not today but a little while back doing the halloween quests with someone who didn't have all the nf outposts unlocked I got a Briahn's Guidance...

Normally, I am not a huge fan of greens...but I have been trying to get this color combo down for over a year so the green is probably just as good

I may be wrong here, so somebody please feel free to correct me, but don't drops now say "Double adrenaline gain (Chance:__%)" instead of "Double adrenaline on hit (Chance: __%)"? All I had time to do to check this is check my own items (both have the "adrenaline gain" description, but both are factions origin) and the descriptions for greens on wiki (All pre-WiK greens have "adrenaline on hit" while the WiK greens have "adrenaline gain"). So apparently that change happened between EotN and WiK. If someone wants to look into that/confirm/etc it for me, thanks in advance.

Thanks for pointing that out, it was pretty obvious his claim was an uncreative lie but your post puts the final nail in the coffin.

too bad it wasn't +5 energy too. go big!!!! lol

last night...
r10 str Amber Aegis
+1 20% Death Magic
+45 health enchanted
hard shield to find. interesting mods.

this morning..
r9 core earth staff 20/20
Any serviceable 20/20 staff is neat to me... like 1 out of 100 it seems.

Black dye!

Question is black purposely dropped less than other colors? I've yet to see anyone admit they get black at the same rate as other dyes. I've been paying closer attention since the pinks came out. I've gotten 9 pinks, 5 whites, 2 blacks. With colors like brown coming in around 12 lol. If it is truly random or set up tofall somewhat equally, someone should be scoring the missing blacks... Should we make a thread?

Over the last week while VQ'ing Cantha.

Bo staff - r9 Water - Reduce Deep wound
Bo Staff - r13 Fire - Reduce Cripple
Outcast Staff - r9 Communing - 20% HCT Fire Magic
Dragon Staff - r10 Fire - 19% HCT Water Magic
Forbidden Staff - R10 Divine - Reduce Deep wound

So, after being a bit excited each time I saw one drop, I was then hit with massive disappointment. Still, nice enough drops, pitty about the shit mods.

Not exactly a drop, but I got an Icy Dragon Sword from a gift of the traveller. Plan to sell it to make enough plat to finish up my HoM.

I got my first bds! Q13 prot, which I sold within a minute standing in kamadan for 175e. Might have gotten 5 or 10 more but i hate trading.
So extremely excited i was thinking what to buy. Remembering i still want a vs. Piercing shield for my ranger. After a few spams i decided to take a look on guru and figured I'd pm a collector. So i ended up with a max gold q7 celestial shield, oldschool with -2(stance), +10vs. Piercing.
That made my day and i decide to sit on it forever(:

Might put up a screen lateron if theres interest

Edit: its a tactics shield

Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but that OS +10 vs shield doesn't actually give the +10 vs. If you want +10vs use an inscribable shield.

R/A tank i suppose.

BTW the fact that there's a bug in armor stacking with OS shields doesn't mean that that shield isn't...quite awesome. In my eyes at least.

Was doing the bounty just now, and opened the chest and my first ever polymock piece popped out.



I must admit, it was "nice" to finally get one.

^^ Nice one, congrats.
Last week on the way to Nick (through the Ice Imps cave) finally had an Icy Dragon Sword drop.
Nothing flash these days maybe, but's its still one of my favorite sword skins ... seeing as most of my drops consist of only gp, I was impressed

Grats. Ahhh the simple pleasures!

I envy you. Nowadays I can't get excited at all if it isn't a requirement 9 elite skin.

Haha, I get excited when greens drop. I essentially spent two years of playing the game in Pre-Searing and Shing Jea Island. I only beat Prophecies once. Now that I'm finally pushing myself to play through each campaign, it's like I'm a brand new player.
