hey, i think the vk is good if you get a good speed slice, right now mines at 1.6 speed round 150 dmg, w/power up it gets down to 1.2-1.4 speed depending. so thats 1500-2000 dmg every 1.2-1.6 seconds, i think thats pretty good... heh

At master the speed on your VK doesn't matter, you'll hit super fast either way. If you still want to use one at that point then get a high damage one. Frankly, though, I stopped using one when I hit master. It was very useful for leveling, but I haven't felt that I needed it anymore after I mastered TK.

I used to be all for VK's but after playing a while my opinion has changed a little. Using them solely depends what i'm killing. If target has armor and/or high resists then I use vk. I also use vk to tear down lairs and big mobs so i can save ham (debuff then equip vk and berserk). With 71% kinetic ubese I hardly ever bother to debuff enemies tho.

i got some 3.0 speed real low ham vks looted from a thug that i use anytime i'm not buffed and going up against armored creatures.


something like 90dmg, 11/20/11 HAM. not great damage, but keeps me from having a 50% reduction against armored mobs.

I fought a few FS guys last night and discovered that dizzy+knockdown no longer keeps them down. They get back up in a few seconds and start zapping me with force lightning! Hahahaha.

i dont use vk's at all since i hit master.


however, i do believe that when facing something big with medium armor and relatively high kinetic resists then the vk would be of use.

Personally I like to use both. On my TKM's account I will not use VK's for most things but the hard mobs such as FS ones I will no non VK until I knock it down then switch over to VKs for the added damage done. Even though it sucks up your HAM if they are knocked down or at least delayed you still have time to heal yourself up before they start to fight for you again.

I always use mine.. Got a bunch ranging from 198-207 that I use. I don't power em up as they degrade way too fast. But I would never use just my hands... madness. Same goes for all those TKM's that don't believe in armor.... *shakes head* Again.. madness!

I'd always suggest carrying some and using them as needed, especially in pvp on armored targets.


Whenever I'm going up against another TKA, I always laugh when its someone trying to damage me when I'm in armor and they have no VK's, its never much of a fight. TK's really need some sort of armor piercing aside from lame 50 ham VK's :/
