PH sliced for speed, or NK Executor sliced for damage. I have a PH with 300 base DPS and 88 SAC; Also an NK-Executor with 300+ base DPS (while equipped) and a SAC of 91. The DPS on the NK actually goes up when you equipp it because of the extra speed boost skill it has. That is why you give the NK damage slices instead of speed.

i have recently converted from pikes to swords because pike sux now :/ and found a 340+ base dps ph on the bazaar(so it was under 20k). My modified dps is around 560so i would expect this to be good. Any of you vet swordsman know if it is? From the post i would say ph is the way to go but i'd rather have an old pre-cu scythe looked cool

Do not fall for dps since it is a pure mathematical number. SAC and max damage are the numbers to look for. Also make sure the weapon has no powerup on it. There are stil some scammers on the bazaar selling weapons with pubs on it hoping some boons that only look for dps buy them.

The sac cost doesn't increase you just use action at a more rapid pase because of the speed.

Well, in my day, I've seen some pretty nifty N-K Executors. But, if you wanna pay a bundle you can buy one or you can fight Necrosis. But, if you do end up getting one, just know that it will be cheaper, and you'll probably have a better chance using a Power Hammer rather than a N-K Executor. My Hammer does a max of 1200 Damage and I think the best I've seen on a N-K Executor is like 1K. And my PH has 90 SAC too, which I can bring down to 65 with the right power up.

Go with Power Hammer, N-K Executors are flashy but, in duels go PH.

Powerhammers unfortunately, next to that is the N-K Executioner (or Sith sword). Pre-CU converted Powerhammers still sell, it's too difficult to make a decent damage PH post-CU without penalizing SAC, best PH I've made was something like 500-1106 but SAC was 119 then a 90 SAC with 859 max dmg, that's why they aren't selling very well anymore.

wow on flurry you can get 82 sac 1k+ dam ph

I just found a PH with a SAC of 96 on Lowca, it has a low DPS, but I have a smuggler that owes me some favors. I'll see about getting it sliced for damage.

Powerhammer in most cases

Where do you get a Sith Sword?

Weaponsmith?

Quest?

Loot?

It's a quest reward on Kashyyk. I can't remember which NPC gives the quest.
