Talk:Armbrace of Truth

Fallen Brethren?
The Deacon of Whispers in the Gate of Anguish (location) says this, "If you bring me an Armbrace of Truth from within these realms, I will know you have found one of my fallen brethren and have earned their trust through your deeds." This doesn't really sound related to the collect-100-gems method of obtaining an Armbrace, so maybe the final drop in the elite mission itself is an Armbrace and the 100-gems method is just there as an alternative. Pure speculation on my part... Jinkas 01:22, 7 December 2006 (CST)
 * Maybe they're using a placeholder model for the Spirit of Truth and he's supposed to look like an Order of Whispers ghost. -- Gordon Ecker 01:37, 7 December 2006 (CST)


 * Heard that it was better farming/buying 60 gems than hoping for the armbrace to drop from a chest, as its drop rate seems to be much smaller than 1/60. Source is www.gwshop.net, so not pure real information, but what is said there is often right, at least by regular members. -- Fexghadi 07:48, 9 April 2007 (CDT)

 * beat a zone, talk to spirit of truth by the chest - Skakid9090 16:56, 4 July 2007 (CDT)


 * it's not just any zone, it's the Elite Mission of NF, namely the Ebony Citadel of Mallyx, which is easily one of the hardest places in the game. Heck I can't even get past the first group of monsters in any of the 4 DoA zones...--Chlikaflok 12:19, 17 July 2007 (CDT)
 * Skakid is well aware of that, by zone he meant one of the 4 areas of the DoA. Lord of all tyria 12:44, 17 July 2007 (CDT)

 * It took you a year and a half to come up with that reply? Really, you could have done so much better. --Macros 14:51, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

Currently, there is insufficient data to determine which method averages out to be cheaper.
EPIC DUPING IMO
 * Don't buy any armbraces until this whole duping thing is sorted. - 79.74.41.247 09:08, 13 August 2007 (CDT)


 * I agree with you I wanna see what A net does I don't wanna get penalized. I hope they scan accounts and set a limit to the number u can have at once anyone with excess gets deleted.  Then they create like a footbrace or something to take its place.--Komradkyle 11:10, 13 August 2007 (CDT)
 * I even heard on a guru topic that Anet would reset gw like it was 1 month ago, but the duplicate bug would be fixed (dunno if it will happen or not, i don't like serious reading :P)--Talos of Flanders 17:46, 13 August 2007 (CDT)
 * Gaile confirmed that NO rollback would occur, luckily 84.24.206.123 17:47, 13 August 2007 (CDT)
 * phew...^^
 * Yeah, rollback would be too funny. Can anyone say Dragon Festival Redux-Redux?--&mdash;  xis10al  [[Image:Xis10al_sig_icon.jpg]] 21:03, 13 August 2007 (CDT)
 * I don't think the duplicating has been fixed yet, seeing that the reconnect feature is still removed from the game. Blaze 03:51, 14 August 2007 (CDT)

Everyone with a duped Armbrace has been banned as of August 13th 2007. 09:55, 14 August 2007 (CDT)
 * Really? [[Image:ShidoSig_moebius2.gif]] 09:58, 14 August 2007 (CDT)
 * No, this guy has no idea what he's talking about. They banned the creators and people who were obviously mules for the soon to be banend accounts.65.30.20.38 10:02, 14 August 2007 (CDT)
 * So they banned the DUPERS, as it should be. Alright. [[Image:ShidoSig_moebius2.gif]] 10:18, 14 August 2007 (CDT)

ye wat was the whole deal with the duping thing? first of all, how do u dupe something in an online game!!! im jst curious, so dont ban me anet :D
 * You won't get banned, I think it was either people saying they could dupe something and then stealing the item. There might have been a bug with reconnect, something like person A trades item with B, forces a disconnect by killing the GW process, and then keeps the item (IDK if this works, I have never tryed it) remember: Guildwiki is not anet, you won't get banned for asking but you will be banned if you exploit bugs you know are there.

 * That is about how it worked. Start with one, make a 2nd, then 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128 etc etc --- [[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG]] -- (s)talkpage 07:03, 7 December 2007 (UTC)


 * It was not done during player trades, and it was certainly not exponential, but linear, one at a time. What I heard is that the lag was created during the trading with the NPC, and thus receiving the Armbrace, but not losing your gems.  I may be wrong, but that's what I heard.  A little late, anyway.  I'm glad it's over.  RoseOfKali [[Image:RoseOfKaliSIG.png]] 06:35, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

Why collectable drop?
Why is the armbrace stated as a collectable drop? If you look (here in this wiki) what a collectable drop is you read "A Collectable drop (or Trophy) is an item that drops from a specific species of foes when they are slain.". The armbrace doesn't drop at all. I think "collector item" or "collector reward" would be better.
 * It's beacause when you manage to kill Mallyx without using Ursan, he drops 1 for all members of your group :P j/k, but yeh, it would seem more appropriate to re-label it collector item or reward.  ∞ ∞ IPO ∞ ∞  21:18, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
 * It's so it stacks in inventory. Why does this matter?   Well, when you want to buy a panda... --GW-Seventh 12:13, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
