Nice story Yuko, and awesome collection. Very nice. Congrats on getting back and finding replacements for past items.

Ham Rock · Apr 14, 2016, 11:35 PM // 23:35

"Yuko Asakura: Origens" out now in theathers near you!

That is one hell of a story. After I met you yesterday I, naturally, dove deep into this thread, digging up your collection. And what a joy was that, so much "hot" stuff

. You acquired some amazing pieces over the course of time. I'm really glad I could sell you that replacement Bo Staff. I hope it can fill the void the original left.
Most amazing of this story is of course the Wayward. You pc'd and sold it in 2009 and now seven years later, it is back. Now with your name on it, never to be lost again. You started your story with it and ended with it. Amazing!

Max,

I'm really glad I could help with that amazing Shield Of The Wing. I think a shout out to my friend and our fellow guru, Ele Kid, is in place here. He is the one who told me about this shield and set the chain of events in motion. I'm really glad we could help!

Tooburns,

Man those shields are amazing. Nothing more need to be said.

Tooburns! WTF Such nice shield!

Max - congrats on the new shields.

Yuko - congrats on getting your first item back! How come I haven't seen you in game :c.

I'm not worthy :c

Yuko. This is why we do what we do. I sometimes refer to stories sung about around campfires by enthusiastic wide-eyed youngsters hearing the legends for the first time. Your story is the epitome of these campfire tales. It's not just about owning and preserving these items, it's the journey that gets us here and the people we meet along the way. I salute you.

Burns.... You made my eyes bleed. You're showing us all how it's done. I salute you too.

One of the advantages of having a network of friends who look out for each other is that from time to time I am PM'd about new developments by these friends who have located items for me. This week, it happened twice.

I logged in to afk in our guildhall three days ago, and within a minute, three of my guildies told me that there was a r12 -2-2 Aegis for sale in Kamadan.

But I want to specially thank Emma for locating the SoTW from one of her friend's contacts, putting me in contact and staying away from the proceedings until the shield was acquired. It has quickly become one of my favourite shields because -1/stance is SO DAMN rare.

Max

You are welcome for the -1/stance sotw Max, Glad I could help contribute to your fine collection

Yeah, I'm his guild leader, I showed Ele Kid/Koen the shield and got him to get a solid pricecheck for it, and luckily enough he knew you, who forwarded me to Max, Glad it was a happy ending for all parties :P

MaxBorken · Apr 15, 2016, 10:09 PM // 22:09

I love it when a plan comes together. Much back-slapping and glass-raising is in order for a job well done. Thanks again for sending it my way. It fits in my display cabinet very nicely. I had a free shelf for it.

Thought I´d put an update on here - picked up some (very) nice ones recently, can´t show all in pics here anymore - took quite a while to screen and edit these already :'/ Total collection is covering ~250 shields so far!

HUGE shoutout to all friends, guildies and any other sellers, who helped me get these pieces. In case you find any that would improve or expand my collection - let me know

So happy to see many of said friends posting their own collections, seeing them grow as well - all living from the exchange I like so much on here! Only problems occur when there are two collections covering an intersecting set that includes unique items. E.g. tooburns: that Defender... damn, I´d love to have such, but I see it in your collection and it fits perfectly in there... as well :P could you just make a copy for me? anyone?

Well considering my part here: my weps - some of my personal favorites as perf stat items and ofc I spent those 10g/ea as well for a little extra - could someone please finally implement the +20%arm custo for shields...?

(Oh I sneaked in a shield here already - couldn´t find any category worth containing it...)

And the shields - tried to put them in categories, some sets that are close to getting completed - put those in order already

Hope you like them!

The +10 vs. <creature> with DMG reduction

The +10 vs. <Dmg category> with DMG reduction

The +10 vs. <any> with Health mod

The +1/20 <attribute> with max second mod (HP or DMG reduction)
--- okay I made an exception on the 20% for the q8 one - hope you can forgive :> ---

The Standerd ones - DMG reduction with matching or unconditional HP mod

Thanks for helping

cheers, Red

Fantastic Red!

Such an impressive, dedicated collection is really something to see. You should put up some of the Lanterns you have left too though!

Love the Chaos Axe and Longsword too. : )

Surge goes pre · Apr 18, 2016, 04:02 PM // 16:02

Damn red. Nice stuff.

I'm incredibly jealous of that r9 scythe. So awesome.

Ham Rock · Apr 18, 2016, 04:16 PM // 16:16

Amazing collection Red. To think you have ~250 shields of the skin. That's just insane. I am only missing a picture of your Warrior's new look.....

Keep up the good work. Maybe next time we'll see all the shields you'll have by then, all 300, 350, 500, 1000...... or when ever you think it's enough.

Me too. That scythe is one of my favorite skins and Red has it uninscr...... but not any kind uninscr. No no no, of course it has to be r9 15^50..... I'm so incredibly jealous.

"Enogh to post" I suggest - for collection - there is 16 chars 65 invslots each, ~29hero off hand slots + the characters´ own off hand slot each, 9 Xunlai Panels 20 slots each available to me, that´d be 1700 items - now this would be the end of my collection latest

- then the replacing process would have to kick in^^

I do feel bad for those who are jealous, wish I could help you out :O yet I do love it just ever so much myself, I had to custo it. Only perf Mausoleum Scythe or Spear I have ever seen - it had to be mine

Pleikki · Apr 18, 2016, 06:04 PM // 18:04

I actually also have an OS 15^50 mausoleum scythe. But mine is q10 so you got me beat. I also have an OS 15% enchanted and 15% stance. I just keep them for myself to admire
