Thread: Katarn Knuckle slicing

Well...... Slicing can not bring the weapon past the hard cap set for each weapon i.e. a vk cannot have more than 400 max dmg and go lower than 1.5 for speed (just an example I don't remember what it really is for a vk). On that post, however, it does not have the hard cap for any of the new Kashyyyk quest weapons so that means that they either don't have a hard cap or it's not known (and I'm guessing it's the latter). Has anyone gotten their knuckles of the katarn sliced post pub 19? Just wondering because if I go out looting all the stuff required for slicing damage and it turns out we're capped after the base slice then that would be a huge waste of time.

I sliced one this morning for 100% on speed, brought the speed up by 12%


Can't recall the speed, but I DO recall that the base dps was around 370-ish


My modded DPS with it was 520 or so..


Wish I could use one

I can't get my Katarn Knuckler sliced. I got one of the pre-biolink knucklers, so i can only put it in my inventory or bank and can't trade ima hafta go buy another one to get sliced.

That sucks!!


There are caps on weapons speed and damage but we have no idea what they are until we ruin a weapon with a slice that wont work?!?! Is that right?

I've been waiting for ages for this!!! I could have waited longer and had it done cheaper, but I just dished out 200K to have it done. Couldn't wait any longer. lvl 3 damage slice, lvl 1 speed, and lvl 1 crit hit bring my knucklers to attack speed 1.96, modified speed 1.23, damage 386-772, elemental damage 120, wound 2.7%, estimated base DPS 356.63, and for the grand finally a modified DPS of 569.94!!! Wicked. Gonna ADK it and cherish it forever...

updated the info, yes the triggers are used for the other stages in slicing for speed i think, the core is for damage, forgot to mention the 16 unarmed melee damage clothing i had



Was wondering which is the best knuckler, the speed one or the damage one, ?

i did a full 12% (max customise 100%) speed slice on one Knuckler (more data to follow) my max dps was 638

and a Damage, Crit Hit 3% and Speed on my other one

I'm a little confused. To do a max speed slice, I thought you needed a delicate trigger not a illegal damage core. And, is there still a speed cap for TKM? There was pre-CUrb, I'm not sure if there still is. If so, would this make the modified DPS a little misleading? Wow, though! I like that 638 dps! I hope I didn't do the wrong thing by attaching my ADK to the 1 I sliced... to late now...

Your numbers are incorrect for a 12% speed slice it's 100% customization.

Look at this for weapon and armor slicing info; Clicky

Illegal Core Boosters are rare.

So have any of you guys compared which is the better slice to go? The one with the 100% speed or the max damage/1 speed/1 critical?


Just got my Katarns today and was hoping to get some more info before slicing them. I'm looking to add more damage but I'm a little confused cause I read that going for speed gives a higher DPS.


Many thanks!

Proven to be not working, and even if those ever work, unarmed damage mods nowadays do not apply when fighting with a knuckler.
