Veteran Comments

Please read the Veteran Comments policy before editing this section.


Even after acquiring this weapon, I continued to use the VX-02a simply because you can kill stuff faster with it. The kinetic effect of this weapon allows the AIs to turn around and start shooting at you. Hardly a weapon I would want to use.
