My most epic loot ever? Well, it was one that lasted me for so very long, on my mage. Silly though it was, killing Gahz'ranka week after week, until finally it was mine! That's right, Tome of Polymorph: Turtle! It was much much more visually appealling to see that little turtle than the fuzzy sheep (Although it reminded me of poor Speedy, the pet my friend made Soothing Turtle Bisque out of... /cry) and I used it for all of Vanilla WoW, and even through The Burning Crusade.But to my dismay, one day I was protecting an hourglass, only to find the Future Me turning things into penguins! I always wanted to see the shocked and slightly disappointed look on my face to see that!...Oh wait, I got to! Boy, was my Past Me's face pale...though I'm glad I got over that jawless phase...
I think the most epic loot I can recall is getting my guild's first Netherwind Robes from Nefarian in Blackwing Lair. We certainly weren't the fastest progression guild back then, just downing Nef for the first times right before BC launched, but boy did it feel good to finally take him out. Having played since the beginning, Netherwind Regalia was something to strive for as a mage for a long time. When I finally got the robe... that was just a great moment in my mage's career.
I've fallen ill to a virus and was sick in bed all day feeling terrible. Eventually late in the night I awoken in a much better mood so I decided to log onto Warcraft to do some dailies. Mainly the ones in Stormpeaks that awards you the spoils. Quickly I destroyed the proto-drake eggs & turned in my quest. I opened the bag and there was no snowballs... no cheese... It was the White Polar Bear Mount! Man after such a terrible day it was a great feeling to be so lcky to have this mount drop for me. :)
Well lets see. I'm a Tauren wanting that 50 mount achievement to get that Albino Drake. As most of you with Tauren out there know, we can hardly ride any mount. Blizzard says it's cause we're too big....just scale the mounts like you do with all the other ones! I don't mind if I can't fit in a door, I'll just right click my mount off >.< But anyway I'm a mount collector; I want anything I can get. I've tallied up the ammount of gold I've spent on my mounts and flyer training and it comes to an insane 14,832 gold! Now, if I were ANYTHING else race-wise I would have spent probably half that. Epic flyer mounts cost 200 gold each and the regular ground mounts you can buy from a home faction at exalted is only 80g, how fair is that to us Tauren? I mean seriously Blizzard could you BE more racist? Sigh, enough about my complaining, I have farmed and I've ground rep and I've pvped (and I can't tolerate pvp )and I only need 2 more mounts to get to 50...The Armored Black Bear would be nice to have and I've been in many a raid. Only need Magni Bronzebeard. Sadly the Allies on my realm are fairly mean. We actually got a raid of 80...yes 80 PEOPLE! to kill Magni and more than 150 allies show up to stop us. So after NINE HOURS of trying, our raid broke up. What makes me more mad is that you see ALL of the allies on my server with those black bears, I've seen as low as 65 have one and not ONE Horde with it...makes me quite sad that the opposite faction is keeping me from realizing a dream just so that they can get honorable kills and whatnot. My guild is not a hard core raiding guild, we've always been laid back. So we never got around to the Amani War Bear plus only 2 guilds on horde side on my server could even DO the timed runs, 'Course all the ally guilds could. I've taken up farming Stratholme in hopes that the Deathcharger will drop, more than 100 runs and still nothing...I feel forsaken in the hopes of getting that Albino drake. I mean...I even have BOTH the Halaa pvp mounts...Reins of the Dark Riding Talbuk AND Reins of the Dark War Talbuk do you have any idea what kind of farming that took? As a Druid...you naturally love the bear. I might be specced Moonkin, but I still love my Bear Form :) Who doesn't love a bear with horns? Black bears happen to be my favorite of all bears. I actually want Blizz to make it so whatever color of your fur is on your Tauren that's what color your form would be too. Making my bear form completely black :D. If any of you fellows from WoWhead actually read this post, I believe It's destined to come to me. I could show those allies: "Hey not all of you can have this one!" Making me only one mount away from my dream flyer. And that is what my most epic dream is, and always will be. I've worked so much harder than the other non-tauren out there flying around on their Albino Drakes making me cry every time I see one. ;_; I feel the tears forming now behind my big pretty red Tauren eyes.
one of the most epic loots I got was my Winterspring Frostsaber.
When the Achievements hit Live my girlfriend made it her sole duty to get her Stinker the Skunk pet. She had about 6-7 vanity pets at the time and soon started to scour the Auction house and vendors that she could (horde side) gathering any and all. She was lucky to come across the White Kitten on a neutral auction house and had a friend of hers help with the Westfall Chicken. It came down to her last pet and the main one she really at that time wanted was the elusive Emerald Whelping. I decided then and there to farm hours on end for days to get her that whelping. Finally roughly 11 days 21 hours and 13 mins later ( i swear i wasn't keeping the time) there it was. She got her achievement and her "Lil Stinker" as she now calls him. I know plenty of people have farmed that Whelping and they know the pain of farming for it. That to me was an epic moment.
The most epic loot i have ever gotten would have to be after about a solid almost year of raiding on my warrior did i finally get the kings defender to drop in kara and that is after so long of everytime my paladin would be in kara it would drop about 80% of the time was probably the worst wait of my life for a piece of loot but man it was the best feeling to finally have that sword in my warriors hands sometimes not getting the epic drop for awhile makes it that much sweeter when u do finally get it.

My most Epic loot is the one i'm going to have in my mailbox in a few days of course !
Well to be honest i've always wanted to have The Unstoppable Force in the pre-tbc wow so i began to do some bg's.. while i was slaying some hordies (i am sorry for that) and farming some honor I realised that i was in need of some new armor than a new weapon so i bought knight captains plate hauberg armor first.. i thought "ohh c'mon i will farm and The Unstoppable Force will be mine and never be gone" well after farming 4,5k honor (The Unstoppable Force price was 4,7k if my memory is correct) i got the knight captain's plate leggings cause i realised that i needed the 2 item bonus set.. later on 3-4 days i bought the gloves of the set and the boots.. well at that time i was getting really bored of getting any other items and stopped playing wow.. When i heard about the Burning Crusade release I've had a flashback and remembered my sweet and glamourous Unstoppable Force! So i bought gamecard and once i logged in i saw the experience bar and thought that i should s...w the honor farming and get ready for some exp and real farming! well after some hours and tons of exp.. i killed a mob and i thought that the drop said "The Unstoppable Force" I was so happy to get it that i started screaming and yelling (well i did some stupid dance like humans but its i ok i got over it now) After all this mess i press Shift+B and fell of the chair having a heart attack.. It was The Stoppable Force.. P.s. I am not from United States but i wanted to write my story! :P thanks though guys!
I have yet to ever get an epic drop. I have been playing for about a year and the closest thing that I have gotten to epic was the pvp gear that i spent days on trying to get. I think I spent about 1 month trying to get my pvp gear and weapon. Ive done quest and I have gone exploring, but never found anyhting other than a green drop. Quiet agervating cuz everyday people that are in my guild are always posting their epic gear, weapons, mounts, ect.. and all i can brag about is my pvp gear. Since the new expansion dropped All my gear is obsolete. I cant brag about anything anymore because the next person comes up and has somehting green and is better than mine. So, this would be my first epic drop that I ever recieved. besides my epic timber wolf mount is kinda old.
I wanted to get a Captured Firefly and I read on here that some people have killed close to a thousand to get one of these non-combat pets. So I decided it was a good idea at the time and I started on my farming. Not too far in, only 2 kills, it dropped. 2 DAMN KILLS! YEAH!1!
My most epic loot I got just a few hours ago. Since wrath hit I've been grinding argent crusade rep to get the title and (since I'm a holy paladin) the helm and ring. I've been running instances with my tabard on, though I've also had to grind up Wyrmrest Accord and Dalaran for some upgrades as well. I finally got halfway through revered on Argent Crusade so I knuckled down and kept that tabard on the last few days. I've also been grinding the Troll Patrol quests, always getting them done in under 20 minutes. The closest one was 2 minutes left, scared the crap out of me that I wouldn't get the extra bonus, but I still haven't done that daily group in over 18 minutes time. Did a few runs tonight and got within 1500 rep from exalted or so, and I hadn't done my dailys yet. So I did them and I was around 800 away from exalted and was about to go to bed when I noticed that they were going to reset soon. So I went and did some other dailys until it reset.As soon as they did I flew straight to those dailys I had just done and just as I was turning in another Troll Patrol (with 9 minutes left to spare) I got both achievements for the title and getting their reputation to exalted. I quick switched my title and then flew over to Icecrown to get my two new epics.Another short trip to Dalaran to port to Stormwind, three gems purchased at the auction house for my helm and chest piece... and now I'm sitting at 19k mana and have two more epic items. Definitely an epic night!
