There is no "dual wielding" in the game. There is no "handedness" in the game either.

Rancor teeth replace a sword core or advaned sword core in weapons that use cores as a component (some swords even call for a sword core as an optional component). Everything I've read says that we can usually make better adv sword cores than the stats on the rancor teeth. Vibro Knucklers use a Blade Vibro Unit or Advanced Vibro Blade Unit which has a spot for an enhancement as well (a vibro motor). I have never personally tried to add a rancor tooth into the optional enhancement slot on a vibro blade unit, so I cannot say for certainty that it doesn't work, but I do not believe it does.

Hello,
I'm new to the TKM grind. Infact I only have unarmed 4 and im working towards Novice TK. I need about 80k more of unarmed XP. I've been hunting vors on dantooine in groups because I also need the money and I cannot solo anything yet as I'm too weak. (am I going about this the right way?) I picked up a pair of Vibro Knucklers. When I equip it says I do not have the skill to use them properly. I use them anyway.
--Should I be using them?
--Is it better to not use them? (my feeling is that it is better to use them than just bare knuckles)
--They have a 28% wound value. Since I haven't the skill to use them, what percent does the wound value drop to when I continue to use them?
--Is there a better unarmed weapon to use while grinding TKM?
Thank you for your help.

Yes you should still useVKs, preferably speed sliced. Use berserk as well. That will helpmake up for the lack of certification. I actually made a berserk macro that just spams it every 5 seconds or so. That way I could kick back in my chair or chat with buddies while making the grind to novice. Been up the unarmed tree 3 times now......

Yes speed sliced knucklers until you hit TK master. There is no other weapon than Vibro Knucklers for TK's right now, but Razor Knucklers are coming.
As far as what you're killing, voritors aren't bad, especially since you need cash. You might also want to consider pikets. The missions themselves aren't worth the much but the medical types always seem to like to buy the Dantooine Herbivore meat they drop. And, pikets don't put up quite as much of a fight as vors, and hey, who doesn't like slaughtering space girraffes?

I have one thats 2.2 speed, 46-217 damage, 35/56/35 H/A/M. with a 33% max dmg powerup that hits 288 max...... just wondering how good that is compared to everyone everywhere else.... and can VKs get DOTs or skill mods, or even legendary or exceptional?

there is no such thing as a 33% max dam melee powerup, max never shows up in the main slot of poerups, only second or third, the most max dam can get in a powerup is 16%, but it is still a very nice vk.

I dont use Vibro Knucklers when I PvP or PvE because my HAM costs just seem to high, but when the Black Sun Knuckler comes out I will probably use that

217 Max Damage is quite good. I suspect avery good damage slice
My current bestI can make on Bria is max 145 @ 2.2. 35% damage slice and it's max 195 or so.
I could bump that up 20 points or so with a +20 mym motor, or much higher with a NS Vibro unit.
I have never seen a 33% melee damage powerup though.
