Single mod OS items always merch.

The only exception I know of is that some collectors like single mod q9 gold shields with a specific armor vs creature mod.

They’re happy to throw a few ectos for those, otherwise just merch.

Quote from Forty Second Rogue

Im curious as to why Tactics are more valued than Strength based.

And for sticking to the theme of the post xxa

As other mentioned, demon shields are mainly DoA, but overall I still feel that tactics are better than str. Str shields will never allow you to put attribute points into it without being a warrior. Tactics is the only OS shield attribute that you can gain the max armor from without being a warrior.

Another example is Bogsc. Whenever I tank, I tank in A/W and have a tactics +10 vs slashing shield, which I can spend my other unused attribute points on.

That's why I always try to buy a tactic shield instead of str, because there's situations where you'll gain double armor from a shield just because it's a specific attribute.

But then there's also situations where you won't have any attribute points over to spend on shield attribute, so a cheaper str one will do just fine there aswell.

Bad day. Recently found out that the exact odd shield I’m looking for sold for 50e here a couple weeks ago.

My first ever dual modded q8 item

Very ugly tho, but still happy!

Edit: LOL the first chest i opened after posting, dropped this

and...

@ardunain is your guy for that shield

agree with cloud for the rest

Bump! added some prices

Bring it up

My first 20/19 useful wand... Hopefully next one will be 20/20

Still a good start for the day!

bump! added a new wand... almost perfect. Sorry blind

Many miss the emerald blade (4) as just some insc weapon - don’t be fooled. It’s a rare eotn insc skin like voltaic spear, goes for around the same price. 180-200e

Ah, that makes sense Ostona. I was thinking more of PvE playstyle, particularly SF tanking/running where SF already has a -5 flat damage reduction for each assassin ench on you. You end up taking a lot of small damage around 0-10 each and was wondering what would be best, -2 or +10 armor for that.

Hello!

I believe that quite a few of us on here could agree that shields are one of the most exciting aspects of this game. They’re beautiful, very useful, and sometimes very, very rare (and expensive).

But I feel like we don’t have enough info on the math behind the inscriptions on them. At least I haven’t been able to find anything on it.

So how much better are the -2^ench/stance inscriptions than the -5 20% ones?

Would I benefit more from a +10vs damage/creature type over the flat -2 reductions?

I mean the flat -2 reduction will reduce 100% of the incoming damage if the incoming damage is 2 right?

A +10 armor vs type is a % reduction, and wouldn’t reduce the 2 damage to 0 like the flat reduction would, correct me if I’m mistaken.

And if I am right, how much damage would I need to take before the +10 armor reduces more overall damage than the flat -2 does?

And here’s where the OS goodies comes in. You can’t replicate a -2 w/e with a +10vs damage/creature type with inscription shields since;

1. The reduction mods are all inscriptions, no handles

2. Armor vs creatures comes only in OS.

So in theory, the most damage reducing shield would be the -2 +10 armor shields right?

I need some input on this from people who knows the guild wars math and how the game calculates damage packages/reductions etc.

Hope to hear from more shield enthusiasts

Cheers

WTS OS Items & Inscribable Updated 2/22/2021 - Page 9 - Selling - Guild Wars Legacy

Hey!

Just a rule of thumb: majority of inscribable weapons aren’t rare enough to be valuable. You’ve got your exceptions like; eternal/crystalline blades, bds’s, frog scepters etc.

These aren’t too rare. But, they’re useful since they are q9’s with max damage. So if you find anyone who are specifically looking for the skins you have for sale, you might get a few ectos for them. I personally wouldn’t pay more than 1-5e if that’s what you’re asking for.

Good luck!

I've been getting too many 1 offs lately :')
