Req. 7 Gold Item question - Guild Wars Forums

Marshal Shinzi · Jan 21, 2009, 03:45 AM // 03:45

Hello, I'm very curious on if you can even get req. 7 gold items still or not. I've seen very very few post selling perfect req. 7 items on auctions and what not. I've never had one drop ever doing chest runs etc. We're they an item that they got rid of along time ago or are they just Ultra Rare? I think I've seen maybe 3 req. 7 golds selling vs. 100's of req. 8 golds items. Does anyone have an answer for me, I'd like to understand.

I'm Pretty sure that they are just very very very very very very very rare.

Hope this answers your question that they do exist. This picture was taken roughly ~5 months ago. Aas for the 10:10 sundering mod, I have no idea how he got it. I was under the impression that 10:10 was completely removed and replaced with 20:20 (mostly I was under this impression because I didn't really care too much for sundering as it's a complete waste of a prefix :P).

Existing 10/10 Sundering(or less) were not replaced. They were just removed from all future drops.

Gaile asked the developer responsible for item creation, drop code, or whatever you want to call it whether req 7 items are still possible, and her answer was "yes," but the chance was extremely rare. No details on where or how they can be obtained.

Ah okay, thank you guys for answering my question, I guess a true perfect weapon is a req. 7 one rather then 8

Yeah so in 2005-2006 r7 drop used be "rare drop" like r8 is now, then they we're removed and now r8 is "rare" drop, strange that i havent got single max r8 since nf came.

never had a req7 drop but know some people that have. i have always wondered where they drop? (req8) ive tried MANY times lol to find that "place" where they may drop but no luck.

i guess ive always thought the "tweener" areas would be best. like the area between max non max critters. maybe the vermin or the areas in the undercity? i dont know. all i know is i spend oodles of time farmin and have only got a handful of 8's . maybe 3-4.

PS 3-4 8's since 05 isnt a good tell lmao.

It's been a while since this question popped up again.
As far as I know there have been no confirmed max R7 drops for a long time now.
Do they still drop? No-one knows till it's confirmed that they do or don't.
But if they still exist they can be considered very, very, very rare drops.

req 10:10 still drops. MAGMA Jungle. I got a req 6 Gold fellblade with 10:10 on it. It is uninscribable and the damage is 11-16. But it is gold and worthless.
