What are the stats for a Top Of the Line VK?

Post all aspects of the good VK's that are realistic of course.

somthing around 40-145 unsliced with no perks is about max.

There is some talk about advanced vibro cores, and i dont know were they come from or what they add.

power motors i guess come from lok somewere and add +20 to max dmg giving this 40-145 vk 40-165 unsliced.

i think the core adds some min and max dmg like 10% or somthing and takes off some speed.

So unsliced perhaps we are looking at a 50-170 VK with the best resources at like 2.0 speed.

sliced somthing like 60-230 or somthing. add some power ups make it around 90-300 2.0 speed

wild stab in the dark btw

I'm curious what you mean by "the core". Otherwise looks about right.

mine are 46-208 @ 2.2 37-52-37

i love em

Get used to farming your own parts on LOK(nyms).

with a 20 max motor got 160-154's made

170 are possible

add a fat slice and bam!

So who exactly do you kill to get these vibro motors? Nyms from missions? or specific ones?

Pyper

yah im also interested in knowing what to kill for dropped peices. Nyms are fairly easy methinks

On Gorath we had a master weaponsmith get a really lucky vibro unit schematic. He was creating unsliced 47-160 / 2.1 36-45-36 Vibroknuckles.

Too bad he only made the schematic for 100...all 99 of his VKs sold out within 5 hours....

The Vibro Motors drops off any NPC with "Nym" in their name.

I got 4 off a Nym yesterday on Lok, so I got a few questions you may be able to answer:

1. Those Advanced Cores - are those drops or WS manufactured items?


2. How many Vibro Motors and Cores do you need per VK?

The advanced core is a component that can be made using only rare resources (similar to the advanced components used by medics/doctors). It's provides a better final product but requires that ultra rare resource. I have VKs made with the advanced core but no motor (no class 2 petro or whatever it is so I bought pre-made ones) 50-190/2.2 with decent HAM. I think only 1 is needed per VK.

From what I've seen, there are 2 types of motors - the high frequency motors increase wounds and the high poewred motors increase damage.

This is a good time to call on your TKM/Commando or TKM/Doc buddies.


Problem with LOK is lots of other mobs will jump you if not carfeul.


The ratio on drops is about 1 in 25.

Hopefully with the new publish coming up the drop rate or quality will increase.

The nice thing is the Nym drop 2 or more at a time. So you can get 4 motors on one nym, which makes up for the bad drop ratio.


Mercanaries dont drop them, imperial deserters dont drop em. Corsairs I havent farmed enough to tell. Nym droideka dont drop them.

North/NE/NW are best because you can run into other nym camps.


So far the best I had as 20max motor's.

Which resulsted in 3 VK's made at 164-2.1 162-2.5 163-2.3

The name is High Velocity Vibro Motor for powerup.
High Velocity Freqencu Motor for wound.


One of the problems is people are so used to not looting mobs many of these fine motors rot.
So try doing the /auction wtb high frequency parts
and you might get lucky.

smiths make the advanced cores, but need super rare resources, im not entirly sure what resources guess it depends.

Also somone said somthing about Rancor Teeth acting like krayt tissue vibros. in short rancor teath add like a 51% dmg increase to min and max.

now first off i dont knwo if this is true, second i dont know if rancors drop rancor teeth. It could very well be misinformation, but then again, if this was confirmed then perhaps that would help too.

Very nice thread, and very helpful. Would be nice to have one like this that also lists what components/resources are known to be available that our class can collect and give to weaponsmith to have made, such as teaming up and harvesting known rare resources. We all benefit from the information....such as, one person who used Vibro motor, type of resource used to make and subsequent damage/speed..one thing that eludes me, however, is thefrequency and randomness of slices. I had 6 Vibro Knucklers made with 4 vibro motor Damage +20 and '2' Vibro Motor Speed -.2. ALL of them sliced for SPEED, NONE for damage..anyone know why that is? If it's so random, anyone have any ideas as to why ALL of them sliced for speed? Am I just that unlucky?

Also, I heard that the Class 2 Solid Petro Fuel is extremely rare....is this true?

You were just unlucky. It's a 50\50 deal with slicing. Is is possible to get speed 10 times in a row..sure.
