Old returning player lost about items

  • I haven't played in a very long time. Looks like 7-15 years on my characters based on gifts accumulated. All have pretty full inventories of items. Mostly purples, some gold, think I saw some greens. And I don't what to do with them. I'm afraid to salvage or sell anything until I what's useful and whats not. I've been reading for 3 hours trying to learn what I can. I think I know what OS is and the prefixes and stuff. I didnt find anything about skins or rare older items. Most everything I found is years old too. Can anyone point me in the right direction on where to go to learn more about this stuff?

  • Check these two sections and first use some time for own research to get a first feeling yourself:

    - Price Check

    - Research: gear stat ranges & pre-nerf.

    Whatever is pre-nerf holds value guaranteed.

    Postnerf is a more difficult story, here more depending on skin rarity and usefulness (stats).

    After checking put whatever you think holds value in a Price Check thread.

  • Well you make it yourself a bit easy to just say someone should write a guide on a matter.

    If you would apply this to all subjects and issues in your life, instead of investing some time, effort and willingness yourself to really understand the root of the cause: then I am sorry for the people/friends/family/colleagues around you.

  • lol I'm not currently qualified to write that guide just yet, since I have no idea what all these terms and abbreviations mean. Maybe some day.

    I didnt say you should write a guide. I just said you should make some research on your own before screaming for 100% perfect guides that serve all solutions on a silver plate.

    Anyways, poster above sent a video, maybe you find your valuable time to watch it.

  • Prenerf

    this is the category for prenerf. up top there is 4 pinned guides to cover the essential topics of prenerf items.

    what are the abbreviations you struggle with? maybe start a thread here: Q&A to clear the general questions first to be able to understand all the gw talk ;D

    I WTB all kinds of Tower Shields and Defenders. I do drop research - if you find anything remarkable or want to see the results - check the thread or send a pm!
