31+ months playing and this is the only time I have this type of Earth Staff drop for me and it is unfortunately not a max damage :\ but its so pretty.

and Tribal Axe is actually has a pretty impressive size, single handed too! although i don't know why the rendering turns up yucky even when i use the highest quality render in option.

Incase you want to know where it drops, HM pockmark flats by one of the hulking stone elements.

http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Half_Moon - It's too bad it's a short bow. I use this skin for my pve pull bow, since I love it so much (Ranik longbow, 10% hsr spells, quest reward in prophecies).

http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Ivory_Bow - Dyed silver, this bow turns into a very striking white. It's very attention-grabbing. It's too bad it's a hornbow.

Both of the above bows were reskinned for the eotn greens, so I must not be the only person who likes them.

http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Monk_sacred_armor - Pretty much the coolest monk set, the only one that is straight-up white naturally, and looks great in both genders. When dyed black, it's too cool. Whenever I see a monk in this set, I know they rock hard. I personally have 23 sets, and I still wear this set very often.

During the February BWE, what we know now as "Elite Woven" was simply the 60AL version of Wanderer's. Sacred was the "original" vanity armor due to its material expense. (Silk Armor was a bit harder to get, but I thought it was ugly. We know it today as 'collector armor' or 'tyrian armor')

http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Runic_Hammer - The best-looking hammer in the game. Surprisingly, people sell it cheap. It's too bad people don't sell them very often.

http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Cleaver_(tyrian) - I recommend dying this axe green before you ask why I would choose it.

I find this sword to be really spiffy, though I haven't heard any mention of it by any other player.

Then again, maybe that's just because it's a low-level green item. XD

Tell you the truth, I really like the necromancer staff Soul Spire. I think it was really well made by ArenaNet. It's also really original design.

Adamantine Shield gets my vote as it's minimalistic and goes great with certain armors.

Never been a fan of "My eyes are bleeding!!!" or over the top skins.

@Spazzer: Agreed on the tyrian cleaver skin, one of my fav caster weapons ever

I don't see many casters or players around with it lately but for me the gladius is underated, looks sweet on casters and female warriors.

Another not so much underated sword I don't see in the hands of players is the fiery dragon sword.

my current favorite is the (golden) deldrimor staff for my ele and the combo Draconic spear/briahn's guidance (don't see that combo too often to be honest and makes a neat combo for ele's cause of the dual enchant bonus on the shield)

Eternal Blade. It may be overrated, expensive and not many people may have it but the blade has a nice addition when fighting. It leaves a sort of bubble trail when you are just hacking away. Maybe this sword is overrated but I think the extra animation is nice.

Its funny how every rare skin / fancy weapon is OVERRATED.

Ex: "Chaos Axe....it glows, WHOOPDY DO!"
"Crystalline. OMG!!! It looks like its made of plastic."


Seriously, they say its not jealousy, but it is. There is a difference between just hating the look and thinking its overrated.



Neways Wingblade/Butterfly Sword gets my vote for underrated/under appreciated. Maybe its because of the Mesmer mask looking guard that shows them off, but the blade is awesome.
