The Comet VM2 is a MAX anti-vehicle arm available to the Vanu Sovereignty. The right arm is auto granted, and the left arm is unlocked through purchase with Certification Points or Daybreak Cash.

The Comet VM2 is a mid-range anti-armor arm, firing plasma orbs that deal moderate damage to armored targets. These orbs enjoy the Vanu's signature trait, and do not experience gravity.

This weapon's indirect damage scales up as the projectile travels, with the weapon only dealing its listed indirect damage after the projectile has traveled at least ten meters.
