I've been bidding on this piece of gear in the trade section without really knowing if it will really make a Uber VK.
Can someone explain to me in simple terms what sort of damage this will do when converted into a VK.
I really needthose numbers explained to me, I can't see what's great about the numbers.
Or am I wasting my money.
Current bid is 15 million.
NS Vibro Blade unit
Stats:
Min: 92 damage
Max: 63 damage
20 to wound
Speed: -0.454

Hold on to that motor til after the CB. The NS vibro motor is used in making Razor Knucklers(the item we had on TC for about a week but was too powerful to keep) So i'm sure they are tweaking the stats on the knuckler for the CB. so hold off til then or try to stockpile a bunch of them.

the min is higher then the max that has to be corrected, if u have bad luck they pull down the min to below the max if u have luck they switch around the stats, with that ns unit u'll get a 200base damage knuck if the WS is any good, i looted 11 of these and have 5 left for the blacksun knuck and got 3 times a 300damage knuck and 3 times a speed slice
anyhow u see it ur overpaying for this big time lol
Eh, you don't really have to get the stats switched, because the damage ranges on a Vibro Knuckler are so far apart, it would not make the min damage higher than the max

First off, a NS Vibro Motor takes place of a vibro unit. A normal vibro unit is 25 min damage with 38 max damage, a nym would enhance the max damage on a normal by about 20-30pts. If you can get the stats shifted to 63/92 then you are looking at about 201 max damage before slice. Not worth 15m in my opinion especially due to random slices.

well I do think that nice NS vibro units are worth quit a bit, but 15m is to much. I mean they are worth at least 5m each, just becasue they only drop off the NS queen, and only once per day! Now my opinion for the seller, is to sell yours as well and make it a 2 piece set, so one of those pikesman out there that wants to make a NS energy Lance which requires 2 ident units, they would be the ones to pay 10m for the set just to get one made, because it is the rarest weapon right now, with having to get both parts off the NS queen! And it also looks sweeeeeeeeeeeet!

I've had 214 sliced Nym motor VKs. So if you add 70 more points to that... 284 on a max slice then think of the damage you could do. 15 million to some people is nothing!

you guys should remember that our: Unarmed Dammage Skillmod +250 adds to the VK, so it aint as much dammage as it seems...
a 50-150 dammage vk is really 300-400, so adding 50 dammage to the weapon isnt as much as it seems, personally I found some NS vibro motors (3) and made VKs out of them, lucky enough all of them got a dammage slice and I was left with 3 300 dammage VKs, I ended up selling them when I found out I still didnt do any dammage in PVP (which is what i do).. when I want to do dammage i pull up my rifles!
