Shing Jea Monastery - Guild Wars Forums

Back in the time of factions, Shing Jea Monastery was a rather crowded place. Despite the merchanting paradise in Kaineng, I found Shing Jea well populated with players who like to communicate and trade. I had a relative easy time to sell some of my 'lower-level' gold weapons to beginner players.

However, when nightfall came out, the popularity of Shing Jea died away. It is now a place where everyone went about their own stuff with awkward dancers in district 1. I was wondering, is there any other place where I can sell some 'lower-level' stuff? In tyria, and elona? and what about Cantha?

In the main port cities, people rarely but anything rather than high-level Max stuff. Where can I find another place where I can sell some weapons to new players and beginner characters? I miss the old Shing Jea..

I think those days are gone.... You can try Ascalon...

Kamadan is pretty much a Kaineig city rather than a Shing Jea.

Your best bet is to go to the nearest outpost or mission after the town.
Prophecies - Sardelac Sanatarium, Piken Square, Fort Ranik
Factions - Tsumei Village, Ran Musei Garden
Nightfall - Sunspear Great Hall, Champions Dawn

By the time a new player has reached those places, he/she is aware of the need for a better weapon, but can't usually afford max damage stuff. Keep in mind that a big jump in damge, a hp boost, or spell recharge are wanted most.

The biggest problem you face is that the majority of new characters are created by experienced players who already have max weapons available.

(Hope I spelled everything correctly.)
