Ajantis
Serpent axe 3-5 damage

Lots of posts about the tri-class items. Why is a three class mod item weird? They really do happen a lot, as drop mods are randomly generated and having multiple lines on an item is allowed. Just a matter of probablity.
Weirdest item is probably monstrous eye. Not sure what it is for or why costs so much

I got a long bow
damage +10% while in stance
received dmg -2 while in stance
Too bad it isn't max dmg

Poison Ivy
I got a +10% always blue Pickaxe the other day that was max dmg.
Best blue I've ever seen.

To be more specific, he/she means. that the +5 Energy has a Req, and the -5 Energy DOESNT. This means that as long as you do not acheive the req, you will be subtracting 5 energy from your total. This is a VERY usefull item for Casters in PvP while they face Energy drainers, Denials, because they can just switch to a regular weapon once they are gone and gain...
+5 Energy from taking away -5 energy icon
+5 Energy from taking away -5 energy weapon
+15 Energy from equiping an Insightful weapon
In an instant you go from 0 Energy to 25 energy and can cast again, instead of having to wait for your energy to recharge.
-5 Energy icons like these sell for around 5k in Lions Arch last time I tried to sell mine.

It's largely correct, because when not meeting the requirement, you will still gain 3 energy from the off-hand. So in fact you have a -2 energy icon then. And that's only if it's blue, if it's gold/purple this doesn't fly and you will gain energy from the off-hand no matter what.
peace,
Makk.
ps: it's 'he' for further postings

I've never heard of anything like this - now I can cause massive damage to plants.
A Guildie of mine found a Shadow Shield in FOW that a Death Magic +1/11% chance mod on it too. Weird |
NO! my fire wand beats your bow! went to FOW, got a gold wand from chest. i was happy, but listen to stats! hahaha
fire dmg 11-22, req 10 air(!?),
+1 earth (9%),
halves skill recharge on water (15%)
me and my bro had a good laugh

Hmmm. Posted this earlier, but didn't see it.
The Brute Sword: I was like "Yeah! I got a Brute Sword!" Then I IDed it. The 2% is just plain insulting. I guess I have to hit the monster like 50 times to see some benefit.
The Shocking Hammer of Giant Slaying: The mod is fine for fighting giants, but the low damage on the hammer (especially on a yellow item) negates the effect since max damage for a hammer is up to 35.
The Insightful Jeweled Staff: I've been seeing a lot of items for cross professions, but this benefits three attributes for a mesmer. It also has a cool skin with two serpent heads on a fork.
Fiery Dragon Sword: This has now happened twice to me. No mods after IDed (except the obvious fire one). I also found a low damage one with a mod against skeletons.

Moa Bird Cultist
Weirdest was a req12 Aegis with armour 16 and Tactics +1 (16%)
Needless to say, I still have this one.
Also, I had a tall shield, req10, Armour +16, Armour +8 vs Skeletons and Curses +1 (19%)
I gave that one to a guildmate of mine as thanks for lending me some money one time.
Got both of them from the old griffons outside Augury Rock.

Instead of the pruning thing. Also, I hope they change the soulreaping items to have something different instead of 20/20 improves casting time and recharge. Here's another one however.

Weirdest thing I've seen is those triple Req. staves. So weird and useless.
DeadlyFred
Well heck... wish I would've known there was a demand, even if the use of them sounds a little cheap to me, heh...
I had a Chakram the other night that was +5 Energy with the Enchantment +5 Armor, -5 Energy.

personally if i need/want to tank on a ranger i would unlikely be weilding a bow for any length of time, shield and +5 al sword/axe would work much better
since this is not max damage, u'd be sacrificing well over 2 damage a hit to save urself 2 damage a hit so it's not so good for fighting, but i'm sure there's the odd situation that this bow could provide an advantage, but i've been up for far too many hours to come up with it right now

I wonder how much something like this might be worth to the right buyer...:
Aegis
+16 Armor (req. 7 Tactics)
Illusion Magic +1 (20% chance while casting spells)
Received Damage -2 (while in a stance)
