There were so many items that stood out in vanilla. Many of which still remind me of a particular story connected to them.
Even though not technically a weapon: while farming my fire resistance gear I felt real hate for the first time as I rolled for https://classic.wowhead.com/item=12602/draconian-deflector and won!
I remember https://classic.wowhead.com/item=18805/core-hound-tooth dropping and my hunter friend was denied by the Council even though he bid max DKP. Big drama after that.
Mentioned this item a couple of times: https://classic.wowhead.com/item=18803/finkles-lava-dredger It took me ages to get it. It meant a lot to me. Don't think it was near BiS for resto shaman but I had a mountain of DKP waiting to be spent on this. I didn't even care about it being BiS or anything close to it. Not many people had it on my realm and I am sure it took at least 4 months for it to drop.
https://www.wowhead.com/item=18608/benediction I loved this item and I wasn't even playing a priest. I remember helping a good priest buddy with getting it by just putting down totems for him. Looked really weird seeing him get attacked and losing health but no enemies around.
I am sad that items in current WoW are not the memorable.
Definitely the benediction, love that staff, such a fun quest too!
Haha! This was all quite entertaining to catch up on. @Dolamite and @Yori, our fellow priest enthusiast and friend on the forums, @William, was correct. I do actually make these signatures myself in my spare time. I enjoy the creative outlet they provide and it gives me something to do when I'm not studying and waiting anxiously for Classic. I would be glad to make you one so long as you'd agree to be a little patient with me as my free time tends to vary! Let me know and I'll be in touch about a few of the details I'd need to really personalize them and fit them to your characters' fantasies. :smile:
Advancing the priestly cause on this forum of ours is payment enough. Forever biased to our members of the cloth :mrgreen:
Absolutely no rush. I have my preferred pic of my Priest in my profile if you need a toon reference. If you need anything else, I can email? Or PM.
You do good work. Thank you for hooking it up, when you have time.
Hahahah would the fact that i quoted this from wowhead save me? For the horde btw, i just want a different vanilla experience :D
By the https://classic.wowhead.com/spell=16916/strength-of-the-champion , I say ! I knew you were Horde https://classic.wowhead.com/object=181878/barrel-of-filth in https://classic.wowhead.com/spell=5170/disguise !! Not even https://classic.wowhead.com/npc=10182/rexxar can save you from the https://classic.wowhead.com/spell=5176/wrath of the Alliance !!!
As with everything else I post about, this is nostalgia.
I love the Rod of the Ogre Magi from the DM North tribute chest.
I spent a long time as a mage gunning for the Azuresong Mageblade, especially before ZG released and the alternative Bloodcaller was available, but man did that sword just not want to drop. I maybe saw a single instance of it in months of raiding MC. All the while I was using the Inventor's Focal Sword from Maraudon.
While all of this was happening, we were hitting Dire Maul like crazy to try to get the Quel'Serrar book to drop for our MT, and I ended up wanting and getting the Rod of the Ogre Magi. This thing saw me all the way through MC in the end, as well as through all of BWL, ZG and most of AQ20.
In the end though, I actually did get my Mageblade...
Yeah, I passed on the Mageblade because I was raid leading on that day we were running it, and so I was in charge of loot council. And despite me being mage class leader, never missing a raid, and people telling me I should take the sword, I worried I'd look corrupt taking it. So I passed on it and the guy who got it quit a month later and I never saw it drop again. RIP
Quel serrar hands down, managed to get it on retail so hopefully I can get it on classic aswell!

Lol. I didnt even think of bringing a Shaman buddy for some totem buffs. ><
Thrash Blade
I'm surprised no one has said https://www.wowhead.com/item=19351/maladath-runed-blade-of-the-black-flight yet.
As a warrior:
1. https://classic.wowhead.com/item=19019/thunderfury-blessed-blade-of-the-windseeker
2. https://classic.wowhead.com/item=18348/quelserrar
3. https://classic.wowhead.com/item=11684/ironfoe
https://classic.wowhead.com/item=1728/teebus-blazing-longsword
Actually I have never seen this weapon in-game. Probably the rarest thing I have seen :smile:
It has some rly nice stats, I wonder why I haven't seen it on anyone yet.
Jesus, I suddenly got an itching temptation to play a Warrior...

Yeah I can see the good warrior vibes from the shot of the manual there, but Teebu's is an amazing sword rogue item. That base damage is amazing.
My favorite item is undoubtedly https://classic.wowhead.com/item=19334/the-untamed-blade Always liked the style and it's one of my goals for vanilla to get one on my offtank warrior.
Easily for me it was https://classic.wowhead.com/item=17182/sulfuras-hand-of-ragnaros even if I could not use it, however https://classic.wowhead.com/item=10847/dragons-call was my first epic and holds a special place in my heart, also I think it looks neato!
