First I would like to say, that I swear on all that's Holy, I have not photoshoped these images AT ALL. As you can see, there's a Rune of Superior Vigor (In Minor Form) and a Unidentified (?) Firey Sword Hilt. The Superior Vigor I don't have, I didn't trust that it's real so I didn't buy. But I actually found the Un-ID Sword Hilt. Is this some glitch or what but...it's pretty weird...

PS: You can PM me in game at Ezekiel Ascalon if you really want to see the sword hilt for yourself.

Unidentified fiery sword hilts you can get by salvaging unidentified fiery dragon swords. The rune seems a bit... odd, though.

im not a pro or anything,
but i no that u can get unidentified runes from usage an expert salvage kit on a weapon/armour without identifying it first.
im guessing that the fiery hilt is just a glitch, and if you use an iden kit it will simply unlock it for pvp.

the superior vigor is a rune from before the new rune update.

yes you can get unid runes from armors, however, it will show whether it is an unidentified minor, major or superior rune, and what class of rune it is (warrior, ranger, mesmer, ele, necro, monk or the vigor class)

i have to say that is very odd.

Right, like 4 months ago, before they introduced new graphics for the various runes. You cannot sell a rune like that to the rune trader, but you can put it in armor and get the full superior health bonus. Here's a little history lesson: eons ago when Guild Wars was brand new and the superior runes looked like that, superior vigor runes were the heart of the economy and used to secure trades and represent wealth. Anet introduced differentiating graphics for them to reduce scams, and so to have one of the old style is quite rare, and maybe even valuable if someone wants a little piece of GW history sitting around.
