i can honestly say i made an EPIC find on wowhead today ! A new mount "Big Battle Bear" well its my last chance to win a loot card so ...... PLEASE! ;)
The most epic drop I ever got came from a quest. Back in the day, pre BC, farming Timbermaw rep was one of the most grueling things to do in the game. That Defender of the Timbermaw trinket was too fun to pass up though so I farmed and farmed. At the same time there was a warrior who also was doing it and a race insued. For days there was lack of sleep on both our ends but I finally beat him to exalted. When I got to exalted I recieved the quest to kill the demon to get the trinket. 3 hours of searching for people to help and I had the whole group but a tank. Luckily that warrior had just finished getting to exalted and tanked it. So we both got our Defender of the Timbermaw at the same time and ran around Orgrimmar summoning it everytime the cooldown was up. One of the most fun and epic things I've done in the game :)
That would probably be back in vanilla WoW When I was raiding a lot and we had been stuck on the boss before Nefarian (Don't remember the name) for a very long time, then 2 or 3 weeks later we got the sucker and not too late after that we got Server First Nefarian, that feeling was great! But even better he dropped the sexy staff for my Warlock (Staff of the Shadow Flame) and this drop made me very happy because I was (at that time) Wielding the most powerful staff in the game and I got it all because of not beeing Greedy nor Needy all the time I was in my guild and usally passed on stuff for others all the time and I guess this was my 'reward'. This was a happy day for me in WoW!
Well, to be serious. About a month back I spent a night talking to a GM, and he was minorly hitting on me. Well during our hour long conversation, I mentioned that I wish my account was an Original Collector's Edition. Well after out chat I logged off in Theramore, the next day I log on, see I have mail.. Run over, to see a Dolanaar Gift Voucher! So I freak out, grab it and go as fast as I could to get my panda.Just to re-say - My had no Collector's Edition at the time.
Being a tank pre-BC... it was all about the Dark Iron pieces. I think I ran more zerg runs to the Dark Anvil and Black Forge than I actually did runs with the gear on. Epic pieces and epic runs just to get them made... except for the shoulders! WTF was up with that?
Finding the epic quality bow Hurricane while questing on my druid Pre-BC. Was just so awesome cause it was the first epic I had ever seen in my bags :D
After a long week of work and family issues, I decided to jump on my account and have a little bit of fun and to relax. When I got onto my account it was to my dismay that someone hacked my account and swiped my gold (but was nice enough to leave me my gear). I was in a state of shock/frustration, but I was not going to let that ruin my game. It was the Hallows End event and I was going to take advantage of it with gold or without it.So some buddies and I went to kick some headless horseman butt in SM and kick his butt we did. On the fourth butt kicking the headless horseman mount dropped, I rolled as well as everyone else, but sadly I did not get it (it was a little disappointing but not the end of the world). On the fifth and final try we beat the tricky treats right out of him and low and behold the mount dropped again, I rolled and was again disappointed to see I rolled a 17, but to my astonishment I looked in the chat box and saw everyone saying "Grats Gooch", I looked and saw that I was the highest roll out of a 2 a 9 and a 4. It was a nice change of pace for my frustrating week. And to turn events around even more Blizzard was able to refund my lost gold the next day.Overall this is probably my most memorable moment of Warcraft.
