I think my weirdest drop was a req. 8 fire magic, 20% HSR Healing, 20% HCT Domination with a wrapping of +1 curses (20%) (and of course some other mod that wasn't at all good, so that's the one it salvaged into).

Damn. Any good head-shrink would encourage you to top yourself because that is just the worst thing ever.

The general rule is that 99.99% of high-end drops will suck.
Examples:
Req 8 Ironwing Bow. Only mod was +19% vs Dragons.
Req 8 str Zodiac Shield +7AL vs Earth Damage.
Req 8 Oni Blade 15% vs hexed foes.
Req 8 Zodiac Daggers. No damage mod, only +5 armor.
Req 8 str Eternal Shield +1 to Divine Favor (19%)
Must i go on?

Yeah, I found me some Gold daggers yesterday. Max damage, but +1 dagger mastery (19%) - COME ON!! Just round it up to 20%! I don't think I have ever had a perfect drop!

Personally, I like the "Staff Wrapping of Pruning" - Makes me laugh EVERY TIME! +X% Dmg vs Plants! Since neither me nor my brother had a staff wrapping of death magic for my new necro, I decided to go for pruning for a laugh - time to farm in Pongmei Valley methinks!!

Me too. I can't even give these things away. This thread has made me really laugh. I'm glad to know that I'm not the only one that gets these crazy drops. You know, with some of the stats, the devs must have been working some looonnng hours. I can only imagine them working late one night, howling with laughter as they come up with some of these weapons. "Hey, I got one! Let's make this perfect axe with Req. 13 Inspiration Magic. LOL!"*

*No, I haven't seen this. But the day will come!

I feel for you on that crystalline dude.

I've gotten my fair share of triple-attribute mods, especially with high-end skins, in such combinations as fast casting req 13, +1 to Divine Favor (20%) and 20% of faster recharge of Air Magic skills, things like that. I think those oddities debuted at Sorrow's Furnace, at least that's where I started seeing them drop.

At least you can try to salvage one of those perfect mods out of an axe... with a shield you cant do that

And yes, i find it weird that high-end chests can give such crap items... especially the ones where you have to pay 1.5k a key
