Good Trade or Bad Trade - Guild Wars Forums

Winnies Bro · Mar 11, 2010, 05:52 PM // 17:52

I just traded my Zealous Destroyer Sword of Swordsmanship for Vampiric Dragon Sword of Fortitude (gold), The Bison Cup (gold) and Bazzr's Wail( green).

I wasn't sure if this was a good or bad trade and I'm still not sure, but the guy who sold me them seemed to think it was.

I'll probably add more later, but this'll do for now.

So, good or bad trade?

Well other than the fact that a dragon sword is a perma mod and will always be vampiric, and the fact I do not know how much need you had for the other items.

bison cup and bazzr's wail are not worth much of anything.

now as for the sword to sword they are both about the same because the difference in value is made up for by the fortitude mod that is worth more.

apples and oranges really no worry.

Bison Cup = Worthless (But if you can use it, it's good)
Bazzr's Wail = Worthless (But if you can use it, it's good)

So the question is. Zealous Dsword vs FDS. I would say bad trade. Even tho FDS is one of my favo sword skins.

Why? You can mod the Dsword. And a perfect FDS can be bought for 10k if u search good.

he got a VDS not a FDS, so pretty much a equal trade, both worth about the same

fltrekker · Mar 11, 2010, 07:50 PM // 19:50

now take some dirt cheap onyx and diamonds some granite and 10k and go craft another destroyer sword... then you will have both :P u win cuz u can go craft another, whereas you cant craft the VDS,,

Lord Dagon · Mar 11, 2010, 08:03 PM // 20:03

id say a good trade. like the above poster said you can craft another d sowrd.. a VDS tho u get randomly from nick/buying from other people. so overall id say it was a preety decent trade( not much more then like 3k on either side lost so its not damadging either way ;p)

Oh haha ups! Yeh the trade is pretty much equal then ;D

It's down to whatever you like. If you like what you traded, then yes, if not then...shit for you.

I do hope you put the destroyer sword in the HoM first though.

Wasn't aware. Guess it's because I don't waste my time on pointless things. I expected to be able to add unique weapons of any king before the HoM was implemented, but then I found out only destroyer weapons. So I refuse to obtain any destroyer weapons.

AlsPals · Mar 11, 2010, 10:55 PM // 22:55

Was I the only person who wanted to put my collection of Ghostly Staves in HoM? Good trade BTW. You didnt lose out neither did your pal.

Winnies Bro · Mar 12, 2010, 04:09 PM // 16:09

Thanks again for the help!

fltrekker Destroyer Weapons are not dirt cheap to craft. I added up how much the materials costed, 28.850g for 1 sword. Also it's 5k not 10k.

I didn't put it in the HoM. I wasn't sure if I'd be able to take it out or trade it once it was put in there, and if I could take it out then it would have no effect for GW2.

Rocky Rockstar I say hello, I also say 'What are you on about?

When you put a weapon in your HoM the only thing that happens is that it becomes customized to the character who puts it in the HoM. So you can only use it on that character or its heroes. It is never physically put or stored in the HoM. It's a bit like putting miniatures in the HoM.

He's talking about the aforementioned customization that happens when you put a weapon in the HoM.
