Eye of the North Unique Item Weekend -- 21 September 2007
During this weekend bosses throughout the Eye of the North expansion will have triple the chance to drop their unique weapons. This increased droprate will start at noon (-7 GMT) on Friday, September 21 and will continue until 23.59 (-7 GMT) on Sunday, September 23.

My pet peave with this is that more then half of the greens come from dungeon chests. It would be nice if they increased the green drops on dungeon chests too.

Try and find an item you want from here and then farm the boss. But no shields, most of teh 15^50 20/20 +30 items are also from end of dungeon chests.

number of new heroes * number of characters = goodies needed desperately

Yeas, quite convenient, a new drop weekend. Maybe GW:EN will drop me something decent after all.

That's a good thing. The less sundering weapons there are in the world, the more beautiful it is.

Most of the skin look crap anyway, plus I have all of the bonus weapons for my heroes. Triple factions point weekend would be much better.

And I 100% agree, the less 20/20 sundering in the world the better it is.

Triple Green Drop fails.

The greens in the new campaign largely use old, crap skins... have tarded and unvaried stats based on what they ASSUME people want to use... and generally fail at life.

... At least most of them do.
I randomly got Pywatt's Talons the other day with my Assassin.... (same model as Shreader's Talons, but black with slight orange mottling) .... noticed they were Zealous Daggers of Enchanting.... and promptly made a beeline back to the nearest outpost to customise them! ^_^
As if my sin doesn't have enough daggers already.... but I couldn't resist.

Has it been confirmed that the drop rate increase does not apply to the dungeon chests?

It does specifically say bosses drops rather then simply saying triple green drops.

I guess the list of greens might not be completly updated but still. Take out all the green chest drops and only look boss drops and what's left isn't all that impressive.

tyche7 · Sep 19, 2007, 04:47 PM // 16:47

I'm excited about this! FINALLY I **MIGHT** get a drop or two WORTH KEEPING from GW:EN!! That...is...unheard...of....

Green crap weekend, where's the triple rep points weekend? considering the crappy grind we have to do now.

Razz Thom · Sep 19, 2007, 05:39 PM // 17:39

I like the trip-da-green idea, but like the trip-da-rep better!

puffzilla · Sep 19, 2007, 06:28 PM // 18:28

Well I'd like the tripple green if it included the chests more. Can't have a tripple or double rep until they open up hard mode. It's that last 120 000k points that's probably going to feel like grinding.

The Visitor · Sep 19, 2007, 07:21 PM // 19:21

anyone know if the end chest of dungeon are included too?

puffzilla · Sep 19, 2007, 07:34 PM // 19:34

It specifically says bosses will drop and nothing about chest drop. Like I said there aren’t many boss green drops. Most of the GWEN drops come from chests. It would be nice if they included the green chests items too.

puffzilla · Sep 19, 2007, 10:08 PM // 22:08

http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Weekend_events : Mentions only bosses but the logon guild news says throughout eye of the north. So should be pretty good after all

Gli · Sep 19, 2007, 11:00 PM // 23:00

Awww... not the dungeon reward chests please. I much prefer to get nice versions of some of the dungeon-specific rares over more greens I'll never use.

You just described *most* greens, actually...
