The Terminus VX-9 is an assault rifle available to the Vanu Sovereignty. It is unlocked through purchase with Certification Points or Daybreak Cash.

Vanu Labs' Terminus VX-9 fills a role as an adaptable and mobile quick-firing rifle in the Vanu arsenal. Though firing slower than and lacking the 0.75x ADS movement speed multiplier of the H-V45, Icon NC GR-22, and Icon TR TAR, the Terminus instead has a faster reload speed and considerably more controllable recoil, affording it an edge at range over those rifles, especially when combined with the weapon's more generous damage fall-off.
