Getting the "best" material is one thing but after an talk with a melee weaponsmith i deal with all the time he says the experimentation also helps out a lot.

"my Curved blade: fast, accurate, reliable

my Ryyk blade: slower, very powerful, misses a lot"

I've been trying to make sense of this recently...anyone else notice the Range Mods stats? Don't tell me it's only for ranged weapons please or else I'll point j00 to read the manual! Anyways, every curved sword sa far I've seen has had a postive range mods stat like 7/7/7 or even a 10/10/10 - these are suppose to affect the little number next to a target's name, the accuracy bonus. Most Ryyk's I've used or seen are well into the negatives in the Range Mod stat, that's why I "think" they tend to miss more.

Aynways, my two cents.

In tattoine starsider look for Merchant. He is an excellent swordsmith. I bought a Rykk Blade off himthat has a stat of 71-168 damage 2.6 speed.

I had it sliced and now it is.. 80+ - 200+ (forgot the last digit but it was 80+ minimum damage and maximum damage of 200+ but not over 210) speed 2.6

LOL Flux! Your not kiddin... I got wise once I read the armor faq and stopped wearing it while in small groups or soloing where I need my special moves...

Also.. never go up to a nightsisterdathomirthat has a polearm while your not wearing armor....

I have afast curved sword (slicedfor speed)

74-168 dmg; 1.9 speed ; Ham 31/56/40

When we post weapon stats.. we really need to post all the information... such as range and HAM drains.. For instance.. the damage on my Ryyk is great.

87-201 (sliced)

2.7 delay

-9/-9/-9

56/46/36 (or something really close that that.

Whats that mean? It means it hits hard, but sucks when using special moves. I use it when I'm wearing armor and tanking for a big group where I don't need a lot of specials except for taunt. I've killed myself many times doing moves with it. Even when not wearingarmor it hurts me way to much...

So.. I'm currently looking for two weapons for soloing/dueling.. a 2.x delay curved sword with decent damage and low HAM drain. And a stun baton with decent delay and low HAM drain... I got a weapons crafter working on both and will post when I get the stats on them..

I've got the same exact sword Jedi.. not sliced yet though. I bought 5 of them that are very comparable. I'm going to get them sliced tonight and see what happens.
