It's the end of Vector no Free Fire! Garena decides for a big NERF and will reduce several attributes

Vector, love it or leave it! This is the slogan that a good part of the community has faced since the arrival of the first Akimbo weapon (two-handed mode) to Free Fire. It is no wonder that Garena decided for a big "nerf" in order to disable the weapon in matches.

The developers of Garena's Battle Royale decided to reduce numerous attributes of the weapon, the list is huge and will practically be a new Vector from the April 2021 update.

Vector Free Fire: it's the end of the weapon in Battle Royale!

 "Vector
Vector is Free Fire's first Akimbo weapon, available in both hands.

The Vector Free Fire weapon, also known as Vector Akimbo, was already present in the game in 2017, at the time of the launch of the beta version and Garena brought it back in December 2020.

There is no doubt that Vector, in Akimbo (two-handed) mode, is the most powerful weapon in Contra Squad and, to balance things out, developers will reduce their range and increase their recoil to enable the use of other weapons from short and medium range.

Headshot multiplier

With the reduction from 550% to 400%, Vector Akimbo (when held with two hands), will do less damage to the head.

For example, if before you did 55 damage to your head, now you will only do 40.

Accuracy in Akimbo mode

Another change implemented by the developers is Vector's accuracy. In Akimbo mode, the weapon will have 10% less accuracy, that is, the shots will hit less.

Akimbo indentation

In addition, the Recoil will also be changed, with an incredible 50% increase, Vector will spread even more shots than normal, half of the shots will not be hit on the target.

Reload Speed

Another change is in the speed of the reload, which as the name says, is the speed with which the gun reloads the cartridge.

According to Garena, Vector will reload 25% slower from the Free Fire April 2021 update .

Cartridge Size

Finally, the cartridge size has also been reduced. Previously the number of bullets was 30 and now they are only 25 bullets per cartridge. Remembering that Vector does not have elongated cartridges.

In short, Vector had a " nerf " with 5 attributes worsened, resulting in virtually the elimination of the weapon in the competitive and ranked in the game. It remains to wait for the update to know if it will still be possible to use the equipment in other modes, such as Contra Squad .
