This is a WoW Guide on farming the instance Blackrock Depths for Large Brilliant Shards.
You can, of course, be lucky and get a Enchant Formula: Fiery Weapon (which goes for around 100G).
From a typical run, you can expect to get around 13 Large Brilliant shards which go for around 13G each – which means you make at least 169G per run. On top of that, you may also get a Goblin Jumper Cable XL Schematic (worth around 50G) and as said before, a Enchant Formula: Fiery Weapon. I manage to complete 2 runs an hour, averaging 530G/Hour!
I will explain the route I take via this image (click on it for a larger one):
- Bael’Gar [#11]
- Unlock Forge Gate [#12]
- General Angerforge[#13]
- Golem Lord ArgelMach [#14]
- The Grim Guzzler [#15] (Talk to Plugger Spazzring to buy 6 Dark Iron Ale, turn around and talk to guy right behind him and give him 6 ale. He will then open door for you, Now a golem will be blocking the door, fight him for the shard)
- Ambassador Flamelash [#16]
- Panzor the Invisible [a rare spawn]
- Summoner’s Tomb [#17]
- Go back to Grim Guzzler and check with Plugger Spazzring as he might have the limited item Pattern: Black Dragonscale Breastplate. It takes about 30 mins or of being in the instance before its spawns so I usually never see it because it does not take me that long to reach that point anymore, kill Plugger Spazzring after since he can drop Goblin Jumper Cables: XL
- Lord Incendius [#10]
- Warder Stilgiss & Verek [#8]
- Lord Roccor [#1] (Farm him for Enchant Weapon: Fiery Enchant)
- Repeat for as long as you want
I find that farming this as a hunter is a lot easier, especially with a pet with max fire resist etc. It is also easy to solo this instance, but be sure to have some decent gear for some smooth runs.
