What is something in WoW you are pretty proud of

[KMFJD]

Hate messages from people who saw me 5 box WoW

There are only two things I am proud of... that is the hunter epic bow and priest epic staff from back in Vanilla days. I did both of those quests solo (except for the parts you gain from Molten Core and Onyxia), and the Hunter quest at the time I did it probably was one of the most difficult solo quests I have ever seen to date on any MMORPG. They nerfed it later on to make it way easier, but at first it was close to impossible. The part that made it hard was actually other players trying to steal the demon or grief you, and the bugginess of the mobs themselves (for example with the wintergrasp demon I would be doing great, then suddenly he just starts evading out of the blue and runs back to the spawn point). I remember staying up one night and killing the demon in wintergrasp (you had to kite him and constantly use poison arrow on him) and when I finally got him my hands were shaking uncontrollably.

The priest epic was hard as well, but not as hard as the hunter quest. I was the 3rd hunter on my server with the hunter epic bow / staff (lok'delar / Rhok'delar) and just having the weapon, everybody knew what a hard ass time it was to get. I was the first in my raiding guild to get it. At the time people were literally paying real world dollars for other people to log onto their account to do the quest. Doing it solo made it even harder, because if a horde was in the area they could easily grief me on the quest and make the demon despawn. The Silithus demon was fairly difficult to do solo as well. When I received Rhok'delar I was the first on the server to do the chain solo, the other two had guildmates helping them clear the mobs along the way and buffing up the hunter before the pull. The quest was considerably easier with people helping you and even then it took a long time for hunters on the server to get it, many of whom used an exploit which allowed a hunter who already did the quest to kill the demon for them and then let them loot the head.

Once I had the item I felt amazed with it; it was truly a beautiful looking bow and really made me stand out.

not getting addicted to the stupid game like everyone else did :thumbsup:

Even though most people spend more time than they care to admit on WoW I think the majority of the people agree that it was (mostly) good times. I think especially people who have been playing since the beginning. We usually have fond memories of those times.

Proud I finally quit the game. Same sh|t, different day in that game................

 

[mxyzptlk]

I think I played wow for about a week. I quit after I jumped in some water somewhere and some frog/turtle looking thing kept killing me over and over again.

My proudest moment.. um.. That time I killed a thing.

Yeah, that quest chain was epic. My heart was thumping when I beat the WS demon. The Burning Steppes demon and Ungoro Crater demon were easy. The most difficult demon for me was the one at Silithus. I think it took me 2 weeks to kill it.

Not really pride involved, but tons of fond memories. Mostly of pvp- reverse ganking high level people when they would try and gank me while leveling an alt. Killing a raid geared 60 mage on a lvl 50 shaman, killing a 70 rogue on a 53 hunter(an imbicle though, never uses a cooldown on me), stuff like that. Clutch defenses of frostwolf keep in the days before you could win by attrition. Mind controlling people off of the dun baldar bridge and mind controling people who would peak around the corner at drek thar, running them right up to him so as soon as it broke he would one shot them. Snow balling people off of the cliff by icewing bunker, ahhh the first version of the alterac snowballs were a blast.

Those were always fun to find a player working on it... you just had to shoot the demon once and it poofed.

I hated hunters when I played my mage but liked playing them also so I only did that when I was on my mage.

The accomplishment I'm most proud of is getting the world first Four Horsemen kill. It took many many spreadsheets and MS paint diagrams!

So you are saying you are from Nihilum of course I am assuming that's who had the world 1st back then.

 

[Red Storm]

Considering how much time I spend playing games, I'd say the thing I'm proud of most is that I've never played WoW even once. I looked at gameplay videos, read up on the game, but in the end saw no reason why I would enjoy paying money for it. It's ugly, and a grind. A good story can make up for the ugly, but MMOs are lacking a bit when it comes to engrossing stories.

Nope, I'm a former member of Death and Taxes.

Oh, you guys, I was In DROW .

 

[ModerateRepZero]

Hmm....at the present time I'm proud of the fact that I managed to get both the H-Naxx (was missing thaddius prior to last night), and reg EoE (only did it once before, then did it with two diff groups) within a 12-hour period

and speaking of Death and Taxes, I have a brother who's still in the guild although he elected to stay on Korgath.

Hmm I thought D&T was gone, but then again I don't follow whats going on. Naxx was the best instance in the game that I went to. Its good people get to go there that never got to. Thaddius fight was always fun, I didn't like BT and quit the game with 3 bosses left to kill, didn't kill Archimonde in Hyjal either. I remember running around in Hyjal before the zone was even populated, we wall jumped over, ran all over the place doing some base jumping with Noggenfogger, then finally leaving by jumping to Azshara to our deaths.

Awesome-sauce on the achievements.

I've been trying to get the K-T part done for my main toon ( Priest ) - but I always seem to end up in pugs that just can't finish for one reason or another or completely fall apart at K-T. Alas - the toon I'm not worried about getting achievements has finished EoE and K-T... :/

Something I'm proud of that I've done IN Wow - not telling anyone that I actually play the game.

 

[Finalnight]

Having an old-school PVP rank.

 

[CKent]

Nothing others would find remarkable... but killing Illidan, having a white raptor mount, successfully completing bear runs (never did get one though), having old school pvp ranks on multiple characters including r12 on one, and getting nude pics emailed to me from this one incredibly hot girl in one of my guilds (ok, maybe that one's somewhat remarkable ) all rank up there in the many fond memories I have of the game. I quit about a year ago though, didn't like the direction it took.

 

[coreyb]

World of Warcraft is a feeling.

 

[ModerateRepZero]

Hmm I thought D&T was gone, but then again I don't follow whats going on.

I've never been in the guild myself, but my understanding is that sometime in the late spring '07 DnT decided to reroll on Blackrock as Horde, while others who decided to stay in the guild remained in Korgath. Originally when rerolling on Korgath they claimed not to be into hardcore raiding (guess that feeling didn't last).

So the short story is that there are two DnT: the "main" and more active branch which is Hordeside on Blackrock, and the "original" alliance guild still on Korgath.

Heh, this.

Though to say I never played it would technically be a lie... I played for about three hours on a friend's account at a LAN party while he was still asleep. I created an Orc warrior, did a few "kill X of these random small animals" quests, then died a bunch once I got a quest involving killing enemies that were able to fight back. Never figured out how to put points in skills or even how to use skills... I basically just ran around and used the basic attack. Got to level 6 I think.

I don't know why people like this game so much. It's really boring.
