Pretty much everywhere I go in WoW, there’s always that one drop which just continues to elude me regardless of the number of times I try to get it. On my first server, it was the

WOWITEM:

    Wildheart Kilt

. My druid ran UD Strat more than 50 times trying to get it to drop, and I never once even saw a pair drop much less lose out on a roll for them. Of course, the first time I went as a rogue, they dropped… Let’s just say the group I was in was lucky that we had already killed the Baron since Alt-F4 was the next skill that I used.

The statistical hate continued when I hit my new server and changed sides. Now, it’s the

WOWITEM:

    Dragonrider Boots

which persist on remaining out of my lovely loot tables.

But, last night, something happened. Maybe the servers finally recognized that I wasn’t going away no matter how hard they punished me. Maybe it was that good things sometimes do happen to good not-really-good people. Whatever. I got my lewts.

Let’s do a little setup. Last night was my first ever DM Tribute run. “Nub” you say and all I can do is agree. This was actually my second attempt at one since during my first one the guy with the

WOWITEM:

    Ogre Tannin

DCed right in front of Captain Kromkrush. This time, I had suckered all guildies onto my run, so we did fine. (By fine, I mean I only wiped us once due to a miscommunication of “go fix the trap” not having “after I Mind Soothe” attached to it. Tarcia put the SS on Khetti right quick and we all died on purpose since Slip’kik decided to join the party x( ) The end result of the night was perfect for me as the King dropped his
WOWITEM:

    Crown of the Ogre King

and then the Tribute dropped the
WOWITEM:

    Rod of the Ogre Magi

; those were the items I was after.

I suppose this means another 14 months of crappy drops for me after blowing my wad like that.
