Does anyone have a pair of VK with advanced vibromotors? Im currently on lok trying to get some (managed to pick up 2 adv feed mechs) I was wondering if it was worth the effort.


all help appreciated

I believe they're worth it. I have two VK's made by a master and sliced for damage with the high-powered variety of motors. Their stats are 41-209 dam 2.1 speed and 34-196 dam 2.1 speed.


In my opinion, very worth it, add some kraytparts and it just makes me foam at the mouth.


I was the first on my server to figure out the motor situation, and kept it secret for some time, but now that it's out...Vibro Motors drop only from Nym's Brawlers...and only about every 10th or so you kill. Typicaly about 2-4 of them at a time and each drop has a different serial number, thus it's difficult to get a schematic for, each case needs to be handled/crafted individually from a pretty good smith to get the best results.


Hope that helped.

krayt tissue doesn't go into VK's or any melee weapon. Rancor teeth go into VK's



Response:


I've not delved into this aspect of it 100% yet. I know that Rancor teeth can, but I've also heard that there is a Krayt teeth component as well and that it can go into Melee weapons. Tissue is like he said, ranged only.

rancor teeth replace the core of the knuckler, and make the weapon kinda suck.


its better to get advanced vibro cores, that is a core made from diferant parts that vibros are normaly made from. These resources are super rare and you wont find people having millions of it floating around.


ask a master smith about ( advanced vibro cores) then add a vibro motor to it. slice it, and other then that, thats all i know that can be done, Ive never heard of anything like krayt teeth, but it would be nice, since krayt tissue can be 51% min and max, and doesn't replace a current part of the weapon.

i'll quote myself on somthing CYA thing. im not 100% sure onthe krayt tissue and rancor teeth thing, only about 95% sure, this is from people ive talked with, and message boards. Ofcourse people could lie /shrug

According to Vigo, one of the best weaponsmiths on Bria, you cannot use Rancor teeth or Krayt tissue to enhace a VK. He said all you can do is make the enhanced components. Just what I heard...and he makes more Krayt and Rancor enhanced ranged weapons on Bria than anyone else...

Krayts drop tissus(ranged only), armor segments, and scales. Currently scales are bugged and don't work "yet". What they are for I do not know. The icon looks like hide so becareful not to throw them away.

So, by horribly selective application of realism and gameplay physics that would make Newton roll over in his grave, ranged weapons already have a tremendous advantage over melee weapons. Then, on top of that, they get 51% powerups, and we get what... a 20 point powerup?

sorta, but by nature Vibro knucklers are tremendiouly bad in stature. heck you could get one at 300 max dmg, and thats outstanding dmg, infact better then the best ranged weapons on the market with krayt and all.


this is because everyone else gets better weapons for their dmg increase. TKs get +185 dmg mods just by leveling. This is significant because these mods with a 300 dmg vibro in hand, is extremly dangerous.

Didn't know Krayt parts could go into VK's...


Ranged weapons I've heard, but VK's? Can anyone - the poster included - confirm this?
