Question about req7 items
Slabby
Hi, I was wondering if weapons with a requirement of 7 are still able to drop
Commander Ryker
Max req 7? I'm not sure there is such a thing, I believe req 8 is the lowest on max and if there is a max req 7 then it is the rarest of the rare.

ryker - there are req 7 items from prophecies

Ive only seen max req 7's in the post your awesome armor thread.Im not sure if they drop still but i wouldnt be surprised if they still do in prophecies.

They do still drop. For max weapons the lowest req. is 7 for non inscribable, 8 for inscribable.
This being said max req. 7 weapons with decent mods are VERY hard to come by.

Yep, max req 7 items are still out there, along with some other oddball items that you don't see very often, but they're not very common. And like R1p70r said, they usually come with lousy stats. Most of my odd items I've found in the UW, tho I don't know if thats the most common place to find them or just my wierd luck at work.

I had a max, req 7 Gothic sword drop for me - no inherent mods and it was clean. added 20/13 Sundering Hilt and Swordsmanship +1 20% pommel to it, but not sure what it'd be worth. I've had it for a little while, but Nightfall was already out (or about to come out) when I got it as a drop in the Echovald Forest.

i have a max req 7 longsword 14%^50% so i know they exist, ultra rare to see a good req7 item.

Everyone knows they exist, I have a perfect r7 Crenellated myself, but I want proof that they still drop at this very moment. Anet could have discontinued them.
Edit: I'm talking about Gold, Max Damage weapons from Prophecies/Factions

Although I have no proof there seems to be a steady supply of R7 items which can only suggest they still drop. Maybe only imperfect items drop as R7 now as I have seen alot of non max / imperfect inherent damage modifier items come up for sale.
Would be nice if they no longer dropped though.

I've never seen an r8 item drop in NF as max and never seen anyone selling a scythe or spear that was r8. I have seen r8 inscribables for sale. What is the actual use of these items anyway?

Rarity? People like having rare stuff.
The only 'real' advantage is that there's some monk builds you could run at 7/8 Tactics, and get the full benefit of a shield.

i always thought that lower lvls would drop max req7s .. seeing as they drop lower dmg stuff, the req is lower, and sometimes they drop max.. so the req might stay low? =/ ...
maybe low lvl in HM or something.

It seems to me that there are specific weapon types which come/came with max req. 7.
Mostly swords and shields. I've never seen a max req. 7 bow, hammer or staff/wand.
And all of them where either proph or faction items. I've seen ''loads'' of req. 7 celestial stuff in the past months here on guru...
So maybe hardcoregrind vermins...?

Max Req7 items generally only drop in the areas where a low level area joins into a higher level area.
That is why there is a lot of Req7 Celestial items and no max/gold req7 Chaos axe's or Fellblades. (as they only drop in level20+ areas)

Yes there are req. 7 fellblades, though they are white. I once found one while farming some trolls in their hood and i saw several times threads in the PC section here. No, i don't have a SS, believe me or not, i don't care

req7 gold max item's stopped dropping with the hard mode update back in april.
since that day req9 is the new req8, which means with extreme luck u'll still be able to drop a max req8, but a req7 is completely impossible to drop now.

Gold Req 7's do drop, just not max ones that usually have crappy mods. Just the other day I was 55ing Gates of Kryta in normal mode (didn't realize I forgot to put HM on), and I got a gold req 7...non max fire staff.
To the OP, correct me people if I am wrong, I think it is still possible for max q7 golds to drop, they are just exceptionally rare-er then before.

Hmmm
Req 7 yes i found fellblade 15-22(blue)req7 11%in stance aweek ago outside war camp (farming summits) so yes i belive they still drop but in a low persantage.
Note
my 2nd req7 drop) first 1 was a white chaos axe in FOW and was 6-28 1 year ago.

neither i've been able to farm any req7 in tyria since hard mode ( i used to find 2-3 a month before -now i find 2-3 req8 gold weapons doing the same farm i did for req7s- ), and none of the ppl in my friend list have dropped one.
say what u want as it's not in a game update changelog, i'm about 99.99% confident that req7 max items are out of the game, u'll never drop one again

Prefect mod req7 did exist.I've got a req7 15^50 fds from trade a years ago

I'll admit, I haven't seen one for some time and the only r7 I own is a r7 Bladed Buckler, purple, +25 health. I paid 2k for it ^^ Used to have a white r7 brute sword a looong time ago.
Having said that I got a r6 command, armor 14, gold scarabshell aegis with +45/-2 in a stance the other day, which I was really pleased about. I got lots of gold r8 items way back when I used to farm prophecies - still have a couple of them too.
But r7? I haven't seen one drop for over 2 years now.

I know for a fact Tommy from QQ/iQ had a max req. 7 shield (I saw it) so they do exist. I heard they no longer drop though.

I have gotten only 1 req 7 drop and it was a gold req 7 15-22 14%>50 forked sword that I received 5 or 6 months ago. I still have it so later when I get home from work I'll post a pic, so at least there is proof they did in fact at 1 time exist.
