One of my favorite moment in wow was about 4 years ago. My boyfriend explainging how things work. Because wearing gear because it looks nice or not wear because its ugly is kinda silly XD Even now 4 years later we help each other in all this RL and online :)
Raiding in TBC, the fun times of wiping, raging and guild drama on vent.
Hard to decide, since I have so many great memories of playing, but one of my favorite memories is when I got to raid with my guild for the first time. I spent 2 weeks studying the bosses and checking and re-checking my gear to make sure my dps was high enough. I was so nervous and excited all at the same time, but ended up having a blast and helped them progress in the dungeon.
Best memory of wow has to be the first time of stepping into a 40 man aq40 for the first time and watching the chaos of 40 individual people all trying to be organised into a cohesive raid
Wow. Favourite memory playing World of Warcraft... where to begin? For me it wasn't that feeling of exhilaration from killing a difficult or iconic boss for the first time, or picking up that item that so often eluded your grasp. My fondest memory of WoW was making a friend that I somehow managed to keep with me for a fair few years now. Maybe it was more so because of how ridiculously strange our meeting was... But she has proven to be one of my closest friends to this day, and I will never forget that moment.It was... a while ago; early in the Burning Crusade I think. We had actually ran into each other about half an hour before we first really "talked". Both of us were playing alts and leveling up in Strangethorn Vale. There was this one quest where you have to kill Bloodscalp Trolls for necklaces that would never drop. The quest itself could take you a looong time - and coincidentally enough we were both trying to kill the same group of NPCs. She took one of "my" (and I say this loosely) kills "accidentally" and apologised. Half an hour passed and, as one often did leveling up, I died. Teleporting to the graveyard, there she was, doing the exact same thing I was. So I decided to send her a whisper - I don't even remember what I said... But we ended up talking for a fairly long time - Just standing there in the graveyard without a care. Swapping stories of amusing exploits or deaths that we felt were "unique", or talking about why we chose the names that we did for our characters. I walked away from that with an amazing friend, and a cherished memory (...and a corpse to return to).That was the single greatest moment of playing World of Warcraft for me, for it led into a beautiful friendship. And to think, it was all because of the low drop-rate on those Bloodscalp Necklaces!
I remember not wanting to play Wow, I played a ton of other MMO's and thought it look cartoony, but I recall my friend saying come over and check it out, as him and a couple of his college roommates just started playing it and professed how fun it was. So at like midnight I went over to his house, watched him run around a little bit on his horde toon, and just seeing all the people running around and how the cartoony graphics were actually not that bad, I decided, I am in. So I went to the store and bought my copy and rushed home to install. So there I was, freshly installed and ready to play its now 3am, but I am fighting sleep, so I can be WoW'd by this new game, was like Christmas morning. I made a Tauren Warrior and ran around Mulgore, well after a bit my friend logged off to crash. I ran around and killed and destroyed things, then while my confidence was at full throttle, I wandered to far north and didn't realize the skull monsters are a little to tough. Here comes my fav moment, So I am dead, not knowing what is going on with this spirit rezzer, its like 5am now and I am to stubborn to read the guide and getting angry, so I call my friend and wake him up, just to ask him what to do. He laughed about it the next day but when I woke him he wasn't in a very good mood.
My favourite memory Had to be the Day i dinged 60 in the classic days of wow. Before expansions, when we had 40man raids to bwl and MC, i spent months and months playing my Hunter leveling her slowly and slowly, almost felt like i would never ding 60! i was so happy the day i dinged:D my dad bought me my very first epic mount and my friend bought me a lil companion pet..that day started me out on my whole collecting obsession! aaaw the day i dinged 60 is a day i will likely never forget.
My favorite moment in wow was last night me and some friends were in front of Orgrimmar just killing any red we saw and then suddenly the ground and air were filled with horde. It was awesome. And because i read this in the official rules. the thing im most excited about in 4.2 is the new quest hub and easier to get gear.
My favourite moment was when my guild downed Anetheron in the Hyjal Summit raid using a custom strat I'd designed.It relied on carefully positioning the group in a two staggered chains, which allowed the majority of healers to outrange the boss's anti-healing effect and enabled our under-geared and inexperienced guild to down a boss we wouldn't have otherwise. It was completely unlike any other strat I've seen floating around the web before or since, and in my not so humble opinion was better than all the others I have seen ;)It proved to me that there was a way for just about any group to do anything in wow provided you planned carefully, understood what was happening, knew how to react and maintained a clear, calm & balanced execution. It was the start of wow's lessons for me about leading and organising a group, and the origin of a lot of the real-life lessons which I've since gathered from wow.Plus it's just great to finally pwn a boss that's been blocking you for so long you're all nearly ready to give up ;)
My favorite memory of WoW is that after a month of trying I finally was able to tame the SpectralSaberWorg on my hunter! He is my most use pet still on my hunter at 85!
Just days after finally reaching level 70 on my Mage during TBC I had decided to create a new character. An Orc Shaman. From the moment I logged in and witnessed the Durotar cutscene I knew this would be a terrific adventure. By the time I had reached level 62, I had picked up raiding on my main, and this resulted in me completely forgetting about my Shaman.A few months later I found myself with a spare weekend and nothing to do. It was raining outside (although I do love rain), and most of my friends were either out of town or busy. So I decided to pick up where I left the last time I played my Shaman. With some sweet music in my headphones I pushed it all the way to level 67 in a matter of hours.I fell in love with the zones there. The mysterious, dark but yet colorful Zangarmarsh in all its glory made me even more psyched for reaching the maximum level. And then I discovered Netherstorm. Gorgeous design, amazing lore and charming NPCs (Hey Goblins in Area 52, I'm talking about you!). The memory of questing there triumphs anything else I have ever done in World of Warcraft.
My favorite memory was back in burning crusade, I was down in stranglethorn vale on my rogue on Altar of storms, had 3 alliance riding down the road, i threw up a distract, sapped 1, blinded another, took down the third, then proceeded to take apart the blinded druid, and then took down the sapped pally. All the while, had an alliance rogue cheering me on from a stealthed position. That was an amazing fight and day.
My favorite moment was taming my Spirit Wolf pet, and I still have it to this day.I spent a week researching the monumentally precise details of how it needed to be done, and then went looking for a Shaman and a Priest to accompany me.We arrived in Dustwallow Marsh, and found our target, one of the Tauren Shaman mobs, and began testing it out. The Priest would need to Mind Control the target, to summon the Ghost wolves, and we would then have roughly 6 seconds to tame, which was shorter than the time needed to tame the pet, so I had to gear up in as much haste as I could muster, and the Shaman needed to fire off Heroism at the right time, and my Tame Beast needed to start the second the pets spawned, or they would despawn before the tame was completed.2 hours later, we finally got it right (had to keep waiting on Heroism Cooldown) and the pet was tamed. To honor the event, I named the pet Sakatarrakin, after Sakat the Shaman, and Arrakin the Priest. This was 3 years ago, and to this day, these 2 random players see me with the pet occasionally and do the /smile and /nod emote as I pass by.
My boyfriend and I started playing WoW together as it was one of the only games we both enjoy and it was one of the only mediums we could use to spend time together. I live in Canada and he in Germany for now. All the experiences we've had, from downing Illidan, screwing up Ragnaros's summons in MC, dozens of deaths in ICC, completing the world events meta this year (yay fruity looking proto drake :D) I am unable to pinpoint a single event that I could focus on to say "Yeah this would be it.".The most exhausting task we set our sights on was working together to help me tame Loque on my BM Hunter, which I eventually got weeks after we started.Every moment has been great in game, meeting new people, getting our guild to 25, seeing guildmates get achievements, getting revenge on that damn Fel Reaver in Outlands, the list goes on and on...:)JhumbalayaTroll Hunter, BM Earthen Ring
