Whats ur best wow memories
>>
developing an /ss/ fetish at 15 years old by having phone/voice chat sex with a 51 year old woman i met & played with on there for about a month or two ongoing and making a deep connection with her

i cherish that memory more than the raids, leveling, anything

that was in 2008 so she must be turning nearly 60 now ;_;7

rave on, based wow milf, wherever you are

>>332086384
meeting all the girls
one girl messaged me out of nowhere and said she was drunk and wanted to suck my cock
the one I remember most fondly was a girl named gemma who worked in the fashion industry. ultra ultra rude and really abrasive, but I still think fondly of her all the same
I guess that's what I get for being a trade chat shitter.
Ulduar was cool though, and was one of the last things i did

Playing from level 1-20 as a night elf took me FOREVER. FOR-EV-ERRRR

And I had the view distance on LOW so I remember that purple fog in Tel'Drassil was so close, and honestly... It made the world seem so much bigger because I had to go right up to places to actually see them. Also WoW had that mystical glow option that made the night elf zone look even more amazing. Wish they would bring that back.

Shit was amazing.

My best memory is my second guild.

>Just recently left a guild because guild leader tried to cause shit with me
>Second guild takes me in, I am on good terms with everyone
>Seriously, everyone likes me and I like everyone
>Fast forward to WotLK announcement
>Guild leader wants to tank a heroic dungeon

>We mow down the first boss of Shadow Labyrinth
>We steamroll the trash up to Grandmaster Vorpil
>We wipe due to an unfortunate spawn from the void monsters
>Guild leader flips the fuck out, yells at us saying we should not be wiping (For the record, this is a casual guild, not a hardcore one)
>Me being sensible, I suggest he calm down and we go again
>He goes off on me and yells at me, telling me to shut up and do my job
>Fuck this shit I'm out, plug pull and go do something outside of WoW for the day
>Next day, I log in and find that I'm not in a guild
>He kicked me
>Talk to the second GM through whispers, they didn't know I was kicked
>They ask the GM, find out the reason, hate the reason
>Instead of inviting me back, second GM gets most of the guild to disband and leave the GM
>They form another guild, I join and they make me GM

Sadly, they all stopped playing shortly after, and I found myself guildless until the middle of Wrath, where I met the guys I'm in guild with now. I'm now the GM of my own casual guild, and we get shit done while having fun.

Yeah they were an interesting bunch, everyone rolled because that was determined to be the most "fair" solution to handling loot vs fucking with DKP or risking favoritism with council rules.

I honestly preferred it that way once I seriously got into progression raiding.

I remember you could use hunter's eye of the beast to control your pet directly.
Going to noob areas and taming a pet there and naming it appropriately (i.e. "Lesser Wolf"), then using eye of the beast to pretend to be a mob was always hilarious.

Too bad they always nerf this kind of stuff.

Best part was we were all a different spec so we didn't fight over weapon drops often or if we both wanted one we'd just let the other have it, and have our own little DKP-like system running for the next drop.

Fuck man, that was some of the most fun I've ever had in a video game.

I don't know about his stories server, but whenever my one went down for whatever reason, the entire community somehow had an understanding to go to this one other server, roll naked gnomes, and run out into the world as a mob

It just sounds like something somebody in my old guild would do.

One when our server was down we all went on a random server, made a bunch of dwarves named after presidents and made a naked run for stv yelling a bunch of stupid edgy shit.

Started with maybe 10-15 and ended up with a pretty decent sized party.

I don't even know how to describe that day, but it was amazing, seeing the different zones, arriving in Menethil, getting lost, getting to the top of a mountain in the wetlands and finding an Orc tribe, seeing the snow capped mountains, being stuck in Loch Modan because the gate was closed etc,

That and getting to that village that get's attacked by the huge abomination, seeing all the corpses and people get fucked up and not knowing what to do are 2 of my best experiences in WoW
>>
>>332095352
its pretty overcrowded yeah. Lags quite a bit during the popular times as well.

I still had fun casually leveling a bit every now and then. Doing couple of instances and what not.
>>
I was in a small tightly knit guild comprised of around 20 people and of those 20 maybe 8 were casual so we could only ever do 10 man raids.
clearing karazhan with them was a fun experience but one night we merged with another guild to down gruul and it was a pretty great experience.
when ZA came out we jumped straight into it, even though with kara gear we were supposed to be undergeared, but after two months or something we managed to clear it

never saw SSC TK or BT but I didn't even care

I know the feel, I was 14 first character being a nelf druid, get chatting to a nelf priest while leveling in Teldrassil, turns out she's some late 30s/early 40s woman, end up getting her phone number when I go on holiday for a couple of weeks to text her. Also ended up becoming friends with her daughter who was the same age as me who was playing a human warrior.

Don't think the either of them knew about the activities with the both of them. I miss Vanilla.

I had a friend in middle school who wanted me to get into WoW with him in 2004. What did I miss out on?

I couldn't justify the $15 a month then (and I sure as shit can't now). Were you all just rich kids whose parents didn't give a fuck if you sponged their credit card for WoW? Or did you actually scrimp and save those $15 a month for a WoW card when you could have been saving for a game you'd own permanently? I know I was just happy playing gamecube back then, but some of your stories make me feel like I missed out sometimes.

>>332098304
I didn't spend money on anything else so that helped me.

You might have missed out. Most of my best memories are from wow. But it obviously came at a price.

i honestly would beg every month for $15 bucks when I was a kid, after I got into wow I would demand for chores to do to somehow get an allowance or something

>>332098515
I guess I didn't really miss out all that much. $15 a month adds up fast. If I had played it for just 2 years ($15x24= $360) I definitely wouldn't have been able to afford a PS3 at launch, which gave me far better memories in the long run (inB4 Sonygger). Not to mention all the Gamecube games I played in 2004-2005.

But honestly my parents were super squeamish about letting me use their credit cards for ANYTHING online, and I didn't get my own until I was 18, so even if I had begged them to pay for my subscriptions the answer would have been a firm no probably.

I remember how we ganked people in(or on I'm not sure) quel'danas while we were in their teamspeak. We had a lot fun to listen to their complains.

The best moment was when I ganked one player alone(in quel'danas) until he stopped to revive. So I used in front of him my hearthstone and went immediately back to the island and killed him again. After this he went offline.

Yeah this was great back then as a 16 year old to dominate other people in online games. Today I play on a PvE server so I don't get ganked by pupils.

Two crimson whelplings dropping within 20 minutes of each other. People can say bullshit as much as they want, as I no longer have pictures as proof, but one of those single handedly paid for my first mount and training, and I kept the other. Only one guildee was online to hear about it, and even he didn't believe it. Used up all the luck of my life on that.

Also having a guild that went out, did raids, explored the worlds, tried to get places we weren't supposed to be was fun. I still talk with those fucks to this day.

Also first time getting the Earthfury shoulders for my shaman made me so happy.

I would bait fire mages constantly with tricket + flame reflector. Move slightly in range of polymorph on mob, always polymorphed. Just before their fireball launches, I trinket out and use the reflector. Always get hit by arcane power fireball + PoM Pyro. Once was against a premade where I was polymorphed and 3 naxx geared mages began charging their fireballs. I killed all 3 by myself, one of which instantly keeled over just from the reflector.

Being a mage, this also turned you to their one and only target for the rest of the BG, every time. They would ignore everyone else but me, which is hilarious because I would still reflect their stuff back on them because I play a mage and know when they will use Pyro.

Barrens for the first time;
Me and a friend is having a little lan at my place
parents tell us to go to sleep
obviously don't
we keep quiet so we whisper eachother in game
barrens music start playing
friend leans over "press r to reply" (i've been doing it from friends list lol)
went to bet at like 5 in the morning.

first time raiding molten core;
use lightning bolt on trash
main tank/guild officer whisper me "you're healer"
i was like oh wow ok. Spent 10(!) gold on a respecc to resto.

When I was a pretty good resto shaman in mixed MC/ZG/BWL gear I used to play WSG with my bro who was a pvp shaman proccing windfury after windfury with his unstoppable force. I ran around healing him while one or two shotted poor alliance cloth wearers.

When the guild I was in did guild first Nefarian (among the first couple of guilds on horde I think, but we were far from the best on the server. Alliance won the pve war) we celebrated with a guild Alterac Valley group queue. We won.. in 45 minutes!! that sure was something back in the days when AV could last day. We stomped Alliance that day.

Played on Turalyon EU if anyone is interested,

When I played my priest I went DISC priest when everyone went Holy.
Guild leader hated my ass because I could not top heals like the other healers but I had fucking pain suppression when you could cast it on tanks and I had Power Infusion when you could cast it on others as well.
The tank loved me because I could help him survive and every mage wanted to suck my dick by quote on vent 'Giving them the power'.
Used to laugh when they would all say give me the power!, I beg of thee!.

There's your problem, shit is miserable. It's doable, I did when I was leveling but it fucking sucked.

Though playing as shadow in vanilla was even more boring, you're only serving as a buff bitch for warlocks but you're a wasted dps slot because of how shitty shadow was for pve.

Fun and deadly as fuck in pvp though

Matter of opinion, if you don't like healing then you don't like it and spec wouldn't change that.

Healing as shadow isn't the same as healing as holy. The talents make a huge fucking difference, obviously.

Still, pve shadow in vanilla was awful dude, you weren't missing out. It's literally just mind flaying everything for five minutes straight and occasionally using swp but not really because it would kill your mana and you still do shit damage.

Back when the PvP honorable kill system launched (a month or so into WoW) I was playing on my level 20-something orc hunter in ashenvale, when a Night Elf walked up to me and dueled me. Now, he must've been shit, because he lost to 12yo ME in a duel.

However, I got this odd feeling that he was still trying to right-click me and so I turned on PvP. He instantly attacked me.

That's how I got my very first Honorable Kill.

>>332107305
>if you don't like healing then you don't like it and spec wouldn't change that.
Oh definitely. I know I would have never liked healing. A lot of people would say I found it boring because I'm bad but at least you realize it is opinion.

It only made me mad. I had okay/decent Shadow gear but my first raid guild's warrior leader was a hardcore "one class one spec" faggot and he had the guild leader wrapped around his finger so I only got to ever dps in a raid a handful of times.

I've played since Vanilla, but most great memories were from WotLK. First Mimiron Hard Mode kill with guild is probably the best memory I have. The fight was pure fucking chaos, then when we finally down him and TS just explodes with screams of joy.

It's the constant struggle of hybrid classes.

Before I played priest I mained a warrior and had to tank a lot when I was like every other warrior and wanted to be fury because I fucking hated tanking even though I was okay at it.

When I started I enjoyed it, the feeling of controlling giants in molten core as 39 other people beat the fuck out of it is a pretty amazing feeling but over time opinions changed and I grew to hate it.

Probably starting out literally a week ago. Why doesn't anybody play anymore? I'm definitely going to really start playing when Legion comes out.
Inb4 Underage, etc. I have always been a card player. Tended to stay away from most console games and mmos because I witnessed so many of my friends drawn into them to an unhealthy extent and I used my time to focus on competing in card playing and sports at an elite level. I got into Hearthstone which then introduced me to WoW with the lore. I started playing for the Liadrin hero skin and i'm really enjoying it. I know I'm late to the party, but I can't be the only one, can I?

It's just bad for anybody who knew it previously, you have no fucking idea how bad and far it's fallen in terms of quality, let alone the userbase and community.

I've been playing in a "dead" PvE realm for years. Only two guilds have 13/13 Mythic HFC, both Alliance and I am Horde.
Tried playing on a big PvP realm several times, and I have a few 100 characters there, but it's just not the same. My empty PvE realm has a small but nice community and I'm too attached to the people in my guild, while most people in the PvP realm behave like the average kid in League of Legends.

If it's your first time then I guess it depends on your first impression of the people there.
