Primed Chamber worth it?
Doesn't look too amazing but its ultra rare. I'm sitting on a pile of 2k ducats from my rabid relic farming. Is it worth getting some more to get it, to use it sell for plat in a few months?

Only if you are interested in it's collection value.

I personally got it cause there isn't much else left for me to get in this game.

Selling it for plat might be hard since it's rarity is it's only value at this point. The snipers that work well with it are outshined by others.

Primed Chamber is really only good on the Vectis and the Vectis Prime (with a high enough ranked Depleted Reload to reduce the mag to 1) since it increases the damage with every single shot) because t's basically a lower rank serration with reduced cost. Otherwise, it's not really good unless you don't mind constantly reloading

Primed chamber, argon scope hunter munitions build one shots lvl 120 corrupted heavy gunners without a riven. Vectis prime

As far as usability goes; Hell no. 3k ducats is way to much for what the mod offers. As for the issue of selling it; it's hard to say because we dont know when or how the mod will return. For all we know they can make it a rare drop from a new common enemy or boss in a few weeks basically plummeting its value even further. It's a gamble.

Its just MEME mod, nothing else. Totally not worth

So let's talk an actual use case scenario where it applies. So it doubles the damage on the first shot, which makes your 2 shot to be one shot and your 3 shot to be a 2 shot. Only weapon that does it is Vectis, otherwise you suffer reload penalties in time to kill, you kill in less shots but reload time counts as engagement time.
To pull it off on Vectis you need Depleted Reload, so you are wasting one mod slot that could add damage and potentially turn 2 shot into one shot to begin with.

So it is not a win win, not even for Vectis. Riven cannot roll over 50% negative mag capacity.

Considering that any sniper takes down parts in one or two shots with a rivened build and Volt's shields it is pretty arguable how valuable the Vectis Primed Chamber build is.

Redeemer Prime does not care to begin with, Trinity can be DPS with that.

And with Chroma anything can be a weapon.

So is it worth it? If you like Vectis yes, if you got nothing else to get then probably yes, and if you are looking for a useful flexible mod then look any other way.

Maybe, like, one thing, I am doing public Tridolons mostly and I run Trinity cause she keeps the mission up and in some instances I get a good team who has VS and they do a lot of AMP damage and we got no distinct DPS for health and parts so I take the role. I really got a very good Lanka and Redeemer Prime and for Trinity DPS I use VS to stack damage and take down parts and it is surprisingly good. In that scenario it may be enough to tilt my damage from 2 shots per part to one. But that is such a random scenario that i do not know.

Otherwise DPS Chroma will maintain his sniper combo high anyway, with his buff it's probably not worth it.

No not really.
There are better and way cheaper ways to boost Sniper Rifle's damage / crit.

Everybody is obsessed with Depleted Reload when it comes to Vextis prime+Primed Chamber.

Why waste a mod slot on Depleted Reload if you can just reload after the first shot any time you want bonus damage?
Reload speed bonus only saves you 0.4 seconds. Would be much beneficial to have another damage/utility mod instead. Am i missing something?

Makes vectis a beast. What most people forget is that the primed chamber doubles your damage after all other damage mods are taken into acocunt, including rivens, so no. It's not a "weaker serration". Plus, a vectis has a better disposition than a rubico.
It might turn out that it would be cheaper to buy it for platinum for those prime parts you wanted to turn into ducats instead. As it currently stand the primed chamber costs around 400 plat.

its not 100% damage like serration, this one applies at last on the formula like faction mod so its actually duplicate you damage after all mods.

If your purpose is to sell it later u will regret it. The price is already broke. Right now its just 300p. And will go down again. Then it will up for maybe 500p-600p max because its not that usefull and rare anymore. 3k ducat will probably get you more than 500p. And dont forget u end up have to wait 3-4 months just for 500p. If u have prime part that worth 3k ducats im sure u will get that amounts of plat right now. Dont have to wait

Because too much people repeat the same stupid stuff they read on internet... the vanilla vectis it's just crap with or without primed chamber. This mod it's only good on almost any sniper only if you use a raw hunter munition build but i don't understand why should i do that when other people can use the bramma spamming explosions everywhere and killing everything faster.
Instead the funny point is a lot of people have split flights and even this time no information about this mod, i feel scammed... And anyway they thought split flight clearly before the bramma was out, this game it's just a mess....

The fun part is that you can deal much higher dps with vectis p using... tool-assisted manual reload to shave off refire delay, but so far i've seen just retarded depleted reload/negative mag size riven builds, which is kind of shame.
