My previous VKs were 37-146 2.2 and I had a customer that asked if I could make some "good" ones.. We had just gotten a spawn of what I think is the highest UT desh (365 UT) on our server. So I said that I'd have some with a little better damage in a few days. Wellthe new onescame out 37-148 2.2 and that still wasn't "good" enough. ..lol






What is the UT for your platinite copper?


With 367 UT desh and 761 UT platinite my motors went up by 1 pt max damage and -.01 speed, but my VKs did not jump to 148 from 147. I am using near perfect resources for final combine: 1000 sr iron (metal), 997 sr steel, 800 sr copper. Bah!


This question goes to the others getting 148 as well, what are your resource stats? Thank you.







Crap!! I have to appologize when i posted the stats this morning i was doing so from memory and got the numbers mixed up the actual stats on my VKs are 38-147 2.2 sorry I'll make sure not to post stats unless i'm sure of them in the future (kicks self)


I agree that the cap must be 147 max damage. I made some using 796 SR Copper, 993 SR Iron & 990 SR Steel. Per foomans max experimentation is 96.8% and got 147 max damage.


I tried again with the same copper and some 995 SR steel (that I only have a small amount of) Foomans max experimentation states 97.0% they came out the exact same damage speed (except for 0.1% higher wound chance). So I assume, since crafting rounds down to the closest whole number if I wasn't at the cap the 97.0% units would have been better, since the 96.8% units would have only yielded 96% experimentation.


BTW my vibro units are 25-38 -0.35 and they use 761 UT Platinite & 365 UT Desh. OQ on my class 3 is 818 but that shouldn't make a difference.


Sorry once again for posting the incorrect stats.






you will get the same result with 25-37 vibro units

I hear a LOT of people on Kettemoor talking about VK's they bought in crates a while ago that were 160+ max dmg..how is this possible? I have talked to and see plenty people talk about buying them..





Those were probably made with the no-serial exploit that now has been fixed.




There were crates and crates of these produced, I honestly doubt that that many Nym's/High Powered motors dropped w/ no serial and they got their hands on em?

My VK's are 50-166dmg 2.0spd +20/+20/+21 range and 45.5% wound.


Not enhanced. Not loot. Using the same stuff every other WS uses.


5 exceptionals on the Vibro Motors has given me some very nice vibro weapons.


I have made 20 of these so far. All 20 are sliced and their speeds have gone as low as 1.4 and damage as high as 212.

Soon as I get home I will post a pic in an unrestricted part of my site and I will do one for the motors.


Some weird fluke gave me 5 expectionals in a row on the motors. Very nice stats.

It appears you were able to experiment the motors to about 76% which is well beyond normal (obviously). If you can reproduce these results, it should be reported to the devs, otherwise I guess you are the beneficiary of an oddity which I know has happened onvery rare occasionsand apparently still does.

Indeed, I had a 5 exceptionals on it.


I have been unable to reproduce it though. I tried a few times but with no luck.

Bhozar,

Congrats on getting a killer schematic. Those Vibro Motors are worth a fortune.

2.2 and 146 sounds about right. I took my TKM to dantooine, joined a solo group, then went to Lok. After about 90 minutes of intense Nym killing, I had 16 High power vibro motors. Three of these were +25 to max damage and the rest were +20 to max. I was able to make some 2.2 171 Vk's.One was sliced to a Max damage of 222! I'm keeping that one for myself.
