    Worst you have felt about...

    I would like to know when everyone has felt the worst about their respective professions. Things like an item you made and grew attached to being replaced, an item backfiring at a crucial time, or whatever else!

    Personally, the worst I ever felt while Enchanting was a recent VOA run... We had 0 Death Knights, and one hunter with no need for the gear... At the end of the run, I had to Disenchant the Prot DK t10(sanc!) pants and gloves, prot DK t9 pants and gloves, Hunter t9 pantsx2, Warrior DPS t9 gloves, and Rogue t9 gloves.

    And then I got called a ninja for D/Eing stuff that was useless. : /

    Engineering, my worst experience was getting the Northrend Wormhole generator, porting immediately to storm peaks, and seeing a dead Time-lost Proto Drake no more then 20 yards away. Yeah.

    Probably when I looted the Jeeves schematic on an engineer and realized I wouldn't be able to make it for a long time. D:<

    (Still can't make it...I stopped playing that character before I got engineering past 430.)

    Shouldn't this be in the profession forum?

    Anyway, I held onto my Phantom Blade long after it was useless because it sheathed on my back.

    Did this as well... :-| (including the part of retiring the character)

    One question for the OP though: Can you actually disenchant tier sets? Been quite a while since I raided anything so haven't tried ICC but remember being unable to do it in the past.

    And the item that was the hardest to let go of? Might be my Felheart Shoulders or whatever the name of that lightning bolt-shooting staff from Golemagg was, back when I played a lock and TBC came out. :-( I remember the chaos when bidding for those two...

    My Nigh Invulnerability belt... We had good times together. Just me and him against the world... And then there was his brother Rocket Boots. He was a cool guy. But then people cried tears that engineers had a *gasp never before heard of!* advantage in PvP.

    I though this too untill i actually tried to get all the mats

    i ended up spending about 1500g

    kinda worth it to save time waiting for someone to HS to bank and come back

    my Lionheart Executioner. Epic looking, epic epic, cost a FORTUNE to make, was still using it on my fury warrior until recently due to stubborness.

    I collected probably near 100 frozen orb things for my tailoring. I found that I did not need them that much so I sold them for probably 10g each. THEN CAME A PATCH WITH THAT FROZ GUY.

    I had the rocket boots engineering put on my boots.

    Hopped into AB

    Was using them to get away from alliance, when all of a sudden...

    BOOM!

    I was launched up into the air, parachuted slowly to the ground and to an angry mob of alliance.

    You should have ditched the parachute. Die by your own hands rather than give them an HK!

    So Draeneis don't just crash ship but have malfunctions in engineering too?
