Probably one of my most epic drops wasn't initially epic, but it became epic.Back in the day, classic WoW, they released the tier 0.5 quests. I didn't have all the pieces of tier 0, but the ones I needed, I would probably get as I was doing the quests.It came down to the last two pieces of the puzzle, the Strat 45 run and the Magister's Leggings. Knowing that I wasn't going to be able to get the Strat 45 run easily, I figured Id probably get the leggings to drop while I was learning the instance.I ran that dungeon so many times, the leggings never dropped, but I couldn't get the 45 run in time either.Surprisingly, I was able to get strat 45 run done before the xpack, but still no leggings.I tried running strat on my own as I was leveling up, but even at 70, I couldn't solo the place, I tried to get groups as often as I could, or respond to random people LFG. I probably ran the instance a hundred times to no avail. One day, a guildie of mine and I decided to try duoing it. We died a few times, but we had a ton of fun. I had forgotten about my leggings when voila, they were finally there! It wasn't too long before they were upgraded to the tier 0.5 set.
This one takes the cake. So me and my Brother set up our computers in our garage every weekend to do some mass heroic farming and arenas. So after a few runs, we decide to do Heroic Magister's Terrace. So we clear all the way up to Kael, down him, easy stuff. I get up and got a drink, knowing that theres nothing I needed from Kael (Or so I thought!). As I come back I check the loot: Just another quickening blade *sigh*...but then something caught my eye. It was the Hawkstrider! Now my brother already took the liberty of making me PASS on it (thanks Mike) but we had a tradition that i picked up from raiding. We would cover our chat log and click the roll, and wait to the see the Icon enter our bags. Now take this looting secret with my brother's luck, and sure enough he was imitating the hawkstrider emote everytime he passed by my door later that night.And that is how Sshockerr on Korgath (US) got his hawkstrider, toppling any other loot stories I could ever think of.
i had never ever found an epic... so it would be so cool to have a bear frome World Of Warcraft trading card... :) i hope .. the best crimas gift will come to me :)have a nice crismas to you!
What the heck? There's a contest for epic loots? That's EPIC!
My most epic loot out of everything I've gotten would be this very bear. IF I won it that is.
A couple months after WoW release, think i was had just dinged 54 (back when the cap was 60), I got a Destiny while leveling up in Western Plaguelands. Me being a mage, and having a rl paladin friend, I gave him the sword. He used that sword for a very long time until it was finally replaced in BC.
Jeklik's Crusher. My old paladin main got this, put a crusader enchant on it and samshed some serious skull! Ah, good ol' days *nostalgia*
