Disclaimer: The following is not a complaint, not a rant, and I'm not venting. If you reply like I am, it's your problem not mine This is an OBSERVATION, and my luck in a nutshell.

Okay, we all know that high end should mean awesome stats. I'm using the term here for things I do not see drop often for me, and of course they have goofy stats.

Example:

Gold Celestial sheild, (okay so far) +16 armor (awesome max protection) Requires 9 Strength (bonus, most sheilds I loot are tactics) and +10 armor vs Ogres..OGRES???? Are their even Ogres on Cantha??? I swear I will always loot desirable items with goofy stats.

What was your neatest, looted item, with goofy stats?

Yeti are considered to be Ogers

One chest I opened in the "closer to the Stars" mission got me a Celestial Staff of Water Magic with a req.7 in Fire Magic and gave a +1 Water Magic (19%). *scratches head*

And since we're talking about strange stuff about drops, I had a Sundering Celestial Hammer (I still have it). One day I get a gold hammer as a drop, I ID it to be a Hammer of Fortitude +30. Putting the Axe grip of Fortitude on the Celestial hammer would certainly raise it's value. From the Hammer of Fortitude I salvaged... 21 wood planks.

haha yeah i hate when that happens, but i guess its still cool to have the variety. Someone who enjoys destroying Yeti, or just farming them would love to have a sheild like that.
Just really makes it harder to sell more than anything else when you get items like that =/

I love the ones that are impossible, like req 10 Fire, + 20% recharge of Blood skills, + 20% casting time Restoration

I've had them!@#$

KiRi · Aug 10, 2006, 03:41 AM // 03:41

oh i agree, i can't stand those...I found a nice powerful low req firestaff yesterday and the mods on it were for a mesmer skill >_<~

Peachie · Aug 10, 2006, 03:42 AM // 03:42

i was using up a few keys i had lying about and only not one gold from about ten chests (usual for me...). Was an embossed aegis and the only stat on it was reduces deepwound, sigh. The purple shields I got were better.

Yep, I meant hammer. A simple typo from my sleepy brain.

And for the record, I'm a she not a he.

Titans are also considered Ogres because, like all Ogres, they have layers.
