I think my best happened today. I've never played chars that had overwhelming amounts of MF, so when a good unique or set item drops, it's always a pleasant surprise.

I made a mule game so I could drop off a nightsmoke belt for my low level sorc. I decided to do a baal run to kill the time. The mighty Hammerdin smoked through the minions, baal took about three or four hammers and out pops an [color=green3]amulet[/color] I was actually kind of hoping it was an Angelic because those things are shooting up in value. Much to my surprise, when Cain Id'd for it me it was Tal's ammy. I freaked, thought I'd either made the game in the wrong difficulty or that it was a bug of some sort.

So after the mule game I decide to do a pit and meph run. I killed a fallen in the pit and boom [color=green3]Laquered Plate[/color] I was so happy with this, I almost decided to call it a night, but finished the pits and did meph when my first ever Monarch dropped...the gods of mf smiled on me tonight. gogogogo 187% MF!
Very nice string of luck there! Congratulations! :thumbsup:

My most memorable drop(s) was just one neat coeincidence. While Mfing Meph in Nm back in .09, i went over to ther armor shrine, and out dropped a Stealskull(38%). On my next meph run the armor shrine gave me another Stealskull, this time 48 percent. That armor shrine has never dropped anything for me, not even a rare, and then out pops the same unique back to back.

i remember mine ....

You see, i never have any luck at all with mfing ... except for this.

I was playing with a friend of mine (he was in act 2nm, i was in 5 leveling up for hell) i had been complaining about my might merc's pathetic damage, when at the same moment i hit enter to send the message, my merc killed a random act 5 monster, and out popped a hone sondan, not ethereal, but still a very solid weapon for him.

Never had any situational luck like that before =)

My most memorable drop was the Tal Rasha armor I found in hell cows in 1.09.
The reason was that this was a cow lvl gone bad with cows all over the red portal. I had my mf barb there for exp and was just about to quit when this green laquered plate drops. I was just 1,5 screens above the exit so I was kind of stressed out until I could recover the armor 3-4 min later. I don't think I've ever tried that hard not to get killed, but when I finally got it I was so happy I could sing.

A long long time ago, in the most early days of Diablo2... Me and a friend were playing alot together, me a paladin and she a sorceress. Exceptional items were still a myth... Leather armors with over 100 defense? *HAHA* Yeah right... After dying a dussin times to diablo we finally smoked him and ventured on to nightmare. Stories of hell dif was told, every monster there was lightning enchanted and could flip you up side down by just looking at you. My paladin was most happy with his newly found warsword with the massive one hand damage of 35!! People were sooo jealous of me and my massive yellow sword and I thought it probably was one of the best weapons ever in the whole game.

On to nightmare, act1 was rather easy and we went to act2 sewer system. I open a chest and a yellow warsword drops. 'May as well id it, even though it can't be better than what I got' -I thought to myself. My eyes popped... Just over 50 damage and with life leech!! I was convinced now. The best weapon in all the D2 world was now in my hands, none other could have such a great weapon. I even called a friend to tell him of the extreme weapon I had found... He asked me if I had taken my pills. :howdy:

Jan = 1
Feb = 2
March = 3
April = 4
May = 5
So, 12 or so days of may + 30ish days of June (I don't know or care if either of them is 30 or 31) + 31 days of July...does 72 days old constitute necromancy?
<after looking at dates on last page>
Yeah, 18-05-2004 is the date of the last reply on the last page, I think that counts as digging up a post O_O

lets see. my very first unique i found was my gull dagger, during 1.08. i used it on my barb till he was like lvl 20 something, because i couldn't find anything with good damage.

most memorable was probably an IST rune in hardcore...2 times technically, but i couldn't get them either time...well...i got PKed on one of them...some leecher stole the other one...he quickly was PKed.

Most memorables:

Back in 2000 when I first bought the game and I located my first unique, and it was a Goldskin from some Unique Monster in Act 2. I was thrilled to have all that gold find.

In 2002, the impossible happened, the heavens parted and hell froze over. I was assisting someone through WS 2 when the holy of holies dropped...

ZOD I calculated the odds at around 33 million to 1. I quickly went out and bought a lottery ticket and found out I didn't win.

Playing my second single player character through normal(Sword Frenzy barb), I killed Norm Diablo and he drops a Set Amulet. Very happy because I had never seen a set ammy before, I ID'ed it and it was Tal's.

I thought, "Wow, that's a nice ammy, but I am not a sorc and it's level requirement is too high for me" and promptly sold it to Larzuk.
