still my only solo epic loot world-drop: The Green Tower
Back in the day of Old-World WoW, we had done a MC run.We didn't expect to get far, but we ended up going all the way, eventually up to Rag.We dropped him for a guild first, and the experience was truly epic.I mean, how often do you get to kill a Lieutenant of a God?
Farming that Arctic Fur right after hitting 400 leatherworking on my feral druid.90 stam emboss ftw!
The week it took to finish my Epic Bow quest. Back when I was a noob huntard in mc/bwl, in vanilla wow. When I killed the last demon and went to turn it in, that was the best, by far. I STILL have Rhok'delar & Lok'delar in my bank.
So I was running the headless horseman for the nth time with my guildies (one of them REALLY REALLY wanted the mount) and it was our last summon. We completely owned him and then the mount was there! We were all happy and all rolled need on it, but our tank, who wasn't the guildy who really wanted it, won it (I should mention I was on my alt at the time). So I told them that we should summon my main over and see if anything else will drop that's nice, the pet, sword, etc. so we did and I summoned him for our 6th time that night. Once he was dead, I looted him and, to our amazement, a need or greed option came up for yet ANOTHER Headless Horseman's Mount! I was whispering my friends and stuff to say that it dropped twice in one run and everyone but me and the tank rolled, since he already had it and i was preoccupied, so I looked at the rolls and my guildy who really wanted it rolled a 96 (so I thought it was pretty much his and I'd roll just for fun). I rolled and then I saw the funniest thing ever. I rolled a 97! So in the end I thought, well that's fair, it was my summon, therefore I should get the loot =P. And there ya have it, epic loot under epic circumstances!
I would have to say, back in the day I got a Staff of Jordan about 2 years ago. It was by accident really, I was in STV attempting to run away from pirates but there were more mobs in front of me also. So, I decided to fight it out as a resto druid. It was a pleasant suprise. I spammed GC for a good hour or so. Those were the days.
Most Epic loot that ever droped for me (and probably the most appealing) Was when we almost had a full wipe on Rag after about 3 attempts, i was playing my rogue and was combat swords at the time. We had Rag down to around 2% no healers or anything left just me and my brother on the computer next to me. When i noticed that my brother had his rez screen up i knew i was the only one in the raid left so as a last ditch effort i poped evasion and slice and dice and all the ap/speed things that i had in my aresenal. I slowly got Rags health down and at about 3k health left and 2 seconds on evasion left i knew it may not turn out how i wanted it to. My last 5 combo points were up and i threw in one last eviscerate which crit for 2.5k (swords) and a sinister strike for 500. Rag was dead and my Vent channle blew up with people cheering and yelling i cheered to. Especially when i learned that Perditions Blade AND rogue teir 2 legs had dropped Although the Loot master had an immense amount of DKP cause he was decked in T1 and this was our first rag kill ever he would easily out roll me on both. But, like a lot of comments ive read before posting this i noticed my chatlog say that i had recieved both Perditions blade and the T2 legs. I am to this very day grateful to the loot master and thank him whenever i see him.
The most epic loot I have ever had drop for me was the T4 headpiece for Priest/Warrior. Me and my buddy were with out guild mates and we were downing Prince in Karazhan. About half the raid including me died during the fight but the rest of them managed to pull it off. This was also the first time I had ever managed to pull off Prince, for some reason he had always been a problem with my guild hehe. After ressing the party he dropped and I saw the head piece drop I about crapped myself. It was my first Tier item and my buddy also wanted it. I rolled after passing and nobody else had seemed to need it and I know my friend wanted it but he didn't say anything so I assumed he was just giving it to me. After we decided to move on he came back on Ventrilo and we learned that he was throwing up all over the place. I felt so bad, especially since I had even won another epic head piece at the chest event! I always thought this would make a good story XD to this day if I remind my friend of that time, he would be a little mad about it haha.
