wow What is the Nicest Thing a Stranger Has Done for You?

[Stan 5,240]

Here is a compilation of the nicest things that strangers have done for others in WoW.

The first one is a Classic; a player back in Vanilla got rez-killed, so they asked in the chat if anyone was willing to help them. A level 60 Rogue invited them to a group and killed the players a couple of times, and made them disappeared.

Card

Back in Wrath of the Lich King, Reddit user Karutala completed Argent Tournament daily quests and tried to solo the frostwyrm that required 3 players. Right before they were about to die, an Undead Mage polymorphed them, which was confusing at first, but it rapidly increased their health pool, so they didn't die thanks to it. The Horde player broke the polymorphed and helped them kill the frostwyrm. They completed the quest together each day for a week and never saw each other again

Card

Stefanciobo also shared their story. It was during Vanilla when they leveled a Dwarf Warrior. The player killed 3 mobs and was left with 5% health. Suddenly, a Warlord Shadow Priest appeared that targeted them. The player thought the Priest would kill them, but instead, they got mind-controlled, received a Stamina buff and a Renew.

Card

Another wholesome story from Vanilla. TheSaw's first character was a Night Elf Druid. They encountered a level 58 Rogue and another newbie. The Rogue escorted them all the way from Darnassus to Stormwind and gave them 10 gold in the end when they reached the city.

Card

Here is a story of two strangers giving away loot in Heroic Shadowlands dungeons because they didn't need it. The player also tries doing the same to return the favor.

Card

Way back in The Burning Crusade, a player was trying to reach the other continent on a low-level alt, corpse-running through Stranglethoirn, and a Tauren escorted them all the way to Booty Bay.

Card

Chibisatou had a few wholesome points throughout his WoW playtime. The player was given a Sandstone Drake, got escorted from Undercity to Shadowfang Keep, and more.

Card

A random person gave an Ethereal Soul-Trader to Reddit user Suulia.

Card

Back when Jeff reached level 30 with their Orc Warrior in Vanilla, a level 60 Troll Mage carried them through a quest for their Whirlwind axe.

Card

A mad Dwarf carried a player through Azsuna and helped them get Reins of the Long-Forgotten Hippogryph free without wanting gold.

Card

Back in Legion, 2 Priests disagreed about a boss fight, so they have set up a wager. The loser would buy the winner a store mount...

The loser conceded gratefully and bought the winning player the Enchanted Fae mount.

Card

A random person in Oribos traded Shinslap a Legendary Base Item because they had bought the wrong one and were too lazy to put it up on the Auction House.

Started a level 10 twink on a new realm (mostly for grinding leather appearances), asked trade chat if someone could loan me 10 gold to pause XP before I dinged 11--and this total stranger mails me 1k gold and tells me "to pwn those noobs xD"

Pretty pog gamer moment.

Love to read nice stories like this. 

I've encountered many great and friendly people over the years.  The first event that came to my mind though was was back Vanilla when I was leveling a human priest.  I was in the Searing Gorge and had a group of mobs attacking me. I tried my best to fight them, fear them, heal myself, etc. but was pretty much done for when this level 60 tauren warrior was running by and jumped into action.  It was a PvP realm so he could have easily killed me as so many would do but instead he charged in, killed those mobs and saved me.  I was thankful but still warry as those on PvP realms can be when faced with a higher level enemy. To my surprise he saluted me, mounted up and continued on his way to Blackrock Mountain.  Now to this day I have a soft spot for tauren ❤️

ran across a troll who was killing black whelplings while i was farming for the pet, they asked if i was farming for the pet and i said yes and they just traded it to me.

I gotta give a shoutout to Brewdwarf on my server who gifted me the 15th Anniversary mount just for finding him in Stormwind. Lovely guy, he used to give out stuff to people all the time. Shame he doesn't seem to be around the server anymore.

I've had several experiences with players randomly doing nice things for me. I had someone give me 30g back when I was a new player at the start of BC. I've had rezes out of the blue by people who wanted to help.

I've tried to pay it forward. With Shadowlands, I sometimes hit the same mob another Alliance player's hitting. Even if it's a wandering hall monster, I fireball them down. Then I will give Arcane Brilliance to the person who was fighting. With a lot of people running, there's a lot of time that I will hit the same mob.

I have 26 toons, all horde, so I decided to make an alliance toon on a low-pop server just to experience the leveling. Of course, this meant I had no resources except anything account-wide, like mounts and pets. I caged up one of my mid-priced pets and put it on the AH to get gold for bags. I also tried asking in chat if anyone was willing to trade gold on one of my high-pop servers for some gold on this one. I got a response and this player gave me 5k gold then and there, then waited for me to send it to them on their other character. I know 5k isn't much these days, but it means a lot to a level 1 with nothing and no alts to help. I immediately thanked her then logged onto my other character to take care of business. It is a big responsibility receiving someone's trust. Her grand gesture deserved no less than my full and immediate attention.
