    Sadly, I feel very UNLUCKY..... I keep getting awesome drops that are soulbound, but for the wrong characters.

    During 3.2, I was doing Argent Tournament dailies, and i got the Jourmangar egg quest for the Silver Covenant.

    Did the quest and was flying back, found the Time-Lost Proto drake flying right in front of me.

    Two seconds after I killed it on a mountainside, a Hunter fly's to me and cries. Made my next two months.

    My lucky story.

    Old wotlk days, going into VoA on the weekly guild run.
    Don't ask me which boss it was, because I honestly forgot.

    Now normally I hated going into VoA because for some strange reason whenever I went on toon X, gear for toon Y would drop and vice versa.
    I hated that place for shafting me every week on drops.

    Anyways,..all flasked, fed etc etc we pull the boss. Think we had one or two wipes before we got him down.
    Grand Black War Mammoth drops.....vent fills with chatter and oooh's and aaah's.
    Guildleader says /roll all.
    People roll and of our officers which I already didn't like rolls a frikkin 99.
    Ofcourse me being the ever pessimist about Voa, type a /roll, already expecting to have to type * gratz * to the lucky bastard who won it.

    Vent explodes with laughter and some slight swearing in the background ( rofl ).
    I look at my screen and realise I just rolled a 100 !!!

    Luckiest roll of my life :P
    After that I had to come every week to VoA, obviously losing all complaining rights I ever had.

    Before I was officially playing my own character, I found a TLPD on a friend's alt. No one wants a TLPD on their alt. I messaged another friend to come kill it ASAP, since I know people gun for TLPD even though its route is wonky. Luckily, he got there before anyone else, as I followed it.

    A week later, and after lots of route searching, I found my own TLPD. If you fly the routes, eventually you WILL get one. Can't say the same for the damn RNG pos mounts. That damn Raven mount...never...could...get...it.........damnit................

    I've been pretty lucky I must say. Got the tiger mount out of old ZG after casually running it a few times, never saw raptor. Hmm, got the raven mount on maybe the 4th attempt. In TK, and I'm a lock btw, I had the hardest time soloing Kael and I was getting frustrated. Kept attempting over and over and watching a video of someone doing it. Then I realised what I was doing wrong, first time I ever downed him solo, BAM, ashes of alar. I couldn't believe it. I was learning how to solo so I could come in week after week and try, but I never had to . When it was current, the 2nd time my guild killed heroic lich king, I rolled a 98 or something like that and won Invincible.

    "Already known"

    Third time it dropped in less than 30 runs. The mount from Karazhan is also sitting in my bags, since I've already learned it over 3.5 years ago. Exactly half a year later the old ZG raptor dropped, and 8 days after that the ZG tiger. Quite lucky when it comes down to mounts it seems.
    Ironically, I haven't seen two of the available pets from both TK and SSC drop in over a month on two characters

    Just out of curiosity, why are you still killing Kaelthas if you have the mount? The other three bosses in TK drops pets, but not him.

    Boredom mostly, since it's one of the last things I do on my weekly clears. You won't be seeing me in that place after I have my pets though, kinda getting sick of it

    I got Raven mount on my second try after activating my account again it made a lot of friends rage on me tho the salt was everywhere

    I think my total amount of doing the Sethekk for the mount is something around 10-15 from Cata since I didn't play in MoP but it was fun to see that RnG always comes around when you least expect it to

    I saw a Thunderfury Shard, Drake of the South Wind, and 12-B all in the same day on the same character.

    I passed on Drake of the South Wind to my friend since I won the 12-B last time, and then we do Dragonsoul, and 12-B drops again. He got two rare raid mounts in one day.

    2 seems to be my lucky number. My second solo attempt in Zulgurub got me the Zulian Tiger, I won the roll for the Amani War Bear on my second timed PuG and for last, my second card I bought from AH was the 5000g one, those lucky cards, forgot the name on those.
