Q8 inscribable swords,shields,focus
Q8 old school swords,shields,focus

Those all still drop, however:

The rest of the q7/8 items no longer drop in a provable manner.

q8's yes, q7's no. you also can only get q8's from NM and they're *Very* rare of a drop. the q7's were originally bugged drops i think and they patched that a while back so they can't drop anymore. usually with these q7's and q8's you see double stance mods or triple modded items you can't obtain naturally through the game as well.

Q8s drop. Q7s drop

but if you are asking about max q7s then i dont think so. mostly just shields that are like q7 15 ar.

I know q8 focuses drop b/c i got a max q8 death focus like a month ago

Q7's haven't dropped since around NF launch. No confirmed date obviously. Q8's. Sword Focus Shields yea. Not from chests though. No r8's from chest since roughly NF launch as well.

I used to have a pretty amazing q7 collection. Havent seen one drop in several years. I do however get inscribable and non inscribable q8's with max energy, damage, or whatever associated attribute daily. Some purple, some blue, some gold.

Like a couple of people said:

q8 drops, but only Swords, Shields and Focus Items.

Also, see this thread on stat ranges by req.

Q8 gold max swords, shields and foci still drop from chests. Normal Mode chests in Kaineng, Kourna and all over EotN are where they drop. Plenty of screenshots in Trader's Outpost and some in the chestrunner's thread, suprised you haven't seen them.

Some q8 inscribable items that exist are physically impossible to drop from foes but they can drop from the chests. e.g. the two summit shields that can drop as q8 from nm locked chests in eotn. The stone summit are lvl24+ so can't possibly have generated them but chests that spawn near them can (since they are lvl20).

I was not aware of this. Last time the q8 topic came up was years ago and a bunch of us went out and tested it for weeks. Nothing came up from chests ever. I stand corrected though. I did not know of this development.

That link shows that swords with a q7 can't be max. Is that only for a gold? I have a q7 that's max. It's nothing special, not inscribable but I like it. The health mod was originally either 21hp or 24hp but I can't remember which.
