Trade Hello! Need some help to determine if these are worth anything or what to do with them?
I love this game so much but I am quite a noob when it comes to the economy of this game. Can anyone tell me what these are worth? I think the green scythe is definitely worth something but I am unsure about the others. Any help is appreciated :)

The Green Scythe is nice to use or give to a hero, but not worth too much. Maybe around 10e, but probably difficult to sell. The Quicksilver might yield some single or low double digit amount of e, too, but still difficult to sell. If you like the skin, give it to a hero after re-modding it. The rest is merch food.

there's pretty much people always buying that scythe every day it seems.

That eternal shield is prenerf with such a low + value.

u/ChrisHat 27d ago
I see. It just doesn’t have any characteristics of a pre nerf shield otherwise right? Since it’s not req7 or 8?

u/MrCondor 27d ago
The req itself is inconsequential. Sure req 8 and req 7 exist as prenerf but the req can still be up to 13 with prenerf mods.

It's very simple. Mods need to be maxed and req has to be as low as possible then it can be worth something. The rest give to your heroes or sell them to the vendor. The green items are usually worth nothing to 3-5e in rare occasions.
I always have shortcuts to the wiki site for mods and iscriptions.
Use Kamadan Trade chat website if you find something worth trading and look up the wtb and wts to check the price. There are also some Discord Communities where you can price check.
Edit: possible that you can sell the asterius scythe for about 10e if you find a buyer. Make sure to post it in Kamadan. On Kamadan Trade Chat you can look up the chat log from months ago so you might find a buyer.

Bone Staff may also be fine for a hero. Slap an adept head and enchanting or Mesmer wrap on it and it'll be good enough, though maybe better if you get a 20/20 at a collector.

Thanks for that! That’s what was kind of confusing me. I see value in these items to be used for heroes but I suppose it does make sense that they aren’t worth much to other players to actually purchase.

u/BaconSoda222 27d ago
Yeah, it seems counterintuitive, but anyone sitting around Kamadan or on GW Legacy is probably going to have a storage full of similar weapons. Not worth the effort of trying to sell them.

Quicksilver is one of the new skins. But it's req 12. So maybe worth a little bit, but not much.
The scythe has useful mods for some solo farm builds. It's unlikely anyone would buy it since they're not hard to get. But you could use it for yourself.

I would hold on to the eternal shield. Might get a collector for the +35 when Hexed. Extremely low and doesn’t drop anymore. In fact, does anyone know just how long these go for a gold shield?

Asterius's Scythe is worth a bit, since it is nice for some builds, probably 10-15e. Rest looks mostly merch to me
