You know who they are, post them here. People who stand out in raids through quick, decisive actions that can bring a fight back from the very brink of doom. I'll start:

- A guest Druid in our Onyxia raid last night chain nuked himself completely OOM during phase 1 and then Innervated himself so he could do it again.

That's raising the bar.

Some warrior missed the learning phase of Molten Core to level up a hunter alt and buy him an epic mount only to completely stop playing him at 60 and go back to his warrior.

my friends guild had a warlock trail on a onyxia run (apparently warlocks are as needed on daggerspine horde as on twilights hammer alliance) who chose to curse of doom her as the first thing when she entered the lair, and then started nuking.

he never got the rank "member" :)

We had a nice incident in MC some time ago. We had battle prep for Garr and one of our shamans answered his phone. He put down his headset, though he accidently placed it on his move forward button. Was fun to see him just run right into garr, and hilarious to hear the explanation afterwards.

I've got some good ones- I won't mention names:

When getting ready for onyxia (before she was killed), a paladin put on autorun while running towards onyxia, then crashed. We were death touched.

A hunter sent his pet, Boris, at Magmadar then FD'd. He was the only one to survive.

A hunter pulled Baron into Garr's room with a lava pack.

A paladin got too close to rag when we were setting up for attempt #2 and aggro'd him.

A paladin jumped off the bridge with shield into golemaggs room, training lotsa mobs to us still on the bridge. There was no hearth :(.

A paladin used consecration right by 3 flamewalker healers which basically wiped us.

I once aggro'd 2 giants, but sadly no wipe from that.

I know I am forgetting stuff...

My guildie (Hunter) repeatedly falling to sleep over his keyboard in late night gaming sessions:

Suddenly going afk in LBRS after we cleared the spiders.
Sleeping on the "W" key in LBRS (same run) after we jump down to the trolls and aggroing a whole lot of them.

Myself, while playing my hunter alt, burning my own fingers with a cigarette and accidently hitting the arcane shot key to shoot the boss.

Our priests quote of the day:
"Hey, why do I have so low hp? Oh I forgot to put on pants"

A guest paladin on an MC run constantly dying after 3 seconds on each pull, but winning the obsidian edge blade later :/

The ONLY non-guild member of a Kazzak kill winning the staff he drops.

A guildie Rogue, after constantly getting hit in an UBRS run, announcing "he only bought rank 1 of feint".

A guildie Hunter, after constantly fighting in melee in an instance, claiming he "ups his 2h skill", announcing that he actually forgot to buy ammo as we stand in front of the boss. Luckily that wasn't the case either, he was just to stupid to drag it on the paperdoll.

It was 3 am and all the stupid priest and druids in our guilde were sleeping already. After searching for about 2 hours to get some healers to join us we finally entered ubrs and fought our way up to the door to realize that one of our warriors was afk at the instance entry. Sadly he was the only one with a key.
He fell asleep in his chair.

A mage who arcanie missles the orcs on the 2d floor from below during Rend encounter.

the same mage who gets ninja pwned on the 2d floor during Rend encounter and his body gets thrown below thereby triggering the orcs from 2d floor to run down.

and last but not least, logging into MC after a crash and running back to the group with 2 hapy mountain giant friends.

ok, the best must be when we had been practising majordomo for 6 hours and we finally were about to make it, one of our hunters (no blame on him, there was no way preventing it) had been disconnected and logged in directly on one of the fire elementals who had respawned during the fight near majordomo. Since we didnt have enough tanks/healers to divide to hold of the add we died and decided to let 8 hours of mc remain fruitless (although we had him easy the next time we went there, spawning rag and see him wtf own us was hillarious)

I once didnt notice that i was the geddon bomb... So i just kept on fighting (melee)... I blew every melee character up except the MT and... myself. But we made him that try anyway so no hard feelings <3

Leeroy Jenkins was a staged video. The guys that made it were at E3 and said they are making another one soon.

My personal best non-raid one was getting into position to backstab a Hippogryph in Azshara and falling off the nearby cliff to my death. What a long ass corpse run too.

Or what about the person in our guild who wanted to corner the mooncloth market =X.

Aurora

05-22-2005, 02:12 PM

the new PVP system came out, and i decided I would go farm crystals in azshara for my new epic mount.

so i start tapping this mineral vein, and i get no crystal :(
so i get myself saddled back on my mount and start riding to the next vein when i hear some clap a clap a clap behind me.

so i turn my camera around and i see two gnomes on humongo battle chickens ridin' hot on my tail. what do i do??? is this the end?

with my decisive thinking, i did the only thing a good player would do. i strafe jumped over the random hills quake three style.

it was no good though, the epic battle chickens were gaining on me by the second and my old level 40 warhorse with a carrot on a stick in front of him just wasn't chuggin fast enough. so i did the next best thing, i made straight for the cliff and jumped off.

turned my camera angle behind me, and saw 2 battle chickens jump off after me.

so with more quick decisive thinking i popped slowfall and watched the two gnomes on their battle chickens plummet past me to make a crater the size of kazzaks landhole. it was just like in the cartoons with bugs bunny and daffy duck.

i had to hearth to kargath to get out but it was worth it, especially knowing that they too would have to hearth out or take a 50 minute run around the edge of the continent.

First post here :D (been reading these forums for a while now but never bothered to register).

Somehow we managed to aggro 2 Core Hound packs and some imps too :shock:

http://img191.echo.cx/img191/9354/bob3cn.th.jpg (http://img191.echo.cx/my.php?image=bob3cn.jpg)

EDIT: I think we were trying to clear really quickly that time, and the hunter decided to pull one core hound pack before we killed the current ones, so they all got revived and then someone decided to pull the imps for fun :roll: .
