WoW Guides For Gold

When your side has control of Wintergrasp, you’ll be able to Elemental Revenants, which are greater elemental spirits that have a 100% chance of dropping 1 to 3 Crystallized Elements. This is by far the best zone to farm for Eternals for WoW gold. Wintergrasp is open for level 77 players with flyers.
Each Elemental has their own zone where they would respawn. If you’re looking for Crystallized Shadows then go west towards the Forest of Shadows (21, 53). There you can find Shadow Revenants and Wandering Shadows. Crystallized Shadow sells for at least 1gold each. When converted into Eternal Shadow, it will go for 10gold a piece.

Steppe of Life (10, 62) found in the Southwestern part of Wintergrasp is the place to farm for Crystallized Life. There you will find Living Lashers. There’s no Revenant version for them so don’t bother looking for one. The drop rate is still good but their respawn rate is awful. They would drop greens as well that you can sell for your repairs. Herbalists can skin them for herbs as well. Each Crystallized Life sells for 5gold each. When converted into Eternal Life then you can sell it for 50gold each.

To the Southeast you’ll find the Cauldron of Fire (86, 68). This might be the most camped area of Wintergrasp because this is where Raging Flames and Flame Revenants spawn. A single Crystallized Fire can fetch up to 10gold in my server. Eternal Fire can be sold for around 70gold. I recommend that you sell Crystallized Fire instead of converting them into Eternal Fire.

Head south of Wintergrasp and there you’ll lots of Tempest Revenants and Whispering Winds. There’s an issue regarding the spawn of Tempest Revenants. You’ll see them only in Wintergrasp while they’re located in what is considered Dragonblight already. So when you engage them, they’ll disappear. Hopefully the coming patch fixes this bug. Crystallized Air sells for 5gold each. Eternal Air sells for 50gold each.
Lastly if you’re looking for Water and Earth elementals, you don’t need to look hard for them. Glacial Sprits, Water Revenants, Earthbound Revenants, and Chilled Earth Elementals are found all throughout Wintergrasp. Anyway Crystallized Earth and Crystallized Water are the cheapest at 1gold each.

As you can see, the control of Wintergrasp can be profitable for you. So be sure to help out in controlling the zone for your faction to enjoy farming for crystallized elementals in it.

I love the new worth. With the Wrath of the Lich King come a lot of potential gold makers. I checked the Auction House for overpriced items and one stood out among the rest. Crystallized Life sells for 60gold each in my server. Tailors and Alchemists need this to craft several items, such as Shining Spellthread and Mighty Shadow Protection Potion. This is the WoTLK version of Mote of Life while the Eternal Life is the Primal Life. So begins my quest for WoTLK’s Bog Lord.

I’m not a Herbalist therefore I need to find monsters that would have a decent drop rate for Crystallized Life and during my search I’ve found several mobs that I found that do drop the coveted item.

First on my list is the Level 69 to 71 Thornvine Creeper found at Northern part of Howling Fjord (53, 16). I observed that they have a pretty low drop rate for Crystallized Life but they do have decent vendor trash and I looted a green item but if you’re farming for Crystallized Life, this mob is not recommended.

Then while doing the quest Strengthen the Ancients in Dragonblight, I found out that the Woodland Walkers that drop the Bark of Walkers needed for the quest also drop Crystallized Life. I needed 3 Bark of Walkers for my quest and on my last kill I also looted a Crystallized Life. That’s 1 in 5 kills. I thought the drop rate is pretty decent so I went on and farmed them for Crystallized Life. Turns out, the drop rate is pretty much the same as with the Thornvine Creepers.

Last but definitely not the last on my list are the Mossy Rampager found in Zul’Drak. This level 75 to 76 monster is what I consider the Bog Lord of the WoTLK. They have a pretty decent drop rate for the Crystallized Life. The downside for this is that you have to be at least level 78 to maximize your farming potential.

I’m sure the price for Crystallized Life will be lower after a couple of weeks into the Wrath of the Lich King. The respawn rate is fast, much like every mob in WoTLK these days. I’m sure it would normalize after a month or so. Therefore if you have a level 78 toon then I suggest farming for Crystallized Life today. That way you can afford getting a Traveler’s Tundra Mammoth of your own.

Timbermaw Hold might be a Classic WoW faction but it would be rewarding for an individual to build up one’s reputation with them. It has rewards for Blacksmiths, Alchemists, Leatherworkers, Tailors and Enchanters. Be ready for the long grind to up your rep with the faction. There are two zones in which you can grind for this faction’s rep with two to three areas to visit in each zone.

One of the zones to grind for Timbermaw Rep would be Felwood. Here you can find Deadwood Avengers, Gardeners, Den Watchers, Pathfinders, Shamans, and Warriors. With each kill you’ll get 4 rep points. You could also do quests to level your rep. One of which is Deadwood of the North. This is a grinding quest wherein you must kill a number of Deadwood mobs. Once you’ve completed this quest, you’ll unlock a repeatable quest where you’ll be required to turn in five Deadwood Headdress Feathers. Each turn in is equivalent to 300 Timbermaw Hold Rep. The mobs would also drop Deadwood Ritual Totem that starts a quest. Turn the quest in to Kernda for 1,400 rep with the Timbermaw Hold.

You could also try going to Winterspring for your Timbermaw Hold rep grind. What you need to grind for rep would be the Winterspring Pathfinders, Totemics, Shaman, Den Watchers, Runners, Ursas, and the High Chief Winterfall. When you don’t get any XP from the kill, High Chief Winterfall is worth 8 rep. You could also do the Winterspring Activity quest to unlock the repeatable quest where you are required to turn in Winterspring Spirit Beads. 5 pieces of Winterspring Spirit Beads is equal to 300 Timbermaw Hold rep. There’s also the unrepeatable quest drop called Winterspring Ritual Totem that rewards 1,400 rep.

These are some ways in which you can grind for Timbermaw Hold rep. Once you’re exalted with the faction, Gorn One Eye would offer you a quest called Root of All Evil. Do this quest and you will receive a trinket called Defender of the Timbermaw. When used, it summons a Shaman that can cast lightning bolt and healing wave. You’ll have an extra DPS and healer in one.

Building up your reputation with a classic faction such as Timbermaw Hold is always fun. Not only that you’ll can purchase certain recipes for your crafting profession. While everyone is busy at the Northend, you can easily wonder around Winterspring and Felwood for your Timbermaw Hold grind.

The first part of this series tackled the farming spots for Primal Earth, Wind, and Fire. This time around I’m going to tackle the farming spots for Primal Air, Mana, Shadow and Life. Just like the first three Primals, these four are in demand even when WoTLK has arrived.

First on the list is the Primal Air. There’s only one place in the World of Warcraft that you could farm for these. Because of that this spot is heavily farmed. Good thing that the spawn rate for the Air Elementals is fast. The spot is located in Southeastern Shadowmoon Valley. Because of the competition, you would probably get 2 to 3 Primal Airs in an hour.

To farm for Primal Manas, be sure to get the daily quest Maintaining the Sunwell Portal. Then go to the Bash’ir Landing where you’ll be doing both the daily quest and the farming for Primal Mana at the same time. To o this, you must first kill the Ethereals until they drop the Bash’ir Phasing Device. Then use this to go into phase. Once in this state, you be able to see the Phase Wyrms. These drop Motes of Mana at a decent rate. An average of 5 Primal Manas could be acquired in an hour.

If you need to farm for Primal Shadows, the best spot to grind for these would be the area around Oshu’Gun in Nagrand. They have a bad drop rate but this is the only area where a large concentration of Voidspawns is located. Extreme patience is needed with this grind. You’ll be lucky to collect at least 3 Primal Shadows in one hour.

Lastly we have the Primal Life. These might be the easiest Primal to collect in the World of Warcraft, especially if you’re an herbalist. Fly around the Outlands collecting herbs and expect to gather a couple of Primal Life along the way. Don’t fret if you are not an herbalist. Zangarmarsh is the place to farm for Primal Life. You can either go to the Northeast area of Dead Mire, the Southern region where Funggor Cavern is located, or in the Southwestern region near Quagg Ridge. The three zones more or less have the same drop rate for the Motes of Life and you could probably harvest a minimum of 4 Primal Lifes in one hour.

As you can see, farming for Primals gives you a lot to choose from. If a farming spot is crowded, you have plenty more options to choose from.
