My guildmate got a Ruby today from an elemental in Old Ascalon. Talk about a rare drop.

Has anyone ever gotten Bricks of Mud? if so where and who dropped it?

Lasareth · Nov 24, 2005, 08:22 AM // 08:22

I'm not even sure that that's a crafting material. Or an item

Where did you hear of it?

Sol_Vie · Nov 24, 2005, 08:33 AM // 08:33

I haven't seen them dropped, but you can craft them from certain crafters... mainly in the desert I think. The one that's in Ascalon Foothills before Yak's Bend might craft them too.

And rubies aren't all that rare in my experience when it comes to elementals in Ascalon.

I do believe you can go to Grenth's Statue in Ascalon Foothills and craft them there at the crafter...He crafts some pretty weird things...

err isn't it called clay brick or something like that, ?

Clay Brick is crafted from 1 Brick of Mud and 1 Pile of Glittering Dust, cost 20 gold.

Now where do you get a Brick of Mud?

NekoZ · Nov 25, 2005, 12:43 AM // 00:43

Never heard of that.. but I once got a Saphire from smites (if that's rare), a montrous eye from Griffs outside of Rankor, and a Monstrous Claw from lightning drakes.

Racthoh · Nov 25, 2005, 01:26 AM // 01:26

In my quest to reveal as much as the map as possible, I have yet to find a material crafter that makes the Bricks of Mud. I need to look harder.

bigwig · Nov 25, 2005, 08:21 AM // 08:21

you can find crafters for bricks of clay at salt flats, deldrimor bowl, and ascalon foot hills. no idea where to get bricks of mud.

Sol_Vie · Nov 25, 2005, 08:24 AM // 08:24

You have to tell Gwen to tell her little snot nosed friends to go make mud pies and bring some back to you. Then you have to fight the children and hide their bodies. Then carry the mud over to Post and they'll turn into Bricks of Mud.

>_>

*cough*

heist23 · Nov 25, 2005, 08:29 AM // 08:29

heh..

i did find that crafter somewhere in Salt Flats, but i never bothered to find the crafter for the bricks...

hell, i don't even know what they're used for....

Damon Windwalker · Nov 25, 2005, 03:01 PM // 15:01

Wow - this is something that I've never heard of.

What, exactly, would one use Bricks of Mud or Clay to do? Build a house or something? Throw at other players? Smash open car windows to steal the stereos?

Tactical-Dillusions · Nov 25, 2005, 03:08 PM // 15:08

I too have never found the mud brick crafter. I am pretty sure he doesn't exist.
Maybe Anet doesn't want us stockpiling clay bricks for some reason? :/

Justin_GW · Nov 25, 2005, 03:42 PM // 15:42

There is a clay brick crafter in the ascalon foothills.

Dunno where to get a brick of mud though

BBoy_Manchild · Nov 25, 2005, 03:47 PM // 15:47

doesnt look like a clay brick to me, looks more like a pile of crap you buy at a novelty shop, peeps at anet enjoy shopping at spencer's gifts?

Xue Yi Liang · Nov 25, 2005, 04:03 PM // 16:03

well, Beluga Caviar and White Truffles look pretty disgusting, too.

Snowman · Nov 25, 2005, 04:12 PM // 16:12

LOL

I think it is farily safe to assume that that NO bricks of mud exist anywhere.

Im also fairly certain that there is no use for them currently.

Guildwars does have several strange objects like this... for example there is a rabbit in pre-searing, you can click on him.. but you cant tame him and he doesnt appear to do anything!

I suspect these odd things exist for one of the following reasons

a] They were originally supposed to have a use in the game but for whatever reasons were ommited from the game, usually time constraints, coding problems. they simply havnt removed the items because, well.. it gives people something wonder about

b] these are clues about possible missions that might happen in future updates, in a similar way that Juicy Junipers are required in certain missions, just as other materials are used in the Simon the Scrybe missions, or ice cubes in SF.

c] these are clues about future items that maybe introduced, or armour!.. if they are then they might even be clues about future proffesions.

I really cant think of any weapon or type of armour in any d&d style game so the chance of them being weapons items or armour is remote, so I would speculate they are for missions or quests.

Epinephrine · Nov 25, 2005, 04:58 PM // 16:58

Clay is used in forging of sword blades, for example.
