The game must be tweaked to NOT give you things related to your Primary profession. I always get Hammers, Earth wands, and other crap I don't need.

I have seen warrior friends immediately open a chest after me, and they get Necro stuff (we traded)

Hopefully you are with friends or a good guild and everyone swaps things around after opening a chest.

Of course, I am discounting the possibility of a super-valuable item. No one would expect someone to give those away.

FoW chest drop:

RoF chest drop:

so don't give up...just dont' expect much and be pleasently surprised when something decent pops out

As for swapping...play with RL friends or guildies you've know for a long while...one of my friends has my Rago's Staff...only 70k ish but it's more about fitting his build then being valuable...though if I had a crystalline it'd go and I'd just buy him another perfect sword.

After that I got this one. ( Shield 2)

ps. Anyone know what these are worth???

only what a merchant will pay sorry...

that scroll with the perfect 20%...probably not much...there are greens with double mods and it's earth(not the most popular) but it is gold...maybe 3-5k

Maybe Ranger Rog is onto something.

Forgot to say that it may be that the Earth item value is strangely higher than others too. Long shot but who knows.

Cheers for the info. 452 gold is the highest merchant price ive had from anything. but to be on a darn earth wand that doesn't seem that good to me. huh?!?!?

Cheers, I thought 10% was max on that. (I'm guessing this is still worth nothing more than the merchant would give)
