XDefiant beta – the best Vector loadout

In general, the Vector may not be considered one of the best weapons to use in the XDefiant beta. Even so, it can quickly rack up a lot of damage in the right hands and with the right modifications.

The ideal Vector loadout focuses on enabling you to move, shoot, and reload quickly. Any modifications you make will work toward that end, so that you have crafted a dream weapon for those players who like to run and gun. It’s good for both close- and mid-range skirmishes.

For your muzzle, you’ll want to go with the Muzzle Booster to improve your general rate of fire. For the same reason, also equip the Rapid Fire barrel.

Your front rail should be the Pistol grip, which enhances sprint-shoot time while offering a minimum and maximum spread of +20%. Meanwhile, the Quick Mag magazine improves both ammo capacity and reload speed, which keeps you in the action more persistently and increases the likelihood you can emerge from an extended firefight unscathed.

Rounding out your loadout, simply removing your stock enhances sprint-shoot time, while also improving your speed. It’s only a 5% bump, but shootouts often come down to who is faster by a mere fraction of a second.

After making the above modifications, you will have produced the best Vector loadout in XDefiant, enabling you to use the weapon to tear through enemies as you zip around the map like an angry bee. Coupled with sufficient reflexes and skill, it permits you to sting opponents in ways they won’t soon forget.
