First time Onyxia took a deep breath. We were like "what the hell is coming next?" and then we all died. Was EPIC.

My favorite moment has to be the day I got loremaster.Because when I opened up the letter from Tyrande, I realized I really did manage to help and save everyone in the world and it felt great. (Even though the tabard doesn't even look good)
My most favorite memory of WoW was one of the Omen battles, pre-WotLK. Some members of my guild at the time (Amazons) figured "Yeah, we're 70, totally beefy enough to take Omen on just with an 8 (wo)man group. My brother was invited along as a special guest as he was a favorite tank in past groups. We had a tank in the group already, he was just there to provide backup. 5 minutes into the fight, in full on prot gear and spec, my brother, then Voidknight, became our healer. He stayed stationary in a key location while 2 hunters, myself (then Ominousrat) in back and the other in front, kited Omen in a figure 8 pattern around Moonglade. 20 minutes into the battle some Lowbies got in on the action too. The rest of the group were dispersed at the top, center, and bottom of the figure 8 lobbing attacks and running from the AoEs. At a final strength of just about 25 raid members, multiple deaths, and over an hour and 20 minutes total, we downed Omen. Nothing has come close to beating that day yet.
My best memory would be my old guild leader and myself running and riding all over Northrend to get the explorer title when Wrath first hit. As 2 level 70's trying to dodge and run thru the high level area's, finding way's to get to alot of the fly only area's (it did cost us 600g to get summoned up to the Ulduar areas). Gaining the Explorer Title and Epic tabard as level 71's (by the time we were done) was the most epic I have ever felt. I just wish we would have been smart enough to leave all of our armor in the bank, would have saved us 1k gold in repairs (because not only did we keep breaking every bit of equipment....we also kept repairing everything as we went along..... LOL)!
My favorite memory from World of Warcraft is from back in TBC times. Our casual guild (which also exists since over 5years!) went raiding Karazan one night. As usual having a laugh at things and enjoying the dungeon while breezing through it.When we arrived at the opera event we formed up before the curtain and started the event: 'Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to this evening's presentation!' said the Barnes the Stage Manager to the audience. 'Tonight, we plumb the depths of the human soul as we join a lost, lonely girl trying desperately, with the help of her loyal companions, to find her way home.' 'But she is pursued by a wicked, malevolent crone!''Will she survive? Will she prevail? Only time will tell. And now: On with the show!'.In this very moment we heard over teamspeak our raid leader scream "What the f*uck, who pulled the audience?". I looked back and indeed the audience was on its way to join us on the stage wiping us in the process. All laughed hard with one of our mages laughing even more as he pulled the audience intentionally, saying I did not know this was possible! There was so much laughter going that we even had to stop raiding for a short time.Those were happy times...
I guess my favorite time has to be when i was lvl 10ish and won my first duel against an "experienced" player! So happy that time I still remeber and smile :D
As for PVE it was still pre-TBC. My guild and I went to BWL to face Nefarian. After a few hours of wiping there we managed to kill him finally. Everyone was happy as it was our guild's first kill. It was Tuesday's night and less than 20 mins were left until server's maintainance shutdown. And then somebody suggested to try and kill his sister Onyxia as well before the server goes off. We all ran like mad to her lair, killed trash mobs and engaged her without a proper break as we were fighting against the clock. I still remember rebuffing and potting while we were on the move. Fighting Onyxia was just crazy, we didn't mind standard tactics during each phase. From the very beginning of the fight we went for our maximum dps, healers spammed heals like mad as we completely ignored the aggro each of us was generating, laughing all the time. The dragon was nuked down so fast that we had enough time to loot her dead body properly and teleport to IF, where we all logged off, still not able to believe what we managed to achieve and incredibly happy. As for PVP I think my best memories are when I was in the premade. Raiding among the best players I have ever known to horde base in wsg, fighting against mighty MEAN's premade (those over 1h long matches were more like a clash of titans with everyone being a skilled team-player on either side) and finally getting my FM title and lvl 60 epic gear as a reward for achieving high pvp rank, not buying them easily for the honor points like you can do it today, these moments are just unforgettable....
The first time I downed Kel'Thuzad-25. It was the first raid I organized and lead through completion, and that was probably the single most fulfilling moment I've had in WoW. Didn't even matter that I got very little gear that run. :P
My favorite moment in WoW has to be when i got Tribute to Insanity 10-man in a pug. After we killed Anub'arak, the vent went pretty crazy just because we were able to do that in a Pug when half of the raid group had never even tried it on heroic mode. That is also the day i completed Trial of the Crusader 25 man. Completing A Tribute to Insanity 10 man and Trial of the Crusader 25 man in the same day was pretty cool.
My favorite memory would probably have to be obtaining the time lost protodrake. I remember it distinctly because my friend had asked to me replace him in a halls of lightning run back in the early days of wrath and as i was flying towards ulduar i saw it flying by the platform jutting out with arches on it. My heart was pounding because i was not sure if anyone else had sen it so i flew over there as fast as i could tagged and and brought the sucker down. I exclaimed over vent i had gotten it and they did not believe me and they all had to come out and see =).
My favourite memory was my first leveling, 3-4 years ago; when i was feeling pro because I was first in my recount on Scarlet Monastery. In these low level dungueon I met many people, witch i use to raid now, with the same characters :)
My favorite memory must be being "that idiot noob" on the group, thinking i can tank and heal with bandages on a warrior. Hey, it was my first dungeon ever, what'd you expect?
