Not had any myself, but I've seen a few max, low req. blue weapons around. Quite weird indeed...

Also, ironically, it's better than 99% of the drops and chest items I've had so far due to the fact that it's max...which is a novelty in EotN.

From what I've seen in NF, you can get inscriptions on virtually any blue/purple/gold item regardless of the req. Not sure if that hold true in GW:EN or with rarer skin items, but I think it does.

Also, it seems that "Show me the money" and "Measure for measure" are somewhat more common on low req equipment.

The inscription isn't the odd part, the 12 (max) energy is.

As a matter of fact, the only req 8 max weapons I've found were blue. it's not odd.

In Jaga Moraine yesterday I had one of the enemy bosses bone fiends drops a white spawning wand. I don't believe that I've EVER seen a minion drop anything.

yeah i've had a few blue inscribable max energy req8 dropped in NF and EotN. I just pay attention to blue drops since I ID them to get more gold when selling to merch or to get these rare items. I don't really know what they are worth though.

PS: In Slavers exile when the wolf becomes hostile he managed to kill one of the guards who dropped a map piece.

Now that is weird for minion drop item. For me, teh chat log said "xxx" enemy drop item "white dye" for me, but i cant see the drop at all. Nothing! Nada, empty! I have looked around everywhere to find it and it nothing. At the time i was with heroes & henchies,..so probably H/H stole it from me. But it showed clearly on the chat log that the drop is for me.

Odd things for me were getting a hammer drop from a bone fiend in EotN( it was also in Jaga Moraine), a string of only purples from locked chests in Dungeons, (I haven't gotten a gold in four days, and I'm in more than two dungeons every day)

All of the bone fiends near Avarr the Fallen are considered monsters. They do not degen, they give XP and drop loot (I got a grape req 13 non max hammer from one). If they weren't, everyone would sit back and watch them degen into nothing before soloing Avarr and capping Jagged Bones.

Weirdest drop really is not weird in the sense that i've never seen it before, but rather weird as in cursing my bad luck. Mine was going through a 3 level dungeon and getting a non max gold req 11 hammer when other 3 party members got a green, an onyx and a diamond.

Cheers,

As far as the req 8 blue, I've seen at least 5 of those.. they're actually pretty common :\

Theese drops are semi-rare, but greatest challenge in obtaining them is to notice then being max and not merching them rightaway.
