The ones that were either hero's ascent or super rare drops that are more common in GWEN? I've heard people complaining about them.

RTSFirebat · Sep 07, 2007, 06:53 AM // 06:53

Common rare drops? that is news to me.

Enko · Sep 07, 2007, 06:56 AM // 06:56

i think he's talking about the purple crystallines, the craftable dwarven axes, and the reaver green

RTSFirebat · Sep 07, 2007, 07:32 AM // 07:32

Well even if those do drop, does it really matter? The old school ones are and always will be worth more gold.

wolfwing · Sep 07, 2007, 08:38 AM // 08:38

well I heard someone talk about stuff like Ice blades and such. Not more common, but the super rare or hard to find ones.

Seissor · Sep 07, 2007, 09:05 AM // 09:05

plat weapons, once rare, drop constantly now.

Where? I've yet to see one Plat weapon drop anywhere in GW:EN.

Cebe · Sep 07, 2007, 09:24 AM // 09:24

I had a Platinum req 9 Divine wand, inscribable, drop in Frostmaw's Burrows.

There certainly do seem to be a lot of inscribable Platinum weapons around now.

AscalonWarrior · Sep 07, 2007, 09:55 AM // 09:55

Yup, I did Frostmaw Burrows with 7 allies. Almost every chest dropped one plat weapon.

arcanemacabre · Sep 07, 2007, 10:13 AM // 10:13

My wife found a nice inscribable Platinum Longbow somewhere in GW:EN - can't remember, but it was during the preview weekend, so somewhere in Norn territory.

SotiCoto · Sep 07, 2007, 10:27 AM // 10:27

Alright.

No more farming Jade Brotherhood for me.
My Assassin is going Frostmaw-hunting!

Traveller · Sep 07, 2007, 10:27 AM // 10:27

Frostmaw's Burrows and Raven's point seem to drop these quite often. I have two staves already and I usually have terrible luck with rares.

william1975 · Sep 07, 2007, 10:31 AM // 10:31

i have had two platinum longbows out in luxon lands, but got one from a chest in frostmaw recently, Pyre now uses it, and unfortunatly i cant put it into my valour shrine

Malice Black · Sep 07, 2007, 11:00 AM // 11:00

Runic Blades is the answer.

These use to fetch 100k+250e+ for a req9, now a req9 can be bought for 100+10e and dropping by the day.

Also, Stygian reavers will take a hit due to there being a green version now (which is easy to farm with the right build). Crystallines apprentley drop in PvE now (besides the Kilroy chest) only purples though, no reports of a gold dropping yet.

What you are refering to is glacial blade, and it's preorder weapon, and as such doesn't drop.

pork soldier · Sep 07, 2007, 12:40 PM // 12:40

I got a req 10 inscribable Platinum Longbow out of a chest near the rabbit hole.

Malice Black · Sep 07, 2007, 12:50 PM // 12:50

My only GW:EN gold was a Plat Broadblade

Coridan · Sep 07, 2007, 12:55 PM // 12:55

i think the ember weapons will be rare.

The embersteel and embercrest are the only ones i have heard of but i would assume there is atleast a shield, bow, and daggers to go with them

EDIT: I am a dumbass didn't realize the topic was OLD rare items in GWEN

Oh well. I have had several platnium staffs drop during the preview...but then they went and nerfed the drops...my ele sure loves the req 10 plat staf

Guildmate was on his way getting faction points from Rata Sum when he came across some spiders. One of the Venomweavers dropped a Req 11 Elemental Sword. I told him to sell it quick
