What doesn't drop Inscribable? - Guild Wars Forums

Naga Slicer · Jan 23, 2008, 04:55 AM // 04:55

I'm pretty sure that not all weapons skins can drop inscribable(ex. Plagueborn Weapons). I'm just wondering which others don't. If anyone would like to help me out, i'm sure it would help others too!

To my knowledge the only inscirbable weapons can be obtained from Nightfall, Hall of Heroes in PvP, Urgoz Warren (Elite Kurzick area), and the Deep (Elite luxon area). So your example of Plagueborn wouldn't be inscribable beacuase it would never be obtained in those places.

Kyrein · Jan 23, 2008, 05:01 AM // 05:01

inscribable weapons are also obtained in EOTN

I Might Avenge U · Jan 23, 2008, 05:03 AM // 05:03

Pretty much anything dropped in Tyria & Cantha (excluding The Deep & Urgoz Warden)

I'm pretty sure the Zaishen Chest drops almost anything inscribable

MirkoTeran · Jan 23, 2008, 07:47 AM // 07:47

Zaishen, FoW, UW, Urgoz, Deep (and HoH?) chests drop just about any item in game inscribeable.

Naga Slicer · Jan 23, 2008, 11:36 PM // 23:36

So an outcast shield as example could drop inscribable from the Z chest or faction elite mission chest as inscribable?

HawkofStorms · Jan 24, 2008, 12:59 AM // 00:59

Yes. Although certain stuff drops more frequently in the elite missions (zodiac weapons, etc) and some are even exclusive to them (pronged fans). So basically, almost everything is now inscribable, although the odds of finding inscribable req 9s for certain skills are still pretty low.

isamu kurosawa · Jan 24, 2008, 01:01 AM // 01:01

All i can think of off the top of my head is the IDS as the zaishen chest doesn't drop special weapons such as that or tormented items.

Naga Slicer · Jan 25, 2008, 12:13 AM // 00:13

I heard that they stopped the drops of certain weapons from the Z-Chest. I don't know why they would do that but who knows? Perhaps they haven't, anyone know for sure?

Urban legend Naga.

Moloch Vein · May 03, 2008, 07:18 PM // 19:18

Zodiac staves and scepters that are not of a primary attribute requirement (or Inspiration).

ShadowsRequiem · May 03, 2008, 07:20 PM // 19:20

havent seen any inscript echovalds, gothic defenders, outcast or amber aegis.

kev read · May 03, 2008, 07:59 PM // 19:59

Just wondering, I have gotten some drops from Nightfall that are uninscribable... They WERE white, or blue without an inscription. Is it true that an item can only be inscribable if it was dropped with an inscription (in nightfall, EotN, Urgoz, Deep, etc)?

Kale Ironfist · May 04, 2008, 12:16 AM // 00:16

Yes, the item must already have an inscription slot.

wilderness · May 04, 2008, 04:35 AM // 04:35

Off the top of my head:

Shields: Gothic Defender, Amber Aegis, Ornate Shield, Echovald Shield, Outcast Shield, Plagueborn Shield, Spiked Targe.

Swords: Dusk Blade, Wicked Blade, Plagueborn Sword, Broadsword.

Axe: Plagueborn Axe, Grinning Dragon Axe, Jade Axe, Mammoth Axe, Morning Star Axe, Runic Axe.

Hammer: Jade Hammer, Plagueborn Hammer.

All I can think of for now.

I might be wrong about a couple there, but there are certainly a large amount of Factions skins that don't come in an inscription flavour.

Sir Chunkalot · May 04, 2008, 04:48 AM // 04:48

tribal blades, rusty axes, hatchets, amber aegis, swamp clubs dont drop inscribed. not 100% sure on the amber aegis though

wilderness · May 04, 2008, 04:50 AM // 04:50

Amber Aegis does NOT drop inscription 100% for sure.

Up until now, at least...
