That'd have to be winning Dal'Rend's Sacred Charge over two rogues as a warrior back in the day, and getting the Sacred Charge the very next run
Well, it wasn't so much an epic as...Okay. I've got a friend online who collects pets. She also runs her own guild, and they did Black Temple back in the day. So, it's not like she really needed anything. Still, she had mentioned that she wanted the Captured Firefly, but didn't want to spend 2000 gold for it. Now, checking up on the ol' Wowhead, I found out that it dropped from Bogflare Needlers. No special contest, no fight, just a lot of patience. And so...I figured I could go get it for her. I was a level 58 paladin when this started. By the time I got it? Level 62. Yes, just from killing those bugs. I did get enough money from selling those Fractured Carapaces, by the way, to pay for training up to level 62. It tooks probably 10 days. I gave it to her. Now, when she eventually got around to accepting it? Her reaction was priceless. That was pretty epic, yeah.
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!
The Hard Khorium Battleplate is, by far, my favorite epic loot drop. It was fantasic for my DPS pre-WotLK and has lasted me until I got my Tier 7 chest. The three red gem slots and plenty of strength show that Blizzard wasted little in itemizing it for warriors. Having my character's name printed on it was a nice touch.
My most epic epic i've ever gotten would have to be lightbringer shoulders after losing them 3 weeks in a row.
Hmm, probably the Royal Scepter of Vek'lor out of AQ 40 on my warlock. Best in slot at the time! Though I never got the MH to use it with (DAMN YOU WRAITHBLADE) so I felt kind of silly.
