The Early Kat Years 8: 100K Superior Absorption!

Yes... Superior Absorption was actually 100K way back when at the rune trader if you believe it or not. I always tried farming to get it for my warrior without spending a ridiculous amount of money for an extra -1 damage reduction over Major Absorption but with no success. Spartan Destroyer, Rydia Of Riglia and Alexa The Amazing felled many ettins in search of the legendary rune but they all failed. ANet set the rarity on these runes to scarce levels and that's why the price was driven up so much. Jason still taunts me until today that I never got one until after the price dramatically fell and they became more common. In the end, I gave in and just bought the darned thing... because my love for Drok's running outweighed smelling Ettin's blood all day long.
