I saw 2 green ele items drop.

One 20/20 Water Staff with a total of +15 Energy and +30 Health
and a water wand (I forget the stats)

(they both had fancy names that I forgot, but that is basically what they were)

Unfortunately all the green drops went to other party members and I got squat I'd really like that water staff as I have an ele that uses the collector's water staff right now, but it would be cool to have a green one!

Question... do these items give unlocks or are they already IDed when they drop?

I guess this just adds another "casual player" aspect to the game.

... great, i thought 2k is a bit too expensive, and now these swords are worth millions. GREAT. anyone wants to sell their +5 energy for .. 5k?

Are these swords gone for good? or just the ability to get them? if anyone finds it, be sure to post. the green stuff seems rather worthless, while the +5 energy sword was unique. oh well.

Sorry are you on drugs? how is this anything for a casual gamer? its going to be farmed to RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GO, so all the lite players have these items, then nerfed so only the elite have them and the casual gamer wonthave access to them anymore. Its going to be hard enough to even get to SF for me.

I don't know what you're talking about...How can they be farmed when they are guaranteed drops?? It's stupid to buy it when you can have it by doing the quests/killing the boss. And they won't be 'exclusive' because sooner or later everyone will have them which is good in my humble opinion.

Well, I only had an hour of playing time last night and due to the excitement that came with the update, seeing a new item drop caused me to ramble on about possibilities. If these are near-common drops, this will be a good thing for casual players that drift between PvE and PvP because it will keep those perfect weapons down in price.

My theory about these weapons is that each boss drops a weapon or off-hand item specific to their class and build. After a few days of playing, this fanbase should be able to confirm this.

HOT. So green is basically perfect weapons with at least 2 perfect modifiers.

Has anyone salvaged them yet to see if salvage works?

This is cool stuff, but it means that I will be stuck in SF for a while mining for green items. I killed like 10 bosses last night in one run but none of them dropped anything except for a white max water wand -_- just my luck

But, I still have my +5 energy Sword!! KICK ASS!!! Man, I should've gotten a ton in hindsight, hahaha. I really like it, too, it's been my main weapon for a while and I think that whenever I use a sword build I will stick to it.

A Guild member pulled a green staff or a wand that had +15 energy >50%

I don't recall it having a negative condition either. I'll back this up with a screenie if I see him on tonight.

yup they nerfed farming boo-hoo.

now you cannot sell your crappoy items for 100k wht a shame.

this new update is the best thing i could have asked for.

not only will everyone have access to the best stuff, but it should cleat the local channel from trade spam.

there will be no market for things anymore (at least a very reduced market)

could not have asked for more

Mwuahahahaha! I invested in 4 of them a few weeks ago thinking I could sell them in LA for around 5k and earn about 2k profit. No one wanted them. I was laughed at and ridiculed. They sat in my inventory and burned my backside over the ~15k wasted on them.

But now like a phoenix, they shall RISE FROM THE ASHES and I shall RECOUP MY LOSS!

Anyone want to buy one?

I was starting to run through my last couple of missions and got two purple Raven Staves, and I'd never gotten ONE before... and those ended up being among the least of the drops my guildies and I got last night. Seems as though drops are, in fact, better than they were.
