hi, i have made this mining route witch i use and i think is pretty good. I have tried mining routes in icecrown, also made my own, but i simply think its too inefficent might be all the mountain that slow it all down or mayby it just me....
anyway i think that farming saronite in sholazar basin is the most effcient place to farm, there might be more farming it, but much more ore. and of youre engineer thens theres gas clouds too
In this route you go to every single spot where it MIGHT spawn witch is pretty important after my opinion, because if some nodes of ore witch may be a little away from the rest, like the ones in the mountains in the northeast corner of sholazar basin, (witch btw, theres almost always 2 spwans nodes there, no one want to get them i guess) also when doing that there might respawn 2 extra nodes in the rest of the route youre going.
It really dosent matter where u start on this route, or what way youre going, the way the marks points is just that way i went.
normally on one tour of the route i get 150 saronite ores, and ones youve done all the route you can just do it again because its soo long that theyve allready respawned.
