After many, many years of putting this off, today was the day!
-
Collection as of today, this is my current Collection of Requirement 8 gear! The 2 gold items were both gifts, I will keep the gift givers names' anonymous for now. But I am very grateful to them both! Though the other items here are all blue, I either acquired them through trading for a very reasonable price, or getting them as a drop myself!
Humble beginnings, but it's only up from here!

Hello, everyone!
After reading several other Collection posts, I decided to share my own little Collection/Story.
As a heads up, do not expect to see anything too exciting here. Also, I will try to keep this as short as possible. (It's still going to be long :P)
So, I have been a Guild Wars player since 2006 when I was quite a young lad. Growing up playing this game, I had no sense of what was 'valuable'. (I sold my Mini Varesh first week of NightFall release....)
What I focused primarily on was doing PvE content with my friends. (Which I do not regret one bit!)
My life has always been rather hectic, and so my ability to play Guild Wars over the years was quite sporadic. (Mainly due to moving 30+ times)
Now that I am an adult, and my life has been primarily stable for the last 6 years, I have been able to get back to the things I love. (Guild Wars Especially!!!)
Firstly, I was intrigued by Chest Running.....that is when my new love/addiction was born! After learning the basics, and some essential routes, I found myself experiencing the love of this game like I felt as a teenager all over again! Hours just melting into minutes as I tell myself "This is the last run, then it's bed time" knowing full well I am locked in for another hour.
Thankfully, through the amazing community that Guild Wars has always had, and actually through this very website I was able to meet the ever known Mr Clean, who not only has been friendly and accommodating to a n00b chest runner, but has been a big factor in me having the faith that I could still become a Collector, and getting it done! Big shout out to you, Clean!
To be truthful, up until this 20th Anniversary Event, my 'Net Worth' in-game, was roughly around 5 Armbraces. But, thanks to all the hype, I made a good chunk of money (in my eyes) thanks to the new Weapon Mods and a SUPER LUCKY Glacial Blades drop!! (q11 but still got over 10a!)
Keep in mind, even today my entire account has a total value of XXa, I have yet to breach the XXXa threshold so I am sure any of you big ballers out there with the fat stacks won't find much to see here. xD
So here I am, super late to the Collector game, but I am going to give it my all! I am going to list below the goals that I have in mind and one day hope to achieve. Hopefully through hard work and persistence, I can update my collection, and therefor this thread as I do so!
Primary Goals
- Minimum of 1 PreNerf Req8 Sword or Axe (Max Dmg), and 1 PreNerf Req8 Shield (16AR) (Prophecies skin)
- Req8 OS Fellblade (15^50 or +5e)Other Goals
- More Max Stats Req8 Martials/Shields from Prophecies/Factions (OS or Insc)
- Enough Req8 Main/Offhands for my Heroes on my Main Character (OS or Insc)
Dream Goals
- Req 7 OS Fellblade (15^50 +5e)
- Req 8 OS Exalted Aegis (Any Perf Dual Mod)
- Unded Mini Varesh (to right the wrong :P)
I will also reply to this Thread with a message containing my current collection of of this day: 6/28/2025
P.S. If you read through this entire post, thank you! It means a lot to me!

It really depends on your Party Structure I suppose...
If you have a Class that is more dependent on Adrenaline per say, instead of Energy then the 15^50 is going to be ideal. Because your build is likely focused mostly on DPS via Adrenaline (maybe some CC depending on your weapon), therefor that damage buff (unless I am mistaken which I very well could be) should be increasing the Damage Floor, meaning your lowest possible damage will increase, which is always a good thing with melee builds. Especially considering how much AoE melee classes can pull of these days (looking at all you Dervish).
Also, you have to keep in mind that thanks to the cleave/AoE that a lot of melee classes tend to have, your better off using a Zealous Mod (-1 Energy Regeneration / +1 Energy Gain on Hit) because you gain +1 Energy for every single proc of damage.
Therefor, once again increasing the Damage Floor (lowest possible DPS) still seems ideal. Using a Zealous Mod and 'Strength and Honor' inscrip at the same time kind of gives you the 'best of both worlds' so-to-speak.
Yet, on the contrast if you are running a VERY Energy Dependent build, and your Heroes do not have the ability to supplement you with Energy Regen, then it could very well be the better idea to bring 'I Have The Power' for that +5 Energy.
Also, keep in mind that you can add Energy to your Armor via Runes or Insignias (perhaps both, I always forget)
Anywho, this is once again just my personal insight on this matter. I am certain there are people here with far more knowledge that will be able to assist with actual analytics to back things up.
All the same, I hope this help!
P.S. Welcome back to the best game ever made! -
Did a few trades today and acquired some q8's for the Collection! They are all post nerf blues, but that is perfectly ok with me!
-
So, considering the Retract from Controlla, and your line in the post saying "Min Bid Increments = 1a"
I suppose my current bid is 3a? -

-
Bump - added Non Pre-Nerf q8's to the search
