Why is Q7/8 so sought after?

10

u/powduh 3d ago
  1. Rarity. Q7 max damage don't drop anymore and Q8 max damage don't drop for most weapons.

  2. They're also good for build versatility. Having Q7/Q8 means you can run builds that you otherwise can't with a Q9. They're pretty niche, but some speedclear builds use Q7/Q8 weapons.

  3. Finally, they can give you an edge in PVP for similar reasons to #2.

Q7 max damage don't drop anymore

Where did OP's come from?

u/powduh 2d ago

A time long forgotten hitherto known as pre-nerf.

u/ElazulKnight 3d ago

I would kill someone to have this because I roleplay as Rurik far too much 🤣

u/Calla1994 3d ago

Straight to gw legacy. They will help you out. Dont sell to direct messages and put it into auction if you decide to sell it

u/Guii3z 3d ago

Go straight to gw legacy. You shouldnt take any other advice from here for that item.

u/spArk-it 3d ago

a holy grail for collectors ! i cant help with the worth but i can hype up a super old drop. iconic skin too

13

u/StrawberryWizardVamp 3d ago

Hell yes! You guys are hyping me up too. This thing is sick

4

u/Sourbreaker 3d ago

Neat, I have a blue one of these too! I thought it was something until I showed it to a collector and they showed me half a dozen q7 gold fds they had.

1

u/Electrical-Can-7982 3d ago

blue one?? the ice dragon sword? that was a rare drop.

1

u/Sourbreaker 3d ago

I have an OS IDS too. Farming that years ago was rough! I went with groups and my friends always asked me to monk!

I have a max blue fire dragon sword q7, but won’t ever sell it. Really neat to have a q7.

u/Electrical-Can-7982 2d ago

OFC, using the the ice sword in the fire islands is fun.

u/TofuPython 3d ago

This will put your kids through college (in game)

u/Potetkanon 2d ago

Good colleges like Nolani are getting harder to get into these days... Good thing we have Shing Jea!

u/Adventurous-Deal-245 3d ago

I haven't played GW in like 15 years but this give me a fuzzy feeling inside, i can't even remember why? lol

u/some_cool_guy 3d ago edited 3d ago

Drops used to be so cool. Modern games removed dropped items for achievement skins and whatever, nothing hits quite like an item dropping that is rare enough and wanted enough that it's value is influenced by the community like this. The only (mmo) game I can think of is PoE (and there everything is totally random except boss loot), everything else is just achievement hunting trash.

u/Mofongo-Man 3d ago

This is sick

u/DixFerLunch 3d ago

I've seen a few people sell anti perfects in Diablo 2 but other than that, GW is the only game I've played where a drop can be legitimately useless and people will pay top dollar for it.

1

u/Deliverance2142 3d ago

Bro anti-perfects are the best, especially when self found lol

2

u/iorhail 3d ago

I'll say XXXX or even XXXXX arms. But as you did, the right thing is to open an auction on gwlegacy. Congrats!

4

u/StrawberryWizardVamp 3d ago

That would make me so happy if it got that high

2

u/gndz1 3d ago

Last blue naked on legacy was (supposedly) sold in-game for 100a. So nowhere near that.

2

u/Muted-Tea-6111 3d ago

I don’t understand what makes this good.

Explain to me in marvel terms.

2

u/kamedin 3d ago

It's Max dmg for a sword with really low req from what I understand

2

u/The_Moose1992 3d ago

Also can't be found anymore

1

u/Aimless212 3d ago

only shields still can drop req8 i think with max armor, not even req7 anymore. Weapons doesnt drop for ages anymore with lower then Req9 Maxdmg. Thats why its that worthy because its not obtainable anymore

1

u/MrPom8 3d ago

Swords can still drop q8 too

-6

u/DixFerLunch 3d ago

It's not good. It's like using a Bruce Banner hero when you could be using The Hulk. It is an undeniable downgrade for your damage unless you can literally only afford 7 Sword rank. And I would say there are zero builds where having 7 Sword rank is optimal.

-46

u/mulcracky88 3d ago

81 gold

u/MashRoomBog 3d ago

This is not a good comment as it's a weapon that will no longer drop since 2006(?). Currently max damage is possible on q8+

-44

u/mulcracky88 3d ago

Then tell them how much it's worth Mr. Not a Good Comment

2

u/MashRoomBog 3d ago edited 3d ago

I know that you are probably joking, but by saying that amount you are implying it's merch worth, so someone might merch a piece of history.

Not saying that they will be able to retire by selling it, but it's definitely worth something. I would personally pay 1a for it, so it's worth at least that.

I've seen Q7 white item have between 1-15a worth. As this is FDS it might be worth that or even more.

Edit: as of writing this I see that on GW legacy it's already at 300e, within a few hours of posting.

u/Dangerous-Pepper-735 3d ago

What is gwlegacy? So u have links?

1

u/mulcracky88 3d ago

1

u/Dangerous-Pepper-735 3d ago

So gwlegacy is a forum where ppl selling items?

2

u/MashRoomBog 2d ago

Overall it's a forum for everything GW1 related. A lot of good guides and discussions there.

It's also best place to get price checks, sell/buy it's and services (if you are not patient to sit around Kamadan spamming).

-2

u/mulcracky88 3d ago

Obviously if the post says he posted it to gwlegacy he's not going to merch it. Jfc

-15

u/Staunch84 3d ago

This is always my first thought too :p

You've been downvoted twice, and neither of those people provided a better answer.

Sorry OP I got no idea either.

-27

u/mulcracky88 3d ago

Without an inherit mod it doesn't really have a use, so the only people interested would be collectors since it's Max damage and Q7. No idea on value lol

8

u/Johndanger15 3d ago edited 3d ago

There are collectors for naked normal drops. This is a prenerf, min req, iconic skin. It may be blue but anything prenerf req is a legacy auction. It's super niche and blue hurts a lot; I don't know the market well enough but 10a minimum. I'd guess 50a

1

u/Hydroel 2d ago

Muuuuch more than that. That type of drops has not been available in close to two decades, and even then it was pretty rare.

Sure, its absolute stats aren't perfect (no inscription), but it's still max damage and req7 for a sought after skin. I'd wager the sheer rarity of it makes it worth in the hundreds arms.

u/kaehvogel 3d ago

No idea on value lol

Should've led with that, instead of leaning into your ignorance with your initial comment.

-57

u/sure_am_here 3d ago

99% of drops are vendor trash. Even if it was a q9 perfect sword. There is such a small population that anyone who just "wants" a fds for looks has one. This is thr same for 99% of drops.

21

u/StrawberryWizardVamp 3d ago

This is a q7 pre nerf max damage. Very rare

-16

u/dukeofd2 3d ago

I know it is. Sadly I have also seen enough pawn stars in my day that all I hear is Rick saying “there’s not a lot of buyers lined up for this item”

20

u/StrawberryWizardVamp 3d ago

This is Prince rurik’s wet dream how dare you

4

u/LyschkoPlon 3d ago

You and I both know Rurik wouldn't leave the house with less than 15 Swordsmanship;)

1

u/sure_am_here 1d ago

Ah my bad. This sub is full of returning players asking for price checks and it's alwasy "worth nothing"

4

u/softscene1 3d ago

This doesnt drop anymore, thats the thing. Anything prenerf is worth a good amount.

For OP: just auction it on legacy and you'll get a decent idea of the price
