0 pepew Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 ya that is cuz the mod syndicate give +200 multishot to hek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Dominik1231 Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Yes, if vaykor hek hits with crit then its better than hek. However, normally normal hek is better with dealing more damamge. I have tried tonkor and it deals much more damage and is more effective than hek or vaykor hek. I haven't tried synoid simular YET, but i will forma it one day ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Kthal Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 The Vaykor Hek has a higher sustained damage than the standard Hek with Augment. If you have a max rank Primed Ravage, the Vaykor Hek is superior on per-shot damage. As for Synoid Simulor and Tonkor... Don't compare shotguns to launchers.

0 BabyBomi Posted January 2, 2016 Author Share Posted January 2, 2016 I've always liked the feeling of having range tho, so I was just considering them that's all. Hmm so if I don't have primed ravage I should just get hek? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Prime Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Don't compare shotguns to launchers. true. try out all weapons you can get and decide what you like the most.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 pepew Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 hek ---- high lvl enemy, I use for raid or for mission with little enemy but high lvl vaykor hek --- farm low, medium enemy synoid simulor --- in mirage u can do all u want, I use for farm, raid, sleep, eat, whatever in mirage tonkor -- 2 shot, need to aim, I don't like it, I was trying to put formas but I get bored, im lazy to aim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 ZetraThorn Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 If you are willing to go full crit build which would require at least 2-3 forma then Vaykor Hek will edge out Regular hek + Mod.It is especially tru if you are using primed Ravage.

0 nickelshark Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Vaykor Hek is superior in every way. Yes it is a bit more pricey in mods, but the extra four shots and higher fire rate go a long way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 leocww Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Vaykor Hek is superior than its normal version, IF you have a maxed Primed Ravage on it. Not to mention V. Hek has double magazine capacity than normal hek, which I find it quite useful in higher level missions. Otherwise, hek with scatter justice augment mod will be overkill for any usual missions. As for Synoid Simulor & Tonkor, pretty much the above posts has answered the question. They are different types of weapons to be compared, but both are awesome to have.

0 Egg_Chen Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 What others have said, a Vaykor is better if you have Primed Ravage. Also consider that with possible changes to Multishot coming, that Hek augment may change for the worse. For example if it used ammo from the clip, your Hek could have 1 or 2 shots in it! We don't know yet what will change, but its worth bearing in mind. Overall I prefer the Vaykor, 8 shots and faster fire rate make it a nicer weapon to use.

0 Z3ox Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Like everyone said...the V.Hek is superior than the normal hek, IF you have a maxed Primed Ravage. Think with 2 or 3 crit mods you have over 50% of crit chance per bullet, plus the damage of 2 elementals mods, multishot (if the nerf of that is don't coming soon) and the primed damage mod for shotguns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 BabyBomi Posted January 3, 2016 Author Share Posted January 3, 2016 I don't like waiting for primed ravage, since it's unreliable because u don't know when baro will have it. I'm good with putting formas into the vaykor tho, and going full crit build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 OniGanon Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 If you have neither and are MR12, get the Vaykor Hek. No doubt about it. You can stress about on-paper numbers all you want, but VHek's doubled magazine means it craps all over the normal Hek all day every day in actual practical usage. Now if you already have a pimped out, potatoed and polarised normal Hek and you aren't swimming in credits, Formae and spare time, upgrading to VHek might not be worth the effort until such a time that those things are no longer a concern for you.

0 Kthal Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 I'm MR6 and still ranking up the syndicate (only rank 2 atm). Syndicate primaries require MR12 to obtain and use. This includes both buying from the Syndicate directly, and trading with another player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 S0V3REiGN Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 With Primed Ravage the damage potential of between both Heks is minimal. They are both good on high level missions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 ThorienKELL Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Ive seen lot of debates in this topic on various places. There is great comparison somewhere on yt, I think ggg did it. Vaykor variant is clearly better however scattered justice mod more then makes up for it. With proper mods you can get 6 round magazine in hek and very reliable damage output with minimal investment. If you're willing to invest more forma and more expensive mods, vaykor variant can still swim out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
