Looks nice. I'm thinking you can get those results with a really good Nym Motor, though an NS Unit would definitely do it.

due to high min damage it had to be a pretty exceptional NS motor....Nyms don't raise the min damage

On Sunrunner, not even close. Base Knucks are about 145 max damage with +24 range mods and 1035 condition using a 12 point weaponsmith and the best resources. Galaxies vary, but I doubt by such dramatic amounts.
Nym motors drop as +20 90% of the time, but go up to +30, which are probablly rarer than a Nightsister motor, which have a base of +30 and go up to +80ish that I have personally seen.
So, on sunrunner, that would be 165 damage with a +20 nym, 175 with a +30. A perfect slice of 35% damage with a +30 motors would yeild a max damage of 236.
Getting a +30 Nym Motor and a 35% damage slice have about the same odds as running into something that has the exact same name as you do, but in theory, it could happen.
At any rate, 236 is the best sunrunner could produce with the best of the best from Nym and Crafter. You would need nightsister and the best resources/crafter to get any higher.

This is a Nightsister motor weapon. I have proof.
First off, the weapon has high max and min damage, low speed, and a high wound %. The only way to achieve both of those is with a NS VK, as a Nym VK can only improve speed, or damage (MAX damage no less), or wound % chance. Not all of them.
Secondly, and this is the clincher, check out the range modifiers. Ideal range has been increased to +31 but the other range modifiers are normal. That's what a NS VK does.
This is a very nice weapon, and my congratulations. Just letting people know how it was made.

I really wish I could get my hands on some NS Vibro-Motors, I've been trying for a few months now but the NS cave is always cleared within minuites of the server coming up.
On FarStar one of our better WeaponSmiths made one recently & this is what came out. Bit of a higher damage range but still a VERY nice VK. Just a shame knowing my luck if I did get one... I'd get stuck with a Speed slice!
