psh easy- many years ago in the treacherous cavern of Molten Core...I finally got hold of my leaf (leading up to Rhok and Lok) for my epic hunter quest. This was ages before they turned that whole quest line into easy mode as well- and it was on a pvp server...fun times.
It was probably the Eye of Shadow, back in Vanilla WoW (when I swear it either was BoP or really expensive) with my best IRL friend Tosho.. We solo farmed the elites for a while but it went really rough and we were running out of time (something like a raid in an hour or whatever) and he really wanted to strut Benediction for it. So we recruited two IRL friends that happened to come on around the same time, and kept farming. It went a lot faster and we all got on Vent for it (mostly just to chat). This continued for a long time with no drops. We weren't really expecting anything, it was just something to do.Anyways, we see another Priest and Rogue pair, but Alliance. The rogue goes and aggroes a Slayer, but his priest gets attacked by a hunter so he turns around mid-step.Feeling nice (and greedy), we steal the Slayer from him (still untagged) and kill it.Tosho receives loot: .We were all like >.> and started /dancing and the Alliance pair (rogue freshly resurrected) came up and did /rude, etc., obviously knowing what happened.He didn't get to strut Benediction for the raid (due to the long and hard quest chain), but he did for many after.Was pretty epic.
Back in the days of Vanilla WoW, I remember progressing with my guild through MC. After several nights of wiping on Ragnaros we were just about to call it for the night, however the raid leader pleaded for one more attempt and we gave it our all. We had him down at less than 1% when almost everyone in the raid was dead. As a Ret paladin, I bubbled up and chopped away at him as hard as I could with my Obsidian Edged blade and he finally died. I went almost deaf with everyone going nuts on Teamspeak. That night I became the proud owner of Crown of Destruction, much to the ire of hunters in Ironforge.
Most epic loot/moment?The time I had to emergency tank Curator in Kara with my Belf Rogue. Good times there. Both our tanks and our only hunter D/C'd right at the beginning of the fight. So, poor ole Prudii (My rogue) was forced to tank him the whole way. I was only able to pul it off because how rediculously powerful our priest and healdin were. Thankfully, the hunter came back right after we got him down to 57% so we had just enough dps to down him. So, after we FINALLY kill him, our main tank shows back up, then our off tank. Best and Worst part was that he dropped my Tier 4 gear. Both the hunter and i rolled on it.........he beat my by 4.
Probably when i got my t4 helm, malch was at 6% when tank died, and basically went on a rampage through the rest of the team, was at 3% when he finally turned to me, the last man standing. hammer of wrath, bubble, shock, judge, everything in my arsenal as thrown at him. He had 1% left when bubble dropped, i hit him for all i was worth in a last ditch effort before the last blow was landed on me. Luckily, i dropped him...with 200hp left. Helm dropped, i asked, no-one argued.
The most epic drop I ever got were the Cenarion Gloves from Molten Core when they used to drop from Lucifron. It was the first night my guild was in Molten Core, and they were the first epic we ever had drop as a guild. It was a great moment. I still have them in my bank, just to remind me how awesome raiding used to be.
my most epic loot was being the first person on my server to get t6 gloves on my warlock!
