− | '''Description - '''The Vulcan is Nerf's biggest fully automatic blaster. It is powered by six D Batteries and is fed from a 25 dart belt. It comes with a tripod that allows the user to set it up and take control of an area. The Vulcan has three Tactical Rails for scopes and lasers. |

− | '''Range -''' 9/10 - On fresh, high-quality batteries, the Vulcan shoots about thirty to fifty feet, depending on how stiff and tightly-packed the darts are. |
||
− | |||
− | '''Accuracy -''' 7/10 - The Vulcan's accuracy is average due to its large barrel; however, the large barrel makes the blaster shoot farther due to little to no friction and the high rate of fire makes evasion nearly impossible. |

− | '''Reliability - '''8/10 - Complicated firing mechanism and heavy; great when fully loaded. Although the blaster is not likely to jam if the darts are tightly placed and the belt is fed smoothly. |
||
− | |||
− | '''Rate -''' 10/10 - Fire rate in this gun depends on the batteries. Most battery brands seem to have very limited discharge rates and will have a maximum fire rate of around 150 dpm (darts per minute). Using fully-charged Duracell batteries, the blaster can regularly achieve the advertised fire rate of 200dpm. High-voltage batteries can increase the fire rate even further (some modders getting as high as 500dpm). Regardless, the Vulcan can undoubtedly achieve exceptional fire rates. |

− | '''General - '''8.8/10 - The Vulcan is excellent for offense or defense, although its mass makes it better suited to defense unless the user is very skilled. This blaster will perform excellently as long as the user knows how to use/handle it correctly. |

The Vulcan EBF-25 (also known as the Havok Fire EBF-25 in Europe) is a large fully automatic Nerf blaster of the popular N-Strike line modeled after a belt-fed light machine gun/machine turret, released mid-2008. It operates using a 25-Dart Belt, which can be modified to be endlessly long. However, doing this means that the standard ammo box provided will not fit the entire belt. It uses 6 "D" batteries. It comes with a single 25 round belt, 25 Sonic Micro Darts, and a tripod. It also has 3 tactical rails, one on each side and one on top of the blaster. This blaster is included in the Nerf Wii game with its customized brother, the Vulcan Magma. The Vulcan has become notorious for jamming, though the most common reasons for jamming are because the darts are not tightly packed into each belt link. This causes very little air pressure to get to the dart which will frequently cause darts to get stuck between the chain and barrel. In 2009, a more reliable wave of Vulcans were released, and have much less jams. It was re-released in 2013 with a white and orange color scheme and stronger internals, but has since been discontinued due to the popularity of the N-Strike Elite line.
