And, if you are like me, you got it the old way only days after the bottom drops out. I had three or four rare swords drop in NM about the time that the bottom dropped out of them due to the introduction of hardmode - one from doing a quest the other from chests. I also had a gold req9 elemental sword drop once, but it was one of the unusual ones with no inscription slot.

Ah well, my heroes appreciated the extremely rare weapon as they know I got it "the hard way" and I traded someone the elemental sword for a green I liked so they could pretend to have a "real" one.

Though, I do find my luck on 10-20k items to be better than what many people report (especially elite tomes), they just aren't insta-rich drops. That and I have been VERY lucky in my mini-pets, while none of the rare ones, with somewhere between 15-20 of them I only had two repeats (and they were both decent ones). Since I simply want to collect them, not sell them that is perfectly fine by me (though I still want a bone dragon dangit, just not bad enough to purchase one).

Or maybe the day you took a mini grawl, 15 zaishen keys, an armbrace, and 6 ectos from a friend- just a thought.

Nice luck turnaround? Nope- not for me xD

Yesterday I got my first superior vigor. Today I got a Q9 fiery blade axe O.o. Yay.

when was it supposed to have happened????? I'm the one who gets another diamond from the dungeon chest or a totally worthless green (not even worth what the diamond is)...and hidden treasures are always a few coins.
The only thing I get in abundance is dyes, get one just about every day I play, sometimes 2 ----got another black a few days ago.
(though when doing sf I have gotten greens with a full henchie party....another wroths holy rod and korvald dropped both his rod and focus for my nogru).

Last Thursday was a good day.

First of all out of 17 chests not a single lockpick broke (I'm used to 1 chest, 1 pick). Didn't get a single purple from any of them. Got a sup vigor, 4 major vigors, two junk shields, 1 with a +30 and 1 with -5 20%, I also got a sup rit tome.

Later on a crap gold focus dropped for me, turned out it had a forget me not 20% on it. Sold all that stuff, bought a req 11 elemental sword with 20/20 +30 on it for 22k (they were advertising it at 24). Salvaged mods, put on my own +5 20% and sold the others.

Of course nothing but normal tomes and crap purples have dropped out of locked chests for me since then.

The other night I was running Irontoe's Lair and had not only a gold axe with great mods, also had a shield drop with +30 health mod already on it. I never get decent drops lol.

The one time a few months after factions came out, I was doing Argoz's Warren, opened a chest, and got a 15^50 20% enchant zodiac sword. I never really payed attention to the GW economy and vanity items, so everyone told me themselves what it was worth.

Only worthwhile item I've gotten my entire GW life, but it's not so bad

I was about to gripe on another thread after getting 6 orange dye drops in a row.

But before I had a chance to:
