This is true. I just got one, saw a few others drop. They come from 3 level 30 mesmer bosses at the end of the 'new' UW accessible in tombs and seem to drop for all classes, but I only got a screenshot of the one I picked up.

From what I understand, new bosses,''somewhere'', that give new greens drops. An update similar to the ''IDS'', they want to get as many people crazy over Guild Wars, so they can get more sales for the new ''Faction's''. Smart move from Anet.

When I was there, there were 3 level 30 mesmer bosses right together iirc they were called Darknesses, or something very close to that. Each dropped one or two new greens (for various classes, not just mesmer) when killed.

The owner said it dropped in Tombs for him. Wonder if it's a new green from Sorrow's Furnace?

Yeah, it has to be validated, blah blah, but I saw it with my own eyes, got the screenie, and the truth will be known as truth soon enough.

Edit: If a MOD and ONLY a MOD will PM me, I'll give the owner's IGN. I doubt he wants to be spambarded by 40,000 drooling fanboys.

I have seen two mesmer-items too, one staff and one off-hand item.

The off-hand was called something with mirror.

Off-hand = fast casting
staff = domination

Sorry, don't have a screen of it .

The new greens drop in the new entrance to UW, which is in Tombs of Primeval, they used the areas of the Tombs as battlegrounds now..

Yep, they've made it so that you can't solo

That green axe looks nice, even if it is very similar to the Tanzit's Cleaver I have (I don't care about skins).

So wait, to make sure I have everything clear.

There is now a second entrance to UW at tombs? Is it the same UW we are used to or a new UW or just a different entry point within UW?

If it is from Tombs, it is a PvE area right? I don't have to do a PvP group to get the new greens?

The new bosses truly do hose up the 55s I think. It won't be long before someone figures out a way around it, but I think it not only hosed them but others as well. Sure there are other ways to work the underworld, but it is hard enough with a normal group.

So if there are new bosses, do they have the new elites to cap?

The new greens sound so sweet - that area is super hard though... I'm gonna have to practice up so that I can get a bit further in tombs me thinks.

Thanks, that sort of answers my question... I forgot to mention that, not being a pvp player at all, I have never been in tombs. :embarrass:

The PvP arena that used to be at tombs got moved to Battle Isles. Tombs is now a PvE area that has 4 maps, the first starting with UW?

Sorry to be so thick headed. I am at work and can't see any of this yet and am excited ...and don't want to play pvp to get the cool new stuff.

While the market is an important piece of the game, I think it is not as important as actual game play. I like that they added these highly sought skins with perfect mods. It helps bring down the rediculous prices that are being paid and asked for these items.

Sure they brought it upon themselves by making them so rare to start with but I am sure there will be new replacement uber rare items from the expansion.

I do not state this out of sour grapes, I have purchased and sold my share of rare items, so it isn't a case of "you say that because you can't afford them."

There will still be a market for these items because the greens are not modable, which is what a lot of people are complaining about now and saying that green items are dead (see green item price guide last few pages). So someone who doesn't necessarily want a sundering sickle of fortitude will still pay for a good max dmg sickle that can be modded, but the price will become such that more people can afford them.

I have found, if nothing else, that this game is well balanced. If something now ruins the profits of those who have been gaining from them, trust that there will be something else to take its place in the not too distant future.

Change is good

I'm sorry but QQ more. PvP players have the drops from Heroes Ascent, you have the drops from the new Tombs. I'd say that was pretty fair, wouldn't you? Not to mention farming a PvE area is ever so slightly easier than taking and holding HoH.
