I just crafted a NEL last night, the nightsister vibro units were pre-cu, converted to 57max and -20 speed -7 AC. Upon crafting the lance is less damage, higher SAC, lower DPS than a converted crate of my standard Vibro Lances. Unless you want sparkly effects you might want to take a pass on this.

This was already said but I will restate it more clearly:
Go to the Nightsister Stronghold (with a good sized group) and go down to the cave out front. Assuming you are insanely lucky and no one is/has camped the cave yet that day (your target spawns once in 24 hours), there should be an NPC there named Axkva Min. She is a nightsister elder. She is strong and does not mess around. She has friends too, namely a small horde of Nightsister Protectors and various rancors. She drops two items you need: the Nightsister Energy Lance Schematic and the Nightsister Vibro Units (you need two). This means you have to successfully kill and loot her twice, assuming she dropped exactly what you needed both times. Trust me when I tell you she will not.
How hard she is post-CU, I'm not sure. Pre-CU, she had 100% resistance to everything but Blast and Energy damage, meaning we pikemen couldn't even damage her unless we already HAD an energy lance. Hah. I guess that means she can only be easier now, since she was impossible enough before.
On top of all that, a well-made Vibrolance is just as good if not better and will probably cost you under 30k.
So to summarize, to get an NSEL, might as well sell your soul for it.

I got damn lucky a while back right before i mastered pikeman actually the server crashed and was reset as soon as i got back online my friend told me to haul arse to the stronghold so we could kill her before the usual campers got there and we ended up looting 9 of the vibro units and a friend had a schematic so it didnt cost me anything more than resource and labor cost to have them made. 50k per lance

Rock on, great deal.
I got mine for 3 mil on the forums a while back. Pre-CU it was kinda crummy, speed-sliced.. but it was the first weapon I had that I speed-capped with. Now, its one of my better weapons.. roughly as good as my Kashyyyk bladestick.

I solo her every day. Shes actually easier now with the right build, hell she was a challenge to solo before, now i dont even break a sweat. Its actually alot harder to get to her (since your solo a bad pull means /burstrun) than it is to beat her. Thats why im here at this board, trying to see how these lances compare nowadays, got a schematic last time i killed her. I remember when the schem went for 5mil on my server, by the sound of it they wont anymore. Also, she doesnt spawn once a day anymore. I dont know how long of a respawn but me and a friend kill her every day (at different times). We originally went in together but then realized we could solo it with no problems. He gets her in the morning and i get her in the afternoon.

Price-wise on Starsider, that's about right, what it was before CU anyways. I got mine for 8 mil. =)
