A friend with an Alliance toon shared this story with me. This is his fast way of farming for Wool with little effort and no thinking involved. You could farm for Wool inside instances such as Stockades or the Deadmines. But the problem with instance farming is that even at level 70, you have to be alert must of the time.
Instance farming involves pulling the entire instance and downing the mobs in two shots or more. This might be a fun and exciting way of farming but you need to concentrate while doing so. So what if the mobs in Stockade are only level 25 elites, with 50 or more on you, you might doubt your skills. Plus imagine the cost of your repairs after your farm run.
My friend gave his Wool farming secret that’s less stressful and more fun. His farming spot is the Mosshide Gnoll camps in the Wetlands. What’s nice about these Mosshide Gnolls is that their spawn rate is insane. It’s as if when one dies, another one replaces it. Therefore as a level 70, you would not be experiencing any down time at all. AoE farmers would surely enjoy these mobs.
Not only will you loot Wool from the Mosshides but they also drop the greens that could be sold in the Auction House. Or if you have an Enchanter friend then you can have these disenchanted and sell the mats. You might also be lucky enough to loot at least a single blue item.
At level 23, these mobs could be easily handled even by a pickle geared level 70. You could start farming this spot at level 60. A Paladin would not need to drink for health or mana. Normal regeneration for both is enough to sustain you all throughout your farming session.
Before going out on your farming expedition, be sure to clear your bags of any unnecessary items. It would be ideal if you have at least 50 slots free in your bags. With that much free space, it would not take long before you fill it up.
So if you’re looking for a stress free Wool farming spot then head to the Wetlands. There are a couple of Mosshide camps scattered around the area. But if you want to feed your adrenaline and want some adventure then head to the Stockades. These are your options if you need to farm for Wool on the Alliance side.
