37-147 2.2 +17 on all ranges


This is using 1000sr steel and 794 copper and AVBUs made with 352ut desh and 749ut platenite.

FYI I could hit the same dmg using 989sr steel and the same copper so I'm thinking there's a rounding factor on the decimalised parts of the stats that are not allowing me to hit 148 using my current steel.

yeah i think there is a cap unless you're using looted components, i got 147 as well, not 146 or 148. I used about 980 steel and about 500 cp. And got the same results as you guys.

38-147, 2.2s


I know a few people maximized the VK experimentation at 100% on the one-day change, and didn't improve the stats over what they could already make. I think any improvement is more likely to come from the AVBU than trying to eke a few more points out of your VK's copper.


Resources: 1000SR steel, 790SR copper in the VK. 366UT desh, 749UT platinite in the AVBU.

Same stats here. Though I think it really is a question of the fact that we are all hitting the cap. I am useing 977 duralloy and a polysteel copper its like 783 i think not sure. Keep hitting the same wall you guys are. I am guessing they just cannot get any better then that.


Talk to tka and ask them what the best base material vibroknuckler is, and they will read off those stats. I am thinking with these kind of stats you are just not going to round even one more point out.

they really need to make resources matter more. It really sucks everyone is making the same thing.

I think the resources matter, it's just that the resources necessary to make a super niceAdvanced Vibro Blade Unitshaven't showed up. Maybe there is a limit to the resource quality of certain minerals like people are saying. That would explain why people on several servers are hitting a similar limit.


On crafting day people were able to exceed 147, so that does imply that if we had better resources, we could makebetter VKs.

I did notice some kind of cap anomaly on one of my items recently Tortilla. I didn't think anything of it at all at the time, just thought that everyone knew about it as I'm still a new Master.


I'll try and replicate it tomorrow and see if I can let you know what happens. I'm pretty sure that I hit a certain Damage on the VK then when I experimented on it again the speed went down but the damage stayed the same.


I could also be talking complete bs of course, will have to investigate, speak to you soon,
