The Prominence VE4 is a carbine available to the Vanu Sovereignty. It is unlocked through purchase with Certification Points or Daybreak Cash.

The Prominence Vanu Esamir 4, as compared to the Solstice VE3, is a carbine that sacrifices numerous stats, namely damage-per-second, in exchange for a larger variety in attachments and a lower first-shot recoil multiplier.

The Prominence VE4 provides a larger variety of attachments and better minimum damage over its base model, in exchange for a lower damage-per-second in the form of a 46 RPM reduction as well as a longer reload time.
