Is it posible to find a sword whit the +15%dmg bonus whitout the -5energy ?

No, every weapon that has x damage always has something bad about it.

Pretty sure +15% weapons are all with a catch, may it be 'while hexed', 'while in stance', 'while enhanced', '-5 energy' or whatever mod. Apparently there was a +15% 'always', but those don't drop anymore atleast.

I guess they still exist but - if they do - they are not traded on any sort of regular basis.

What do Hod sword stand for ?
Esrever
They dropped from bugged chests in one of the desert areas for a little while after release. If you can find one that isn't customised, expect to pay an insane amount of money for it.
Maximus84
Ok, but whats so special about them exept that they are rare.. ?

Neither have a negative penalty.
Stealthy Trapper
Any WEAPON with +15% always will have either; -1 energy regen. pip, -5 energy, or -10 armor while attacking. If any +15% weapons ever existed with out a negative side then good luck because chances are they won't be for sale anymore.
RotteN
also, back in the early days, a zealous mod would overwrite the -1 nrg regen from the weaponmod, resulting in a "15% always" zealous weapon.

if not someone else may whis to answer my question.

There is a screenshot, right here on these boards, showing a sword that is +14% always with no penalties whatsoever. It might show up in search. These weapons did exist, but were discontinued.
Jetdoc
No, the HoD sword is a normal 15-21 damage sword with a permanent +5 energy modifier to it. That's it - no damage modifier at all.

What they are referring to is items that existed right after GuildWars was first issued a year (or more) ago. Those items were discontinued prospectively, but some items still exist from those that saved them from way back when.
Because they were eliminated prospectively right after Guild Wars was issued, there are probably less than 100 in existance that were not customized. That's why they are so dang expensive.

I don't know for swords but i have a bow +15%, armor-10 when attack.
Two April Mornings
these 15% swords are well known, and do have negative conditions.
i myself only know of two unconditional 13% always swords and of one 15% always swords that are still floating around. They are worth millions.

When people refer to "always" nowadays, they usually mean the +15% plus a condition: -5 Energy, -10 armor (while attacking), Health regeneration -1, or Energy regeneration -1.
However, there are the "unconditional" ones too. Some were dropped at the game's release without any penalty. In addition, some early Energy regen -1s were bugged in that you could put a Zealous prefix on them and only one -1 would show. Both were fixed and are now collector's items. Relevant old link; yay my search is back!
I have a req. 6 max Sickle +17% unconditional if you're interested.

I myself saw a +damage -armor on a sword once but it wasn't 15% sword.

P.S. No wonder people question my knowledge when I lie with the same punctuation with which I tell the truth.
Skuld
I used to have a +14% -10 armour whilst attacking bow but it was flat and req 12 =p
Nice Mind
somewhere i hide some Falcion / whatever ...
req.8/9/10
15% allways and -1 hp reg ....
I would say they are simply the best O.o
If u meet a spot, where u stay peaceful without shooting/slashing ... just swap to normal -.-
And eye in eye with any spike or whatever .. what matters this -1 ??

Code:
Low req = low damage. Don't buy any of Savio's less than common items, save up for a req 13 or so sickle. You'll actually feel the difference while you fight.

However, having more points in the related attribute (swordsmanship, for example) will obviously increase damage output. This is what you are confused with.
Thus, in both the situations below, you will be dealing the exact same damage:
* Wielding a 15-22 Req7 sword, and having attribute level 12 in swordsmanship
* Wielding a 15-22 Req11 sword, and having attribute level 12 in swordsmanship

IMO 15(-10 armor while attacking) is best conditional all the time mod. add a +5 armor pommel and its not that bad...if you are a war that is that concerned about defence...
Blaster The Warrior
yeah indeed i agree on that
* Wielding a 15-22 Req7 sword, and having attribute level 12 in swordsmanship
* Wielding a 15-22 Req11 sword, and having attribute level 12 in swordsmanship
very true.
* Wielding a 15-22 Req7 sword, and having attribute level 12 in swordsmanship

Just to clear this up, the Sickle that is shown above is a joke, people... just a joke. Now please excuse me while I go change the turn-signal fluid in my car...
