List of exclusive weapon drops
From Guild Wars Wiki
Jump to navigationJump to search
The following weapons feature exclusive skins that can only be found as random drops from foes or chests, but not from collectors or weaponsmiths.
“Various weapons from pre-order bonuses, special promotions and a few weapons previously exclusive to the PvP Reward system have been added to loot tables across Tyria, Cantha, Elona, and Eye of the North. These weapons only appear as Rare quality drops (with a few exceptions as noted) and are randomized rather than featuring the fixed stats and free creation of their bonus-item incarnations. Rods, Staffs, Shields, and Focuses can also drop with a variety of stat requirements.

Trivia[edit]
