I have two really memorable moments.
first was in the burning crusade, a few months before the sunwell plateau.
I'd been raiding kharazhan for months now on my hunter, and was now a trial member of a SSC and BT raid guild. One of their main tanks was an old guild mate from back in vanilla wow, who basically got me in.
on day me and him get asked by a completely random group to help with Kara. We say okay (his GF's mage as well)
We pretty much pulverized everything in our path and there, and the Prince, after that final fight, there at last, after raiding the place for months. My bow dropped.
this made me incredibly happy and just had me in a good mood for the week.
The second is also on my hunter, but more recent.
Two weeks before the shattering was implemented I FINALLY got off my ass and started doing the quest from the petrified leaf from MC. The bow and the staff turned out to be easy as all hell, the first black dragon spawn I killed dropped the black sinew.
but try as I might, I could not get the Blue one for that quiver who was now a 24 slot bag.
I tried and tried and tried. Azuregos was always dead, the blue dragons in witherspring were exterminated 5 times over every hour, nothing.
Then, finally, two days before the shattering, the blue dragon sinew is on the AH, for just barely 100 gold.
I was so incredibly giddy that I am just glad none was there to see me.
