Acquisition[]

The Supra Vandal is now potentially sold by Baro Ki'Teer in the Concourse section of the Tenno Relay for 
275,000 and 
500. Note that Baro Ki'Teer's stock changes with each appearance, and this weapon may not be available on a succeeding appearance.
The weapon can be traded, but only for unranked copies without Forma and Orokin Catalyst installed. The trading recipient must also have a Mastery Rank of at least 14.
This weapon can be sold for 7,500.
Notes[]
- Cancelling the reload animation on its third-quarter period counts as a reload, much like the Soma.
Tips[]
- Supra Vandal has a decent fire rate like the Gorgon, but it is less accurate at longer distances. Firing in short bursts may help with accuracy.
- Alternatively, use the mod Stabilizer or Vile Precision reduce the high recoil, making it more controllable to fire.
- To counter the weapon's quick ammo consumption, bring Squad Ammo Restores, Rifle Ammo Mutation, Carrier with Ammo Case, Vigilante Supplies and/or the Rifle Scavenger aura.
- Shred or Metal Auger can help hit more enemies, somewhat balancing the high ammo consumption.
- Due to the large magazine size of 300 bullets, Wildfire is a viable option for this weapon as it can add Heat damage and provided a sizeable increase to the magazine size
Trivia[]
- The Supra Vandal was the first Vandal weapon to be fully colourable.
- As of Update 22, all other Vandals (and Wraiths) are now fully colourable.
