And heck... if someone offered to trade me a Celestial Sword for a Colossal Scimitar of equal stats that I'd somehow aquired, I'd accept the trade without question. Celestial weapons are where its at for me, skin-wise.... *shrugs* ... well... and the Celestial shield...
Sure they aren't inscribable. I generally don't care. It may be tougher to get 15^50 on them, but I'd settle for 15-stance or 15-enchant... Its about size. Why do you think the Fellblade is so popular?

For me, the Colossal Scimitar is the weapon that teased me the most since Prophecies.

The weapon rack at Ascalon has a Colossal Scimitar. We've seen this weapon since forever and only now they let us have it! ^^ so ya...

build permitting (it works on the Mo/D), you just need to keep limping along until you get to the 'end', and the termites will de-aggro. If it's a lance, just stop wherever you want.

Also... if you have a minipet, YAA doesn't trigger when it's in range, so abuse it while you can... less cripple = faster runs.

Just looking in highend seems like colossal scimitars are the most abundant item on there XD

though i'm wondering why some ppl are still asking for 120e for a req 9..... I think by far thats the req everyone is getting >_<

I'm not sure if this counts as a farm since it isn't repeatable, I'm sure you could but it would be exponentially more difficult. There is a quest that takes you to barbarous shore where you have to fight Ruthless Sevad's crew. In it are three weapon masters and they seem to drop Colossal scimitars with some regularity. I discovered this by accident after focusing on the weapon masters and, stupidly, ignoring the mesmers. I got murdered but I got one colossal scimitar from that failed attempt. I zone out and zone back in and try again I still fail and no drop. The third time I get one purple and one gold colossal scimitar from the weapon's masters. This is Hard Mode of course. If anyone else has a more successful farming build to test this with be my guest.

so...i only have an Assassin, a Warrior and a Dervish that has done the game...I heard that the 103 Dervish can pull this off (but i cant find the build), the Warrior/Rt i tried but the degen is just too annoying. And using a hex Assassin doesn't work because of the "smite hex" is there any other builds that have worked here?

D/Mo 130 can do it, I've gone quite a few runs today. Landed a few ornates, crudes, etc. but no colossal yet.

It's easier, as usual, to die once first. Didn't know about the minipet trick with YAA so that will help tons!

A warrior rit can only get so far in farming that area, i tried to do it with my build i posted for moddok but was only able to kill one group, after that the ranger+necro was too much degen.

Someone else posted a "solo all corsair build" but that build is utter garbage the only type of heal in it is regen which is conditional, so you'll die slowly.

Make a caster weapon out of it +5 nrg 20 enchant or 10 HSR 20 enchant.
People will buy the non-max ones/high reqs just for these purposes. Don't expect 100k + xx ectos for it. Collosals are pretty much worthless now, just check the 100's in high end with 0 replies

If you guys start getting dry runs in zehlon, there's a bunch more corsairs to the north of the map, along with a lvl 29 corsair ranger. I snagged a r13 off them (ones to the north AkA landing party) after a bunch of crap runs thru the normal area right outside.

Switch it up, it helps.

I don't really notice any antifarm. Cupcakes are dropping less often if anything - the golds and purples aren't really affected.

Anyways, i have not found one yet, but i think i've found like 2 icy blade axes and 2 fiery blade axes. i've been farming this for 2 days and i've found these items and tattooed scimitars instead. Everytime i go to kamadan to sell, the prices of CS drop.

I found 2 in 3 days of farming. In Kamadan, 5-6 people are selling at a time. High end forum has lots as well. The myth about the Colossal Scimitar will soon end?

any help? Resilient Weapon ftw
Also, I found the answer to deal with that dang healer bug, so, Rit's farming is no problem now.

....
Are tattooed scimitars worth to trade?
I got a gold max one with req10, but I felt it too small and ugly, so I sold it to merchant. :sad

I was lucky today lol and bored of 55ing corsairs so I answered a "WTS q11 colassal pm your offers" I wore 100k and he accepted now using my perfect req11 colossal Very happy. I am feeling like I dropped my colossal in zehlon cause I made at least 200k there. But the guy I bought off was very unlucky I still dont understand why he sold it that cheap. I asked him why you selling cheap he said they are very low these times.
