The Worst Luck - Guild Wars Forums

LacLaxGoalie · Mar 24, 2006, 02:39 PM // 14:39

I swear I have the worst luck, ive been playing Guild Wars for a long time now, and not once have I found a 'Perfect' weapon, or anything. If I did find one i doubt id know how to realize it. The most I've ever gotten of any one item is 9k. So im asking someone for a thorough description of prices- like if its dmg is 13-20 and req is 8 clean then what is it worth ? Im just not good with prices i guess^^ So can anyone help me ?

i was never really good with item prices till i started lurking the trade section of this website. i used to sell decent items to the merchant for 200gold heh

best advice to ya is just watch the trade chats for a while and you will pick it up before you realize it

Fully agree, frequent the trade forums here to gain experience with pricing items, (also price trends, particularly greens).

And please don???t sell max gold items to the trader for 200 gold, I???ll give you at least 300 gold for the good one???s

I think you are in the vast majority. Not many people find req 7 items with perfect stats. Thats why they sell for hundreds of thousands of gold. =P

if everyone found leet 15^50 fellblades/stormbows/chaos'/crystallines, then they wouldnt be worth so much.

i guess i get frustrated when i see these items selling on the forums.... actually i have a Gold Sword thats decent, but i USE it. Its not customized though^^

It's SO EASY to get swept up into the 'better item' part of the game. Thats why I think it was clever of ANet to include cheaper options and workarounds.

If I want perfect stats, I get collector weapons for cheap. If I want to look good, I buy undesirable items with rare skins and then just pose until I feel better. lol
