The "holy crap I can't believe that just happened" thread

This is just something I thought would be cool to hear everyones most memorable experience while multiboxing.
Guess I should start it off...

My best experience in my limited time with multiboxing just happened over the weekend. My shammies just hit 70 last week and started the BG grind. Long, LOOOOONNNNNGGGG grind with 3 shamans being
severely undergeared. I died a lot, I get picked on a lot, but continue to have fun and learn. After a full weekend of getting beat on I popped into a EOTS to grab some marks. First thing I hear is all of my team burning me
about mutliboxing and saying we should just let the horde win because I was there. So the game starts, I get on the move to DR and a few follow. As usual, here comes the whole horde team to DR. I don't know why, but I just threw everything I had at them with half our team watching from the start point. 5 minutes later, I have beat back their team to BE, with help from an awesome pocket healer. I then checked the map and saw that my team had finally decided to do something and took back MT. I tried to take BE from them but then the horde all decided to blow me up with everything. Respawned and went straight to mid to hold the flag. The pocket healer kept with me the whole time, and it was a constant back and forth in mid, while backing up MT and DR. When all was done we won 2k to 1500, and my team was asking how I pulled it off.

Just goes to show that even though your faction may just want to give up doesnt me you have to. Definitely an experience that will stick with me.

that happens a lot :)

the big problem is only the real afk's and ppl following u, cause dumb people saying stupid things, thats normal.

Yeah I hit 70 on Thursday or Friday and started doing some AV on Saturday. The first match I was in was non stop getting picked on (not necessarily about us losing but dumber stuff like "OMG you waste so much money" etc etc). Not only that but at least 5 people were just following me around doing nothing.

Combine that with it being my first AV, and I got stomped a lot and didn't do very well.

Well the next match everyone shut up about me multiboxing and played the game, and I had learned quite a bit from the first game, and we actually won. I wiped ally on galv so many times they just gave up and left him alive and moved on.

Of course, ever since then I run straight to galv when the match starts and no less than 20 alliance all show up at the same time, causing me to die quite quickly.

Either way now I feel like I'm making a decent difference in AV - I can solo balinda super easy now as long as no alliance show up. 5x grounding + bloodlust + bloodfury + trinket + EM = bal down without getting hit. Once she drops the water elemental I can either keep dropping groundings and risk getting hit or 1 shot her water elemental and then keep shooting her. Either way my groundings absorb everything.

I had someone come in and help me kill bal on one match and he was just like "Holy shit 5 shamans is crazy". Now whenever I join matches I get random talk about "Group <whatevergroupI'min> is Epic" and "awesome 5 shamans again" and random whispers about "I love it when I see you in the battleground".

I can't even imagine how awesome it will be when I'm in a full mix of S2/S3/S4 (assuming that happens before wotlk).

I got the usual hate when I started AV, but at 66 I was taking and capping towers every game. At 68-69 I started getting known, and getting some respect. I just hit 70 last night, so the real gear grind can start!

This is a true story:

I was in my scool and it has vending mashenes, so i want some candy so i put some monney in and the thing spins aroudn but the bag gets stuck and the machene gives me the monney back.
well i put it back in, get some oter candy (all goes fine). Then i hit the side of the vendor and BAM! the other bag drops down and i get a 2-for-1 !!!

i was like, holy crap i cant beleve that happend!

I was cooking and i put butter... or what i THOUGHT was butter into the pan and i ate it and then i looked at what i put in, and it was margarine! I was like! wow! i cant believe its not butter!


ok, seriously though. I think my most "wtf? woah!" Moment was in Everquest. I was grinding the earth wing in the bastion of thunder in the planes of power expansion when one of the named spawned and our group ran over to nab it. Well, halfway through the pull the warrior goes LD and then he drops, the named then proceeds to crush the cleric and then the enchanter and then comes over to me. Playing a ranger at the time I hit weapon shield and went full out dps. By this point the named is near 1% and im just praying that I get some lucky dodges and misses, and then finally I hit the floor and at the same time the named hits the floor as well. Triumph! but heres the best part. When I hit the floor, the named didnt actually kill me, I only went purple and then when the mob died i stood right back up. it was a GLORIOUS! moment.

I remember when our guild did Baron Geddon for the first time. A long long time ago in the days I single boxed. I was on my rogue so kept running in to dps and running out, dodging bombs, etc. When Geddon gets low, 2% or so, he does this melee range explosion if you don't kill him fast enough. Most of our raid was down due to living bomb "accidents" and people running out too slow during his fire nova pulses and then he did this last blast that killed everyone except me and a priest. So I ran back in and finished Geddon off before he could kill me.

I also dodged something like 7+ hurtful strikes in a row from Gruul when our offtank died on one occasion. We still wiped though :(

Once in Dire Maul, also pre expansion, I was amazed by a warlock (in pretty good gear) who kept 5 ogres feared in rotation when our MT and healer died. My rogue would just stun lock one and we would take it down while the warlock kept all the adds feared.

I also remember in EQ in one of the expansions they gave all the mobs a truckload of hp and fights took forever. Think it was the SoL expansion. We were fighting in this cave and we kept getting adds. I was playing an enchanter and kept mezzing the adds. Mesmerize is kind of the same as a sheep in wow except you can do multiples. So later on I had 6 or 7 mobs I was keeping mezzed in rotation while the group slowly beat through the massive hp of each mob. I think I was down to single digit mana at one point but we managed to pull it off. I think it is always memorable when your get pushed to its limits.

I was in AV earlier quite a bit over the weekend.

I've tried defending Balinda, but if I'm successful, it generally forces a turtle and we lose. So lately, my strategy has been help at Galv and then back cap towers. So today we did that and all was according to plan. I hadn't died and had back capped both towers when I realized that the horde didn't have a GY beyond RH.

We eventually ended up in the biggest turtle I've ever seen with almost all the Horde team in their base. We had a 1 tower advantage and so we were hopefully going to win, but we just kept crashing against them in their base likes waves on some godforsaken shore.

I spent most of my time standing between the walls just up the ramp heading into the Horde base, firing seeds like crazy until I was OOM. After my first few contributions, I ended up with 2 or 3 rotating pocket healers and was running out of mana 4 or 5 times before finally losing a character. I even made them understand that once half my team died, I just wanted the other 2 to die as well so I could regroup.

When the dust cleared I had over 500k damage per character and over 200HKs per toon. I was simply blown away by the amount of damage I put out, and the level of teamwork and support I found.

My Horde characters were grinding Mag'har reputation near the Laughing Skull Ruins (arena) in Nagrand very late at night. When I saw some Alliance doing the arena quest chain, I just HAD to kill them once. I wiped them of course and then I killed the arena boss too. Then, a couple of minutes later, I went back and did some /comfort commands on them, trying to tell them that I wasn't planning to attack them ... but they were in for revenge so the battle was on again and we killed off about 80% of eachothers' teams. At the end of the fight, both teams had 1 character left and decided to run. I should have foreseen that they would've struck back, but hey, what the heck.

So I tried again! I went back a bit later and saw they were still doing the arena quest chain. At that point I was basically spamming /comfort to all of the Alliance characters, as I was planning to help them this time. They were very VERY careful and they didn't know whether they should start the quest chain. A fellow Horde character showed up and told me they killed him too just then. We were both facing alliance (6v5) and you could just smell the tension: "Are they gonna attack? Why are they standing there? Are the waiting for us to start the boss quest to kill us then?".
Anyway, after some more /comfort and putting down totems with some /ready and /charge emotes they seemed to understand what the plan was. They continued their arena quest chain and we - the Horde - helped them do that. When they finished, I helped the fellow Horde with doing the same quest chain and then the Alliance took their turn to help us! After that we parted with a lot of friendly emotes.

To me, this was an awesome moment. It gave me a lot more appreciation than killing a 100 Alliance in a single battleground. Since then I'm not hostile anymore towards Alliance in open world PvP (unless I'm raiding some village/city). I don't really care about the honor points that I can get from them (it's too little anyway).

my most omgwtf moments were at lvl 60, AV. Horde would've destroyed SH and IW, captured SP GY and the gankfest at DB bridge began. After a few kills horde would rather attack other alliance then me, since i had 36 alliance behind me. I had like 3 healers keeping me up + myself. So i didn't die. I could throw LB's and CL's till i'm oom, move a few feet back to still get the HK's and drink. Then redrop totemfarm and unload again.
