GW gear stat ranges

Red Fireball · December 11, 2016 at 10:58 PM

Do you wonder what the game's currently dropping maximum and minimum possible damage, energy, armor, etc. for each requirement level are? We do, too! Let's keep notes!

Please post pictures so I can add the numbers into the table and the community has a way to verify it this way

q3 - q13 still drops in gold
q0 - q13 still drops in purple
q0 - q12 still drops in blue and white
min DMG for a purple q0 is higher than for a blue/white q0

min DMG for a gold q3 is higher than for a purple q3

Notes:

This is a work in progress showing the max and min stats we've found so far for drops by requirement. If you find a better version, post us a screenshot and tell us when and where it dropped!
Please be detailed when posting a new record here! We need the stats (of course) and the roughest time of it dropping (before or after the big nerf around realease of nightfall?) Ideally you have a screen of the item while laying fresh on the floor still assigned to your character.
Even junky white, blue and purple drops may show us info on the actual minimums and maximums in the game's programming, so keep an eye on those and feel free to post shots.
Pay attention to both the min and max damage listed, as there may be multiple records for any given req. (For example, 6-22 and 7-21 for the q5 axe.) Staves are a special case, as they have three built-in stats: HSR, energy and damage. Even if your staff has only one stat that breaks a current record, please post it.
We will list the best and worst stat(s) we find for each req level. If you get an item drop with the same stats as are already pictured here be happy and a) keep them as a fun reminder or b) merch them instantly as you hit the low part of the record or c) sell to some crazy UW/DoA/whatever farmer, who will pay you thousands for it
For items which still drop today, there is no difference between inscribable and inherent sources when it comes to the range of stats for any given requirement level.
Thanks a lot to Luny for starting and taking care of this thread over the first 1.5 years!

Thanks to everyone who helps out!

If you notice mistakes or have suggestions for improvements, please feel free to let me know!

Personal ToDo:

Make clear we look for post nerf

list prenerf maxes properly

I believe this takes the prize for lowest-damage axe -

It dropped in Presearing, from either a level three Bandit Blood Sworn or the bandit called Alain, who is also level three.

Dammit.. this is mind blowing... wish you'd have left it unid, but too late. It dropping from your sources (bandits/alain) seems unlikely yet possible. Is it possible it came from a hidden stash or an innocent aloe seed along the way? I did do 2000kills killing all kinds of lvl 0-3 mobs, but nothing so far (but I only had a hand full of axes drop and just one of them had a value of 1g while unid. If you still have the axe I'll buy it for 5k (pre) if anyone has one in those stats unid/white I'll pay 1bd. And help me find out where to drop them!
Thanks a lot for the contribution - glad there's still ppl who care!

It definitely dropped from bandits/alain. There's no chance it came from anywhere else. If I come across another, I'll make sure to leave it unid.

Thanks for the offer to buy it, but seeing as it's potentially quite rare, I'd like to keep it for now. I'm happy to show it to you in trade, though, if you'd like. My IGN for presearing is I Shall Defend.

ishalldefend · January 22, 2018 at 11:50 PM

It appears that the recent update to the website may have wreaked havoc on the organization of the table...

***mod edit---er, yeah, most of the old formatting didnt move well....will pm Red to see if he can put together a new version---mod edit****

Red Fireball · January 23, 2018 at 9:52 AM

I don´t know what the problem is - I mean... This looks perfect

will try put new thing up

cosyfiep · January 23, 2018 at 6:54 PM Official Post

seems to be good again....somethings just didnt move well....please let a team member know of any other issues (for some you might just need to edit your post by copying and pasting the same stuff again...)

Moogly The Sly · January 30, 2018 at 4:59 PM

Recently got this Daggers, which got higher Damage as shown in this .

Red Fireball · January 30, 2018 at 8:44 PM

That is something! You don´t see a new max for q0 items everyday! Thanks for sharing

Also my latest contributions:

GhostKairi · January 30, 2018 at 9:50 PM

Red did you ever find out if Req8 can drop in HM from appropriate level mobs? I have been farming for (Many years) some mobs in HM but I thought for once that I would keep a lot of unid items for you to check out merch value and see if its possible. Ive done like 10k+ runs in the years I've played and still havent had anything, but maybe you could provide some insight to if its even possible

You know what I am trying to farm of course

Red Fireball · January 30, 2018 at 11:15 PM

q8 is absolutely possible where you farm. 32-54g unid is the range of lvl 20 mobs and it yields q8s at 32-35g value. Max dmg sword begins at 35g at least maybe 34, max foc starts below 32g already and shields at 33. I am sure you have gotten some q8 over the years and some max dmg sword at 35g, just not both at same. The spot you are farming at is definitely suitable to farm the q8s. Alm that matters is mob lvl. NM or HM will just have an influence on the rare items drop rate as noted in some update notes from anet. I will soon put up an entire research thread that covers everything related to drops - I just didn't find the time so far. Would you mind sending me the items stats in your screen - the ranges are extremely valueable data for my research!

ishalldefend · February 4, 2018 at 2:22 PM

Hey, just found a new max damage for Q1 bows. Dropped from lvl 8 charr hunter in pre, in northlands (+didn't ID it this time!).

Agent Chevy · February 4, 2018 at 2:37 PM

Wow this opens all new doors, and impacts my low level q0 bow 9-13 collection lol. Typically the DMG of q1 is the same as q0 so will be curious if a 9-14 DMG q0 pops up some day.

ishalldefend · February 25, 2018 at 7:54 PM

New highest energy value for a Q1 staff! Dropped in pre - not sure if it was a boss or non-boss charr.

ishalldefend · March 17, 2018 at 4:07 PM

I know you'll like this one

Got it in the same place as the other one.

Red Fireball · March 17, 2018 at 4:13 PM

even at 2g - damn. Axes are weird sometimes - like scythes

the problem is probably connected to the fact why the happen in 7-xx dmg (10-xx respectively) whilst max dmg is 1 lower...

Thanks for checking the value!

Looney · March 17, 2018 at 10:12 PM

is that even worse dmg than the Starter Axe? Lol

(Edit: found out starter axe is 2-3 so i guess the worst drop is still better)

ishalldefend · March 18, 2018 at 12:36 AM

New minimum damage for Q6 purple staff, although this damage range is already listed under q6 for wands.

From presearing.

ishalldefend · March 26, 2018 at 1:58 AM

New minimum energy for Q2 focus (dropped from an Ashen Claw in presearing):

Red Fireball · March 27, 2018 at 4:00 PM

Kewl thanks for the input (thanks for finally dropping 6q2 foc - I gave up on it - it was obvious it´d happen, yet no one posted one)

Here´s my latest additions - will merge them in table in next minutes as well

Prepare to have your mind blown Red:

Hope this provides some valuable research for you, since Ikki messaged me about getting Unid value before I id'd it since I was too excited to think about doing that xD

Notes:

1: Dropped from level 20 Stone Summit mobs in EoTN.

2: Normal Mode

3: Have had great luck getting req8 stuff from them lol.

I am not sure if the fact it is inscr/from EoTN matters to the value of it, but hopefully it helps you out!

Pleikki · April 8, 2018 at 3:39 PM

yesssshh kairi thats so wicked! weve waited so long someone actually to post unid values for q8 sword drops xD

and congrats on awesome drop!

Red Fireball · April 8, 2018 at 11:30 PM

finally! Thanks so much for this first representative!

Someone give kairi and pleikki a medal!

And GZ on the insc short sword :O

Was it the fistfight thingie? Where else are stone summits?

But damn... at 33 g already... that is insane! I'd have expected 34-35g as you quoted me... that means that they might be more common than I thought... but ye maybe not I didn't see a lot dropping will merge it into my statistics asap and see what the maths say about the outcome

jack l eventreur · April 11, 2018 at 1:19 AM

here we go

ishalldefend · April 13, 2018 at 8:23 PM

You're gonna love this one - Dropped in Pre-Searing (highest value for an unid purple in pre is supposed to be 16g):

I knew it! Thanks so much for this one C:

That's how 10-17 and 16HSR are possible drops! I'll look into my table later on and see what else it tells... - Just for sake of completeness: from boss?!

Can't say for sure, since I bought it from someone, but I would say almost definitely (all my similar drops have been from the bosses).

jack l eventreur · April 20, 2018 at 7:26 PM

question: which items are considered? only items that are dropped, or collectors aswell?

here is a bow beating the q7 14/24 of the table, collector in LA.

Pleikki · April 20, 2018 at 8:15 PM

thats cool find! guess it was added prenerf times and never changed

yup it indeed seems as if few items from collectors were never changed with the nerf. They do not count for the research but might also be worth mentioning. I'd add a category in op called "out of range items from collectors and quests" and keep track of those there - always fun to see such thanks for the input - it shows there's at least someone else interested - so legitimates a list!

New Min DMG Q1 Hammer

Chrozinel · May 7, 2018 at 5:47 AM

Got these beautys today in Pongmei. Doesn't break records, but I thought I'd share in case the unid value gives any information regarding the claimed q8 max dmg dagger drops. Is 3g enough for +1 max dmg... ?

Hey I drop this things. I see your max damage for Q2 Scythe is 8-19, maybe you can update your board

Got another req7 minimum damage. 11-18 blue longbow, as pictured...

Does this sort of thing help?
