Wierd because thoes are both now inscriptions. It dropped before inscriptions were part of the game, so I don't even know if things like that are still possible.
Grats on those. R8 Str and -2/-2 on them? If only I were so lucky.

You missed the point.

The whole reason they are unusual is cause they don't deal the same type of damage as every other sword or hammer.

^^ R A N D O M - haha, I think I have exactly that same sword stored on one of my chars, kept it thinking I might salvage the sundering mod at some point.

I still have my very 1st gold drop from Factions, 7-10 daggers with +5E.

I think Kiya is teh winnar with that staff for the well-rounded ele.

They have so much use if you put them on Ball Hammers!

Anyways nothing to special here, just some weird shields with stupid mods or stuff like that..

I have a Gothic Sword 15%, -1 ENERGY regeneration - I think they don't drop anymore! Since it's max, gold, and req 8, makes for a nifty item as well!

I also have somewhere a Canthan shield +9 vs demons, +45 enchanted, thought it was unusual, but now I read the OP and I see it's not that unusual

And not to mention that recently I found an axe 7-26 ... I knew these existed, but I've been playing GW for more than 2 years and this is the first time I've seen one!
