Dusk from Vinewrath.

Nice! Howd you get it to show your items like that?

If you open your chat box to its expanded opaque view (F9 I think is default), you will see a drop down menu on each chat tab. Select this menu to enable or disable the various messages. One is marked as loot, I believe. Loot listings may be included in “Game Messages” or something. I don’t recall exactly as it’s been a while. Not a real detailed reply to your question, just figured nobody else responded yet and I would give some kind of reply before crashing. If you need more specific details just say so.

3k + gamehours. 1 pre – Dawn (2-3k gold spent overall in MF tho).
Reading here, man, som ppl got sick luck I must say….

Yeah, that’s also mainly why I made this post.
Just to see if most people have good luck in the game.
Sadly it really doesn’t look good.
Some people are just born with the luck I guess.

Expensive as worth in gold, an exotic dagger from Megadestroyer, worth 10 gold, about 1,5 years ago. I play since official release (not beta).

Few weeks ago I found an acc-bound exotic staff with selectable stats, which is by far the most valuable/useful item I’ve got as drop so far. Obtained it during a no-brain cof p1.

I got Zap maybe two years ago (or more), when it wasn’t that valuable, earned 180g or so from that.

So uh three days after posting this, I went to fight Tequetl and got an ascended weapon. First ascended drop in 700 hours of playing.
I am sensing a conspiracy.
ANet saw this post and made an awesome item drop for me so I can keep quiet.
It all makes sense now.
Maybe I should make a post about legendaries…

I got Drawn (600 gold at the time) from the mystic forge, and entropy from a champion bag from HotW (90 gold). Also one abyss and one celestial dye that I kept to myself.

Also some runes and sigils worth up to 8 gold each.

Also got Sam and Eternal Ice before the collections, so they were not really worth much and soulbinded them

Never sold it, and my engineer now carries that rifle.

Nothing worth mentioning and I’ve been playing since launch. Most of my gold has been from selling t6 mats and ectos. Wasted lots of gold trying to get my precursor from the MF but eventually gave up and just bought it. Pretty frustrating. Started BLK farming and buying/holding scientific skins… Hopefully in a couple months it will pay off.

Best item I’ve gotten from the game at the time as the Exotic Sam 6 months before the collection. Went for 12 g, and by far the highest thing I’ve ever seen drop and I thought I had hit gold when I got it. Now its worth over 300g. Oh I also go the exotic Ulgoth’s tail before the collection system.

From the Mystic forge I did get The Legend after dumping in exotic and rare staffs for 6 months, and then did a run of over 120 one day to get it out. Oh and now that superior runes of divinity are worth less than a gold I’m getting them.

I watch another guy in the guild who has smaller MF (220 vs 256) than I do, doesn’t run with the boosters like I do get at least one exotic a day, I’m lucky to see an exotic drop a month. And my exotic drop is usually in the sub 1 G range, or if I’m really lucky in the 4 g range.

Another guy in the guild with sub 200 MF has found 6 precursors, 4 from drops, 2 from the mystic forge. Of course he has a fully loaded home instance too. I would if I was swimming in gold from precursor drops.

Most of my gold recently has been from my 5th character doing map completion and now my 6th, harvesting everything I can and selling it. Its not from mob drops. Though I suppose you could count the cloth as mob drops.

Scythe skin looted early on in the game (sold it for like 70 gold at the time, was a lot of dough)

The Legend looted as a drop from Sorrow’s Embrace explorable

Scarlet’s Rainbow, rifle dropped on the very last time I did the Breachmaker battle before the patch dropped. Held onto it for long before deciding to equip it, as Scarlet memorabilia lol.

In the first 3 days I played on my very first Maw kill, I got an Eternal Ice (exotic) and sold it for 4g. Was more gold than I knew what to do with (then).
Have never had another one, of any rarity, drop since.
I looted 2 Ascended chests, one from Tequatl- one from the Corrupted Quaggan (FGS).
Other than that, nothing at all worth over 2-3g. I get (if I’m lucky) an exotic every 3-4 months. Maybe.
Ive played since 6mos after launch.

Carcharias from a FR bloke in EotM, which I sold for ~120g. I never got any really awesomely expensive drops, but I got stuff worth 10-30g fairly regularly so can’t really complain that much. Still, i’m kinda bummed that the 3 precursors I got as drops were silly ones (Carcharias and 2x Bard).
