{MERGED} New Items!
Huntmaster
Ol' General Typhus and I were about to make a breakthrough and aquire a new green, then he fell asleep at his keyboard. Screens tomorrow! (I believe it's a ranger green, but seeing as Rotwing is necro and dropped a bow, who knows.)

Didn't they make them available in the SE? (Special Edition (not collectors)).

They could then go hunt for a green in their spare time, hold onto it for a month, then sell it when it can't be found anymore. That's neither hardcore nor farming, just simply smart trading.

Which is really what I was appealing to, the intelligent trader, not the time-wasting farmer. I hate grinding with a passion. Which is another reason I suggested this. If these items disappear, then new ones are randomly scattered, it becomes harder to farm. You have to allow for time to find the items, then figure out what the best way is to get these items on a regular basis.
These current greens will become so common in this market that these unique rare skins won't be so unique or rare anymore. Not that I care about that. I just like the idea of really rare, hard-to-find items. The treasure hunter in me

sorry, i cant remember its name, but the hammer that does cold damage might be a good 'prefix' if combined with Cojure Frost (for 60 seconds, if you're wielding a cold weapon, your attacks strike for an additional 1...13 cold damage). It might not work that well, but the Cold upgrade ist completly useless.
flankthetank
wow is the hammer farming even possible solo with a W/Mo ? i got there but got rolled while using the troll farming build.. any other builds i should try? W/Mo( Axe )

Does anyone know if the new green are the honorable mentions from the weaponsmith contest? And if so, does anyone know what other weapons have been decided to honorable mention?
KamikazeChicken
Yes, the weapon skins are those of the honorable mentions. No, Anet never released pictures of those honorable mentions, only the winners.

The easiest way to get the hammer and necro fan is to dou farm with 2 warriors.
One warrior must be a melee tank (Gladiator's defense, riposte, deadly rip, shields stance, defensive stance ,heal sig, dolyak, and sprint to get their.). the other Warrior must be a high dmg to run in and take out the all the casters (he also needs remove hex to take barbs off of the tank). I think he used whirling axe to take them down fast. We did this for a couple hours and I got 3 greens (2hammers and a fan), of course I did give one hammer to my friend.
After that we got bored and went to farm the FOW while it was still bugged. Only got a couple shards though.

or you could use a Spirit Bond monk build with elemental resistance to get the hammer...

you hate grinding, yet you do want/like "unique rare skins"? and i dont see how your idea would reduce farm time, as essentially ull spend a shitload of time finding the new greens..
sounds too much like the old "why is FOW armor so expensive, why isnt it cheaper" thing
anyway, theres nothing rare/expensive in gw anymore, only the good old serpent, crystalline, dwarven items, which are severely losing in value on general it seems
Ineffiable
I have to disagree with that.
Crystallines still seem like they have alot of value, with 15% while enchanted going for like 100 ectos+
Dwarvens are holding in value.
Serpents have enormous value as well, a 13% stance one went for 65 ecto a while ago.

I erased the build from the screen... but here it is anyway, I did not invent this build.. I just adjusted it:
[Arcane Echo]
[Vengeful was Khanahei]
[Vengeful Weapon]
[Soothing Memories]
[Ancestors Visage]
[Sympathetic Visage]
[Physical Resisitance]
[Resilient Weapon]
Restoration: 16 [12+1+3]
Illusion: 11
Inspritation: 8
Thats all I'll tell, there is more fun in finding the rest out yourself instead of becoming a farming machine...

Has anyone been sucessful with killing Rotscale duo? We can kill everything around him just fine, but cant do near enough dmg to even slightly wound him. What we do is typical 55 build with SS necro. Except that we get the necro 60% dp (superior runes work too), and let him tank. Monk is the key, setup is:
Shield of Judgement
Glyph of Lesser Energy
Healing Breeze
Protective Spirit
Mending
Essence Bond
Blessed Aura
Blessed Signet
Pretty much just stay barely in range of QZ, spam blessed signet for energy and keep SoJ, healing breeze, and prot up.
I have the necro tank, and try to keep blood renewal up. Don't forget you have to deal with 11 degeneration almost constantly. Necro can't really do much, its almost lucky to even get blood renewal up. But spiteful ect when you can.
