Talk:Tribal Axe

Skuld, how rare is this axe?? -PanSola 05:28, 14 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Erm, how to compare rareness? More than a sickle or serpent axe, less than a crystalline. I've heard about them being dropped in the HoH chest, the doppleganger dropped mine 212.158.245.101 09:27, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
 * It's just that I don't notice them as being rare, and don't think its rareness has any significance. Is it a highly sought after style of axe (due to its style or rareness)?  And I'm asking you cuz you were the one who edited it to say it's rare -PanSola 10:37, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Due to it's prettyness :P 11:14, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
 * I think the only thing that is rare about these axes would be getting a max damage one. Getting one that isn't max is not that tough.  Same thing for most (not all) of the weapons people claim are rare.  I get sickles all the bloody time and people claim they are rare, but I have never gotten a max damage one.  --Rainith 11:16, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Why would a person choose this axe over a different type of axe with a greater maximum damage? Given that those other types of axes exist, such as a White Scythe, I don't think that these particular axes (whether rare or not) are all that valuable.  Rareness implies great value, though, so I don't think that this axe should be labeled as being rare. Banaticus 15:22, 14 December 2005 (UTC)

I've merched countless blue ones...... they're not so rare that blues are worth anything, right? O.o 76.19.223.231 19:27, 17 May 2007 (CDT)
 * I can't really see the appeal, these axes are hideous. -Gildan Bladeborn 16:25, 13 June 2007 (CDT)

droping
Where it's drop mostly? I found many Tribal Axes on the Shiverpeaks but dmg of them was very weak. --Grethort 06:20, 27 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Try going into hard mode and fighting among the harder monsters to get them to drop max damage types. --Kale Ironfist 06:55, 27 May 2007 (CDT)

No golds...
BS. I seen em on gwguru price check. Changing it.Dark0805 13:02, 27 May 2007 (CDT)

no max damage gold?
I'd like to see a max damage gold Tribal Axe. Even guru does not have any. Do they even exist, or is it even possible for one to drop? If they exist, I'd like proof (screenshots, IGN, etc.).

 * I still have not found even a blue max damage inscribable Tribal Axe. I have not only farmed for it for about a month (and opened every Istan chest on HM i came across, totalling over 500 so far), but I have also checked Guru and Googled it using half a dozen different queries every single day, sifting through the same 500+ search results every single day.  No max damage inscribable/15^50 Tribal Axes exist or were EVER known to exist.  The fact that there were price checks on Guru for Tribal Axes is because those people were PC-ing their REGULAR and BLUE (some inscribable) Tribal Axes.  To put it shortly, this axe is the Holy Grail of GW and I am changing the article to better reflect this fact.  I will, however, continue my search in hopes that one day I shall finally find the grail...--Slic 16:07, 21 June 2007 (CDT)


 * Isn't "holy grail of guild wars" a little overdoing it? M s4 16:28, 21 June 2007 (CDT)


 * About 1 month (and 400+ hours of farming) ago I would have agreed with you... --Slic 16:54, 21 June 2007 (CDT)

the article says no max damage, gold or 15^50 were ever known to exist" but there's a max white one on guru auctions right now. anyone want to change it? i'm afraid i'll screw something up. 76.19.223.231 19:47, 25 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Is there a picture there? can you provide a link? Foo 19:59, 25 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Apologies, the wording is a little awkward. No max damage AND inscribable/15^50 Tribal Axes were ever known to exist.  I will change it accordingly; there are plenty of max damage white ones out there already. --Slic 20:09, 25 June 2007 (CDT)

Someone should add they drop from the Sickened Guards in Minister Cho's Estate (Mission). I went there looking for either a tribal axe or serpent axe and I had a few near max tribal axes drop, (6-26 white, a couple other white, and a blue one but factions items aren't inscribable and it wasn't max but near to it). Seeing as the Sickened Guards drop mostly warrior weapons, sword, axes and sheilds to be exact, it is a good place to farm in Hard Mode.


 * Confirmed that Tribal Axes drop from Sickened Guards (Warrior) and added them to the list. Also changed the drop location for Istan.  They drop all over Istan from Bladed Termites and Ridgeback Skales.  I will refrain from adding Skale Blighters back in, as I am still unable to obtain a Tribal Axe from them (perhaps I am not killing enough of them).  From what I have seen, and this makes sense, any warrior mobs that are in the beginning areas of a campaign drop Tribal Axes.  However, just to be safe, I will refrain from changing the drop locations unless I personally have witnessed them being dropped from a particular mob.  --Slic 21:59, 18 July 2007 (CDT)
