Best status effect for index

[Vlambulance-YouTube]

What wil be the best status effect on a VECTIS PRIME for high index?

Toxic damage procs willl cause direct to health damage overtime based on the damage caused when the status got applied, anything that doesn't fall from the shot will die of the poison, best used with human brokers.

Stick Hunter Munitions on it for slash procs, at the very least

After that, run Viral if you want to buff your Slash procs, or consider Corrosive if you also want a way to deal with the armoured brokers, assuming your crits don't take care of them entirely

1 hit wonder?? radiation 90% mods + point strike, vital sense, serration and split chamber. Last 2 slots preference. Could be charged chamber + depleted reload, could be riven / vigilante armaments / toxin 90% / toxin 60%.

I don't recommend building any sniper for status chance since they're main purpose is 1 shot 1 kill. to hit a reliable status chance, you'll need 3-4 60/60 mods and that will lower your shot damage enough that you NEED the proc to kill. Hunter's munitions is similarly meh since you won't see the slash hit that often.

If you want to build a status weapon go with tigris prime and rad / viral slash build using all 4 60/60 mods -- each shot should proc many effects because of the pellet effect of shotgun where vectis will proc at most 2-3 with non-riven multishot.

Viral/ slash.

Then a rad secondary for the occasional raptor.

Magnetic actually doesn't perform that well in index, I've found. Running Titania, blast/corrosive is a lot more effective, doubling as a nearly guaranteed knockdown on top of being an excellent damage boost.

Magnetic is unnecesary when running vectis prime because it has high puncture and impact damage, both counter pretty well Index bosses, is better to run Toxic and Rad damage wich are the weakness of flesh and robotics.

If you are full build with prime mods, fully upgraded usually you will 1 shot anyways.
If you are newbie it is not necessarily best to gear towards index because it will cost you alot of resources.

Rhino's not really that expensive, Strike. His iron skin mod would cost maybe 20p at most (10p from most buyers), and you really only need armour mods and a good weapon on top of that to make him index-ready. Granted, people fresh to the game aren't going to be geared for the index. But most players will have the necessary equipment to complement an entry-level rhino if they just want to farm low-risk to get out of the rat race for credits.
