For people on PVE servers, Wintergrasp is the only place where they can do world PVP. But that’s not the only thing the region is good for. It is the place in Northend to farmer for the different crystallized elementals that are needed to make Eternal Elementals. The eternals are WOTLK’s version of Primals. These eternals are needed by different professions to craft items.
Just like the Primals of TBC, Eternal is made up of ten crystallized elementals. For example, to make Eternal Fire, which is by far the most expensive one in my server at 30gold, you need to have ten Crystallized Fires.
On any given time, Eternals sell for a lot of gold in the Auction House. But they are also the most volatile market around. Prices would depend on the supply. They might be cheap today but tomorrow would be a different story. I saw Eternal Earth dropped to 3gold a piece but today it’s up to 9gold each.
Because Wintergrasp is a PVP zone, players would automatically be flagged for PVP when one goes into it. This is also true in PVE servers. If you fly into Wintergrasp, you will be dismounted as well. Flying mounts could not be used here, only land mounts.
To fully get Wintergrasp’s gold potential, you must farm for elementals when your faction owns Wintergrasp. This is because at that point Elemental Revenants could be seen by WG’s owners. Every elemental have their Revenant version except that for life. Maybe it’s Blizzard’s subtle reminder that players need to get a life outside the World of Warcraft.
For Crystallized Air, the southern part of WG is home to the Tempest Revenants. Just hug the bottom border of Wintergrasp to find them. For Crystallized Earth, the Earthbound Revenants can be found in the middle of the map. A good concentration is around (56, 54).
In the west (16, 50) is where you can find the Shadow Revenants for your Crystallized Shadow needs. For Crystallized Fire, the place to go is at the east (84, 70) where there’s a number of Flame Revenants mixed with fire elementals as well. If you need Crystallized water, Water Revenants are found in most pools and frozen lakes around Wintergrasp.
If you’re looking to get some life (Crystallized Life that is), then go to the Steppe of Life. There you can find the Living Lashers. There’s no Revenant available for this mob and the drop rate for Crystallized Life is around 26%.
