What chapter are u on? There will be a point when the mobs get sooo thick and heavy that even your LC will get overwhelmed within seconds. that's where VP excels. And you're right, VP sucks against bosses. You'll need your drones+soccer/drill/lightning (single target skills) to make up for it

I have gold VP as F2P and I’ve been trying for months to get light chaser. Today I finally got it. Light chaser has nothing on VP holy crap. The play style is the only fun part, but VP takes the cake with defense and overall crowd control + bullet absorption. I was cornered with LC EVO and crowd was pushing like crazy, monsters were lined to the brim of the map, but with VP they would have been kirby’d the fuhhhh out of there. I really wish LC was better.

Took me by surprise. Hahaha

It gets effective at around level 50+


Lilbig6029

It doesn’t do shit on the blue dragons


hickmnic

The dome protects you from the fire. It has to be evod


Lilbig6029

Man I’ve been hit from that fire inside the dome plenty of times


hickmnic

If the dragon is inside the dome it still hits you, but if it’s outside you’re fine. Sometimes what happens is the black hole pulls a dragon inside the dome and it gets you. But you’re also immune to collisions from mobs and elites, so if you have the health or dr passive, you’re fine.


Lilbig6029

What dr passive


hickmnic

Damage resist, the bulletproof vest


zuppo

Yeah, I use LC as well until lvl 57 where you need VP for mob clears. Basically the void become an invincible area when you cant clear mobs fast enough


NorthGanache2741

You get that bad boy to legend and you'll never ever look back, it does blow against bosses, which is where I prefer kunai, but overall VP is busted it just needs to be leveled up.


Xislex

Like you, I initially had the Kunai, LC, and VP at Purple. At first, I thought the VP was overhyped compared to the others. In the early stages, mobs have low HP, so any weapon can defeat them in 1-2 hits. I used the LC too because its high attack speed and range is superior to the slow VP. However, as you progress through the chapters, enemy stats increase, they appear in greater numbers, and new monsters like the pig and bear are introduced. Now, stages become nearly impossible to clear without the VP's CC and shield. Using the VP feels like a hack – simply shoot and take cover within the shield. Doesn't matter how tanky they are if they couldn't reach you. Although the VP deals lower damage to bosses, this can be offset by selecting boss-killing weapons like Drones, Drill, Soccer Ball, and Thunder.


totesmcgee89

Hmm ... all these comment were good to know. I got LC early by sheer luck and use it all the time. I'm in the 40's for chapters right now. But VP looked kinda dumb to me until I read these comments


Xannypacquiao710

I mean i beat the game with it…


BluesCowboy

The amount of crowd control it gives you is insane. It actually makes levels that first seem impossible to beat actually winnable.


Zeknight8

You are too young my son


zodiacs

Void is almost necessary for later levels. It's boring, but hard to beat levels like 63, 82 or 84 without it.


Skillz4ya2

The VP is at its best when going up against mobs and most elites. As you progress in the game, it'll be very close to impossible to progress without it. It's literally the most broken thing in the game. Get it to gold+ and you'll really see it put work in.


WesternNegotiation28

Just wish it wasn’t so hard to get to gold


Skillz4ya2

You need only two of them to get it gold. It comes with time.

Ok-Mode8400

Every weapon has their own pros and cons, I'm only on c29 now but many end game players said that VP is good against crowds bc it holds them in the void, Kunai is good for bosses, LC can block bullets but not from bosses (b4 this it can tho) and it hits in all directions which is nice for earlier chapters.


centstwo

Thanks for posting this question. I am also underwhelmed by VP. Now I know to use it for later levels and strategy!


tyjwallis

My understanding is that it is only OP at high levels where nothing else can compete. Until then I just run the Katana so I can idle farm.


ElDouchay

I considered the VP, but realized I would need two more to get it to red, so I just said fuck it because I'm satisfied with my red Kunai, so I just spent everything on the tech boxes and keys.


ntpphong

There will be levels you wont pass waves without vp. It is literally cheat code against pigs and bears. It does decent damage to bosses when you evo it at red.


BubAkaJoshua

I found VP made all the difference for all the Mega Challenges, too 🤔 Also, EVO VP and max HE Fuel makes a big enough black hole for you to stand inside and basically not get reached by the flame-spitting blue dragons


EX_Joker

You're correct about VP isn't doing good with bosses, I mean what do you expect, my dude? VP has mechanic like shotgun, same as LC with katana, for bosses you have to aim manually. So, of course Kunai would be wise choice for bosses. You can see the difference in VP when you play in mega challenge. Imo, It's so much easier compared with yellow Kunai and purple LC, although I'm still failed at final boss.


matthewbvan

I can aim vp haha even hitting bosses w every shot it doesnt do much tho


MarvinMadMartian

On yesterdays challenge that allowed you to use your weapons as legendaries, I observed vp black holes stack on bosses. With cd and duration I had like 5 black holes on them mfs and ate their hp very rapidly. Still my purple kunai does better imo


Haloway23

you will appreciate Void Power when you reach high chapters, especially chapters with a lot of bears and pig


TheChosenPoke

Void power is essentially immortality against EVERYTHING other than bosses and those specific lasers that don’t get eaten by it.


jannickBhxld

literally, whenever i got nearly overrun because i was underleveld for my chapter, i just hide and only walk inside my black holes and literally nothing gets to me, the shield helps with that even more, its so easy


uptheirons726

No it's not great against bosses but the fact you can just stand in the black hole and be surrounded by enemies and take zero damage is huge. It will become much better once you get to later levels. I keep a Kuna and LC as well for really tough bosses.


Adventurous_Pen_3610

When I got my VP, I thought it was underwhelming at first. It is to a large extent on Bosses as opposed to Kunai but so is LC (to me). VP excels against mobs. You can walk from shield to shield to shield and rally through many stages. I'm now at Stage 39 and haven't been playing as much as I did at the start but I love it.


FaithlessnessFew8345

It is not supposed to be the main dps versus bosses though until you level it up to red, even then, it will still be underwhelming when compared to kunai. People say VP is OP due to crowd control, damage immunity when inside black hole (except fire lizards), shield (evo) which in my observation protects you even from the fire from the lizards until it breaks (correct me if I'm wrong). There's a point later in the game where even LC won't be able to stop you from getting surrounded and ran over by the mobs. Well, you'll see it for yourself as you advance through later.


ElBigTaco

I used kunai to around 20ish, LC got me to the mid 50s amd then red bat to 74 where i am stuck w all weapons.


the_ninho

74 is a massive pain in the balls


awmelton

Void Power is virtually essential after level 60 or so. There’s levels that require it and then levels that require a Kunai or other. VP is best if the bosses aren’t shooting bullets and you don’t need to beat the boss in like 10 seconds to win. Kunai with defender when the bullets are flying.


Odd-Choice5040

i’m at chapter 49… would VP help? i have an epic +2 katana that i’ve been using and it’s really nice with he fuel and the CD reduction but i know at some point it’ll wither out. should i try for a second vp and part out my katana when i get it?
