About Focus Items Modifiers - Guild Wars Forums

According to this page on guildwiki http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Weapon_modifier

a gold focus item (a focus item is a caster's offhand) can come with a "+X armor while hexed" bonus. I seem to recall that originally it was max +7, later raised to +10, although I cannot remember with which update.

My question is: has anyone actually ever found a focus item with this kind of bonus (the +X while hexed)? If you say yes, I would love to see an actual screenshot, cause I've been looking everywhere (auctions, trading forums, ingame) and I haven't find even one up to now.

I had one the other day...a gold focus dropped for me in Naphui Quarter mission...i think Armor +9 (while hexed)...if I'd have known someone would have wanted proof I wouldn't have sold it to a merchant!

Max for + armour on offhands is 10. Or it is for shields at least.

Yep, they do exist. Here's one with armor +9 while hexed...I'm sure there's a +10 armor one out there somewhere as well.

Well you never really said that they didn't exist so you were never really wrong. Be nice to yourself
