Yes! I have an ogre slaying knife that has +9 damage vs. ogres!

It would seem that way. Sadly, the Knife will likely still be worthless, from it's low damage. Still hanging on to mine hoping, though. .... Ok, you got me. I really just can't find anyone who will pay more than 1k for it. 
How'd I miss out when they were going for like 30k+?

Ogres originated from asian culture so don't be surpised if they are in c2.

it's actually a joke item (hence the low damage) but heres the mention of it on Guildwiki..
http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Ogre-Slaying_Knife
Guild wiki was broken when i checked it, so heres what it says if it still broken.
a confirmation of future Ogre's in the game has yet to be announced.

The Dmg +9 (vs. Ogres) property is purely cosmetic, as there are currently no monsters of the ogre species in Guild Wars. This weapon is a reference to an audio skit made by the Dead Alewives, a comedy group. In the skit, which is about Dungeons & Dragons, one character proudly announces that he has such a knife - "It's got a plus nine against ogres!" This skit was reproduced in the game Summoner by Volition and, more recently, by 8-bit Theatre fans under the title 8-bit D&D |

I think many of us were aware of that (I love guildwiki), but the OP's reference to an actual weapon mod. vs. ogres indicates that they are likely to be present. Anybody check if it was those hunchback things with the giant boil's on their back/necks (sorry I forgot the name)?
Hence why I think ogres are likely, but the Ogre Slaying Knife will stay a "worthless" joke.

I don't believe those boil people were Ogres. I have some screenshots of when I was fighting them, but they are on my other computer. I'd have to come back to this thread in a couple days to tell you the truth.

Will we ever see any monsters that would knock us flying? Hope so.
and Ettin are... ettin. They aren't giant as it was proven by some people out there. Not ogre either.

Ettins are TROLLS. You CAN get trollslaying mods, you know...
Cjlr
Err... actually, ettins are ettins. You can indeed get trollslaying mods, but they will be useless against ettins. What you want is an ettinslaying mod...

I'm not positive, but i thought the group of monsters in the begining of FPE were ogres. (the one eyed dudes right out of the city) they may have been ettins but i thought it said ogres...

Im looking forward to dragons.. since I have this weird obsession with them, and the rest of the oriental culture. I also had Mandarin lessons for 2 years, and went to China for 3 weeks- GW:factions and the new range of pets are going to be great

The Oni are a type of demon from Asian mythology. I don't recall any Oni-slaying items (there are Oni weapons, i.e. Oni daggers), but I did find demon-slaying weapons which I'm almost positive have bonus damage vs. the Oni. 30K for an Ogre knife?? Prices are way too inflated in this community as it is. Personally I wouldn't pay more than 3K for any item in the game. Period. It is way more exciting to fight my way through the hordes and have a green item flop out unexpectedly. Sometimes it's a total bust, other times it's a bonanza. My wife had 3 green items drop in HoH last night (the lucky jerk), one of which was the Ogre knife which she promptly sold for 35g. No sweat.

Someone tell me the stats of this knife.

To relate the creations of the GW productoin team to that of traditional Asian myth, is just foolish. Who knows if the production team even took into account the historical background behind Ogres, Oni, or Demons? The point is, don't judge the tid bits of information revealed so far about Factions, with history. I mean, come on Factions isn't even out yet...

I believe that they just took the names of the monsters, and maybe used the historical stuff as models for how they behave.

man, guildwiki, what a useless site, that site never works.
