So I was waiting forever to get to Rank 3 for my Vanquisher VIII...
Finally hit Rank 3 today and I have 200 marks saved. Right when I hit rank 3 I went to the mail guy and got a Strange Coin, Mote of Light, AND a random Vanquisher VIII. The problem is this one does NOT have the stability perk.
So do I buy the Vendor Vanquisher VIII from New Monarchy or do I wait until the auto rifle nerf happens to see if this random one is better since when aiming down sight you get increased range. OR do I buy some gear, like gloves/boots, since I'm stuck at level 25 and still have those two pieces as blues.
Random Vanquisher has:
Rangefinder
Flared Magwell (making it max reload), Field Scount (max ammo), Armor Piercing Rounds
Feeding Frezny

I would take your V8 over the vendor one. Field scout makes the weapon viable in end game content. Stability doesn't even come close when it comes to improving your overall dps on a 22 magazine auto rifle.
