How was today? Pretty good all things considered. I finished a project I've been working on for a bit: Max 7 titles within 5 seconds of each other. Now I have plans on maxing out other title groups at the same time and I bet it's going to feel just as amazing when I finish!

I missed favor, do it again in 45min or so... 😁😆

The wiki weirdness has to do with the item attributes for the staves that drop in multi prof as insc and os only having a couple possible tables in the wiki code, and neither is correct, but this is closest the wiki tables has.

They don't like doing custom tables, and the infobox is literally just this... it's set to all caster, because the only other choice for this is primary only i think.

{{Weapon infobox
| image = [[File:Ghostly Staff.jpg|200px]]
| type = [[Staff]]
| campaign = [[Core]]<br>[[Prophecies]]<br>[[Nightfall]]
| attribute = caster
| damagetype = Varies
| pvpreward = Exotic
| commonsalvage = [[Pile of Glittering Dust|Piles of Glittering Dust]] <br> [[Wood Plank]]s
}}

They are basically at random almost everywhere on istan Island.

The higher level (lol) places like issnur, mehtani, and lahtenda are best.

Also any istani chest is a chance.

the aion wings code was from the steelbook edition of the game aion, not a magazine. You can still find new old unopened stock on ebay (~$5)

Amazon too (~$8)

Decided to get into chest running to max chest, lucky and unlucky titles but not too experienced in judging drops, yet. These any good?

It's an under-appreciated skin, but finding a matching 20/20 forbidden staff is pretty sweet.

enameled and darkwing i've only found in dwarven, underground areas as far as i remember

pretty sure secret lair of the snowmen in nm is one source

Nearly everything is lvl 15 and most generic "eotn underground" skins drop there... that or it's a similar loot table to battledepths based on physical location on the map.

I know I've gotten an enameled before, but it sucked.

Lord Onrah gave me a decent shield drop...

Just a FYI, Lord Onrah can drop this too...

the only things that have been done in years (other than the anniversary weapons and pve elites) have been "low hanging fruit".

That means things simple-ish to implement by the limited team gw has left (stefan clarke-wilson and bill friest).

Many of the recent changes they did were pulled out toolboxes codebase and added to gw, or just doubling a number for fl/iggy length, or changing a 1 to a 2 to make the presearing gate stay open 2x as long.

I'm not saying this to disparage their efforts, the updates have been great, it's just pointing out 2 dudes can't possibly undertake such a big update alone. The only possibility would be if anet threw extra resources at gw1 for the 20th anni or something.

also which skin will make a difference, diamond (ewwwww) or gorgon/medusa (yaaaaay!)

Make sure you specify which it is in the auction.

sorry but info about heket is false, spawn in kourna, https://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Koss%27s_Elixir

let's try :p

I saw where he is on the wiki page, I'm just happy to know he exists. He gets my hopes up for another 'unicorn' skin i never thought possible as a no req. With his level i think it should be possible, it's comparable to the low end of other sources on istan that drop no req max shields.

and I'll be pissed if he doesn't because he's wielding it in his damn picture 🤣

“That guy”

Welp, he's wielding it in his wikipic so he better give me it! 😆

Quote from Fenrir el Gris

rain/rock beetle lvl 20, behemots lvl 20, roaring eter lvl 20, and not sure if im missing some foe, one heket lvl 5 will spawn on istan but not sure what ''wildlife'' affiliation is asigned for that one :p

Wait? What is this lvl 5 heket on istan, i must find out if i can get that f**ker to drop no req 8ar insc tribal (face) shields.

It's a skin i gave up on, since its only from heket, and didn't know about "that guy".

I thought i was supposed to be the crazy one around here?

I could use the mini gwen for a project I'm working on. 🤫

I'll 3xplain the staff thing a bit...

On OS staves for monk they are all requires smite or divine favor, so q9 df with hct 20% of prot or heal is a "perfect" os heal/prot staff.

On most skins like holy staff its common to find, but plagueborn (and certain other skins) has nearly every caster attribute, so rolling q9 df + perfect 20% prot is a rare combo

Iaerah bears was pretty active in the thread on the pre site, wouldn't surprise me if most, if not all, of that list is already included.

Quote from Zes

Hi guys, was just wondering if someone kept a more up to date version? I downloaded the last one, but I feel like it doesn't filter anything, thinking maybe since as I see most spammers now include either a - or a _ between the letters (I only see a few such lines in the file), or I might be just doing something wrong? (saved as ChatFilter.ini with UTF-8 coding in the same folder as screens/templates, [ChatFilter] line at top then an empty line then the filters?)

i keep the list in my thread at the presearing site updated regularly as i find new ones.

https://presearing.boards.net/thread/3318/ch…ni-idiots-guide

The current list is below, including very old rules if they recycle them.

It works fine even that long with no lag.

When even Red Fireball has no love for a tower will the merchant even take it?

Quote from Red Fireball

Btw that screen you posted of item that dropped for a friend doesn't work - at least for me..

I'll try again...

After getting no spiked clubs in 30 mins I headed to NA to farm some charr

USE ID KIT

Too scared to ID given past history of staves. Will stay noid forever!

Omfg dat crude!

Totally agree on the obby earth staff...

I swear every one i ID is naked.

Yes, they drop as low as q0, the real low req ones obviously can't be gold.

Lah-tee-da Bog is a good spot since its almost all corsairs, mandagor, and insects.

Thankfully, this just dropped to a friend, not me.

It's got a couple things off in all the wrong places.

merch.

Unless its a max dualmod os shield, focus, or wand, generally if it's q13 it's merch.

Quote from Oni of Demonslaying

Who did you sacrifice to the gods to make all that happen

Please say Vekk, i hate that guy.

/doh

As if 1 off max q8 isn't bad enough, i give you these amazing dagger specimens...

They were 19% under 50%, not that anyone cares, because they just had to be pointless in every way.

Quote from PyroLobster

But raptors do piercing damage... or have I been using the wrong shield for over a decade?

TBH its been years since i farmedvthem, and i kinda forget. 😆

Naga and Kappa stabbing netted me a couple shields the other day, a Tall Shield...

Which is sorta funky.

Oh yeah, and this other one...

First Magmas in ages chest running Tascas with DDF active.

Also got a Major Vigor.

Tengu gave me a cute nonmax gold spiked club during favor just now.

Sorry, not ided yet. Pretty sure its not +5e, dv, or dz.

Full frontal nudity will have to come later as I'm saving unids for someone to help them with wisdom.

Edit:

Quote from Lily

Well, it *almost* isn't junk...

If you're gonna junk that please tell me so i can pick ur trash.

My alts guild was a guild i made for a friend who was sick of guild recruiters. She and I had an ally and chatted thru ally chat. I always had my alt pre storage parked in her guild, so sometimes chat channels got confusing. Mostly she recycled elementalists in presearing, but we played everywhere. I helped her prep her HoM for gw2, which neither of us liked a ton, but we tried to keep up with it. Mostly while we played we were busy chatting, so having heros hench in gw helped.

She had leukemia, and passed away half a decade or so ago.

My alt is still in her guild.

Quote from 6chdirect

Got a similar one in FoW last , also for monk, nice couple!

Damn, we need gw 10 yrs ago, ya know back when there was 3000 purple blindfolded and dyed purple fow armor monks... maybe they would want purple perfects? 🤔 😆

Who am i kidding, even Shatam giggled at me when i tried to give him it.

Yay, first q9 with two max inherents in a while... but wait

I guess we know where the -3hp went.

i think all loot sotw and aegis are tactics, but this weaponsmith crafts the other attributes.

coffee, coffee, and more coffee.

Black or milk and/or sugar?

Steal mods for a max staff or to sell, keep it if you just want the skin, or...
