Crowd Wisdom: Incarnons, Week 6

As always, I'd love to hear what people think about the incarnons this week!

I think the theme of this week is "Yup, these weapons sure do kill things".

The offerings:

• Ack & Brunt
• Soma
• Vasto
• Nami Solo
• Burston

Some thoughts:

• Ack & Brunt is the one here with a neat passive. Elemental damage you take is banked into the weapon as a modded element, as well as supplying an elemental damage mod to the next attack. Can be really good on factions that have good elements. Can functionally apply DR and status immunity to the team with its augment, but the 12m link radius is pretty restrictive. It also stands out as one of the strongest SnS weapons in a weapon type that is already honestly ridiculously good. Try Afflictions with the Final Harbinger stance for the funny slash spam.
• Soma is interesting as a counter to certain types of damage attenuation since, like its direct comparison the Boltor, it just spits out a wall of bullets. The Entrati augment, Hata-Satya, pushes this just a hair past 100% CC if using Avenger, which is fantastic, because this bad boy has an impressive 4x CD if you take Zeroed In as an evolution.
• Vasto is, in my opinion, the undefeated champion this week. Outburst and Accuracy give this burst damage totally unconditional on kills, which makes it great as an Acolyte killer, Demolisher destroyer, and Archon annihilator. Try it with Deathtrap Trigger specifically.
• Nami Solo, I don't have many thoughts on. If you like Machetes, it's a strong one. You can build it for high followthrough which makes it great as a hybrid Influence nuker.
• Brrrrrston is one of a very rare type of weapon that is both a hitscan and an AoE, so it can do all sorts of broken things with enemies susceptible to ragdolls. Otherwise, it's a weapon! It has high crit stats and high status, and one-mod Blast if you're into that.

Vasto is my personal pick this week. If you have no other preferences, Ack & Brunt can be evolved for combo storage so you can pick up your combo somewhere and dump it on an enemy elsewhere if you're running an Outburst build. Great for Disruptions. Obviously less useful if you have other combo storage weapons like the Furax, Grigori, Livia, Xoris etc. Beyond that, this week is just picking outstandingly powerful weapons of a flavour you enjoy.
