Seasatchel

Hi, you created the Seasatchel and I cannot for the life of me figure out what this thing is or where it comes from. It doesn't show up on the trading post and other fansites have no information about it. Do you remember how you came across this weapon? Looking through your contributions it seems likely it was a mystic forge recipe. Do you remember what the recipe was, or any other information about it?

Hah, good observation, not too long after launch I went through every level 80 exotic weapon on gw2db, one of the first datamining sites, looking for the unique names/skins. Most of them did turn out to be MF recipes, some were boss drops (Final Rest, much?), and some were just random weapons. But for a weapon to not be found yet after over an entire year? THAT is a surprise to me. The texture, model and stats are there in the game's source, but I guess it's just not accessible.

Just speculating now, but chances are it has to do with some underwater boss or event. There's the three champions at the very west of Malchor's Leap, or the one(s?) at the south end of Cursed Shore, though I don't recall either of them being world events. Maybe it's the Sun God event in Caledon Forest, and much like for Final Rest, they somehow forgot to put the item in the drop tables.

In any case, that's about as much as I know, thanks for bringing this to my attention -- and I who thought Final Rest was the very last weapon to be discovered in-game. Hah! Sanzath (talk) 05:04, 2 December 2013 (UTC)
