Hey again,
Thanks to this thread I wanted to start collecting. So I did, I acquired over 20 shields with the +1 attribute and +xxhp mod combo. I never knew why these shields attract me so much, but they just do.
I came across some real nice ones allready, but about a week and a half ago Xander posted an update on his collection. In those screens, I saw a shield that made my heart skip a beat. I knew I had to have it, but how. First idea was to add him to my friendslist ingame, so when he came online I could contact him. Then a little later, someone pm'ed me. I didn't know who it was (I didn't check my fl), but he asked what I would offer for an Exalted Aegis req 8 tac with +1 Healing Prayers (Chance 19%) and +30hp. Then it hit me, it was Xander.
I was shocked to get offered this amazing shield (and I'm not going to lie: under the influence of the drug the Netherlands are famous for). So weirdly enough I low-balled him. Ofcourse he declined my offer. I hated myself for that stupid mistake, now he might never want to sell it to me. I still asked what his price was, he told me what he'd sell it for luckily, I saw that as a ray of hope. I might not have screwed up completely.
I was some ecto short of his price. So I told him I would borrow the remaining amount from friends. Then he made my heart fall to my stomach. He wasn't sure if he wanted to sell it. I got so freaking nervous. He said he'd pm me the next day on guru. So ofcourse I hardly slept and checked guru every 15 minutes. A few days past and still no message, but I didn't want to pressure him or do anything else which could harm my chances on acquiring the shield. So I kept my mouth shut, until I couldn't take it anymore and messaged him on Guild Wars. He told me he allready made a choice and he posted it on my buy thread..... Which I had payed zero attention to, since I was so occupied with this deal. On the thread he had posted (one day later as he promised me): It's yours, pm me ingame..............
I jumped through the roof. I couldn't believe it. Ofcourse I made sure to make the trade happen a.s.a.p. So then, all of a sudden, I owned one of the most awesome shields (in my opinion
) I had ever seen. I knew I was going to use this shield on my monk, so I had to get a weapon what would fit with the exalted skin, a combo I always had problems with. With an uninscr. Crystalline Sword +5e out of the picture, Xander turned my attention to the Gemstone Axe. Which turned out to be an amazing fit. Ofcourse I couldn't use the mere q13 one I had allready, it had to be req8 or maybe req 9. Xander pointed out to me that Aris had a req 8 +5e one in his thread.
So today, not much more then one hour ago. I acquired the final piece in my new set for my favorite character: my monk, Emma Of Love. Ofcourse I needed the extra 20% damage. So I went to the weaponsmith immediatly and payed him 10 gold to make this axe truly my own.
I know it isn't as great as some of the stuff posted here, but to me, it beats everything. Thanks again everyone for inspiring me and a special thanks to Gentleman Xander. I will post the rest of my +1 attribute shields later.

P.S. Emma of Love was first called Emma W S, so that's why it says: Customized for Emma W S.

Hey everyone,
So as promised my +1 Attribute/xx% with +xx/hp or +xxhp^ench shields collection + my low lever characters with cool armors, just for the fun of it.
Thanks Xander for my pride and joy: the req 8 healing exalted
Thanks EK for giving me the only other req 8 in my collection and a few others shields you gave me.
Thanks Buzan for selling me my first req 9 one off. The protection GotH. I believe you later gave me some others too.
Thanks Shadowfell for selling me the only perfect shield in my possession.
Thanks everyone else who sold me these amazing type of shields.
I will keep collecting since I still miss a lot of attributes and you can never have enough attribute shields imo.
However I need money to keep collecting so how about you all go check out my sale thread and buy some of my stuff.
I'd love to hear what your favorites are within my collection.

Looks good Emma,
Been a while since iv seen a decent group of attri shields, especially the GoTH and Plague are so close to be a "million dollar" shield.
Had myself some, but exchanged that collection for my current one.
Looking forward on what perfects you will pursue and/or aqcuire.
Zeph.
Edit : sold not long ago a shield set of +1/20 Heal, Divine, Protection & Smiting with -2^ench in req 9, to an anonymous buyer for a 4 digit number.
Morale of the edit, they would have been a perfect addition for your collection if I knew you were after those : /.

I saw you selling them and I was interested. Unfortunately at the time I didn't have the funds to even think of an offer. It's a missed opportunity, but missing out on yours saved me the ecto I used to buy Xander's Exalted. So not too sad I couldn't add them to my collection.
Enchanted Krystal
Awesome work Emma!!!
You got some serious collecting skillz. I love those two Exalted's the most.

this is what ive been collecting casually over the course of 1 year and a half, logging in about an hour a month. i'll be taking a hiatus from actively searching for more q7s as there isn't much on offer ingame and on guru these days. thanks to all the people who sold me the swords lately!
Enchanted Krystal
Epic Q7 swords bro, it's a shame I don't get to catch you online much anymore. Even tho we same timezone. Thanks for everything you have done for the community.

Here are some you may remember...
Good thing Kabong and I didn't customize them. This way, they can be used to skewer kabobs for the guild BBQ.

It seems that Krompdown Incorporated should tender a merger/acquisition proposition for Raptors [inc] r7s. Or perhaps the other way round.... Those platinum blades need to be in the same display cabinet in our guildhall.
Captain, I can lend you my acquisitions/mergers legal team if yours have all retired....

With all I had left, I wanted to do something i'v never really attempted before in my entire ''collector's life'', and I especially wanted to do it right.
Which is ofcourse : A Real Bad-Ass Seal of Approval, Warrior Set.
This will be my final post regarding ''collection updates'', i'v (luckly) had the chance to aqcuire exquisit relics and oddity's this year.
Thanks too everyone who helped to build my dream in gw.
With thanks too Aris for letting me purchase his shield.
And real bigtime props and thankyou too this epic gangsta gentlebro, and usual suspect Mr.Qc

Zephyr of Light.
That is your finest hour in my humble opinion. That is indeed a badass warrior set, and a set that I would be proud to own and show off. Congratulations on acquiring those. You should be very proud.
Max
Ps. I was considering a move for that shield too, but as I already have a few of those, it would have been decadent on my part
I'll re-post my stuff in a few days. There's been a lot of transfer activity since my last complete update in March. Couple of star players in, and a few out too. An update is probably due.

You really do have a beautiful set, Zeph. That shield is a relic of ancient Tyria.
And Raptors' plat blade is certainly a thing of beauty.
Thanks, Max, for offering to loan me your acquisitions team but I'm afraid the pain of raising funds for the team's compensation would outweigh the pleasure of re-acquiring that sword at this point. Kabong and I have many req 7s (15^50, +5e, and stance...sold the 15/-10, 15/-5, enchanted, and even 15/-1 swords long ago,
some of which you're seeing on display here again). I only posted those 4 canthan ones because there seemed to be particular interest in them. If I was going to put down my brandy and get back to work, it would probably be for very heavy reasons...

After months, I finally have deemed my weapon set worthy of posting in the collectors thread. And at that, there was only 1 place in guild wars worthy of taking a screenshot of such an elite and 1 of a kind weaponset - Hall of Heroes. (I don't think anyone else has screened there hahaha).
I was presented with the opportunity to buy this sword (a sword I have ALWAYS wanted to hold in my hand) in kamadan, due to an unfortunate event. Many of you have heard the story. *I did not hack Coast, I would never do such a thing. Just saying. Anyways, I had 0 ecto and 0 platinum on me, so first I would like to thank Danny (Lord Asakurra) for loaning me 1000e so I could pay this guy his price for the sword and then being patient with me paying you back. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have this now.
I struggled to find a shield that I deemed worthy of being in the same weapon set. Then one day, I realized. I took a little while getting one, but alas, the weapon set is finally complete.
Anyways, I'll now show you what Buzan can do for you - I present what is in my eyes, one of the top 10 weapon sets in guild wars - THE q8 Colossal AND one of those bugged Mursaat Shields, because we all know I like bugged items ;P.
