30 energy caps off of 50 Nyms? Man I wish I had your luck.






Dude, I would swop all those for even one damn motor. Been killing Nyms left, right and center, and still no luck. Those capacitators...junk to me. I sold each of em for like 6k on bazaar, and they sold like hotcakes for some reason 0-0. Almost 5 minutes after I put em on, they were all sold. Anyway, I would even buy the damn motors, but no-one I know actually sells em..it sucks.

Droideka caves on Lok, POI. My first time there i looted 3 Nym Vibro Motors. From what? I don't know. I did get them all made with much higher damage than regular weapon smiths. All with great range modifiers, +11-+20. My bst one also got a lucky damage slice and now does max damage of 219. I haven't checked out the max damage with a PuP. The other 2 got speed sliced

I'm starting to think Chris is right -_- whacked another 50 Nyms today, and no damn motors. You sure they even drop them? I dunno, just getting hard to believe, ugh. And Xadius, I dont really mind, to be honest. Hey, I musta made their day anyway, heh. Besides..I just got another bunch today. Wonder how much they sell for really...

The High Powered Motors drop from any "nym" npc on Lok. Surveyors/Brawlers will only drop them in singles, while higher npcs (patrols, guards) will drop 3 at a time. The highest mobs (droidekas, elites) drop4 at a time. Like it's been stated before, the damage ranges from +20 to +29.


And yes, drops are very very rare. The npcshave a chance of dropping 1 enhancer, but "nym" ppl have 4 enhancers dropping offa them. The now useless Feed Mechanism, the always useless +Wound Motor, the half used, most often destroyed Capacitor and the High Powered Vibro Motor.


The way I've been most succesful at acquiring them is to get 2 missions, both same direction, about 300m from one another. After the movement of the WP, the missions should be at 600m from one another. Kill all the mobs at one mission, drive to the other, come back to the first...repeat and rinse. The missions die after 4-5 runs, depending on how fast you can kill the npcs. I've usually been able to get a 4 loot drop every 2 hours, though you'll get lucky sometimes (got 9 motors tonight). After slice, anything 200+ will sell very well

I hadn't heard of the jawa drops. Are they really that bad? Higher minimum damage is useful when you are pvping against peeps with damage mitigation.





They are about +10 to minimum and maximum damage, +5 to wounds and +10 to all HAM.

I'd rather have another 20 max damage than 10 less, with 10 more min, 5 more wounds and 10 more ham.

Whatever people will pay for them. I'm amazed they aren't more popular, but it's nice because they sell for much more reasonable prices. I typically would pay 20-30k for one, but they go as high as 100k each if someone is nuts for em on my server. +20-29 damage is nice, standard krayt tissue is +30.

The main problem with these is that I've never seen a same serial set larger than 4. A couple guns require 5, 6 (LLC for example) and same serial enhancers and the T21 is 11 of course.

Due to singles being so common, I typically have them made into Scatters and E11's.
