Not possible, +1 to an attribute is a wrap and you can't have two wraps. You must mean recharge or casting speed.

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 .

Now someone tell me how that is useful at all? I salvaged it almost instantly; couldn't stand to look at those evil stats any longer than a second or two...

It did look cool though
If it is was blue, I would have taken it of your hands. It's called hiding energy against energy drainers.

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.

Yes, this is largely correct, thanks for giving a more detailed explanation.

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.

This easily wins the prize. Assuming this isn't photoshopped, iit is a huge error and very very weird.

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
hahahaha!!!!!!
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.

Hmmm. I'm really suspecting that these three req/mod items are for IW mesmers/? using arcane mimicry.
