After collecting a few different types of vectors, I can honestly say how terrible they are. I have 85 kills with vectors and through those kills, I found that their damage is atrocious and needs adjustment.
First, I suggest decreasing the damage falloff from where it is currently. I tested the range and as of right now, point blank headshots do 49 while medium range decreases to 26-28. At first I thought this was valid due to its high firerate and it is an smg, but then I used the tec-9 at the same range. I found that the tec-9 does 28 on point blank and 28 at medium range! I think its unfair that the tec-9, a secondary, still does 28 damage while the vectors damage drops off from 49 to 27-28. I think that a change to the damage fall off will fix one of the major problems but I still think there is one more to address.
Along with the damage fall off, I believe the vector's firerate deteriation to be an annoyance. I first supported the idea of the changing firerate, thinking there would be a benefit to it shooting slower. Upon further testing, I found there to be no benefit except for it being easier to control. I suggest that the firerate deteriation should be removed, leaving the vector as a normal submachine gun. However, if the firerate deteriation needs to remain, I suggest increasing the damage and accuracy the lower the clip is, perhaps capping at 55 damage and 25% additional accuracy. Or perhaps change the vector to shoot slower with the first few shots and speed up as the mag is depleted.
I love using the vector due to its model/sound and I would love to see it be a decent weapon to actually use. I hope there are others that support this idea and want to see this weapon become viable.
