Rarest Weapon Ever?
Eragon Zarroc
What is the rarest weapon that exists or once existed in the entire history of the game and its worth? Personally, the rarest weapon if have ever seen is a r8 15^50 Swamp Club which sold for 1750 ectos.

Well... have a look in the unconditional Thread and you will find a lot "one of a kinds" 
For me I am quite sure there are at least 2 or 3 req8 15^50 Swampies (oh, that's common! :O )
Others... hmm, I don't know, I personally like the req8 Str. -2/st 30hp Gloom Shield (maybe it was -2en, not 100% sure) that is quite likely a "one of a kind" item.

eww in 2005-2006 Swamp clubs were fairly common, The guy who sold the last one around for that 1750e even told me that when he bought hes he had 5-6 offered for 100k+20-30e..
Overall items that were limited ages are are the rarers, If thinking about type, There are way more unconds probs then r8 15^50 cryst&serpent&dwarven, But for r8 15% uncond i just know one.
Also i think there is hardly any uncond axe/Hammer left uncustod or at active account..
For shields, obviously perfect r7's are mostly one of a kind items. same for few r8's, except theres atleast 2 x r8 30/-2st Magmas and so on.

things like the r8 14% serpent and the r12 15% dwarven in my opinion are the rarest. Rarest skins in game, and rarest type of mod in game. I simply don"t think anything could be any more rare. Even though there are lots of one of a kind items those two happen to be inordinately desireable in just about every way.

.....................................Meh, its kind of a vague question to answer. Not the fault of asking it thou. Im sure many people have wondered and asked this in the past. The thing is there can not be any 1 particular rarest item. Before 3 weeks ago and especially 2 days ago I would have told you r8 15^50 Dirks !!! Apparently not anymore 
Should we factor in once an item gets customized it then takes it off the market and thus makes the item even that much more rare for the next person searching for it ? The real answer to the rarest weapon ever is my r10 command Irridescent Aegis I will make a new thread showing why !!! lol

Nice Xunlai, too bad that Q7=noob Q13 does more damage.

Has anyone ever seen an Oldskl q8 Tribal axe of any kind? And hypothetically, howmuch would a q8 +5e or 15^50 one be worth?

Non ins Max Tribal Axes dont exist. Been few of 6-26, 6-27 blue ones sold good bit in past. 6-21 and lower were common anything past 6-21 got to be really rare.
Was rumor Gold 6-26 or 6-27 Tribal Axe that was found, and it was wielded by one original Rawr War players. I could be wrong on this sorta remember something about it

BTW: Does anyone have screens of the req7 grape crystalline? Because I'm not sure if it was real... only know for sure that there is a custo'd req7 15-21 grape Crysta somewhere, but max. req7 Crystalline would be hawt.
Xunlai Guru Agent
Gold tyrian Sickles do exsist there is no doubt about it, I have seen a gold req10 15^50 in game and a friend had a req9 15^stance. Been looking forever to buy a req8 (even tried farming them at some points) with no luck.

Any gold max weapon with unconditional bonus??? Idk if any 15% ones even exist anymore.

Swamp clubs were cheap cuz no one wanted them. Rarer than the crystallines etc that go for the same amount.
So for the ultimate it would have:
a) 1 of a kind is 1 of kind, right.
b) more desired rare skin the better
c) lower req better
d) rare mod/ unconditional damage
If there were 2 r7 15% unconditional rare weapons, it would come down to which skin the richest buyers liked the most.
Every time someone starts a thread like this, I wonder how many nice weapons are sitting in various accounts of people who never even went to guru and quit the game after 6 months or a year.

Showtime.... Too many people. There was a count on all the r8 15^50 Crysta's in game at one point. From what I've learned it was like 6 on one account and the guy quit. Then there was another dozen or so that I was told of.
But I don't count a swamp club as "rare" in the same regard. It is rare, but the skin is common so naturally the desire is low. Where-as things like Crystas, tyrian Serpents, Dwarven Axes are all extremely rare skins. Because there are so many of them is because people didn't keep all there r9 14%stance Swamp clubs back in the day... Everyone kept Crystas.
Also Akh, I heard it from more people after you. Since I started asking most people always tell me one HoH guy had a lot on his account. That there were 4 getting passed around guru. And that there was another bunch going around the French and German sites. I can't be 100% certain, but I can agree at the number 6 being a starting point, and that rumours report that at least 6 more were in circulation.

Well Chris on that note you cannot forget you can get a blue collectors Dwarven Axe in Central Transfer Chamber for a little over what ? 10k ? Serpent drop gold inscribable as well so those 2 skins in fact connot be considered rare Can we really count the Crystalline skin as being rare since that 2 can be aquired easily in pre searing We all know the rarest skin in the game is the Canthan Dragon Staff. Only drops purple and gold and its a rare drop to get. Is there a green or collectors weapon using that skin ? I do not think so. Before we get some people thinking Bo is rarer I will pre-chuckle my lol's.
I know this thread isnt about skin thou but again, there are many factors that go into the thought of whats the rarest item in the game. I will stick with my thought that its a bad subject and its asking for a WAR lol.

Gold Max dmg Sickles did exist when 2 chests were spawn in proph. One the chests drop 5-10 weapons, other one drop 5-10 armors. People were getting Max dmg gold Crystallines, Serpant Axes, Dwarven Axes, Sickles, etc....

I love threads like this So much different things to talk about.
Different things, that's also the problem - thread lacks focus. Generally in GW "rarest" is simply an 1-of and there are many of them in different flavors. Since a weapon can be a 1-of and still there can be a strictly better one, all this talking about "rarest ever" can get pretty awkward. And we have to remember that some uberrarities never hit the market but sit in finder's collection who may not realise it's value. Accounts of players who quit in 2005/06 hide many pleasant surprises.
There was talk of q7 crys, the only one I've ever seen (a screenshot of) is this:
Oh and that q7 Shadow Shield, it was bugging me for years and I was about to post screenshot of it here myself right when this thread started. Does anyone have a clue what could have possibly dropped it? Lost Strongbox?

Ity was my count, to answer your question.
in the age of the r 8 15>50 crystallines i kept count of all of them as best i could.
now realistically is there a possibility one, MAYBEE two escaped my knowing about it? possibly, although unlikely given the absolutly immense resources i had at my disposal in terms of finding and aquiring rare weapons.
as for how many there were; 4. as previously mentioned theres a small possibility that there were maybee 1 or 2 others but the fact is most were gotten from HOH chests and most of those guys (while not traders like i was) werent total imbicils and were aware of their value and more often than not pormptly sold them.
now, out of the 4 that i knew of 2 passed through my hands at different points in my GW career; both of which are now on dead accounts. 1 other, the first one i aquired, was customized by yours truly. the last one was also customized, even before i aquired mine.
So, good luck finding one.
as for the unconditionals; i possess 4 of them, including the 14% uncond serpent axe. honestly i havent played in so long i dont quite remember what the last 3 are. i know ones a r9 15% gladius and 1 of the last 2 is an axe, i think r11 15% and i believe the last ones a sword r8 13%, but i could be mistaken as i'd have to search my mule accounts and to be honest i barely can recall the account names...heh. i also have one of the only perfect magmas shields.
(and you dont even wanna know how many perfect r7s i have)
edit: now that i recall, i think 1 of my unconds might possibly be the 14% uncond mursaat hornbow...ill have to check on that one

Akh u atleast had the r12 15% dwarven at some point!
And I tho u had 2 x r8 stre 30/-2st magmasses?

Has anyone seen a nicely dual-modded inherent Wooden or Stone Chakram?
Those have been dropping since the beginning in Prophecies. I get the impression it's a rare skin drop from any Mesmer foe, as I've seen them drop from Ascalon Gargoyles and Stone Summit Sage.
These are Mesmer offhands, so they're unlikely to be anywhere near as well-known or in demand as the more popular gear like swords. Still, the inherent versions seem awfully rare.
Same question for nicely dual-modded inherent claw-skin Grim Cestas. I know the skin has been dropping since the beginning, but I've never seen a nice max inherent version.
The above are relatively easy to find with inscription slots, though.

Yes, your right... think I've seen some nice claw-skins oldschool Grim Cestas, but not 100% sure. Also I think I have never seen a nice req8 Wooden or Stone Chakram I can remember, but maybe that's just because they aren't demanded that much, so a lot of ppl think they are not worth selling?
Talking about offhands, Paper Lanterns are also very rare. Eir has a req8 +5ar^50% +28HP one, best req8 Paper Lantern I know. Also very few perfect req9s around only. And they don't come inscriptable! So very exclusive offhand skin
Oh... and what's very rare is Tyrian req8 5nrg weapons *cough* I also have a WTB-Thread running there for them *cough*.
I don't know if they can even come with req7... but I only know of maybe a dozen or less req8 5nrgs from Tyria I've seen in all my GW time...
