Its possible to mine everything independing skill level

[klikken20]

Hi

I discovered that i could mine Fel Iron ore with only 50 mining skill and get 2k xp each node. Witch is extremly much so ive been leveling from 60-63 just by mining and herbing. took less than 2 hours.
Its on EU. Anyone else discoevered this?

Its intended, you can farm ghost iron ore/mop herbs @ any mining level.

Alright, sorry. must have been a recent change.

"Recent" being over a year ago, sadly!

Oh, well tbh havent played for almost a year. Well sorry didnt know it, but its a nice way to level while making gold!

Holy shit...,i just leveled my mining alt to 600..

Seriously dude?.. get informed Patch 5.3: Mining and herbalism able to be leveled exclusively in Pandaria

[chronux]

What's the need of being agressive, Mr. Frankenstain?

You clearly stated it: Mining and herbalism able to be leveled exclusively in PANDARIA.
When have you ever seen fel iron ore in Pandaria?

Correct! You haven't.

& When you're going to try & tell how it was always possible to mine & gather EVERY type of mining or herb node... Well, then you are wrong.
In 5.4 I thought it was possible, so I tried to gather some herbs in ungoro, but I couldnt.

So unless there's a different system behind this, this has been changed.

Good find OP!

same goes for herbs and skinning, since in wod u only need lvl 1 they scaled everything down.

Sorry pal, but Fel Iron Nodes are not found in Pandaria but Outland.

That you mentioned was implemented after 5.3 in Pandaria only, but now in 6.02 they done it for all the nodes in the game world.

So, only a month, not an year

guess im taking mining/herbs on all of my chars to 100 then

[jimmys96]

60-63 in that time is nowhere near good I'm afraid... :s

[oranj]

what about disenchanting? can you de high lvl stuff with lvl 1?

[klikken20]

ofcourse it depends of what you compare to, comparing to RAF its nothing, comparing do classic questing i think its fine, and at the same time you make lots of gold. atleast on my server Fel Iron Ore/Adamanite Ore is going around 150-200 gold per stack of 20.

no.... you also can't do this with skinning for what i know. just mining and herbs.
