Now That's Not Something You See Every Day


I'm was farming Thick Leather in Badlands when out of the blue a Robes of Insight dropped from a Nyxondra's Broodling.

For those who don't know the Robes of Insight are one of the most coveted transmog items of all time.  Head past the jump for more.

This is the kind drop that you only ever see once, if at all. It is that rare.

So, what now? Do I sell them? The global page for the Robes of Insight on The Undermine Journal shows the average price for the robes at right around 9,000 gold.

On the flip side I always get the feeling that things like this have a bit of good fortune attached to them. They act as good luck charms. A luckydo if you will.

I'll most likely just keep the Robes in my bank. Raidiating their positive vibes into my World of Warcraft experience.

I'm positive each of you has a very specific memory of where we were when we got a similarly rare drop.

I'm sure you still remember what character you were on, where you were and what the items was.

While you may no longer have the item I'd love hear your own super-rare-drop story. Share it with us in the comments section below.

In other words: What's your luckydo? 

(A few more images for good measure.)

    Those robes are lovely! I tend to keep any items of gear that catch my eye in my bank - just incase one day I use them in a 'mog.

      They are one of the best looking items in the game. (Don't tell anyone but you can get similar robes in AQ40.)

    Magnognomus sent us this comment: "Hi Jim,

    I was playing on my main mage Magnognomus, was finishing some quest in eastern plagueland. The quest was about to kill spiders in a cave, next to the river all the way on the west side. Come out and had to kill some other stuff when I looted:

    Blade of Wizardry.

    I was speechless for minutes. First time got an epic item from Vanilla zone. I kept it for the same reason as you. This is not a common thing.

    I got the Sulfuras eye too, but that's 4% so I would say it's a common item... (lol)

    You right, I won't forget what I did when it dropped. It's funny since we go all over the place and when things like this happens all the sudden we clearly memorize stupid things like the spiders around etc....

    Anyway Big grats on that, keep it as a luckydo"
