55 farming back in the day was very serious business. The Henge of Denravi sword was a very sought after sword with a unique Energy+5 mod that was upgradable with a 20% enchanting mod. After farming with my 55 necro, I needed better equipment. I bought my Denravi sword for 100K+30e back then... and that's when ecto was trading at around 8.5K each o_O! However, the community found out about the Fiery Flame Spitter with it's inherent halve skill recharge mod, making it a good alternative to the HoD sword. In December 2006, I decided to get FoW armor for my warrior and I desperately needed the cash to do so. It was then that I sold my HoD sword... for 100K+45e :O. It turned out that I made quite a trade... Guild Wars Factions came out not too long after that and introduced other Energy+5 weapons that were upgradeable. The HoD sword as a result dropped dramatically in price.
About 6 months ago I repurchased a HoD sword from somebody for 100K as a memento. It looks really neat to have one again :).

i haven't followed the trade prices recently but meaning you paid 100k for a HoD Sword means it increased in value again? sweet!
ReplyDeleteNope... they've decreased in price from their peak of 100K+40-50 ectos. The reason why they're priced at 100K right now is because they're rare (can't be crafted anymore)
