So I've only been playing since December. I don't know everything. But I was playing with 2 seasoned vets, and I figured something out they didn't know. So I'm only posting this for people who didn't know, because it can matter so much. I know I'm not the person to figure this out. I'm assuming most people know, but some don't.
Vex precision kills. For casual players like me, that's the robot race people. I always would shoot their heads off, and found getting a precision kill afterwards was near impossible, because there's no more head to shoot. So I always tried to shoot their empty neck hole, but it never worked well. Until this past week playing poe 42 needing headshots, I finally saw that shooting them not in the head, but the glowing part of the abdomen actually is how to get a precision shot in them. Not the head.
Yes I know a lot of people probably know this. Got ya. But I know a lot of people had no idea. Go try it out. I felt so dumb.
Edit: so it looks like many people here didn't look at my name, or don't know what it means. Check the spoiler. No I didn't know. It's not b8 or bait or bate, or a joke, or a knock knock, or satire. I'll be the first to admit I felt foolish when I found out knowing probably most people already knew. So I wrote this post ready for the mass amounts of comments to just be calling me stupid. Which if I actually took them serioisly, I would be stupid. And you all know this already. I'm not 12. Or 13. I'm 15. Jk. But if I helped one person today know this, then I have done my job. And I think there was one person who didn't, so I have completed my work here.
Edit 2: I'm very surprised to see some actual positive comments on here, even if it didn't help them. You were nice and karma will reward you. For all those saying negative things... keep going, I'm bored.
Feel free to use this post now however you'd like. Say the most random crap, attack me, attack someone else, convert people to Christianity. Whatever. And as always stay toasty.

3 RepliesWow. Lol. I can guarantee I smoke more weed than you ever will and I noticed that the first time I saw a Vex. Big glowing white thing sort of gave it away........ Don't ever blame weed for your stupidity it's got a bad enough rep as it is.

3 RepliesEdited by OurWildebeest: 4/26/2016 11:52:13 AMHey you guys, after months of only being able to kill with melee, I discovered you can shoot things! Here are the steps. 1 - must have a gun equipped. You don't even get a gun until a couple of minutes into the main storyline, so that was part of my problem right there. 2 - must have bullets, and must "reload" when empty. 3 - to actually shoot, you "pull" the "trigger" on your controller. This is not one of the colorful buttons we all know about. It is black plastic and blends into the controller. It took me a long time to find it. It is on the right front of your controller facing your TV where you can't even usually see it. You have to find it by touch. I hope this helps somebody! [spoiler]OP, sorry, no offense ...[/spoiler]

Think this took everyone a while to figure out. Naturally the obvious first point of call is to blow their heads off. I found the sweet spot purely through panic praying and spraying :P

8 RepliesEdited by Fridén: 4/26/2016 2:32:33 PMAre you an avid gamer? I don't want to be "that guy" but a glowing red EDIT: "white" spot. That is were I tried to shoot first. Games tend to follow a pattern of visual cues.

2 RepliesWow ... serious ... Thnx for the tip I guess... though I must admit Im flabbergasted people dont find out... Especially if you ever ran the VOG ...then you get this HUGE vex at the end...and its pretty hard not to notice thats where the sweet spot is... But I guess players who never played VOG might not have noticed...
