I've -heard- of them. There really isn't much point in having a req7 sword though >>

heard and seeing them are to different things.
so i say they dont exist unless someone posts one thats not photoshopped.

its like saying i "heard" a max armor shield req1 +300 -100 (100%). hearing doesnt count.

I have only seen inscribed req 8 max off-hand items.
I have only seen inscribed max weapons with a minimum of req 9.

The req 7..8 max existed probably due to flaws in the drop generation systems, and they probably fixed them a little with the new drops.

There was a guy showing off his req8 ele sword on a DoA run one time... more than half the party stopped to open trade with him. -_-

Max Damage Req7s are as common as weapons with 15% more damage unconditional.

There's hardly any left.

Same. Had a few shields and foci drop r8 inscribable, though only blue and purple. I have seen a couple of gold r8 for sale. But never, ever seen r8 insc weapons of any kind, nor r7 anything inscr. There is the occasional r7 insc shield with 15 armor, which are popular.

Haven't seen an insc. r7. Ran into someone looking for a PC on an insc. r8 brute sword - it was purple & max but I didn't ss it.. truthfully, didn't think much of it at all - seen quite a few r8 inscribable max purples that weren't offhands or shields, i figured they were fairly common. *shrug*

r8 weapons still drops, including new gwen skins. shields/offhands much more common but martial weapons drop too.

sadly its blue one

It is not possible to obtain a max damage Req 7 inscribable weapon. The only Req 7's are non-inscribable and those no longer drop now as well. I am one of the bigger collectors left in gw of req 7 gear and I assure you it is very hard to come by and every time I buy a piece I always ask where it came from I have yet to have someone say in any recent time.(always pre-nightfall)

There's no way any "max damage" weapon will do max damage with 7 to the attribute.

Once again we are back to this discussion. Yes they are FRAKIN possible to drop. you just need to know what the hell they would drop from from. Not only have I seen a max q7 GOLD inscribale but it did drop for me. No I didnt take a SS of it as I know there not as rare as most people seem to think.


Now I'll give a clue or 2 but the rest you need to figure for yourself.

1st clue- THEY WILL NOT DROP IN HM
2nd clue- THEY WILL NOT DROP FROM ANY CREATURE HIGHER THAN LVL 19

Yes req.7 ins. do drop. You will never see one gold though, that is the catch. Your likely to see them drop blue, and most of the time without an inscription slot, as is my luck in this game.

As maxed stats though? If anyone has a SS of a max, req7 weapon/offhand, post it here, because I'd like to get some confirmation about all these rumors. If there is one, it'd be awesome to get.

Shields are usually one off max armor, offhands are max to one off, and as far as wands/staves/swords/etc no clue. Of course my lacking of screen shots will have the community up in arms, so I guess I'll go farm and see what i can come up with this weekend.

Agreed. As of right now, I'm writing it off as purely a rumor and nothing more. As they say, "Pic or GTFO."

I'm pretty sure that max req7 inscribables do not exist. However req 8's certainly do.

The SS doesn't matter if you still have this item and can show in game, however why do I think you will say oh I sold it to someone I don't remember the name of or something of that nature.

As a matter of fact I know who I exactly sold it too. Same one I sell to all the time when I get something I dont want nor care to ever use or waste my time selling. A little secret I dont care about money in game so selling to others dont crank my willy one bit. BTW it was daggers thats what they were. If you dont wnat to take the time yourself to actually put a little more effort into it, not my problem. QUite frankly I dont care if people want to believe me or not I gave the clues necessary to find them have fun.

Hey dont get all worked up about it...

he cant, he wont and hes bulls.... us whole time... if he had it or it dropped for him it would made its way to high end or similar forum... coz there isnt any1 in this game thats alergic to money... ppl who say they are are just incompetent to make some and like to get attention to themselfs by saying they dont care about stuff other ppl care... simple, childeish and totaly not worth our time...

As u all know all weapons have lowest and highest req. that they can drop in...
different skins have different rules... So Brute sword was dropped r7 not anymore... fellblade never dropped 7 as wasn't the cryst... as u all know with Nightfall and now GWEN all weapon skins are moved 1 req up to make up the difference between PvP and PvE equipment...

So, as it was discussed many times over... no req 7 inscribable has ever dropped... and nor it will until anet changes something in some future update... which will i think never again happen... like all unconditional weapons were a bug, like 60hp axe like all the things that were buggy in this game... so r7 tac shields were popular with monks... and they are gone... all r7 equpment is gone... get over it... req5-6 shields non max with perfect mods also gone 2 years almost... 3 mods shield also bug for a certain time... all gone...

I don't know if there's req 7's (although some guy recently posted req 7's to the "post your awesome weapons" thread in the screenshot forum), but req 8's still drop - I got a req 8 half moon yesterday, screenshot available if necessary.

The thing is that most the req 8's aren't gold, but purples and blues.

Not true.

Thats what the requirement is for man.

A Q7 item would deal max damage at 7 in its attribute, a Q13 item does max damage with 13 in that attribute.

Thats all it means. -.-

All weapons deal full stated damage at req 12. They deal a fraction of max damage if you do not meet the requirement. r7 and r12 do the same damage at 12 weapon attribute. Going above 12 continues to provide a damage benefit.

This is why requirement doesn't really matter besides vanity, because if you use a weapon and don't have high weapon attribute in the first place you're probably bad.
