My partner had one drop from a coldfire i think but it was a few weeks back now.

zadinos · Sep 04, 2006, 06:53 AM // 06:53

Coldfire , uhmm , me and my monk friend try to avoid them cos of bad drops lol.

Luciora · Sep 04, 2006, 08:08 AM // 08:08

So any creature in UW is able to drop it???? Been farming the UW to bits, even trying to ge the to the pits and chaos planes since we get no shield drop in the first areas

To be honest, I haven't seen very many of these shields for sale in the marketplace districts since their inception. I wonder if ANet needs to tweak the droprate a little on these?

zadinos · Sep 04, 2006, 02:31 PM // 14:31

I think its gd that they drop so little like now. Many of items drop like crazy and its not so special like before.
Personally i want one for my warrior but its kinda hard to get one and ppl are asking alot of money for em.

Mr.Pickle · Nov 04, 2006, 08:59 AM // 08:59

i've been on two duo runs where a gloom came up, for the other guy

in both cases the shield was a chest drop within the Ice Wastes. since the update before NF it's anyone's guess about drop location. sweet skin imo

....... I got a Gold one from a smite... (req 9, perfect)

They look really nice and are really rare, its the first time a got that shield in any form.

What were stats and post a pic of it if you still have and if you sold how much you get for it.

I would also like to know the exact time and date you found it. The person you sold it to. How many bid on it? How many pixels it takes to create a Gloom Shield? What was the final attack you unleashed on your foe before it dropped? Once you're done please include a picture of your kitchen sink.

/sarcasm off

i was under the impression that these only dropped from chests in UW, including ToPK...but thats just me and HoH chests...but I think those can drop anything

Million dollar (or should I say gold) question! lol

Narutoscryed · Nov 05, 2006, 06:51 AM // 06:51

i actually had one drop from a chest in uw not to long back..

req 10 -2 enchanted..

not sure about monsters. but i would guess so. just a real slim chance

mrlopes · Nov 05, 2006, 07:20 AM // 07:20

Got 2 in UW. Both come from chests.

req9, +29hp always
req12, +45hp enchanted

Before the update I use to kill some of the coldfires in specific locations, just to be easy to join a great group of smites, never get a gold drop from them.

Avarre · Nov 05, 2006, 07:59 AM // 07:59

Chests drop loot from the mobs around them. The reason ectos and UW items can be found in the ToPK has nothing to do with the ToPK itself, it has to do with the Terrorweb Dryders and Banished Dream Riders, both UW mobs, in the zones.

They're very rare drops from mobs as it is, as I believe they can only drop rare. Therefore the likelihood of random loot rolling to be gold, and then to be a Gloom Shield is relatively small... as for what they drop from (besides chests), any mob in the Ice Wastes would be a good start
