I am a Master Weaponsmith on Lowca and I am going to me making a new run of VK's and I thought I would ask the ones who use them what they want in a VK.
speed/damage (naturally I always max these)
Ham cost
Range mods
Condition
Thanks for participating in this little poll.

well, since vk's are usually inexpensive, condition doesnt mean much. I always carry around 2 or 3 spares 
Unarmed accuracy is pretty high, and even without experimenting i think you can get it good enough (around like +6-12?)
HAM cost is the major thing we need after speed/damage is maxed out. I hunt unbuffed a lot, and usually i end up using no VK at all, since the costs are so high. Low HAM vk's would be a much appreciated weapon 
if you have a smuggler to slice weapons for you, TKM's will usually want damage slices and low level tk's will want speed slices.

Personally I like HAM costs to be low. I always carry two sets with me. One for high damage (for when buffed) and my everyday set with low HAM costs (for everyday use).
My dream pair would be High damage low HAM cost

Personally I like having a vk with the lowest HAM cost possible while having a pretty good damage (around 200). Condition doesn't mean too much as long as it's at least 700 and range mods don't really matter to me as long as they aren't too horrible. I have a speed sliced vk that's 1.8 speed and around47 min-174 max damage that I use right now with +20 @ 0m +19 @ 3m and +19 @ 5m. I think the HAM cost is 18 health, 38 action, and 18 mind. I also have a damage sliced one with the same basic stats, but a little higher on min and max damage. I know it's not the best, but until I can afford a better one it's good enough for me.

Personly I prefer two types & normaly carry them both.
The first is a VK made purly for damage& then either Accuracy or HAM costs experimented on with any remaining points.
The second is a VK made for when I'm fighting unbuffed so have low HAM, the ones I have are normaly 24/36/24 in terms of HAM costs which works out quite low but then also allows for a renoble highdamage (I can't think what it is on them normaly, I only have a near broken damage sliced one at the moment) *makes note to go buy some more*
On my server those are the only two veriaties that most WS's stock & most TKsI know use both as I know many who prefer to fight unbuffed when possible.

The stomach empties in what... 45 minutes? so it takes a little over 20 minutes to get half empty, at which point you pop another brandy.

For my Vk'sI use pure low ham cost.
I have 3 vk's currently with a mind buff and 3 shots of brandy i get 0 costfor hit 3and spin 2.
I also use nym motors in all my VK's.
RealyI would say it is play style some like low ham, others damage, and speed is always nice for grinding TK.

you could also use ahrisa if you dont fill your stomach with other stuff. Its +430ish to Focus (so your specials cost less mind) 33 fill i think and usually around 45mins on my server. Very useful for zabraks with their low focus with my zabrak 2 brandy +2 ahrisa = no mind cost, so humans would need 2 brandy 1 ahrisa i'd guess
with my zabrak 2 brandy +2 ahrisa = no mind cost, so humans would need 2 brandy 1 ahrisa i'd guess
