Haha, damn another ridiculously long sword (which only serves to make it look like it's got zero mass when wielded).
It looked much better in the original version; only two-handed swords should be that ridiculously long, IMO.

Anet could just put "greater" and "lesser" versions of some of these swords.

but that would be far too straightforward.

according to gw offical wiki, the color of the emeral blade varies depending on which campain your in. it looks green in tyria, blue in cantha and turquoise in elona. and it doesnt mention any animation, so it might not actually have any.

Whoever added that to Wiki is severely confused. The emerald blade doesn't change colors with each campaign, it's just VERY susceptable to different lighting. The link below shows Kryta, Elona in Light and Shade, Cantha. The original picture I posted shows the Southern Shiverpeaks. It's entirely depending on the light, nothing more.

Er, did you really expect to get anything with 26 picks? If it were that easy, quite frankly, we'd be up to our eyeballs with the things already.

i also doubt the draconic and starting to doubt the celestial dropping there also.. i honestly have lost count of the picks i have used there.. plus my guildies and alliance has also tried there in both nm and hm.. so if we can see screenies to prove they drop from the uplands.. seen plenty of screenies showing both coming for UW though...

Wasn't it confirmed some time ago that the Draconic Aegis does infact not drop from the Uplands, and someone just got it confused with the Celestial compass?

Official wiki is now listing draconic as coming from UW/FoW/Hierophant's chest. Can anyone confirm any of these, or this this just more of "my cousin's boyfriend's brother's dog found on in a D. Uplands chest?"

The only confirmed drop for the Draconic Shield, afaik, is the Zchest.

I really wish one person from ANET would post something to clear up the confusion about where / where it does not drop on both the Draconic Shield and Celestial compass.

I would have loved an inscribable version of it. Font color is irrelevant.

Too bad the drop rate on them is pretty high at the minute. Not a bad skin, nothing worth spending money on though.

I would suggest that you add your excellent picture to Guildwiki, and correct the information.
