[close] Q7, Q8, OS and pre

Hi! I'm really interested in your first bow, Mursaat Hammer and ghostly staff.

Once you have some estimates, don't hesitate to contact me so I can add them to my collections.

See you soon

The stormbow’s might go for 80-100a/ea. Depending if there’s a bidwar. You also have a prenerf sundering mod on the first one. Which is ~15a in itself.

I’m not a hammer guy so idk about that one.

The frost artifact is prenerf as well and might give you 5-10a.

The ghostly staff should also give you around 100a easily. The chrysocola is just merch

chrysocola is a dungeon exclusive skin. so without insc it might be worth some ecto

Nice items. Not up to date with prices anymore, but don't sell to pm's

yeah from my very distant memories, the chrysocola was either a bugged or legacy item considering that skin is from EotN which shouldn't be dropping OS items - wasn't 100% sure and i don't even really know how they got created in the first place, i'm just assuming it was a bug that's now been fixed?

afaik it has something to do with staves having the possibility of a creature slaying mod which can make them have no insc. its been fixed for martial weapons but staffs can still drop like that, although they are still an oddity.

this has been discussed elsewhere, but i cant find it right now. i think Red Fireball is more familiar with the topic

Nope, half fixed. It used to happen more often, associated with also having an undead mod. The unded bug was fixed, but sometimes random things that should be insc still aren't. (I've recently gotten a few dolyak prods no insc slot)

currently wondering if the sword is actually pre-nerf - i've been told it is, but after reading a whole lot on the drop research threads, i can't see why this one specifically would be

depending on its age the sword could be pre-nerf, however none of its stats have been nerfed. it could drop like this today, thus it is not considered pre-nerf.

theres a weird rabbit-hole of the damage a weapon does when its requirement isnt met, and a difference between pre- and post-nerf with that, however thats usually not taken into account when people talk about pre-nerf.

effectively your sword is not pre-nerf.

Usually a q8 weapon is pre-nerf when it’s gold value is anything more than 276.

RE: Weapons

q7 staffs above 11-20 are prenerf (listed above 11-21 here)

also q8 hammers 18-35 or bows 14-28 are prenerf

Also some staffs lacking HSR Mod do exist and are still available from collector/quest rewards, so not ALL, but most are prenerf

Also most staffs with lower dmg than 4-6 are prenerf (some q0 2-4, 3-4, 3-5 dmg staffs exist but no longer drop), some 3-5 available from collector/weaponsmith/quest reward

And well.. every gold q8 weapon/offhand/shield with higher gold value than 280g is prenerf…

Although, I found different references.. one said 280 and one said 276… either way.. this short swords gold value suggests it was dropped post-nerf.

You are welcome.. in the grand scheme of things.. a q8 is a q8 and sometimes players will pay more for x00 etc gold value but in most cases, it will be worth the same..
