I've waited three weeks to rule out any coincidence and after checking this week's items on both vendors the rolls are the same. The only difference is that since Cassie sells you two restricted named items in the Shield Splinterer AR and the Hunter-Killer chest, the Countdown vendor will have one less named item than Cassie but the rolls on all three items will be the same as the ones Cassie has.

I don't know if this is intended, but it looks like it shouldn't be. For easy comparison, I'm listing the data I've gathered while doing the vendor reset for each of their named items in the 3 weeks after the patch, which includes the current one.

  • Week 1 Cassie:
    • Shield Splinterer (13.6% AR Damage, 16% Health Damag, 9.1% Accuracy)
    • Invisible Hand - AUG A3-CQC (13.8% AR Damage, 11.5% Health Damage, 8% Critical Hit Chance)
    • Hunter-Killer (132,290 Armor, 4,317 Armor Regeneration, 10.2% Critical Hit Damage)
    • Force Multiplier (1 Skill Tier, 10,5% Skill Haste, 14,658 Health)


  • Week 1 Countdown:
    • Force Multiplier (1 Skill Tier, 10.5% Skill Haste, 14,658 Health)
    • Invisible Hand - AUG A3-CQC (13.8% AR Damage, 11.5% Health Damage, 8% Critical Hit Chance)
    • Safety Distance - MPX (13.6% AR Damage, 16% Health Damag, 9.1% Accuracy)


  • Note Week 1: The Force Multiplier and Invisible Hand are identical and the Safety Distance gets the same attribute rolls the Shield Splinterer has.


  • Week 2 Cassie:
    • Shield Splinter (11.5% AR Damage, 16% Health Damage, 8% Critical Hit Damage)
    • The Darkness - SOCOM Mk20 SSR (10.2% MMR Damage, 96% Headshot Damage, 12.9% Swap Speed)
    • Hunter-Killer (147,132 Armor, 5.6% Explosive Resistance, 11.1% Skill Haste)
    • Contractor's Gloves (7.9% Weapon Damage, 8.0% Damage to Armor, 9.5% Skill Damage)


  • Week 2 Countdown:


  • The Darkness - SOCOM Mk20 SSR (10.2% MMR Damage, 96% Headshot Damage, 12.9% Swap Speed)
  • Glory Daze - Custom P416 G3 (11.5% AR Damage, 16% Health Damage, 8% Critical Hit Damage)
  • Contractor's Gloves (7.9% Weapon Damage, 8.0% Damage to Armor, 9.5% Skill Damage)


  • Note Week 2: The Darkness and Contractor's Gloves are identical, and the Glory Daze gets the same attribute rolls the Shield Splinterer has.


  • Cassie Week 3:
    • Shield Splinterer (11.6% AR Damage, 16% Helath Damage, 10.1% Accuracy)
    • Swap Chain - MP7 (11% SMG Damage, 15% Critical Hit Chance, 15% Swap Speed)
    • Hunter-Killer (129,477 Armor, 11.0% Critical Hit Damage, 4.7% Critical Hit Chance)
    • Strategic Alignment (1 Skill Tier, 8.7% Status Effects, 4,076 Armor Regeneration)


  • Countdown Week 3:
    • Swap Chain - MP7 (11% SMG Damage, 15% Critical Hit Chance, 15% Swap Speed)
    • The White Death - Classic M44 Carbine (11.6% MMR Damage, 137% Headshot Damage, 10.1% Accuracy)
    • Strategic Alignment (1 Skill Tier, 8.7% Status Effects, 4,076 Armor Regeneration)


  • Note Week 3: The Swap Chain and Strategic Alignment are identical. The White Death varies in it's unique attribute which is 137% HSD but the weapon damage and third attribute rolls are the same as the Shield Splinterer.


It would be good to know is this is intended and to pass it along to the dev team so they can take a look at the item generation.

Hello @rubenalamina! Welcome to Discussions!

Thanks so much for taking the time to put in the research and make notes about this. I'm not sure if this is working as intended or not, but I've gone ahead and reported this to the team so we can hopefully get some clarification on that soon. As soon as we hear back, we'll update and let you know. Thank you! 🙂

@rubenalamina You're welcome! Looks like the team updated and said they are waiting for Cassie to appear, so they can try and reproduce this issue. When I see any further updates about this, I'll let you know. Thanks!
