r7 and r8 max still drop?!?

Just wondering if r7/r8 still drop?! I have only seen old school items with this low of req.

yes they do. even as uninsc.

I know r8 maxes still drop - are you sure about r7s though?

is it monster loot only or do chest also give r7/r8?

R7's don't drop anymore, but R8's do... from chests or monsters I don't know, I haven't gotten one in ages

oh yeah, forgot to add it's for req8's in my 1st post :P

for req7 i don't know

req 7 does drop still and it has been confirmed by anet. but only in prophecies faction (noninscr) and very rare. its a rumor that they have stopped dropping

I got about a year ago a 16 def spiked targe req 7 in factions... I think they're still dropping.

EDIT: found it on one of my mules - pic added.

Not this again. I had a req. 8 16 AR shield drop(loot, not chest) yesterday. It was white, though, so the merchant got it. I'll trade you an image of a cookie for a screen shot of a req. 7 max item with an inscription that is not faked.

req 8s are absolutely positively confirmed do drop in maxed out state, req 7s im not too sure about but they do drop as whites ive seen it but since its white i sold to merchant.

I think the real question should be do max r8s and/or r7s that don't suck (aka have good inherents/are inscribable) drop as golds (or purps for that matter)?

if they drop as white then they also drop as gold...for each campain its randomly generated from the loot list. Just trying to see if the low reqs are still in that list...

Req8s do for certain, I got a couple max Req8 shields as drops the other day. All blue though, which means that chances are no one will want to touch them.

Max req.7 weapons drop under the following circumstances :

- you are playing on normal mode
- it's a monster drop (not from a chest)
- you are playing in the prophecies or canthan campaign
- you are fighting monsters with a level not higher than 20

Can someone confirm this?

gotten r8 max white weps a few times all recent but r7 i thought they weren't dropping anymore...

I see max r7 and r8 weapons for sale here all the time... I'd say it's most likely that those were somewhat recent drops.

i got a ma gold q 8 aegis in nightfall about 2 years ago farmingin nm bugs from lair offorgotten

just because they are for sale doesnt mean they are a recent drop...

I didnt know if they removed q7 or not..i heard something like that a while ago but didnt know if it was true or not.

req7 golds do not drop, cannot drop. req8 gold can, rarely, same for inscribables.

If you're after a max/gold req7, you have to find an existing one. They stopped dropping a while ago.
