Hello,

I wonder if I could get some help from the druid community.

Background:
When we do old world content I usually end up with backpacks full of spells that might or might not be rare/useful and should be kept in our bank for our members.

Goal:
To compile a list that I can use to distinguish between

- eventually useful for a member
- sell to the next vendor to free up space (yay :) )

I am aware that every player has a different understanding of what is a rare spell - maybe it helps if I describe our guild a bit, we are a tight knit of lvl 55 to 65 players but far from ueber ... :)

Below is a list of pre-pop spells (excluding ancient spells) that I got from Lucy.

Added some comments for those spells I can remember.

* rare
+ useful
(n) see note--comes from a specific encounter, you're not going to run into it as a random drop, though research may be an option

Off the top of my head, spells that might be worth saving (particularly if anyone is going for a complete spellbook):

Kunark:

(1) Only comes from spell turnin quest in FV; uses Circle of Summer, Circle of Winter, Spirit of Scale, or Form of the Howler
(2) Arch Lich in ssra; highly contested. Research components are rare.
(3) I've gotten it from a named vampire in tenebrous...I think it can come from grieg's end somewhere too? Not sure about research component rarity.
(4) Deranged Underbulk in the deep. Not sure about research component rarity.

Yanno, I'd recommend a different methodology of doing this. What the guild I'm in now did, was set a lower limit on the spells they'd bank, IE Level 58/59 is a good starting place because a druid cant easily obtain those spells soloing.

And they kept three copies of each tradable spell banked and sold the rest. Their reasoning is any member is going to want a complete spell book. Obviously some spells that drop of mobs they dont kill were never going to make it to the bank, but this pretty much covered them for luclin spells and higher.
