Normal Blues or Unusual? - Guild Wars Forums

1druid1 · Nov 01, 2010, 06:51 PM // 18:51

Hi All

Going through one of my old old characters and found the following items on him, just thought they seemed a little unusual for the stats and that they are blue, are these still normal drops or pre nerf?

Cheers

Druid

Belongs under Price Check: http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/price-check-f39.html

Anyway, the only I know price of the Grim Cesta, which usually goes for around 5K.

They're not drops. Blue drops never have max stats. They are either quest rewards (like the -50hp cesta) or collector items.

@Milennin. I wasnt looking for a price check, not sure where you got that idea from?

@Dzjudz Yeah you are right, its been that long since I have done any quests I forgot about the rewards from them.

nothing special here, the -50 offhand is used to 55 farm and its a quest reward, the other two can be easily reproduced

The other two are regular collector items. I know that I just got the healing prayers one from the dessicated claw collector in the Crystal Desert.

Take em to a merch, youll find that the 2 blue ones (other then the -50 cesta) are worth 25g each. Or maybe its 125. Whatever, its a standard value.

As has been mentioned, two of them are collector items:

For the +15energy Healing Ankh

http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Healer_Silja

For the 20/20 Healing Ankh
http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Mourn_Drakespur
http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Radamon
http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Keotah

As was established the -50 Cesta is a quest reward from the Cities of Ascalon quest:

Now if it had been the pre-nerfed Healing variety, that would've been unusual.

Ailina · Nov 02, 2010, 10:44 AM // 10:44

Healing variety? I've never heard of that. Would you enlighten me please?

There was some discussion about it in a thread here:
http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/g...t10347983.html

The quest reward from the Cities of Ascalon used to give an offhand that required healing but seems it was deemed rather imbalanced and so was removed and replaced with the -50hp blood magic Cesta.
However just like other items that were removed but remained in the game (HoD sword) they now fetch quite a high price as they are no longer obtainable any other way.
