Collector Locations

[dustbunny]

I recently went around the desert and rounded up as many as I could find. Here's the result. The armors are of the top end ratings that you won't be able to craft until you ascend. The weapons, foci, staves, and wands have similar stats to those available to PvP premades. Weapons and staves still have room for upgrades via grips, hafts, pommels, wrappings, etc. See below for location and what each one wants/offers. It is possible that I overlooked some collector. If someone knows of one that I missed, please let me know. The original map is credited to Moomanibe and his cartographer helpers.

A few notes about the items:
• I did this with a monk, so the monk armor is offered. If you visit with another profession, you will get different armor offering, of course. When I did this with a warrior, all the monk pieces are replaced by ringmail pieces and helms. I don't believe there is a difference between the same armor piece offered by two different collectors, but I could be wrong since I've never traded for 2 of the same armor from two different collectors.
• The same weapon, foci, or wand offered by 2 different collectors will likely be different. The difference is the intrinsic stat they come with. For example, the healing ankh offered by Kraviec the Cused comes with additional energy+15, energy regeneration -1, health+30. The healing ankh offered by Mourn Drakespur comes with 20% chance improved casting speed using healing prayer skills and 20% chance improved skill recharge using healing prayer skills.
• Although it is labeled a long sword, the long sword Cinder Linnwood offers looks like a rin blade, not a long sword that you find off monster drops. It comes with +15% damage while in a stance. I ran out of jade mandibles, or I would have found out what property spawns on the longsword that Uderit Ignis offers.

[edit: added the warrior armor pieces, with information from Dr. Atsab]
[edit: added Brandon Harlin]

[Asrial]

At some point in time, I'll compile all this info into a nice neat format too. Unless someone beats me to it.

[Jeff Action]

I really need to find the collector for Searing Ribcages, dropped from the Flesh Golems in Perdition Rock, any help would be appreciated.

[MasterDinadan]

In case you are wonderring, the exact stats on the earth wand given by the Topaz Crest collector in Skyward Reach just outside Augury Rock does it's listed damage and also has 20% chance to improve recharge on earth skills.
I'll try to get more Topaz Crests because I can solo drakes very easily... then I will list the other items I get.

[MasterDinadan]

Ginder Linwood's Storm Artifact gives 20% for both faster casting and recharge time for air magic.
John Verado's Cruel Staff gives 20% for both faster casting and recharge time for blood magic...

I'm noticing that the caster weapons offered by collectors are VERY VERY good... I had no idea you could get perfect staves from collectors.

[kaheiyeh]

There's a collector just outside Port Sledge in Witman's Folly that wants 5 Intricate Grawl Necklaces. He trades for a max damage Ascalon Bow with some stats I forgot and 3 other things which are focus etc.

[thegriffgeeks]

Hagnon warblade
This one is right outside Camp Rankor (Snake Dance exit)



Hoknil the greater
Not sure what this one gives because he offered me nothing. (the warrior with me got nothing also) This guy is right next to a materials crafter (Crafter Magnor)



Cember Goreaxe (near the Ice Caves of Sorrow)

[Asrial]

Here's a question that will help me, and other newbies..

Can someone post a cutoff point list?

Like...

All the collector drops you find pre Yak's Bend won't be used at Yak's Bend or beyond.

All the collector drops you find pre Lion's Arch won't be used at Lion's Arch or beyond.

In example.

I'd hate to get rid of my 150 Fetid Carapaces if some collector way off in the game is going to ask for 100 of them

[XeNoGeArZ]

hey that is a great post, dustbunny
alot of good collector finds, thegriffgeeks

where is teh original poster? i need that list to be updated so i can just do a search for the items i have.

[Kui]

Am working on it. Griffgeeks, if you could make sure to have the local map interface open when taking screenshots that'd be awesome. Would help pinpoint the collector locations. [Screenshots with just what they're offering doesn't give much as to their location].

Updating!

Yes, trying to remember. Sometimes it's hard because I'm not by myself but with a team not anxious to log collector's.

[rithien]

the longsword that you trade for 5 jade mandibles also looks like a rinblade and has 15% while enchanted.

[axid]

heh i have a list as well, but mines inclusive of droknars and mineral srpings areas... was keeping it for my guild only but since this is out, i might as well share with everyone... *lazy to check with main list, so just gonna post everything*

*ALL ITEMS ARE PERFECT STATS*
eg. staffs 11-22dmg +10energy, wands 11-22dmg, foci +12energy, swords 15-22dmg, bows 15-28dmg, hammers 19-35dmg
those that i have collected before i will post their stats...
even the best YELLOW item will be less useful than one of these... as their innate bonuses are perfect stats...
after u have these items the only reason to hunt for rares is to salvage the upgrades to add on to these items...

*ALL ITEMS REQUIRE 9 IN THE LISTED SKILL TO USE*
eg. jeweled staff, 11-22dmg (require 9 illusion), longsword 15-22 dmg (requires 9swordsmanship)
