New Items
Spartan2
Well what have you guys found so far? First time out of the Deldrimor War Camp, a Green item dropped. It was a mesmer staff named Gorrel's Staff, max damage and I think it was an Inspiration or Illusion staff. It was already a 10/10 yet it had not been identified. Do you guys think these are set items like in Diablo2? Set bonuses for partial or complete sets as well? Let's hear what you think. Please get a screenshot to back this up if you have seen this as well. I forgot to take one. . .

Update notes mentioned green items are from bosses and are named after the boss. Not part of sets like D2. attributes may vary depending on drop so we will have to see if they remain good or lean towards a mixed worthy or uselss drop.

That sounds a lot like the people of Diablo II who "forget" to take screenshots...
But they are real?

Nice, so these are essentially "Unique Items" then? This is great! Items with perfect stats for the win!
Ahh . . . Silly me! I must have skipped over that paragraph will excitedly reading through the update notes. /doh
Well, now PvE characters do not have an excuse to compete in PvP. The playing field has been leveled!
Eh, btw, Racthoh, it was during a fervent battle as the newbs ran towards the chest so they could use their keys and then every died, we ressed and someone decided to map.

I personally think that they are sets of some sort, because one of my guildmates found a Green Cane, with Korvath or something in its name, and later someone in Droknars had Korvath's Chakram. I don't know what would happen if they are combined though.

I thought about it but havent tried it.

Just tried.
Those old upgrades still count, you'd replace them if you added a new one.

One and Two

I posted my drop in the etc. trade forum, it was the "yakslapper" 20% fast recharge with prot spells, mana+5, fast recovery from weakness, and enchants last 20% longer. Pretty nifty drop if you ask me.

On the note of items, has anyone checked out the new weapon merchant and collector's weapons? I've noticed a few shields with 2 bonuses on them.
On a sadder note, the +5 energy sword from HoD is no more.

Droknars selling 15 over 50 swords. Nice.

Seems like green items are just max numbers. Makes it easier on the PvE'ers, but luckily, nothing to ruin PvP.

The advantages to the green items appear to be that they're always perfect and that they have a chance to have the same mod twice (possibly a bug, although I don't think it really affects balance so I say leave it in if it is).
One and Two
actually, you could have had the same mod twice before. i have a gold necro staff with two armor+5 mods, from before sf. but its was only some mods. i think they increased the different amounts and types of mods there are...maybe.

When I saw green items, I thought, FUDGE, GOLD ITEMS SUCKS NOW...and i think its true.
but then again, I dont think u can salvage the upgrades from the green items, SO HAHAHAHAHAHA! Upgrades should still be worth something........
if the poster was right taht u can change upgrades, then it means ppl will still seek to upgrade perfect upgrades. exmaple: change defensive to fortitude.
both green staves were necro staves... so no ele boss = no ele staff. so ele staff will still be worth something IF there are indeed no ele bosses. ihope there aint no ele boss becaue i just payed HELLA for a 10/9 improve cast/skill recharge air stafff. that was like my life savings.
now gold items will only be useful for the perfect upgrades.
I HOPE GREEN ITEMS CAN NOT BE SALVAGED (someone wanna try it out ? HAHA =P)

i dont think it matters if they can be salvaged, as the mods are already perfect...if you wanna change it you still mod it though. green looks cooler than gold, too. =)

the ele boss is a red ice golem.
Also, the green items seem to keep a few abilities constant, but vary others. For example, the Yakslapper can have quick recovery to many conditions, but always seems to keep the 20/20 prot. Also, requirements are variable as well from what i've heard.
