As I understand it, only Axkva Mindrops the NS motors. She islocated at the bottom of the NS stronghold. I have never tried to take her on but she is tougher than your average Elder.

With Nym enhancements and a fairly decent dmg slice, I made a 203 dmg VK for a friend. >200 VKs are very sweet and should be a bit rare.


Was nice to see one out of 4 come out with a dmg slice. The others went speed. Sold those on the bazaar for 6k easy. For me, they are not as good as with dmg slices, so didn;t sell them on my vendor.

You might want to grab a rifleman friend and go to Dath and find yourself a Nightsister motor. I don't remember the pre-slice stats but after a good damage slice the vk was in the 240' and was 1.7 or 1.8 speed. I seem to remember +56 to max damage but can't remember.






I think you are talking about these, +91 max damage NS units, 200 max pre slice. Out of 8, 2 crittedand 4 got speed slices , the best damage slice was 24% and this is the result.

go to LOK and fight nym's body guards and pirates they drop High Powered Vibro motors which are +20 dmg enhancements used in creating VK's so a 147 normal max dmg turns into a 167max dmg before any slicing is done... as long as th WS experimentation goes well.... so get eve a 25% dmg slice on a 167 VK and you get a nice 209 max dmg and that is a 25% slice i have seen worse and i have seen better hope this helps






I crafted a VK this morning with the High Powered vibro moter enhancement. It came out to 166max damage, 2.2speed unsliced. It was a +20max damage enhancement. Very nice, now I just have to figure out how much its worth so I can sell it.

If I had to guess, it was a top of the line, unenhanced one with a really good damage slice, I dont ever think Ive seen 13% damage slices before so the first option is your best bet.




I got a 13% damage slice the other day on a VK I made with a +20 enhancement. I was completely underwhelmed.

Holy she ite!!!


Best rough guess at the cost to purchase such an item?


Damn those Nym scumbags. They STILL haven't dropped ANY motors, high dmg or otherwise .


When I did the Nym theme park quest a few months ago, there were loads of his bodyguards running around the stronghold. When I was there to start looking for them to kill, not one, not a single one! **edit**'s up with that?


Damn you Nym and your scaredy cat BG's!!!!

There is another route to take in all this. Buy a crate of vk's from a weaponsmith and have a master smuggler slice a whole stack, keep the best for yourself. You should get a couple over 30. I offer discounts when people buy by the crate, you may be able to find a WS on your server who does as well. I've gotten damage as good as yours with a standard VK getting a 33% damage. I'm not discouraging your Nym hunt, this is just to get you thropugh the night so to speak. You could put the others on a bazaar yourself or give them to guildmates.

Best unsliced I've seen on FarStar is also 147 max dmg. At 194, it would seem that mine is also of this quality with a 32% dmg slice on it. I'm not saying mine is bad, far from it. It's the best I've seen with my own eyes, but I KNOW they can be better.


The thing that really grates me is the fact that when the new Razor VK's are released, all the wealthy, (by fair means or foul having read there is a NEW credit dupe doing the rounds now), will be the only ones likely to have them, either because they are part of a group of similarly wealthy players who keep the prices high and can afford to do so, or they are part of a big guild and have the players around them to assist in obtaining said product.


As a solo player, I have next to no chance of ever getting one of these. Hell, I can't even get my a$$ safely around on the 'vette, (even though LOTS of players have told me they have done these missions solo).


This is turning into a rant about unfair advantages now and I never intended for it to become that, so I'll stop.


Here's to finding that elusive Nym fellow with his damned vibro unit!!!!
