Your Beloved Collections

Nice job, Raining Ecto! Glad to see so many of our former swords in such a good home. I'm an especially big fan of the brute sword. It's really tough to beat a req 7 brute sword for old school awesomeness

Here are some req 7 swords that you guys left behind when Kabong and I had our big sell-off a few years back

So many nice items have been posted recently!

Really awesome job everyone!

So here I am, also posting some newly acquired gear for my new warrior!

Special thanks to EK for the Gothic Axe and to Raining Ecto for the sexy hammer!

Yours truly,

Xander (aka Pleikki Is Jealous)

Damn Xander those are beauty! and haha ur warrior's name fits here! Pleikki is jealous!

And when you thought everything already happened to you..... Something like this happens!

Thank you so much Pleikki!!!

Also I wanted to use this post as an opportunity to thank everyone who has helped me collect some great pieces of Guild Wars history. I would have never thought that I would meet such awesome people on a game, but yet here we are! All you guys are awesome!

Much love,

Xander (aka Pleikki Is Jealous, but Pleikki is also very generous... OMG still can't believe it!)

Just stumbled across this and remembered a long-ago conversation on Guru. For those of you who might be feeling scholarly...How to tell a collection from a hoard.pdf

...healthy and moral ordering...

My IW Mez's....hoard? He doesn't know why he needs these things but he does.

(I've been asked about the jeweled staves...they're the dual serp skin)

Not really much of a collection, but after looking for one for years, this finally dropped last night:

Blue, color of royals, what could be better then sets of nice blue items?

I've allways loved blue items and recently got some new additions to my favorite blues so decided post here my 4 favorite Blue sets

I've seen this chaos around in Kama recently. Not surprised it ends in your hands :p

These collections never seize to amaze me! All very incredible items that have been kept safe after all of these years. These are all hard acts to follow.

For those that know me, are aware that I have a variety of collections, whether it's prenerf, postnerf, or just stuff that makes collecting the fun that it is. I collect by the motto "I prefer to preserve", which is how I ended up with things that others wouldn't keep. I have been told by people to merch some of the things I have, however that doesn't change my mind set on what I keep. So here is a variety of pieces from some of the different collections I have.

I need to give a big thank you to many of you who have provided me some of the items that I have. I will always promise, they will be kept safe!

Really nice stuff you got there! Glad to see my stuff found a good new home! Also love the zodiacs!

Good job mate!:)

Guys, can we please all agree that Kabongs clean q8 swampclub is the most incredible item of all items ever to have seen the face of guild wars?

Kabong that thing is the stuff of legends dude.

There could be dozens of swampclubs but none ever to be as clean as that q8.

Praise teh lawd.

Quite a compliment from such a pioneer in his field (and former member of [PhD])!

Feel free to swing by the Hall anytime, or post up some stuff of your own...

Kabong

It broke my collector heart seeing this shield being resold right after EK sold it.

I couldnt help it when right moment came had to snap it to my collection aswell..

So here it is! My new Eternal shield! XD

-Pleikki

This way to the Northlands, right?

Didn't they say this gate would stay open longer??

(But seriously...holy crap they're working on the game! The ultra shadows and longer draw distance look awesome.)

Finally found the last Green bow to finish my collection!

And here's the entire collection of my Unique Bows, finally completed:

Edit: I apologize in advance, the picture seems to be too big for the website

since they are doin' stuff again maybe beg for a leprechaun hat xD

Coffee Man has shown us all the beauty of stuffing large quantities of green items into small spaces. This led me to re-examine green hammers and in this I found The Hammer of Justice. Had to have it, couldn't find it. Coffee gave me one (see my post in "How Did Guild Wars Treat You Today?") and that flipped a switch. I thank Coffee for his inspiration and generosity because, with them, I set out to collect all the green hammers.

It only took a week, thanks to a giving and responsive community. I thank everyone who helped along the way but, along with Coffee Man, a few warrant specific mention.

-Red Fireball donated a couple of hammers, including The Ugly Stick, one of my favorites.

-Kromp dug out an old Deldrimor Maul and forked it over. If you know him, you understand why I'm mentioning such a seemingly-small act. It was probably hard for him.

-Max Borken, Kev and Cosy run this part of the Guild Wars universe and support this website with their own time, effort and money. They deserve our thanks and more monetary support for this community resource than they currently receive. They give the game what it deserves - a beautiful place where parts of its history, traditions and community that would otherwise be lost can be preserved - and in this gives us all more than we have any right to expect. Max is also a friend and a guildmate who secured the manliest green of them all, Victo's Maul, for me.

-Finally, |Pyro Girl|. In my WTB thread I said I was hoping to make some new connections during this journey and I was happy to meet |Pyro Girl|. |Pyro Girl| collects all greens of all sorts and took an unanticipated interest in my little project. Multiple hammers were farmed and donated to me. |Pyro Girl|'s knowledge of, and devotion to, her chosen corner of the GW universe is something to behold.

TL;DR: THANKS EVERYONE! I GOT ALL THE GREEN HAMMERS. HERE THEY ARE:

You are both a nuisance and a burden.

Kabong u still need Roaring Earth

Wtf is a roaring earth and why isn't it on any list of greens I found? Pleikki Get yourself to wiki and so on and fix that junk. Dammit lol😆

Thanks for the heads up...are there more I don't know about???

Edit, read about it. Wtb roaring earth. Or wait til next year??

You need to wait Till next anniversity And get one urself, prepare to do some missions!

Well done matey, now go customize the greenies! I'll even donate the 390g since you're probably broke now from finishing the collection

Not gonna lie. This brought a tear to my eye. A manly, hammer shaped tear, but a tear nonetheless.

Freaking amazing stuff going on folks.

Great too actually see Kabong and kromp active on the forums, i definetly would love to meet both someday in their manly mansuite armchaired brandy sippin lounge, aka the hall.

I have been thinking of a New project for collecting which ill definetly start working on once ill get a new Pc.

(AMD Ryzen 5, 8g ram, gtx 1050 ti 4g) =)

I have loved 8-requirement +5 energy hammers as long as they have existed. My love for the idea of collecting them has not been so steadfast. The current collection bears the scars of that conflicted decade-long relationship. If you look hard enough you will see the gaps, gashes and holes which I hope to fill through my current search (see WTB thread) for those that are missing. You'll also find some pretty sweet hammers. My favorite is subtly highlighted. Enjoy...and share.

Epic stuff brother.

But that Tetsubo makes me so hard... lol

Oh my days.

Short arms, short bows.

Woo

Heya people, good to see gwguru team still active

Recently i have logged in and got PMed by an old friend to maybe post some of the old stuff here that I had. So I did some folder digging and gathered my favorites.

I do not have most of these items for years, some even for a decade. I guess that some of these ended up on the accounts of the members here, others are on the dead ones...just not to forget some of the beauties

Honestly, out of all these items, i regret selling +5e sephis, +5e serpent axe and q8 dwarven. Since the sale I have not seen sephis and serpent, and i have no idea where they are now(but maybe some of you do:))

In the end, Guild Wars had/have the most amazing trading community that I have even seen in some multiplayer game, and I am glad that at some point I was a part of it.

Best regards & keep rockin',

Serbian Angel

Hey Buddy! Miss ya been way too long!

Anyhow, Maybe ur memory serves u wrong but sephis wasnt really rare in q9-13 since 2006 can easyly get such! ;P

Hope to see you ingame tho! your one of few whove hang on my flist since like 2009 without me catching you

Btw 3 of those items are now on my account
