First of all, 444% is a damage bonus, so the actual damage multiplier is 5.44x.

Second of all, Vex armor's damage multiplier is squared when using a weapon with an extra combination element slapped onto it. (For example, a tigris prime with blast will do 29.5936x damage.)

Third of all, Vex armor's damage multiplier is cubed when using a weapon that has only has a single combination element on it. (For example, an arca plasmor that only does radiation damage will do 160.989184x damage.)

Because of this, a weapon that only has a single element on it or a combination element on it are superior to a weapon that does more IPS damage when using Chroma. Most of the time though, it won't really matter because Vex Armor along with almost any weapon in the game and a fair amount of modding is capable of annihilating any enemy on the star chart in a single hit.
