Rarest Item you own?

While I haven’t played wow for that long so I don’t have much rarities amassed in the game, I do have the Diablo 3 collector’s edition pet.

Thank you, I promise i will never level it. Had some talk with guildies that play vanilla now and they all say its to easy haha. But what they dont get to experience is how it really was doing it back in 2004-2005 and so on If i remember right.

Can not remember we had any complete dungeon/raid guids we could read or videos explaining every single thing in the fights. Raid boss strategies was treated as a guild secret of some sort. Another thing i just came to think of now was the size of your screen you played on. The most common i think for a gamer was around 17 inch CRT screen or so. They should force vanilla to 17 inch window when playing it haha. Would love to hear if that makes any difference in experience when you have all addons and stuff on your screen and at same time see the boss and 39 other raiders. :slight_smile:

Best recent time memory i have with this character was when Korraks Revenge came (The Christmas Old School AV). It was before all stats and levels got squished and it was so fun playing this character in AV. it was one of the best things that christmas for me. Was so happy last christmas when i read that it was returning. Sadly the big level squish happened and the balancing was horrific. It took me 30-40 sec to flash heal a player with 20% HP to full health.

I don’t really have anything rare rare, but back when I got it the Time-Lost Proto-drake used to be really uncommon. Loved the confused whispers when I flaunted it around!

This thread made me look in the bank of my old main, there are quite a few rare things i guess:
Barov Peasant Caller
Draconic for Dummies I-V
Agent of Nozdormu
The War of the Shifting Sands
Spectral Essence
The Postmaster
Ironforge Memorial Ring
Idol of the Raven Goddess

Probably the 2008 Olympics tabard considering how unlikely it is that all the people playing back then are still active today.

Otherwise I guess the BFA LW profession item should be one of them.

BFA wasn’t a great expansion. The professions in BFA were worse than usual, LW in particular wasn’t doing especially well and the profession item was particularly useless.

I’d say that odds are fairly high that most people didn’t finish that questline & that it’s uselessness made that item fairly rare all things considered.

Magic Rooster. If that counts…

I have this too. I also have a 2007 brewfest mug…

Looking at that made me realise that most PvP stuff is pretty damn rare being sub 1% of the population.

Spirit of competition pet
Competitors tabard
baby blizzard bear
Sinful gladiator mount
Dread gladiator mount
Arena master title
Phenomenal cosmic power + title
Old ZG tiger
Old ZG raptor
Big love Rocket
Multiple rare names on my characters
MOP challenge mode transmog sets + mounts
WOD challenge mode weps

That’s from the top of my head, there’s WAY more

back in the day when mounts you aquired stayed on the char who got it i had the time lost on 2 chars

I agree, I had so much fun playing this char too. I wish so bad that they would look at people like us more and stop writing us off as “random twinks who just want to gank levelers”, when in reality we just want to play these characters without ever leveling up because of our history with these characters.

I’ve done sooooo many things on this character, and i’m far from done… I just hope… I wish they’d stop actively excluding me from participating in stuff like bgs, dungeons, etc… because I have my XP locked.

Edit: Oh and god… why… why are raids 30+ now…? Like… why would they do that to us… it makes no sense to exclude us from literally, our own raids…

A lot of random rubbish like old reagents (e.g. Blinding Powder), items from old quests (e.g. Faded Photograph), and other misc (e.g. The 1 Ring) and most importantly, Taric’s Family Jewels from the green flame warlock quest

Quite a trip down memory lane.

According to Data of Azeroth:

Pet: Lurky from TBC Collector’s Edition (<1%)

Mount: Hand of Hrestimorak (3%)

I also got Illidan’s off-hand glaive back in TBC. Maybe I should bother to get the main-hand some time during time-walking for the transmog.
