i think vls is a little bit to op, its so accurate - pretty much never hits 0s on tank (dh) and you can hit 70s in spawnable gear with 25% special attack cost
Yes it does cost 80k and degrades - but you only spec with it so it doesnt even degrade fast
Ags and claws (idk why claws suck so much atm) are not even close in comparison to a vls, damage wise
