Spear skins, help please! - Guild Wars Forums

- Tain - · Nov 15, 2006, 05:37 AM // 05:37

SO, my ele uses a sword with +5 energy and 20% enchants (along with a 20/20 collectors focus, its the equivalent Rago's staff with 2 more energy). The only downside with that, as everyone knows, is you can't wand things... as if that's what an ele should be spending his time doing, anyway .

To the point. With NF I figured hell, why not do it with a spear. So I did... +5 energy, 20% enchants, and it's a ranged attack. The only issue I have is finding a nice spear skin to go with my ele. I'm picky, and that doesn't help. Stats are what matters, I know, but I didn't buy FoW 'cause it has better stats.

So far, the only spear skin I've really liked is Courage of the Forgotten, which is of course a green, and can't be modded to my liking... My question, is this skin also found on mod-able spears? Also, I'd love suggestions as to other nice skins that would look good on an ele.... Plain pointy sticks don't do it for me.

I remember seeing a neat looking spear during a Kormir cutscene, but I don't remember the name.

The spearhead looked thin and streamline, and the grip looked like the suntouched spear thing.

Currently, I'm using a +5, 20% Bronzehead Spear... it's alright but not quite right for me. I really want to know if Courage of the Forgotten is a spear skin that drops, or something similar.

Jeff Highwind · Nov 15, 2006, 07:30 AM // 07:30

All the endgame greens are 15^50 from what I hear. The spear skins though I've yet to see drop at all, but Torment might hold it.

- Tain - · Nov 15, 2006, 07:35 AM // 07:35

First of all, they are'nt all 15^50... 2 of the 3 endgame spears are +5 energy. But that is completely besides the point. I'm only looking for mod-able spears, with nice skins. That means not any kind of green...

I need a nice skinned spear, I love the skin on Courage, and want to know if that skin drops.

All spears look the same to me... same with daggers. If I ever make a paragon or Assassassassassin I'll just stick to collectors/green.

Try a Suntouched Spear or Spiraling Spear..

eh, at this point, not many people know which spears are going to be the rarest

- Tain - · Nov 15, 2006, 01:40 PM // 13:40

When did I mention rarity? I just want an appearance not a 1337 super-rare one.
My question is if the skin exists as a drop, not how rare it is.

Griffonclaw · Nov 23, 2006, 12:03 PM // 12:03

Sorry to have to break it to you, but I think all the endgame skins are unique to the greens

. All the warrior weapons, dervish scythes etc are not skins found in the game so I assume neither are the spears

Gonzo · Nov 23, 2006, 12:11 PM // 12:11

There's an endgame +5 e furious/fortitude spear, however if you have the pre-order items just use that spear, it's +5e

Moa Bird Cultist · Nov 23, 2006, 01:34 PM // 13:34

My favourite has to be this one - common as muck, but easily the best looking, imo.

never got one of those as a drop before

Crellenated, Clouded are nice as well.

I say this because the skins that people like more will sell for more. Compare a perfect pre-NF fellblade and a perfect wingblade, which is going to sell for more?
You need to learn to chill.
