My best epic drop loot ever was of course the very first epic I ever saw dropping, and actually won!Should be around 3 years ago, when I did my very first Zul'Farrak. I liked the instance and stuff and right at the start a mob dropped Nightblade (http://www.wowhead.com/?item=1982). I really was like...woaw...a purple item? I will never forget that time, it was the very first epic I actually won ( Of course we all needed) and actually could use. I was so proud on it I showed it off to everyone for 2 weeks after I got it :D
One night in Steamvaults, after countless runs of not even seeing either of the Beast Lord items drop, I was lamenting in party chat about that fact. Wouldn't you know it? Warlord Kalithresh dropped both the shoulders and the leggings that run.As the only hunter (and only mail wearer in the party) they kindly let me roll need on both items.Not purple, but totally epic just the same.
The most epic drop I got has to be Fiery Warhorse's Reins. I was with a guild that ran Kara every week and we never saw them drop for months. By time they dropped we where on a roll for loot, looting system because we really where only doing Kara for badges at that point. When the Reins dropped The first person rolled a 99 to get them. Everyone thought it was a lost cause to roll, but everyone did anyways. I rolled near the end and wasnt even paying attention untill people started yelling in vent that I was a lucky................. I look down and sure enough I rolled a 100. I was so happy.
the most epic drop i've ever gotten was the one mount i've never worked so hard for in my wow career, The Winterspring Wintersaber. Mind you, this is before the patch where blizzard made it easier to obtain. I love that mount even still today with all the hype about the new ones. Sucker for the classic i guess.
Back in the 60's days when I was playing my paladin, all I ever wanted was the judgement crown from onyxia.Unfortunately, we got the rogue head litterally every time, twice, well ok not EVERY time but it happened loads.After a few weeks of farming ZG, MC, ony etc. I had decided to transfer to another server with some irl friends on. On that they we did Onyxia, would be my last time as I certainly would not get into a raiding guild right away on the new server.And yes, last time doing Ony for a good while, might've been my last time at level 60, don't quite remember, it finally dropped!Threw all my DKP on it as I was about to transfer and wow.. it's just simply awesome.Too bad I actually disenchanted the judgement crown along with my judgement kilt into TBC... Simply the best looking armor ever created in my opinion!
Kind of two parts of this were epic. First, My guild had been working on killing vaelastrasz in Blackwing lair (old school) for weeks with many MANY 3 and 4% wipes. This evening everyone is pumped and we are on our 6th and final attempt at taking out the dragon and everything is looking perfect, then 5 healers get essence of the red , one of whom took out a lot of dpsers. We get lucky and the essence on the MT does not kill him when it explodes and he keep holding on, the 3 healers are working like mad to keep him alive. The dragon hits 4%, 3%, 2%... the healers are oom, the MT dies right as the dragon hits 1%. the dragon runs around taking out the remaining healers and hits me with Essence of the red, I stand back and rapid fire shadowbolts (lock :P) I ended up being the only one standing when the dragon died with a little over 100 HP (then exploded and died as well :P) the screams in vent were insane. Second part, the nemesis belt dropped and the guild unanimously decided that since i pretty much killed the dragon that i got to have it:) I STILL have that belt taking up a bank slot lol.
