So I was wondering if anyone can tell me if the extra accuracy against Solak is critical enough to make investing in an SOS worthwhile.

I have yet to find on the very few guides or overviews, due to how new the boss is, anybody using a Nox staff....Mage seems to be the order of the day as well regarding Solak over other styles.

However, I heard somebody claim that Accuracy was less important over understanding how to deal with the mechanics of the boss.


In short:
Has anybody tried Solak with T90 weapons? And was it splash city or completely tolerable?

Shamk said :
extra accuracy

accuracy against solak should never be an issue

assuming you have a T90 you're at 3670 accuracy
Solak's defence is 2080, and his affinity is 55

which puts your accuracy at 97% (T92 is 100%)

but those numbers are unoverloaded, and I assume that you will be using overloads for the entire fight, which means the only difference between a T90 and a T92 is effectively the ~28 damage increase

in other words, use a nox staff if you can't afford or don't want to buy a SoS @Chee__RS

Alright, that would pretty much confirm what I've heard then. All that leaves is learning the mechanics and figuring out how to properly DPS lol.


Thank-you Chee.

If you're camping only one particular weapon then Seismics/Praesuls are better than Nox Staff/SoS because of Conc Blast.

You're not going to need the Sonic Wave accuracy in any form here.
