It's so inaccurate at even mid range. The nerf that affected all fusion rifles made the Vex terrible to use in PvE and PvP.
If you have the Vex Mythoclast, try going to patrol and aiming at a stationary target from mid range. It's crazy how inaccurate it is!
I know bungie said they know of the issue. But I hope that they fix is soon because I want to enjoy this beautiful weapon I just received!
Has anyone else tried using it after the nerf to fusion rifles' accuracy?
Edit: in the patch notes on Feb 25th, the devs said that the Vex was "affected by the overall changes to fusion rifles in the fix" and that they "intend to fix the problem in a later update". But they also kind of made it sound like what they are going to fix is the ammo problem. Mixed message if you ask me.

Short controlled bursts.

I went to use a fusion rifle this morning, first time since the nerf, it was def noticeably and it was terrible
-
Vex is a beast
-
If you think vex is bad in crucible then you either don't know how to use it or you just suck
-
It sucks as compared to WHAT? When a guy with a Vex can kill me with one shot, from the door of the Zone B room to the window in Firebase Delphi- that doesn't "suck" for him as much as for me. There must be some reason these things are everywhere in Iron Banner.
-
*still manages to get killed by it*
-
If you ask me I would say that it was a bit overpowered.
-
Dafuq is wrong with people?? Vex melts enemies in the crucible, its made for close to mid range. I'm shoked how much people dislike the gun. My pvp primary weapons: close to mid range=Vex mid to long range=Thorn
-
Bullcrap... I use the vex in pvp with the send it perk and pretty much kill everyone I meet and second, I use the vex for raids since it is such an awesome weapon.
-
People are just garbage at the game. Vex is still a monster. It is designed for CLOSE RANGE - MID RANGE battles, nothing more. On top of that, it has probably the highest aim assist in the game. It absolutely wrecks in PvP and PvE, still does the same damage, still functions the way it was supposed to. People need to just level up or stop complaining about a gun they clearly have no idea how to use or understand
-
It's always been just a trophy weapon for me. Probably why RNGsus insists on dropping it for me so -blam!-ing often.
-
Its definitely not as effective as it was before. Its essentially a different weapon and not a very good one. I remember always hearing at least 1 vex in every crucible match prior to the patch. Now I'm surprised and sad on the rare occasion I hear it.
-
Yah it had drastically taken a hit even with the stability upgrade and range upgrade. Depressing
-
I only use it for the 2 kills with a fusion rifle at once bounty so I really don't care
-
Only whip it out for the fusion bounty.
-
It sucks for pve. I have mine stored. Had it a month and only unlocked the first upgrade. Shitty gun. People use it PvP a lot. I have thorn for that tho. Waaaay better.
-
1) Vex was never a weapon that thrived on accuracy. It is best used as a brute force bullet hose. 2) vex does not have hitscan. The recent major crucible lag is probably definitely influencing perceptions of its accuracy. 3) if you spawn into Crucible with another primary equipped, you can bypass the ammo bug. 4) this gun still melts face in both PvE and PvP.
-
Gave up on this game after the update. I'm primarily an ar guy and I'm good at it but that update broke the camels back
-
It still wrecks in pvp. I hate that gun more than any other. I don't have one, but I don't think it needs a nerf or buff. If you still can't wreck people in the crucible than you need to learn how to use it
-
It actually is accurate at mid range. Use the perk in the first column that bumps up stability the most and its stability is like the Suros.
-
The only thing that was changed in the patch was its ammo consumption. Your problems with aim and stability are just that: your problems.
-
Yep, it's terrible to use in PVP
-
PvP is slowly sucking the life out of PvE. And PvP isn't getting any better in the process. STOP THE NERFS
-
I'd rather have a potato then it
-
It always sucked
-
They love to ruin this gun a lot. All fusion rifles are garbage now, I finally went to the dark side and started using shot guns since the update. I became what I hated lol...
