closest i have ever got was a shield whilst doing noob land in factions. Think it was the snowy place near seitung harbor and it was dropped by a yeti. Was before EoTN if i remember anyhoo mods were

Req 7
armor: 15
damage -2(stance)
hp+27 (i think lol)

still got it somwhere. From my experience close to max low reqs drop mid-game. For example, magumma jungle is rumoured to drop req 7s more frequently.. but then again who knows? lol

you have more chance at an eternal blade or something.. heck i might even suggest the Z chest for making money :P

Not too long after I started playing (sometime around the Sorrow's Furnace update, I think) a gold req8 Heavy Summit Axe of Warding dropped for me. It had a crummy mod like +15 while hexed or some such. I think it was in the Northern Shiverpeaks. I had no idea about reqs and such and customized it for my warrior. He's still got it. :-)

I had a req8 Chaos Axe drop for me on one of the first FoW runs I did, around the release of Factions (didn't get started until GW was almost a year in the running). I'd have to ask my wife what was on it, no max mods that I remember... close, but just under max dmg I think, a grape, not a gold. She still has it. One of the many gifts that she has gotten over the last close to 3 years of play.

I still have the first Chaos Axe that she ever had drop for her (her first toon was an Ele, mine is my Warrior), a req11 6-28 14^50. I have better, but it's still the gem of my collection.

A buddy of mine got a max r7 +15% -10AL FDS last week from a locked chest in Hell's Precipice while we were going for Mission+Bonus in HM.

I suppose since I am bored and its costly to farm them anyway I will give a few spots to farm req 7 weapons as much as they can be farmed. I already stated about nahpui for celestial req 7's. A second place in cantha that they seem to drop a little more often is vizunah square mission from the canthan chests in it. The large mix of afflicted levels creates an opportunity for plague born req 7's. The final location is for tyrian req 7 skins that is in the Reed bog. The reed bog will usually output a crappy req 7 max focus,sword,etc every few inventories full of chest running. It is a very quick run and besides the occasional ultra rare perfect gold req 7 it only will net you lucky/unlucky points. Twin serpent lakes is another zone that can drop them semi often. I also don't want you taking semi often out of context by semi often I mean you will occasionally get a piece of crap req 7 that is max from filling your inventory several times in a row running the zone. So I guess gl for the most part your far better off buying them from the few assorted perfect ones.

Wow, I just assumed they were nerfed and those for sale where left over from years ago. I hope I've never sold off a Q8 from raptor farms...

Try farming the ettins in the cave near beacons perch my m8 has apparently got 2 R8 weps there.

Picked a r8 command shield (16AL, inscribible) over in CoF the other night.
