Halfling mask was tedious and ranks pretty high in my memory of time spent camping an item (at least in terms of one I actually completed). I camped it with my bard sometime after the Planes of Power expansion came out, and I was in a pretty small guild so my gear wasn't the best. Took forever to kill each PH (beatdown, mez/heal, rinse repeat etc etc.). But I had kept a pretty accurate list of each placeholder and each drop etc. If I recall, the mask finally dropped somewhere in the 1100 range of placeholders... *cringe* I wasn't so lucky it seems.
But the all-time worst camp for me was that damned Goblin Alchemist in the Gorge for the monk Treant Fist quest. I spent years camping that thing (usually in blocks of 6 hours at a time). Over the years better items came available with the newer expansions, but I always wanted to finish that quest just out of principle. It was never to be. So from 1999 until 2006... that Goblin Alchemist eluded me *shakes his fist*
