Most memorable for me has to be my first gold drop.

Playing with my first char, ranger, in D'Lessio Seaboard mission. It was a req.8 15-27dmg longbow, damage mod vs hexed(can't remember value) of Deathbane +19%. I didn't care it wasn't max damage I just enjoyed using it to destroy all the undead that crossed my path in Kryta.

It was the right drop in the right place.

I kept hold of that bow for so long I was using it in my first Barrage Pet run in Tombs, even with the useless mods for what I was doing.

when I got a 15>50 serpent axe from the old halls chest.

Acehigh · Jul 12, 2007, 02:01 PM // 14:01

Mine would have to be when Sorrows furnace had just came out.I did a run outside in Grenths Footprint and ended up getting a Flint's Artifact-.-
Its The fact it was sooo bad for a first green,i still remember it now.

When Nightfall was fairly new I got a gold, req 9 Sephis Axe from a chest in the Desolation. I foolishly sold it for 40k not realising it was actually worth around 400k. I still get annoyed when I see the screenshot I took of it.

My best was back in September 05, I was in the Fissure of Woe running around doing quests with guild mates, (yes we actually did quests back then lol, it was all new

) It was one of the first golds that ever dropped for my ranger.

It was a Gold, Req 8, 15% while above 50% Health, 15-28 Shadow bow with 10/10 sundering! (back then 10/10 was max for sundering lol) I quickly put a +30hp mod on it, and upgraded to 20/20 when the change happened. I've been using it ever since

I know I'll never sell it, yet I'll never customise it either, don't know why lol

Great Scoot · Jul 12, 2007, 03:19 PM // 15:19

Req. 8 15^50 Murssat Hornbow hp +30 20/20
it dropped for my brother of which he gave to me.

I got a same perfect Giant Slayers Hammer req 8 15^50 hp+30 20/20
got that, not modded like that, fighting to dreadnaughts drift back before factions came out.

like 6 Sup vigors, which i have like 3 right now and held onto then, but they have been cut in half.

i have over 200 ectos again they have been cut in half.

I have ID'd a lot of golds but my problem is that I have no clue if something is worth a lot of gold or not. I just sell all my gold to the merchant. I could have sold something that was really worth a lot and I would never know it.

I think my most memorable would have to say my first Ecto. I only have 4 and have gotten them all by my self

They are just sitting in my storage doing nothing at all.

I am also always please to see a green drop. But I have to say that when I finally completed my Legendary Skill Hunter Title I thought back and realized that out of all the countless bosses I had killed to get their Elite Skill that NONE of them ever dropped their green for me. The only way I ever got a green was by actively farming the boss over and over until it gave it up.

ducktape · Jul 12, 2007, 05:57 PM // 17:57

Got my first "expensive" drop ever the week before the dragon festival this year: superior vigor rune. Sold it for 10k and used the 10k to buy more festival tickets. It was nice that I was looking for money to buy tickets with and while doing that I finally got a drop worth a decent amount of money and I didn't even have to stand around for hours trying to sell it. Bonus.

Zamochit · Jul 12, 2007, 06:20 PM // 18:20

My most memorable drops actually came together, I was solo farming the beach and cave with my warrior and a dryder droped a req 8 chaos axe which ID as 15^50 cruel +29hp. I opened a chest halfway through the cave on the same run and got a shadow sheild req 9 -3 hex +30...Best run Ive ever had, 3 shards too

(back when they were worth having)

dragonofinfinity · Jul 12, 2007, 06:21 PM // 18:21

Modti's Depravation, the best curse necro staff, found with my main character (R/Mo) the day after i created a curse necro. it was also my first green.

The Missing Monk · Jul 12, 2007, 06:31 PM // 18:31

My 2 most memorable drops, and probaly my most valueable ones:

Q10 Dead sword out of a ancient elonian chest when NF just came out, sold that for 100k +12E (when ecto's were about 7k)

and my Q9 Strenght Inscribable Magmas Shield, that even got me halfway getting my first set of FoW (which I have now ^^)

The Missing Monk · Jul 12, 2007, 06:34 PM // 18:34

Can't Believe I forgot my other valuable drop :|

req 11 Colossal Scimitar, which I modded to a casters weapon, my guild just found out the run, so everyone had one within a week, mine however, I can't remember how many runs ive done but believe me, it was A LOT! when it finally dropped, I was kind of in shock

p.s: sorry for the 2nd post, but GWG wouldn't let me edit my other post :S

Jhadur · Jul 12, 2007, 07:05 PM // 19:05

My most memorable would prob be today when I got a req 11 Elemental Sword whilst LB point farming in Sulphorous Wastes.

Had req 9 Dead Sword when the farm was new that I sold for 100k+40e
Req 9 Colossal that went for 100k +25e

R A N D O M · Jul 12, 2007, 07:50 PM // 19:50

the 10-14 gold sunqua blade-with a perf sundering mod on it
and the perfect req 9 obsidian earth staff that dropped in realm of torment-still got that one

also remember my best uw run-3 ectos black dye and 2 gold axes

King's Spectre · Jul 12, 2007, 07:51 PM // 19:51

Lol this thread to sooo D2.

I don't get real pumped about drops in GW, so I really had to think. Prolly the first Sup Absorb when they were near 100k or the first IDS on windersday 2005.

Juki · Jul 12, 2007, 08:32 PM // 20:32

Hmm I'm not so lucky but I had to take screenshot when one boss dropped 1*white + UW+FoW Scrolls + Rare Req.9 Earth Scroll for me...

I have had some greens with henchmen while exploring (bonus).

And once black dye dropped in UW in first stairs while fighting Aataxes. Bonus in this was that I was able to get it before our crappy PUG died

nunix · Jul 12, 2007, 09:48 PM // 21:48

I was exploring Mineral Springs for the first time when the Icy Dragon Swords began to drop; was kickin' around with henchmen, snagged a perfect one, still have it in storage somewhere.

Went to cap Avatar of Grenth my first time through Nightfall; boss dropped Grenth's Grasp as well, used that to beat the crap out of many a Morganite and daemond through the rest of the campaign.

pnumm · Jul 12, 2007, 09:50 PM // 21:50

My Elemental Sword no doubt

Burning Blade · Jul 12, 2007, 10:37 PM // 22:37

-1st: req8 15^50 storm bow. IT was long time ago before Factions. It dropped from a chest in Tomb that quickly earned me over 600K. I was a very poor guy who never had more than 10K so you should know how happy and shocked I was.
-2nd: Req8 Chaos axe req8 15^50. It dropped from a chest near Wailing Lord in FOW. 100K+25e was how much I got from the axe when ectoes were still like 8-9K each
-3rd: req9 inscribable Magmas Shield which dropped from a Earth titan in Domain of Fear. The shield earned me 100K+100e which was the most valuable item I have found
