What Is A Perfect Sword?

I Need A Perfect Sword But I Don't Know What That Is What Would The Stasts Look Like?
Tookis Elite
it can have other mods though and still be perfect, but this one is perfect
ROO123
So How Do You Get A Sword Like That And What Does It Look Like In The Game?
Dahl
roo, just forget about getting a perfect sword for a little while, I guarantee you don't have the cash for it. A perfect sword with a rare skin can cost you 300,000 gold or more.

Be very very lucky.
Nice Sword.

A "perfect" sword just has to be max damage (15-22) and have mods that you like. There is no definition for a "perfect" sword. It's different for different people.
If you want a "perfect" sword, first just get far enough in the game where all the swords you find are max damage. Once you get there, you will find different mods and different skins for your sword. If you see a skin you really like, then make sure it is a max damage sword. If it is max damage, keep it, and then just salvage mods that you like off other swords and apply those mods to the sword you like. Eventually, you will have a sword that is "perfect" for you.
Alternatively, you can just get a green sword that you like from farming the boss that drops it, or buying it from players. If you want to know all the greens, then you can go to http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Main_Page and then scroll down to "Green" Weapons.

I consider a perfect sword max damage and have a mod that you can't get rid of on it that is as good as it will get.

is a sword and an axe the only things good to have a furious mod on? my hammer has it and people think its crap.
Pupu
you shouldent care what other ppl think..
furious is effective on all warrior weapons

Don't forget there are also collector weapons. These will give you max damage and max stats - all for a certain number of collectible items. The skins on them vary from ugly to decent depending on what chapter your in.

People have this idiocy stuck in their head that 20/20 sundering and +30 fortitude is the best for every weapon in every situation and that anything different than that is just no good. To those players I say: What a joke.

Perfect inherent mods for a sword are:
DAMAGE
+15% always (no negative..these no longer drop)
+15% while health is over 50%
+15% always -10 armour whilst attacking
+15% always -5 energy
+5 energy
+15% in a stance
+15% while enchanted
+15% vs Hexed foes
+20% while hexed
+20% while health is below 50%
(note this list doesnt include the new inscriptions...we would be here forever)
I think thats the lot. 'Perfect' is hugely dependant on what you need the weapon for, and what build you are taking. If you will constantly be using a stance for instance then a stance based sword will be, at least as, if not more effective than a 15^50 sword.
In terms of prefixes and suffixes (hilts and pommels) my personal weapons of choice are usually vampiric or zealous (hilts) and usually a pommel of fortitude or defence(+5 armour always). defence is obviously far cheaper so run with this if you have too its arguably as good.
Oh yeah and if you are going to Ebay GW gold, please at least be aware that :
1) Your account can be deleted for it
2) Anet employees regularly browse these forums
3) If you must ADMIT to it then dont leave your IGN attatched to your avatar...
Peace

SO because nobody would give you free gold you have to break the rules and cheat? I don't care how many games you have or how far you are. We all work very hard for our money, using our time of day to make trades and killing for drops when little newbies just go and buy illegal money.
I'll tell you this now, even with perfect gear, you will be a terrible player.
I could use a white nonmax weapon and still beat the crap out of any perfect character you have. Personal Skill is the biggest advantage you can have in this game, and you do not have it.

Maybe I can see the 'want' or even 'need' to ebay in horrible grind-intensive games like Lineage2 or other korean grindfests...
But ebaying in GW? You seriously lack any sort of will to succeed, I'm guessing. Seriously, I barely put out any effort to get money in this game and it freaking TUMBLES into my lap. just play the damn game instead of paying others to do half of it for you.
I mean what would you think of some guy in baseball paid someone else to go to batting practice for him? "Well, um, I had the money?" Not really an excuse, you'd still think he sucked.
Not to mention ebaying is strictly against the rules - and if ANet finds out - which from what I hear, they do quite often, your account gets banned and now you're out the $150+ you paid for all 3 campaigns.
I'm just going to stop now. I could rant on this all day, but I'm guessing there's no point. You'll probably just come back with some arguement like "OMFG! But I've Got A Girlfriend You Pissant And Money And An Uber Job And I Can Just Buy Anything I Want! I Could Buy You! OMFG!" Or something equally vapid, like I've seen out of 99% of the people who I've ever seen make a post like this one.
Ok - I'm done.

You dont really "need" that much money at the moment anyway mate, you are at the begining of the game by the looks of things from the percentages you have mentioned, and even the top end armours can be purchased for around 10k for a full set. There are numerous collecters items in game which will give you the basic "perfect" stats that you are after, which you can get just by killing various enemys and trading the drops with collecters.
It seems that at this point you are still finding your feet in the game so I will give you this piece of advice.
Get yourself a Victos blade for 5k
req 9: 15^50 :3-1(vampiric) :+30hp
You really dont need 500k to set yourself up man. Plus you wont feel the satisfaction of that one perfect drop it seems we all eventually get. Not if youve already bought everything you think you might want , without playing the game enough to know for sure...not really anyway. Save your money until you know what you want to do with it. Other than buying skills of course which is a given.

Regardless, if you think you're helping the REAL LIFE economy by buying GW gold, you're sadly mistaken.
IIRC, CNN did a thing about it about a 2 months back.
When you buy GW Gold (an imaginary item) with cash/credit (a real-world item) for a value set by mostly in-game factors (imaginary), and most of your real-world payment is sent overseas to people who, more likely than not, will not reciprocate the favor for your country, it creates imbalances in economy and actually devalues world currencies (Including your own).
Think about it, if a guy started a company selling "Invisible Baseball Caps" in Thailand. And 3478625 people sent him $10 each for an "Invisible Baseball Cap" which is actually is just an empty cap-shaped box, you don't think that would have an impact on the economy?
You're sending money overseas for NOTHING. You get no actual compensation. You are almost literally GIVING money to another country.
Helping the economy? Grow a braincell.

Dude,
Don't ebay. Its a good way to get banned. I have posted the same comment in several threads that spending real money for in-game money is just lazy. But, no one has a right to say what you can spend your real money on. I don't think anet should have the right to ban you for ebay'ing but they do have the right and they will ban you. Be careful. Look through this website. There are many tips on how to become in-game rich.

This may sound odd but, the perfect sword for me is my 14-21 dmg vampiric scimitar of warding that dropped for me in the falls. It is only +19% hexed too, but I am happier using that than anything else. Maybe because it is mine ... if you know what I mean.
I don't 'farm' as such, running out to let a few trolls thump me and die in the process is extremely boring, instead I made it my mission to find a way to solo the falls with my warrior. I have now worked out a build and system where I can clear everything in there. Sometimes I die and have to work to clear the DP, but I always clear it. It is a labour of love and I reward myself by standing at the top, enjoying the FP view of the falls, once it is clear. The sense of achievement from this is great. I also play with builds to manage other 'tough' areas, such as sand giants and perdition rock. As a result, after 4 months of playing and enjoying myself, I have cash and materials that have built up to in excess of 1 million. You should try that, before actually breaking an agreement you made when signing up to play the game.
To buy stuff ingame with real money is wrong and anyone who does it deserves to be banned. Just play the damn game, your 500K of illegally gotten gold will not make you a better player than someone who collects 5 bleached carapaces for a perfectly good functional sword.
And Dahl I agree with you .... what a joke. That 30 hp won't do jack if you are getting your butt handed to you on a plate, but the energy/adrenaline to stop the butt handers might. Depends on the situation, I wish people would actually think more. I mean this sort of idiotic following what everyone else says, is why so many people were crying after the 55hp nerf. Didn't affect me 1 bit

I must stop now before I really start ranting.
Peace! Cheers!!

Report him to Anet for openly admitting to buying gold.
Then they look at his records, see a sudden HUGE rise in money, and ban him.
Simple. I'm sure GW Guru would provide an IP address of the OP.

His 204 sword probably had crap mods on it when it was dropped from the monster/chest while yours probably had good ones spyder.

As for which sword you should get, I'm serious. If you think the game is too hard at Lion's Arch or wherever you are, you have no idea what's ahead of you. Just keep your sword, it's fine, and start unlocking the rest of the warrior skills at skill trainers, try a few other secondary classes, buy Gladiator's Armour at Droknar's Forge, if you haven't already.
Good luck. And yes, ebaying is against the rules. Enough people do it that you shouldn't get too upset about that, but you still wasted your money.

Ebaying guild wars gold is paying someone else to do the work for you.
Being run to droknar's forge is paying someone else to do the work for you.
They are one in the same.
If you have all 3 campaigns, and if you simply must have max armor, do it the legit way and travel to kaineng center to buy your max armor. It might not be as good looking, but it's LEGIT
