Hellgate: London - Show us your loot! [56k warning]

[Knightshade Dragon]

I'll kick it off - I got a unique item last night.  And what an item it is!  Here are a few shots of my new helm, as well as the Unique in question.
Click the pictures for the full size goodness without all the resizing artifacting nonsense.

The new helm!



And now the new armor...just out of reach!

[Blackjack]

Hey, I've been asking -- where the heck are the "stashes"? Are they only for subscribers or something? The manual mentions them, but I've not seen any in any of the stations as of yet (maybe I'm overlooking something  )

I'm just level 10, don't have anything too great right now. Weapon wise, got a rare rocket launcher yesterday:

A "quote" from George W. Bush included, no less. 

Though my Volt rifle is my bread and butter:

See the boxes he's standing right in front of in the third picture? Look for that. They're free for everybody to use (although Subscribers get more of it), and they're always within a stone's throw away from the merchant person in town.

[Hiccup]

I'll post some pictures when I get home tonight, but I've been lucky with weapon drops.

Legendaries:
Cluster Rifle
Sniper Rifle
Mriv
Volt Rifle
Rocket Launcher
(2 Random swords now on my alt)

3 unique weapons so far, though 2 aren't all that spectaular.
The Grandmaster
Taylors Pistol (Rocket Launcher)
Some pistol

The stash is a train station locker.  They have little numbers on them in red.  They are square. 

[Hotfreak]

BlackJack, 2 or 3 of us responded to you in the other thread; but if you still can't find the lockers, hit me up when I'm online and I'll show them to you .  I'm Xflagger and just got into the guild last night (thanks ROTC! again ).

[Blackjack]

I'm wearing this bug-eyed gas mask thing, how am I supposed to see anything at foot level?  I guess I'm missing my nose in front of my face, but I looked all over near the merchant in Charring Cross Station (or whatever it's called) and didn't see lockers. I'm sure at some point tonight I'll slap myself in the side of the head like in one of those V-8 vegetable juice commercials. 

[CeeKay]

They're not always near a merchant though.  I forgot that the one in Covent Cross (or whatever the name of the second station is) is actually a bit away from the main area. Just wander around the station and look for something that looks like what's in the background of KD's 3rd pic.  of course you could always take a risk and ask on the chat channel

Yeah, just grab me or someone else tonight.  Once you see the first one, you'll see all the rest.

Ceekay, I think there are 2 in that station, one by the tracks and one by the vendor.  I could be wrong, though.  It's happened before.

[depward]

I'll post some when I can tonight.  Though, I will say I've been extremely unlucky with drops - had a legendary shield drop, a couple of legendary mods, but that's it  =(

I'm a level 11 Marksman with crappy, crappy guns... though I do have a modded-out Zeus   

BTW Ron - where did those flameguards drop?  I want some!

They dropped in one of the chests in Picadilly Hell. 

[Zarkon]

I got mine off a boss in Chocolate park.

They're also subscriber only, and only drop through the 11th.

Somehow I got some to drop off of the first big boss you fight in the second station (vague i know.  But Cant remember names).  I was level 4!  Won't be able to use those for a little while.

[Blackjack]

One thing I'm struggling with is knowing intuitively what is a "great" weapon, what's a "good" one and what's something I should be replacing ASAP. I just don't have a frame of reference (my engy's level 10). I mean, are my 93, 83 etc. base damage weapons good, bad, mediocre, awful? I'm doing fine in combat (not boringly powerful, not frustratingly underpowered) so I guess I'm not really inclined to get jealous of someone else's Uuber Oomber Mega Zug Zapper but it seems pretty clear I'm not getting any Randomly Uber Drops as of yet.

[Hiccup]

Here's my gear. (lots of pics inc)

[depward]

Umm... holy crap nice loot     I WANT A LEGENDARY GUN

[Knightshade Dragon]

Jeeze - borrow one...apparently some folks have 3 of em! (or more!!)

[Arkon]

Maybe if someone would get me into the guild I could share some loot....

[Goldchamp]

same here bastards someone invite Goldchamp

[Hiccup]

I'm not using the rocket launchers...actually, I'm using a green atm 

[Blackjack]

I guess now I know everything I'm using sux.  But the screenies give me a clearer idea of the storage boxes visually so thanks.

[ROTC1983]

I shot you an invite arkon...it isn't obvious though when you log in.  I will shoot you another invite

[depward]

My two contributions - a shield I can't use and my laser rifle with one of my legendary mods on it:

[Zarkon]

I've got quite a few unID'd legendary items sitting in my stash to trade for Marksmen items.  I'll take pictures in a bit.

[Zarkon]

Here's the first four...

[Zarkon]

And more...

[Knightshade Dragon]

What sort of renob posts pictures of unidentified items?  Spend the 25 Palladium and identify them will ya?!

[Destructor]

And that's nuts - I had nothing but +Luck items on EVERY piece of armor, and I NEVER got that many Legendaries in my 15 Marksman. What few I got were never designed for my class (which is REALLY a pain in the ass, IMHO).

that does get annoying, having your inventory jammed up with look and only 1 or 2 items that you can use.  say, does the game have it's own screenshot device or are you guys using FRAPS?  I'm not fond of FRAPS as it only saves in the .bmp format unless you buy the full version (and I don't do enough screen captures to justify it).

[Knightshade Dragon]

I believe you can use /screenshot in the horrific resembles-chatting-on-a-cell-phone chat system to take a screenshot.  I'm using FRAPS.

[Zarkon]

I use printscreen to get the screenshot.

And they're unID'd because that's how they get traded (If you remember your D2 at all. )

[CeeKay]

thanks guys!  I was just looking at X-Fire's website and noticed it does screenshot too- I'll have to give that a shot.

[Knightshade Dragon]

Psssh.  Only a fool buys unmarked packages.

(we need to talk about me buying some of those...   

[CeeKay]

so, I was happily snapping away taking screenies using X-Fire, logged out and went to check them.....


and found out I was using the wrong key for taking them.  I thought I had it set to F12 but apparently not 

[Arkon]

Here is a few of the items I have sitting in storage at the moment:

[EngineNo9]

It's good to see that post-apocalyptic London is still full of bread, cheese, cake, fuit, donuts and whatever else that's filling your bags there. 

[CrayolaSmoker]

It's good to see that post-apocalyptic London is still full of bread, cheese, cake, fuit, donuts and whatever else that's filling your bags there. 

It's also quite heartening to see that post-apocalyptic London has not forgotten the valuable contributions of Dr. Emmett Brown and Private Joker.

And I throw most of it away as it all produces crap. Stupid events.

[Blackjack]

These boots are nothing much to crow about but I was happy to find some lower level (for L8 Marksman) Legendary loot finally:

[Blackjack]

My Marksman finally got a decent Legendary helm (though the Minion health buff is useless-my engy could sure use it):


That qualified as a bit of an improvement.
