Default Truly "Unique" collectors

Hi guys, I'm getting tired of the old 15^50 20/20 +30 swords and axes and I'm looking for something unique, which apparently Factions and Nightfall doesn't have. I rather like the random items that collectors have such as Fytch in the Eastern Frontier who offers a "Runic Shield" that gives +5 energy.

Can anyone else find some truly unique items?

Not really collector, but I have seen people lately trying to sell a "HoD" shield that requires tactics and gives 5 energy.

There is of course the fabled "Fiery Flame Spitter" with a HSR 10% Chance mod.

Obtainable from Nicanor Gannel in Pockmark Flats in exchange for 3 scorched lodestones.

The bow you get in this quest is something every ranger should have.

If you look at the collectors lists on guildwiki ull soon find there is infact few Collectors (except in Tryia) that offers ur typical style weapons, there are loads of others such as while enchanted weapons or + 5 energy weapons etc.

A personal fav of mine is my monks wep.

Longsword: (low, low dmg) no req +5 armor HSR 5%, but it has the crystalline sword skin.

It's from pre-searing, easy as shit to get, you get it from the moa quest i believe, but you can convice people its a crystalline if they dont look at it in trade, and no one ever uses it (you can get much better, but its not bad)

Thats what we here at Guru like to call a 'scam'. It is bad. If you 'scam' people, you will die a horrible fiery death at the hands of Gaile. So don't 'scam', kids. It's bad for your health.
This has been a PSA from drakun01.

How can I scam someone if I clearly state I'm not putting it into a trade window? I merely stated that it looks like a crystalline sword, therefor giving you the appearance of massive wealth. I am in no way supporting the known scam of selling these off as crystallines.

I can do without your pho-mod "higher then thou" attitude.

Yes because its all about having the Illusion of Wealth... and wielding a very shitty looking weapon just because its rare, even though the mods are pretty poor...

Why do people constantly hinder themselves with that weapon just to 'look wealthy'.

Didn't they nerf the majority of the quest items? Like the FFS and the IAS Wand?

Because they care what other people think of them... They're cripplingly socially dependant.

Silly humans... I laugh at them.
