What was your most memorable/favorite MMO moment?

Heard this question in the last live stream and I thought it would be a cool question to ask to the Ashes community. I will get it started.

In SWTOR, back in the day me and my buddy were bored and decided to forcibly flag PVErs for PVP and kill them in a daily quest zone. They rightfully got upset and got friends to help fight us both. We decided to get help because we couldn't kill an entire group of people alone, and things scaled so massively that in an hour the daily zone was filled with max sized raid on both sides trying to slaughter each other. The battle went on for a few hours with no clear winner, but the minor act of ganking spawned such a massive event sticks out in my mind.

So, what is your favorite/most memorable moment?

When I stepped through the portal to enter Verra.
It happened later this month!

Are you like a time traveller? Do you like to go backwards?

p.s. I just rewatched Primer yesterday and it had a funny line of "I haven't eaten since later this afternoon", and this reminded me of that

Too many, but all of them in World of Warcraft. From the first time entering Orgrimmar until the fall of Arthas in his Icecrown Citadel with all fun, entertainment, drama and too many playing hours in between.

Open World pvp at Tarrens Mill, weekend-long Alterac Valleys, raiding alliance cities and getting "For the Horde!" achievement (and the black war bear!), getting the first epic (Perdition's Blade) and legendary items (Warglaives of Azzinoth), reaching gladiator in Arena, receiving the Nether Drake Mount after weeks of farming, beating hard raid bosses after weeks of trying and progressing. Too many good memories.

That was without a doubt in all means the best MMO time I've ever experienced for myself, together with my friends and guildies at this phase of my (gaming) life.

In World of Warcraft, as a Mage, you could double-dip on the Shatter talent, which gave a big crit chance against frozen targets. First, you’d hard-cast Frostbolt and immediately follow with Fire Blast for massive damage. Another Mage trick was using Blink to negate fall damage.

Yeah, shatter combos. Or leap from warrior (negate fall damage). Or relfecting sheeps with spell reflection as a warrior - priceless. Nice memories, ariatras.

I didn't count spell reflection, as that didn't feel like a "secret tech" as it was in the spell description itself.

I more meant things like duelling a rogue, and running in a straight line away from said rogue (after having exhausted the roots and waited out CoS if applicable) and then jump, turn 180 degrees Cone of Cold, and turn back, all in the same jump. Your forward momentum doesn't change and the Rogue gets blasted by Cone of Cold (was my favourite way to practically nullify sprint and win the duel. Relying on frost armor was faulty, because you'd get blasted with a shiv and a 100% poison application it did

I've been playing rogue for years (and had a mage twink) so I can see and feel your described situation by full memory (from both side, so also the painful side eating the damage

)
Also smart situations were if a blind could be vanished miliseconds before, which was good portion of luck, but still was possible. To anticipate the blind of the enemy rogue by vanishing just right before was lot of fun, but I was only in a position to do this a handful of times, because it was difficult and good luck was needed as well.
