1 - Why are they so valuable? Isn't the skin pretty crappy?

2 - Where is the best place to farm them?

Thanks a lot!

People like the Bo Staff skin, and therefor, they go up in price.
and they only drop Uniscribable, so better mods=the better/higher value.
wiki Bo Stave, and check what mobs that drops them.
though i think the best way is to chest run it.

Thanks for your answer kajusbonus

But why do peoples like the skin? It's just a stick... Probably the worst looking skin in all GW. How is the skin appealing actually? Is it only because it's rare that it's automatically a nice looking skin?

Take by example the Dolyak Prod Staff. The skin is pretty nice with an animated head but it's worth nothing and nobody wants them because they are common.

Do peoples like the Bo staves only because it's rare or because they actually believe the skin looks good?

And even the z chest can't drop them inscripable?

Personally I really like the skin. Not sure why, its just so.... simple I guess.

Although your partly right, some people do like to buy certain skins just because they are rare.

As far as I'm aware you can get every skin from the Zaishen chest and they always drop inscribable.

Not always. All items that come as inscribable have a chance has lacking an inscription slot.

i have no idea why they like that skin. I thought they are crap.
if u want to farm it, i suggest go do some Deep runs
still remember the days i merch 2-3 gold bo staffs per day

No golden Bo´s in the deep.

Someone told me they nerfed them out couple of years ago.
Been there over and over again. Lots of white and blue, possibly some purples but def. no golden Bo´s.

Maybe you meant Zodiac?

You want legit Bo farm places, search for Minister Cho or Halcyon Job.

p.s. concerning value and demand. They are pretty rare which equals high value in the collector market and you can dye them completely which equals style. That is sometimes all you need for a highend item.

Not every skin drops. Most notably, non-primary attribute Canthan-exclusive staves and scepters do not drop from the Z-chest (i.e. Zodiac, Celestial, Amber, Bo, etc.).

I'm pretty sure I have gotten several celestial weaps from the Z chest. The others though I believe you are correct.

wrong. Plagueborn items don't drop. In addition to the ones others pointed out.

edit: Celestial weapons DO drop from it, I've gotten several shields and axes.

Frozen Ele · Aug 16, 2010, 06:24 PM // 18:24

Martial Celestial weapons drop from the Zchest but not staves or scepters.

No, I meant bo, not zodiac

but idk the situation right now. haven't been there quite a while. there was definitely some Bo in there, my frd and I even made fun of it becuz of the crap skin and drop rate.

I'm actually a fan of the Bo-Staff because of the simplicity of it, I'm also a fan of the cosmetic value of being able to dye the full staff a colour (black atm). Other than that I just stick with my Dragon Staff
