Where my Vector peeps at !?

[metric_methodz]

@shootinxs76 it's a grind for sure! And the DZ is so much fun, it keeps pulling me back in. The vector packs one hell of a punch the base dmg alone is pretty nice coupled with high ROF and crit chance...it's a good choice PvE or PvP

 

[ESGN]

@ESGN Dang! thats pretty nice. Do you find Brutal activating enough to make it worth the talent slot over something like ferocious? 

hard to say. id have to try one with ferocious to really be able to see if there is any difference. im usually aiming chest high so natural recoil brings it up for easy headshots. its been working great. i got that on my third roll. ive rolled about 4 more since then, but none of them are near as good as that one. oh and that was 25.5 crit chance as a base. not dmg.

@metric_methodz was that a savage garden reference? vector is beast.  mine is something like 45% accuracy and headshots do 24 percent more damage.  things a beast.  only wish the 3rd perk wasn't a electronics feature.

I was gonna burn him on this...until I realized someone would then associate me in knowing that song.

 

[metric_methodz]

@C2L3W1  :laughing:  its an unfortunate reality that so many people do know that song 

 

[C2L3W1]

Not gonna lie...it's somewhere on my phone....don't judge me, girls still dig that song!

 

[C2L3W1]

I got a fairly good roll on my Vector. Its talents are Deadly - 26% Crit Dmg, Destructive - 18% Armor Destruction and Brutal - 24% Headshot Dmg. The base dmg per bullet is 9739 Dmg and 25.5% crit dmg.  I use a HE ext mag with 95.5% mag size and 36% Crit dmg. PEQ laser with acc boost its the best grip i currently have for it.  Flash Hider with 18% acc and 28% crit dmg. Small rds scope with 6% crit chance and 18% headshot dmg. Im currently at 140 dps.

Yeah....GOD ROLL on your Vector...I'm slightly envious.

 

[ESGN]

Thanks, im hoping for a roll like that when i get the mp5 blueprint.

 

[metric_methodz]

@ESGN 140 DPS  :what!:  thats a pretty nasty vector. I'm alomsy 10 rolls in and still nothing outstanding or better than what I originally posted. 

 

[x Risky Kill]

If you stipped the MP5 and Vector of all mods which is a better weapon? 

 

[metric_methodz]

@x Risky Kill I am having a hell of a time trying to find any range of stats for the MP5. I would assume that since it requires DZ50 and PCs to obtain its probably gonna be better than the vector. RNG allowing of course. 

 

[ESGN]

ive read the mp5 has lower base dmg then the vector, but higher rpm and mag size. sounds like something that will come down to preference and how good of a roll you get.

 

[metric_methodz]

After approximately 15 rolls I finally have a dps platform (not quite the talents I want but worth keeping to see how it preforms). I rolled Brutal//ferocious//unforgiving. Not terrible but I think I would rather Deadly over unforgiving since more times than not I have medic with me and they're constantly throwing out heals so it'll rarely get activated.  

 

[Zenifystone]

I'm on my 11th roll and still no desired talents .  I'm not sure either to love or hate this rng yet lol. I do enjoy the scavenging runs with my group in dz, always some interesting encounter will pop up.

 

[g1nt3r]

@Onyhx, aren't you obsessed with the vector?

 

[metric_methodz]

@Zenifystone yea its a grind for sure but very enjoyable, truly does bring me back to D3 builds. Ill be rounding up to 20 rolls for the perfect vector very soon and I can assure you I wont stop till i get that perfect roll. Then ill move onto mods  :laughing: . By time i get it exactly where i want it for my build a new weapon will out class it but thats alright, i enjoy min/maxing.   

 

[Onyhx]

@Onyhx, aren't you obsessed with the vector?

Yeah, mine has Fierce (8% increased crit), Self Preserved (heal 3% of crit damage given), and Brutal (24% headshot damage). 

GG

I crafted an AK yesterday after you saying it was good though and man, that thing is a beast as well.

Yeah, that thing is a beast, been using it for a while now, haven't found anything better yet.

Current Roll. 9588 DMG 24% Crit chance Talent 1: 13% more damage when closer then 10 meters (aka closer then 30 feet so a long distance) Talent 2: 13% health regenerated within 5 seconds of a kill Talent 3: Accuracy is 46% (Sad face on this talent). But things to keep in mind. DPS does not mean your weapon will do the most damage and kill things faster. Its a pretty good indicator. But if you want to see how good something is. There is only one way. That is to fight elite NPCs and see how fast you are dropping them. That and pay attention to the Numbers when you are doing damage as well. I have seen my 126k DPS vector eat guys WAY faster then my 144k DPS vector. I have yet to see my Blackmarket AK kill as fast, but it is like literally neck and neck. So I run with both. If you are asking how are guys rolling Vectors with DMG higher then 10k and DPS of 150k+ Its because their Firearms is really high.

Okay after a few days I realize how sad it is that I thought of that song haha.

Good afternoon Agents! 

Like many of you I have fallen hard for that beautiful SMG the Vector 45 ACP (high end), one may even say im "Truly Madly Deeply" in love with it (for those of you who get that joke...you're showing a little age :wink: ). So the question at hand is...what is the god tier roll we all should be looking for on the Vector. Since this weapon is left in the hands of RNG I was hoping to hear from some of you and see what talents you're currently running on the weapon, how its preforming in the field for you and what mods have you attached.

The current Vector I am using is as follows (all numbers are weapon only *no gear buffs included*:

Base DMG: 8890 // RPM: 905 // Mag: 35

Talents - Deadly: Crit hit damage increased by 26% // Meticulous: Killing a target has a 23% chance to insta fill the mag // Accurate: accuracy is increased by 46%

Due to there being no Division app I absolutely forget the mods and their stats but i can post those later today.

At the moment my total primary DPS is at 115,925 but can be increased if i change around some gear and gear mods. 

So lets hear it Agents, I would love to see what you all are running and how well it melts face.

it's a nice smg, no arguing that, but it shouldn't be your primary. Smgs fall off in damage VERY quickly over range, and most fights won't be within your vector's optimal distance (go play around in the b.o.o.'s shooting range and you'll see what I mean). An AR is a much better weapon for initial engagements, and can push out equal damage over longer ranges.

That being said, my vector has a base of 13.1k (firearms boosts base on all weapons), rof of 750, mag of 38, 60% crit chance, 100% crit damage, 95% headshot. Deadly, Accurate, Destructive.

DPS sitting at 227k and change by the games count, but that's bunk and most of us know it. Per mag, it drops between 800k and 1.7 mil in damage (to npc's), depending on crit strings and shot placement at optimal range or lower.
