I perfer Veteran over Vigilante.

As a vigilante in town of salem, I always find myself being basically useless. Not shooting anyone for most of the game (unless I get controlled).

As a veteran, sure, I could kill a townie, but the first time I kill someone, no townie in their right mind will visit me because I'm confirmed town (unless the townie didn't leave a will). A non-town killing role might risk killing me because I am a confirmed town member. Which allows roles like investigators and doctors do other things. Witches and consorts won't visit you because they can't do s**t to you. And more likely than not you're going to be left until last so mafia/coven doesn't risk losing members.
