There's no such thing as a retarded question, just a retarded answer. No, you cannot add krayt tissue to a vibroknuckler, it goes in balster power handlers which are components of blaster style ranged weapons.

??? No such thing as a retarded question, only a retarded answer?

I beg to differ. I could easily think of *MANY* retarded questions.

BTW: DarthXanthic, your question wasn't retarded, it was valid, probably saved you some headache in-game, and potential embarassment in-game ("Hey, weaponsmith! I got a krayt tissue! Make me a krayt VK!" "Sorry dude, those don't go into there!")

BTW: Nightsister Blade Vibro Units are what you seek. Or other blade vibro unit enhancements.

Yeah I have a few of those for the upcoming knuckler; this question was just wishful thinking on my part mostly.


Thanks for the responses.

You know I do not know why people never think attachment. Especially on low level weapons. A knuckler at most will go for three K and if you look around you can get it for less. A slice two k. A attachment adding another batch of damage on that, and you can make your goal. Knucklers tend to wear out easily anyway. Buy some good knucklers have some melee upgrade attachments made in crate, and apply as needed.


Attachments on expensive high end weapons maybe not a good idea. Attachments on weapons that you burn through anyway a good idea. Attachments can be useful so why not use them. If the damage range is for pvp anyway then haveing a few attachments handywould be a great idea. You take spice to up your attack power you use buffs to up your attack power you wear armor to up your attack power. Why not use attachments to up your attack power.


A attachment can decrease ham increase range mods increase min and max damage increase speed. These are a useful way to add flexibility to your weapons, and allow you to tailor your weapons to specific moments.

I use one now that lowers ham costs; I haven't been able to find any lately that increase dmg though.

Not Krayt but you do have a couple of options.


1st is to hit a few Nym NPCs or Droidekka (sp) and loot them. They both have a chance to drop special Vibro Motors and other parts.


2nd is to hit up some Nightsisters (a much harder proposition) and not always as fruitfull.



The NS motors are a much better quality but are much harder to come by. Both of thes can be used in Vks to make a better module and I think the new version of the Vks need NS motors anyway.

No retarted questions, only retarted people


j/k, many people do not understand how krayt tissues and other enhancements work, so it's a verycommon question.


The Krayt tissue is an enhancement for the Advanced Blaster Power Handler. It goes in most pistol weapons, and most rifles.


Say, a Jawa ion requires 5 handlers. you would need six identical tissues to make one, because you would need to run 5 identical handlers (with tissue) in a factory. You lose 1 in making the schematic


The only enhancements for VKs come from the Vibro unit. Either an entire looted unit that's better than a MWS can craft,or one with some sort of vibro motor enhancement, like a nym motor.


There's a good FAQ at the top of this forum, I would encourage everyone to look at, as it lists enhancements and what they go in.

Like everyone else is saying, go kill nym's droikekas. You'll be looking for the high powered vibro motors. I've had sets of these that add +20 max dammage, and a set of +25 max dammage. I've heard of +30 max sets also, however. I've also looted a nice mind poison vk from these guys. I don't understand why more TKs don't head to lok.

yeah, its hard to get a great slice on them...but they are generally very cheap. on valcyn i sell crates of 5 for like 12k so they are pretty cheap. just gotta find a smuggler who will give you a group slice discount
