You may be in for a long wait to get my dragon shield. That's important - I can't fight animals as well as you. Dragons will kick my butt too much without that shield.
Oldschools Shields =D

As I said: I only know of 2 req8 glooms in the game, although there might be little more, but I am quite sure they can't drop anymore nowadays. Proof me wrong if you can

But yeah, it could be that that rule applies, I haven't done that much research so far..
And, only 2? I would doubt that, I'm pretty sure there is more..
o m g pizowned
req8 glooms are extremely rare. havent seen one for sale in years

Teehee Kai's a noob

Kai is just a nice dude, sometimes
Crazy is someone that merched a ton of r7 swords in a rage :P
And I don't have any good shields

I like Toadie's solution to the shield. One-of-a-kind stuff and stuff so rare it's practically impossible to PC can be a drag to sell for something as boring as money. Much more fun to give it to a buddy where you know it'll have a home in a good collection. As a bonus, you get years of rights to tease the friend about being such a charity case. (Well, if the relationship is at all based on sarcasm like it is with my friends anyway.)
Cheers Toadie! That wasn't crazy ... at least not in a bad way!
Did that same someone also delete all his characters in one of his drama queen fits of "quitting GW?"

Yeah, the beefcake knows
Eh, anyways... that give away was like 2 years ago (quite exactly, start of january 2009) and I was about to quit. Sadly I got myself a new computer and lost all of my screen shots, but I searched the web and think I found a screen of the gloomie:
http://img369.imageshack.us/img369/4...orkborkwq8.jpg
It's borkborkbork though and the sword is long gone (hack) and the shield.... as I said given to Eir Of Asgard who still has it. I also gave him an Echovald req8 tac. -3/hex 30hp along with it. Whatever, I have helped him a lot building his collection but I also made some good profit on him, and we're still quite good friends even if we don't really play anymore, so he deserves it.
On the req8 glooms, here's the theory: we figured out that although there's excessive UW farming going on no req8 glooms were brought onto the market. Not even bad mod ones. We only know of 2 (although there could be more), and both of those came on the market shortly after mid 2007. In mid 2007 there was the EotN-Release-Event - and we of course do not claim those gloomies dropped in Eotn, but during the days of the event strange thinks happened (regarding drops). Not only in EotN, but all over the game the drop tables seemed to be strange, dropping quite more req8 than usually.... so might sound strange, but nobody could proof me different so far.
greetings and happy new year
Kai
PS: It's short after 5 am I came home from new year party and I'm drunk.
PPS: Happy new year!
PPPS: Stuey won't get drunk, he must be a christian!
PPPPS: I think I had paid around 150eish for my req8 str. inscr. gloomz back than in autumn 2007 and it used to be my main shield. I even asked Eir to sell it back to me later at 1000e range or whatever, but he wouldn't. I appreciate that, because you'd never sell a present
PPPPPS: Chris the Carnage Runner is the biggest noob I've never seen. Serious.
PPPPPPS: Luny, are you a girl? Whatever - you's beautiful, wanna go date?
Good night!

Not the time of buying is relevant, but the time of dropping. If you get the seller to tell us when it dropped it would be great. Wouldn't surprise me if you proof me wrong, could be could be

And, I'm also curious to a r8 Gloom drop in DoA. A tactic one would be like.. Epic
If I find one, or a friend gets one, you'll be the first to hear of it^^

I'll have you know I'm actually not that bad anymore. I took some lessons in gaming from some local pros. I now understand clicking the mouse and using keys at the same time!

The first one is as I believe the term goes "oldschool", the Shadow Shield reminds me of back in the "oldschool", and the echo's, meh just havent gotten around to selling. Yes i know of a few still around with the old -3 mod but they are not 10% im willing to bet this is the last one. As someones said 20 times in this thread "prove me wrong".

Actually it is not the only one - I have one and have seen others - someone has a r8 shield with -5 20% which is actually rarer.

I know I also posted in the "Beloved collections" thread, but it deserves a spot here as well^^
If only someone could sell me a +10vSkeletons and +10vGiants shield to complete it
