Foundest Wow MomentsFollow

I recently quit WoW (Or in other words I'm taking a break till after finals) and I've been thinking about those moments that makes WoW such a memorable game to me.

My very first toon on my 14 day trail (which took 7 days to download) was a Troll Mage. I had killed my fair share of Quilboar and Harpies, and had been given the quest to go to see Thrall. The second I walked through the big gates of Org, my eyes got so huge. I had never seen such a city as large as it in a video game. It just seemed to go on and on for ever, I could never imagine remembering where anything was (only took half a year tongue)

One of the weirder moments to remember, to me it just reminds me of the second summer of playing in a whole. On the one year anniversary of my WoW playing, I made a Blood elf Priest, and started to level it. After passing my friend who I was "leveling with" I found myself in Ashenvale to turn in some marks. With Price is Right of all things on the TV, my normal lunch of Mac and Cheese in my hand, I look at the screen and see myself on my hard earned Artic Wolf, standing on one of the small bridges, angled just right where I could see the trees in the back. I wish I screen shoted that moment, because it really was how my summer was. Spending all my time nerding out to WoW, eatting Mac and Cheese everyday for lunch, while watching the Price is Right. To some that may seem like a terrible summer, but at the time, it was the best summer ever.

So what's your guys' most memorable moments in WoW?

Side Note: What happen to these forums? I've never seen so many grayed out posts.

We were accosted by stupid college undergrad studies/surveys. We don't tend to like that. =x

Not that it makes much difference now, but for future reference it's usually a good idea to download the game and THEN sign up for a trial. That way you actually get it for the amount of time you are supposed to.

For me, It would be my 1st 10 man nax hot luck run - got the safety dance achivement, and won all the gear i needed for my drooid, and cleared out the place all in one fell swoop.. not too shabby for a 1st raid run ;)

it's closely followed by dinging 60 in vanilla / getting birdy form ;)

Huh... maybe that's why I don't want to play my mage! I had the same issue all throughout Wrath.

Yogg+1 down after three weeks on him. After some key members of my guild left I assembled a 10 man team to get us the rusted proto which we did much to my surprise I must say since this was our "other" raid team at the time.

Also getting my lvl 70 hunter, my 1st toon, the Don Santos famous hunting riffle (or something like that) which was his first purple and for which I had to borrow gold from some friends.

My first raid ever was Karazhan.
Nothing wrong with that, but it was also my first ever guild.
Nothing wrong with that either, but the thing is that that guild was all-swedish guild (I don't know what I was doing there) and they all spoke swedish.
I know very little swedish and that's only because swedish language is mandatory in schools here.
We got up to like Maiden of virtue, and then called it for the night as it was late.
Shortly afterwards I quit that guild and joined another one, where I still am up to this date, and we have had lots of fun and memorable raids with those guys and all of my best memories from WoW are the raids and late night heroics with those guys.

I have lots of really great memories from WoW, but it's not because of the game itself, it's because of the people I play the game with.

My best memories are probably just enjoying raiding with my guild. Back in wrath when we could do 10 and 25's our 10's were just a close knit group and we just had a lot of fun playing together and talking through vent heckling and getting achievements. That's probably been the best part for me.

I would have to say the whole quest line on my Warlock for the Dread steed.
That was so much fun and broke the bank lol.

Back then it was a nice chunk of gold.

40 man raid in Duskwood fighting Emeriss one of The Dragons of Nightmare (a.k.a. the Emerald Dragons). These fights were always Epic.

Haha yeah, that was one of the things that made me laugh really hard.

Exploring Felwood at level 20ish and getting left for dead by my best friend so he could save his own hide. He looked back while running to watch a diseased bear maul me. The ******* would probably do the same to me in real life.

still my best bud though

First time beating the timed baron run in ud strat back in vanilla. Two arms warriors, two enhancement shaman, and my priest healing. Back then most folks didn't think you could pull it off without mages and locks. I remember before we started the general consensus was just keep wind fury up and we got this.

My fondest moment was somewhat early on into the Wrath of the Lich King expansion. My guild was a mid-range contender in regards of progression on Thrall at the time and we were doing a Sartharion 25 man with three drakes up. It was mostly guild with a few outside PUGs that were either former guild members or close friends otherwise. I was playing feral druid as dps and suddenly our main tank took a flame breath and fire wall to the face with like 10% or so left. Our off tanks occupied with adds or portal mobs at the time there was nobody else to try and save us from the wipe except me. I went bear, the healers focused on me and I managed to hold the beast for the remainder of the fight. It was pretty epic.

Another fond moment takes place before the first. In a nutshell my friend and I (he was GM then, I was an officer) got into a huge PvP/e-peen swinging match that stretched from Stormwind to Ironforge. Two alliance guys were MCing and healing to full a tauren warrior who was then rampaging through town. We tried to kill him, saw they were not letting him die and proceeded to verbally assault them. They shouted back and the mudflinging and attempts to kill the warrior went on for like 3 hours. My friend would end up passing GM to me, quitting, and all those guys we were shouting at would end up in my guild as officers a year later. There's a lot in between to make that ironic situation come to pass :-P
