Maybe Anet favors the people who don't spend their every waking moment farming The deep.

Alka · Sep 03, 2007, 01:08 PM // 13:08

i acquired those in august2007:
1.) q8motivation inscribable blue shield,while i was farming stygian for lb pts
2.) q8 inscribable blue earth scroll,while i was farming lb/ss in wurm
3.) bought heal ankh req 8 gold inscribable for 10k
4.) bought req 8tact. shield,+27hp,unmodable for1k
5.)bought req9 tact shield with +10al vs blunt,-5physical20%chance for 3k <i mention this because its 2x dmg reduction and ppl say they dont drop anymore
sorry i did not make scrennies when i got those next time i will now they sit in my inventory beside those req 7whites/blues, i started to collect those since they nerfed hassin shell and pepermint/gingerbread shields which pissed me off VERY VERY much,pm me if you wanna see my collection of req 7&8(got~10 different of those stuff)
how i get those low req items?
answer is simple:WHENEVER something with req 7 (colour does not matter)drops or someone told wts anything alike i ALWAYS CHECK if its max and/or check for price
and same with req 8 but i dont count whites
low req just trigger my inner collector hunger

Since.... WE NEED SCREENSHOTS!

Was farming plagueborn flesh for the collector offhand for my monk last saturday and got this... thought i merchanted it already, but just found on one of my mules....

A 14 yr old alliance member sold me this shield on the 18th, he had it unidented, and told him to ident it then i would buy it, was going to buy it either way, but was going to pay more if it had better stats.... he is 14 and never had much ingame money, he got it in naphu or whatever its called, knew i collected req 7s, and pmed about 1 hr after he got it... pretty sure he wasnt lying about it and sitting on it for a yr or so....

now im gonna guess that u wanted to see them unidented first, then idented, or perhaps on the ground with the persons name attached.... well anyway, spent more time on this topic then i really wanted too....

wilderness · Sep 04, 2007, 03:38 PM // 15:38

Max, Alka... my request wasn't difficult to understand:

SS of q8 inherent (NO INSCRIPTION) gold item as it has dropped, with your HUD showing a recent skill bar or your char holding a recent skin/armour set that proves it's current.

What you've provided here isn't even close to evidence, sorry. I do appreciate your effort, though.

Still searching . . .

Awesome, so R7's are still out there..... Wow, going to farm some more in Cantha then

6am3 Fana71c · Sep 05, 2007, 10:06 PM // 22:06

Sorry for off-topic, but...
Is there any section of auction in Guru specialy for selling Req 8? I have req 8 Spatha, not inscriptable, that I wish to sell.

Faer · Sep 05, 2007, 10:30 PM // 22:30

z0mgz Req.8 z0mgz

Am I in the Cool Kids Club yet?

Nemo the Capitalist · Sep 05, 2007, 10:39 PM // 22:39

i hate my life no r 8's

Faer · Sep 06, 2007, 07:45 AM // 07:45

This one better get me into the Cool Kids Club.

Didn't snap a screenshot of the thing, you know, actually on the ground during the mission. I was too busy Monking and whatnot. So, sorry if you actually needed to see the item freshly dropped, because it's a bit late for that now (but if you can't trust me, who can you trust?

) Looted my crap and kept on truckin', you know the drill. However, once I identified it and actually looked at it... Well, I certainly wasn't expecting it, that's for sure. Especially not so soon after reading this thread.

You can tell it's a recent shot by the Glacial Blade and stuff in my inventory. That's only been around for what, two, three weeks? Well anyhoo... I guess Req. 8 weapons still do drop in Tyria. Don't know about Cantha, and can't be bothered looking around for them (too busy trying to l2p again after spending a month on WoW with minimal GW contact). Maybe somebody will find one there though. Who knows?

Still deciding if I want to use it, or sell it. Somebody has already shown interest, but eh, I dunno. It's a nice bow, and my heroes are sort of lacking in the weapons department.

Yawgmoth · Sep 06, 2007, 10:12 AM // 10:12

Fake, sir! Bad choice for faking a bow when req8 max bows don't drop at all since NF release.
A whole bunch of fakes here. There's no way that r7 celestial shield could have dropped recently aswell. That guy just had kept it unident since before NF.

However req8 max swords, shields and foci (axe too but extreme low chance like one in a million) should still drop in Tyria/Cantha but simply nobody farms the old farming areas on normal mode...

"That guy" Happens to be moderator. And how do you know that Req.8's don't drop after Nf release? Most stupid thing I've heard today, and I'm in school atm so that's much.

The fresh Ectoplasms in my storage seem to sing a different tune. Everyone is free to believe what they want to believe, so if you want to believe it's a fake, go right ahead. What's it to me? I came, I farmed, I sold for profit. No need to involve myself any further than I already have. After all, it's just a video game.

wilderness · Sep 06, 2007, 12:50 PM // 12:50

Faer, what proves this SS is recent there?

I'm almost definitely overlooking something, just woke up ;p

Moderators have lied and even scammed (if you know what im talking about its very very unlikely it was a mistake *cough* SOA Axe being sold as HOD Axe *Cough*)but that isnt for this thread.

Malice Black · Sep 07, 2007, 12:14 AM // 00:14

Here is your proof.

http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...php?t=10195530

New shield skin, and req8.

Dear old Nef, what a nub.

Jeremy Untouchable · Sep 07, 2007, 12:40 AM // 00:40

req 8 is the new rare.....I'm still watching for one on the ground to SS

Glacial Blade is a bonus item from GW:EotN. I have a Glacial Blade in my inventory (a few slots over from the Dead Bow) in that screenshot, along with the bonus staff and bonus bow (though the bow is hidden by the tooltip of the Dead Bow, I believe). This proves that the screenshot was taken no earlier than a week or two ago. It doesn't necessarily prove that the Dead Bow itself is new, but those skins and the drop log portion of the chat are all you could really go by, looking at the screenshot itself. I've already pawned the thing off for quick cash (level 9 IWAY Warrior needs Obsidian Armor more than my Heroes need bows

), so at this point, it's all a matter of what the reader wants to believe.

Some will call it a fake, some will call it real... I call it luck and ecto. And maybe a bit of "Ohai Faer welcum back 2 GW hurz a drop 4 u".

thanks for the ip check^^

and, he wants non-inscribable items malice

wilderness · Sep 07, 2007, 03:13 AM // 03:13

Still not proof, I'm afraid...

I want a picture of the item as it fell on the floor with the cursor over it saying q8 whatever as it lies unident in the instance it's just dropped in... maybe even with the corpse of the monster that dropped the item right beside it?

I don't mean to call your efforts worthless, but you must understand why I can't accept the above?

Ty very much, though.

And yes, Malice, inherents only please.

Still looking for absolute proof if possible

onerabbit · Sep 10, 2007, 12:19 PM // 12:19
