Ahem.

Lemme tell you all a quick story.

Way back in the day when I was like, oh, level 25 or 30 or so and first stumbled across BigRedKitty... he did a lot of talking about a little weapon called Legacy. How much he wanted it and how long it took him before he finally got it. I was still a newbie and knew very little about this game but I knew that this must be one heckuva weapon. I started seeing other hunters with it and thinking any hunter who had it must be one epic hunter. How I longed to be an epic hunter someday like that, but it wasn't ever gonna happen, I was sure, because I was never gonna see Karazhan.

So all this time, ever since I was level 30, I'd longingly inspect those Legacy-sporting hunters, certain they'd forever be out of my league.





This is a happy day in Hunterland.

Edit: Well, I wound up doing even more gear-switching than I thought. I finally equipped my [Violet Signet] (I am 2% of my rep away from Exalted, by the way) to make up for the Hit Rating loss I got from equipping Legacy. Then I went to put my badges in the bank and discovered that you can only have a stack of 200 badges and I had 201. So I splurged and bought [Scaled Drakeskin Chestguard]. Next stop: Choco-Bow. In the meantime, buffed only with Aspect of the Hawk, I have jumped from 538 to 560 agility, from 1659 to 1705 attack power, and from 24.66% to 25.21% crit.

It has been a good day.

Gratz on Legacy. I have been running Kara longer than I would like to admit. I have only seen Crone once....and of course she did not drop Legacy. Once again...Gratz!

Well... except its not in my hands *cough*

Gratz. It's a fine axe but the difference for me was I was going from Crystalforged Waraxe so this was just a straight upgrade as the Sonic Spear never dropped from Murmur for me.

Funny thing is, Legacy dropped the first time I entered Kara. Sad, that I didn't won the roll :( It never dropped since then. But I got Wolfslayer-thingy yesterday so I have no doubt that it will drop again the next 100 Kara-runs ^^

Congratulations on Legacy! After months of running Karazhan, my poor hunter never managed to snag the axe; the one time it dropped, an Enhancement shaman from my guild won it on an open-roll. Since the rule of the raid was roll if you wanted it, I sadly found myself wanting to wring his/her/its neck.

What's the next piece of awesome huntery loot on the list?

@ Cynra -

Attumen's necklace (name escapes me at the moment), the Beastmaw Pauldrons and the T4 helm are what I've yet to nab out of Kara-- to be honest I'm in no big hurry to get the latter two because they would break my Beast Lord set bonus which I love to death. But, they are a few of my remaining blues, so...

Yes, the day Legacy finally drops and you know its yours....priceless! Whatever you do, don't look up Trollbane. Don't do it!
