Back when Sorrows Furnace came out and when 5 man farming groups farmed that area to death. I got Drago's Longbow, Brohn's holy rod, and Razorstone all in one run.

Sup Vigors and Absorptions back when they sold for an easy 100k
Ecto drops in piles of 4
First Sapphire from Nolani
r9 15>50 Crystalline from the old chests

Betas and a month or 2 after release were the best ever.

my first crystalline sword came out of the chest after clearing the labrynth and it had no damage mod, I was pissed.

Not really sure though cant recall anything other then that I was really excited about. When factions first came out I got 15>50 req 9 plagueborn daggers and sold them for 300k, that started my fortune that could be it...

About 10 months ago I went through a strange phase where I got three of everything within a day or so.....3 sup vigs, 3 black dyes and 3 victo's axes dropped for me in as many days. With merchant prices as they were at the time, it funded a couple of sets of 15k armour.

My most memorable single drop, however, was a gold req12, max dmg Elemental sword, 20/19 sundering, +15% in a stance (inscription), enchant 20% longer. It dropped during a sunspear point farm from remains of salahja......I still have it, and I have no idea whether to mod it to a warriors sword or a casters sword...

in my 2 years, the best drop i ever got was a req8 15^50 tyrian longsword, but the one who sold for the most is a req11 Mursaat Hornbow +15^50 which i sold for 100k+35e back wen it was worth something,

Edit: now that i think about it, the drop that i will always remember will be my first gold item, it was a gold fire staff 9-17 (don't remember the req) which i got from a drake in gates of kryta back wen everyone was doing drake runs :P...i would give everything i got atm to go back in time...nostalgia ftl

Peobably the firts oen I had ever gotten. I was alreayd playing in the Jungle of my first char, and had not received a gold that far. I was in a party doing one of the first jungle missions, and someone else got a gold drop. I was a big newbie in those days and was all like ''wow, gratz man, you know, I have never gotten a yellow one so far'' and the next enemy drops...jep a gold, for me. it was acrappy offhand, but still, firts one ever and carried it around for weeks.

The one I remember above all others is when I was a steamrolling MM back in the good ole days of Sorrow's Furnace. I got, in one run, a Gordac's Needle, Tanzit's Defender, and Villnar's Claw. Since then, I've never gotten another green on any character.

The runner up would have to be my R9 inscribable Fellblade that dropped during a normal Vabbi chest run. I know I could make a bunch of money off it, but I've always wanted a perfect Fellblade of my own.

It was the first week of December, I was farming when a White Dye dropped... I sold it to the trader for ~14k. Not my best drop for sure, but it was memorable

Black dye drop from killing a grasp actor last weekend

Just running quest for victory tokens and boom completely unexpected black dye drop.... what are the odds - since I wasn't killing anything else but them.
Got it on the temple quest.

Nice....

Hmmm, several weeks ago I was HM chest running out in Pongmei Valley, and got a Req 9 15>50 Jade Sword. I nearly had a heart attack when I ID'd it (since I never get anything good). I then realized that the value of golds was very low, so it wasn't as z0mgub3r as I first thought it to be...I traded it for a req 10 20/20 15>50 HP +30 Chaos Axe, and sold that for 60k. So basically, I made 60k off the sword. My other most memorable drop would have to have been my first green drop in Grenth's Footprint when Sorrow's Furnace was introduced...it was a Thorgall's Stone Smasher. I was ecstatic, since it dropped with a full group of henchman. Yeah, then there is the first time a Sup Vigor dropped for me...and then I ended up normal salvaging it in all the excitement. ><

My most memorible ever was when I had a Grape req 9 max damage crystiline 14^50 dropped for me out of a chest from the last Roy Stonekin quest. I squandered it to a player for like 150k. Poor choice on my part. D:

Second most memorible was shortly after hardmode, I opened a chest, and found a perfect req 9 dead bow 15^50 +30 zealous. I never sold it; my ranger still uses it when she does something other than trappng.

And, lastly, my third would be a perfect req 9 dead sword from the ungrateful slaves quest. Sold for an easy 60k. This was right before the dead sword bubble tanked to a saddening low.

Hmm never really had many good drops. Bought everything. Most memorable would be my first gold. It was a req10 clever with no dmg mod, dropped in the jungle when I was questing. This was back in May/June 2005
