The voc used to be the best. Fang, another nitc and rapier are all better. Stability on scouts is over rated. The rifles settle before the next chit can be fired. All 3 of the rifles I listed have the same rate of fire and impact as the voc but they all hit harder. They do a little over 200 more dps per second than the voc. That's HUGE. It's fling to be an even bigger gap come HoW. I posted the test numbers not long ago. Another nitc spanks the voc for anything other than solar damage.
