Well, unlike many shaman on these boards, I don't go out of my way to try to solo big stuff often. But one recent memory is still in the forefront of my mind:)
I was two boxing my zerker and shaman, and had lfg on in WoS (on the zerker, was just going to leave the shaman out of group and level the zerk). Anyway, I was sitting near the NC side of WoS, and got up to get a drink of water. I come back to see that a group down the ways from me had pulled and wiped to that savage feranclaw named. I noted a couple things at this point:
1. The group had apparently tried to run to the NC zone out and wiped right at my feet.
2. My zerker was dead.
3. My shaman was at half life.
4. I had panther, a hot, a fast heal, haste and a bunch of buffs memmed.
So at this point, I'm like, oh crap. A split second later though, I thought to myself, "Well, I might as well go out fighting".
So fight I did hehe. I managed to get a hot on myself (man that mob hits kinda fast..), hit SC, hit my epic, tried like 5x to haste myself, finally landed thru the stuns and interrupts. At this point, I'm my life has risen to about full with the 3 hots running, and I manage to get panther on myself next.
The epic and aaid run out, and now I know its do or die. I break out my Time hammer with the 750 proc, and proceed to hit as hard as a shaman can, refreshing panther as I go. My hot cannot keep up with the damage, so I'm having to fast heal myself from time to time, and its really burning mana. It was touch and go several times, he'd get me to like 20% life, I'd crit a heal, bam, almost full again. I'd get stunned like 6x in a row, back to 20 life, bam! crit heal again. I was getting lucky.
Basically, my mana and his life was barely keeping equal, but in the end, I managed to yes.. melee a WoS named to death, that had wiped a full group:) hehe.
But I'm sure there are bigger and better stories out there than mine. I'm pretty sure most old world dragons have been solo'd. Klandicar, Trak, etc.. and on the front page, people are talking about solo'ing TZ in PoP now... so.. hehe.
