The other two days I posted about getting a mount, I'm not doing that today. I'm posting about when I got the Nemesis Robes back in the day, and completed the set. My guild finished BWL about a month or a month and a half before Blizzard fixed the tier 2 itemization (and added the unique graphics to the T2 sets) and I had been collecting as many pieces of Nemesis I could get. We had killed Nefarian several times and he refused to drop the Warlock goodies, and then about a week before the update went live, he dropped the Nemesis robes. I immediately copied my character to the test realm to bask in the awesome graphics of the awesome looking set.
I bet our MT that the halberd of desolation wouldn't drop. It was only 10g and I thought I would win. After we downed Najentus it dropped and was given to me. Of course our MT was cracking up and wanted his 10g. 10g is srs business.
I had only been playing WoW for about a month when christmas-time came around. I saw people running around Stormwind with "santa hats" on. After some searching how to aquire a winter hat, I knew it would be tough for me, because I was not part of a guild and wasn't ready for any real dungeons. I began killing as many mobs as I could. it took me the entire 2 weeks winter veil festival, about 10 hours a day of playing, and multiple levels gained, but I finally looted one off a zombie in the graveyard in duskwood. I immediately equipped it, flew to Stormwind and started running around all giddy-like. Maybe it's sad, but that's still the best piece of loot I have ever got.
