Not really surprised about the Undead, I already thought they'd drop in Proph as well. I am however surprised about the vs Plants Warlord. I thought that was factions exclusive. What I can say with absolute certainty is:

Factions:
Demons
Dragons
(Ogres: not completely sure)

Proph:
Dwarves
Charr
Tengu
Giants
Skeletons
Trolls

So I guess Plants is Factions+Proph, and then I guess Undead is proph + FoW/UW. I wonder how they implemented that and with what reasons they did. I'd pay my ass off for a +10vDemons +45ench Magmas, Gloom or Warlord.

Yea that would be sick. I was looking forward to the shadow shields but you can't always get what you want. ^.^

I know these were a possible drop at one point just curious if one was ever produced and they are q8 +5e sephis axe also q8 +5e DeadBow? In theory these should have been entirely possible although with the release of factions not much tyrian farming was happening and it was the release of factions that added the +5e.

Hmmm, i know youll probably disgregard this without proof, but i used to own a Req9 inscr Purple Crysta. I bought it for 80e back when Ascalon ID1 was still the rage. Not to sure of source of the drop, but im PRETTY sure it was during the preview weekend, if im correct? I do regret selling that beauty, as do i regret selling anything of value all those years ago

Might be the same one your on about. I did have a picture of it on my old computer, but that died, along with 700 other pictures of glorious Guild Wars memorys.

EDIT: Also, as far to my knowledge, that is the only one that has dropped, although im not 100%. Its the only one i know of anyway.

I know of several purple inscriptable crystallines, they dropped during the sneak peak preview of eotn. I can look on my old computer for screenshots.

Gloom Shield was a shield that was added later on in the game if im correct? Pretty sure it was added after Factions.

.... nearly forgot about that lol

I've got a couple questions

1. Do fellblades drop anywhere in low level areas as to where the blade could have requirments less that 7?
EDIT: thanks for the searching on the fellblades=] this question arose to me because I have heard of afflicted dropping them and since afflicted definately occur at lower levels....you get the idea(I have never personally seen an afflicted drop a fellblade, ony heard as a rumor).

2. Do Jitte drop in purple? I' recall getting white ones and gold, but I've never seen a grape one.

EDIT: thanks for the help on these questions! for now my curiosity is sated=]

superraptors · Feb 18, 2012, 06:49 AM // 06:49

jittes can drop as purples from chests, so i am assuming it does also for creatures but i don't pay much attention to it.

Kiki Go Boom · Feb 18, 2012, 06:49 AM // 06:49

Purple jitte exists. I've had quite a few drop while chest running naga

edit: ninja'd

AlexaCocopuffs · Feb 22, 2012, 04:41 AM // 04:41

I've had fellblades drop from the chests around Jade Brotherhood in Wajjun Bazaar. Whether or not this is possible to go below req 7 you have to ask Yawg, because he knows this stuff better than me

Someone lately tried convincing me he had a shield with 2 hp mods, though he couldnt show it because he was in DoA (which he was).
I was absolutely sure i've at least never seen this and therefore convinced one wouldnt exist.

could someone confirm they do NOT exist?

It's awfully hard to confirm something does NOT exist. Offer the guy 100k just to show it in trade the next time he's on a break from DoA. (Not 100k to buy it, just 100k tip to show it to you in the trade window.) If you don't want to, I'll offer mine. Show me a shield with more than one +health mod in the trade window, and I'll give you a 100k for your trouble.

I don't think such a thing is possible because I've never seen a shield like that drop for me or offered for sale (at least, not with any convincing proof that it wasn't simply a case of someone auctioning something that did not exist) and because of what I've read Yawg post over the years.

I saw Yawg post this on a Q/A thread in June 2010 and saved a link.

Dual reduction shields (-2 in stance and another -dmg mod) stopped dropping shortly before or at the moment of Factions release. Since then inherent shields can drop with any 2 mods that come from different mod groups. There are 5 mod groups for shields:
+Health mods,
+Armor mods,
-Dmg reduction mods,
-Condition reduction mods,
+1 Attribute mods.

Before that update, the -2 (while in stance) mod was treated as a separate 6th mod group so it could appear together with any mod from any group including the other reduction mods.

I remember seeing his posts insisting that a triple mod mauso shield could not possibly have dropped with two hp mods because the game has some additional safety code that disallows any inherent item to drop with more than one mod from the available "mod groups" he mentioned. I saw him post such assertions in the discussion/debate about the various stuff the "Comandeering ..." thread about the weird Mauso loot, too. He argued that the code was separate from the part that was glitched and being allowed to add suffix mods to inherent shields, wands and foci (which is what created the triple-mods.) He said that the game would not have allowed the random generator to produce an item with both an inherent +hp mod and a suffix +hp mod on any of the Mauso shields and foci.

He's human (I think,) so not 100% infallible. But he's had my vote for the single most well informed source on the ins and outs of GW loot possibilities for a lot of years now.

Disproving Yawg's loot theories is kind of scary but interesting, too, when you consider that over six years later there is still so much we don't know for sure about exactly how GW works. That's worth 100k to me!

not loot related but i seem to recall there used to be a pet called Fern Lizards that were found in the northlands of pre (since replaced with piggies). Anyone still have one as a pet or even remember these?
