TIL if you have a bonus item in your storage it will not give you a new one

This is not true. Not Serrated Shield in his inventory it should be created. The others are already there, so they won't be duplicated.

Example after using /bonus, then destroying the shield and reusing /bonus:

Dunno what to tell you, taking the Serrated out of my storage and destroying it was what made /bonus give me another one.

And if I try to recreate it by putting the shield in storage, it still won't give me a new one. I guess the game considers the storage chest as "you already have one.", which would make sense.

Treating me with an apparent bug today. Can't get the bonus shield.

Ironman solo warrior UW farming is crazy to me

It's not too difficult once you get good at stair blocking (if it's patheon week, not worth it otherwise), and the Warrior/Ele smite farm build is super tanky (can literally tank any number of them), nukes most of them but you have to deal with potential stragglers

Quote from Forty Second Rogue

That's a keeper.

No.

THIS! IS! SPATHA!

Quote from ripbb

Is the logic behind it that mobs that can drop fellblade gold max are above lvl 19 ?

Level 20, but yes. Southern Shiverpeaks and onwards is where it drops, and both mobs and chests there don't drop q8. Apparently you can get them from HM Crystal Desert though, but since it's HM, same issue.

Can't complain. More than I usually get going through eotn primaries.

I can't remember what I had for lunch, let alone some random dude from 3 years ago xd At least I got my max consumable titles and some zkeys *happy thoughts*

you may be able to tell us what items you had, so we can track down who might own them today there is a large database of items on this forum!

Even if I could remember details, I agreed to sell it for a price, albeit low one, and to that I hold.

Not like I could buy them back with the 18arms I have lmao

Kinda cool

it was about 2022, but yes. It is what it is, didn't know what they were called at the time so I couldn't find a price on them. I'm more upset that I sold them, them being one of a kind and all...

would love to hear the IGN of that guy, but am sure he will recognise himself :winkwink:

I'm quite annoyed, that after I returned to the game after 10 years, I got got by some bastardo that convinced me mauso items weren't expensive and I sold him like 10 purple and gold mauso spears and scythes, and a 3 mod shield and foci for like 250 ectos >_>

420gv sup vigor though, if anyone's collecting

people still scam in 2025 very sad.... i think is the most bigger scam i have seen in the game

Quote from Ecto Sacrifice

I love seeing appreciation for those skins that never dropped in gold OS (tribal axe, ball hammer, sickle (double axe version), any others i’m forgetting?)

I know there was a gold OS mausoleum tribal axe sold here a few years ago (q10 15/stance if I remember correctly). Wonder if there are any other gold OS mausoleum versions of those niche skins

there are other skins that don't drop gold OS in name, but have identical looks to skins that do. hatchet, rusty axe and tribal blade are the ones i can think of right now.

the tribal was q10 14^stance iirc.

And just like that, my Q8 15-21 collection possibilities grow

Want this one?

Quote from Brezel und Wurst

Wow this is cool ya?

Not sure I'd describe it as cool, but it was fun (for the most part).

I like farming, so coming up with Tyria only builds that could farm HM, UW, FoW, was the most fun for me. The rest was just grinding to get titles, because I think it would be funny to get 15 max titles without leaving Tyria...eventually.

Quote from sebastiansw

Impressive

That's not how you spell autistic

ERMAHGERD they added q7s and uncons back in the game on the down low :O

Quote from Sadist Illusionist

After about 20k chests, FINALLY A PERFECT SWS

not even a nice GV. merch.

Shards ✔

The Hand Axe is from HM Nolani.

Decided on the turning heroes into henchmen strat.

Wasn't sure on the attributes, so RIP challenge failed, I'm a phony.

Just you and me left, buddy.

The last one.

That was...not fun. Luckily packs were easy to pull and control.

Here ends my sick leave. Luckily I'm done with the grindy stuff, besides Wisdom, Treasure, Lucky and Unlucky, I suppose :^) (yeah, that ain't happening).

Hopefully I'll feel like smashing my face against the HM missions and bonuses once I get some free time.

Besides those, maxing sugar, alcohol and party are the remaining goals; getting me 11 max titles. So, potentially, I could get "I'm Very Important", were I to max lucky, unlucky, treasure and wisdom:^)

Have a good 20 Year Anniversary y'all!

Sorta put the missions out of mind for the moment and am spending the last few days of my sick leave to no-life obby shards. 13 to go QQ

I knew I should have sold my mini Piggys
RIP, I guess gold os Crystallines aren't returning

It's not all lost. We will still get some other drops.

to be fair, even if 2005 skins (swamp, krytan etc) dont make a comeback, I'm beyond happy with finally being able to have a mini kanaxai, something I was sure would never happen, not with the 20arms I have to my name lmao. +a nice little middle finger to the ones that "totally legally acquired" the mini pets :^)

Royal Gifts would be great, but I'm not sure I can even access them without completing Asuran Allies and Ebon Vanguard Allies, coz I can't find a WiK collector that would trade with just the first step of WiK complete.

Ok buddy, ok pal, ok dude. No need to flex on me that hard ._.
I'm working on some spice too.

Yeah I couldn't figure out the npc so I went to wiki again and checked the flow chart. Apparently it is basically locked behind EotN. We can get the confessor orders but we cant do anything with them.

I got a lucky boss spawn setup. Full ranged the first general (ranger and 2 bows) and his spawn group (the 3 necro forgotten) before taking ghostly hero to altar. Got necro boss entering west gate. Got monk general on right side and warrior general on left. The ele boss might have been quicker than the monk boss but I had enough pressure dps to kill and enough time to clear out the warrior boss team before the monk general's spawn group got to the ghostly hero.

My build was,

W/E

Air 12, Fire 12

Glimmering Mark, Mark of Rodgort, Glyph of Lesser Energy, Conjure Flame

Used a collector fire staff with a +27 hale mod. Didn't have a wrap for it, +% enchanting would have been ideal. Had a mix of radiant/survivor insignias. Didn't bother changing my major axe/strength runes out.

Lina/Alesia/Stephan/Dunham/Claude

Could probably have changed out lina or stephan for reyna to get better burning up time and cap out the bosses degen since they have natural resistance for +3 HR.

Beyond simply fishing for a good spawn on the bosses I would estimate a player needs to do a minimum of about 35 ranged single target dps to have enough time to clear the bonus.

Display More

It's not just about fishing for a good spawn though... I find that the absolutely mentally deficient henchmen AI is the real hurdle.

Just had an amazing spawn, pulled the mesmer boss so as to bug the Ghostly outside the fortress, killed the wurm and first bonus boss (monk) by luring it with a bow, got the mesmer boss to 25%, flagged henchmen and ran to trigger the Ghostly. As I come back, I see the mesmer was back to 80%, the henchmen weren't casting or attacking it and we ended up failing to kill it on time.

I noticed while vanquishing that sometimes the henchmen would just stop moving and literally stood there doing nothing. While it's annoying during vanquishing, it can easily ruin mission attempts and waste 15minutes... no idea why they never updated henchmen AI...

Those res scrolls, powerstones and summoning stones might be how I bruteforce my way through 4 and 6 man HM missions ._.

Too bad there aren't any ways to get Asura/Norn/Delver without entering EotN. Got really excited for about 45 seconds though when I realized you can 8/13 pages of Young Heroes of Tyria and max Sunspear and Lightbringer that way, followed by a deep sadness when I stopped being illiterate and realized I'd have to turn in the book in the Sunspear Great Hall and Chantry of Secrets...hopes=dashed

They only give 1k rep points each anyhow for 8 missions. You would have to "bruteforce" your way through each 100 times

If you can get access to Elder Rabne you might have good consumable access through royal gifts maybe?

I was happy to hit r3 on my prophecies only ele account to get the ebon vanguard merchant but then realized most of it didn't mean much. A few rez scrolls might possibly one day be useful.

justice wdym quests for ebon title track?

No I just decided to enter EotN to get some more max titles since Tyria was too limiting. Started with the Ebon though, yes.

Quote from Pleikki

Ah i though someting was odd when dropped this1 today

I'm well aware of what day it is today, so I really hope this is real coz, oh my God, I love you.

I knew I wasn't misremembering a purple insc crystalline existing from back when EotN came out. Saw a picture taken with a potato on a german forum of one and was looking for a screenshot for a good while now.

Also saw a grainy picture of a q6 15-21 purple crystalline with no mod, but that was surely a fake, right? (Please blow my mind and post an ss of it)

EDIT: I thought you owned it :c still, a great thanks! It's funny(or sad?) how excited I get over 20yo pixels.

I got treated with the usual urgoz treatment today :). Always calming to know some things are still the same

gz on the 20/20 staves!

Either W/R or W/any, Troll Unguent 10 wilderness or Healing Signet 11 tactics. I only have good tactics shields, so it's probably gonna be Healing Signet for a while until I get a decent Shadow Shield.
