
Soma prime is my raifu flight me
Oh god, do I miss self-damage.

I started playing for rhe first time around the end of update 10 (the first update I remember being present for was 11).
Getting MR6 for the soma seemed like a massive obstacle at first, but it felt incredible when I got it. I remember soloing t3 keys with it to get my first primes.
"bad incarnon" while yea all incarnons are generally buffs and lets them outclass most other weapons we can only equip 1 primary secondary and melee at a time so there is a reason to suggest some are bad especially if means giving up a potentially good incarnon and waiting 8 weeks to get it later though really the only week that has a tough decision is week 5 with torid dual toxyst dual ichor and atomos all in 1.
