Hey guys,
My prepaid has ended today, so I had a little time to spare to write a little guide, how am I usually farming Motes of Harmony. Hope you like it
1. The Place:
2. The Enemies:
a) groups of Ik'thik Warriors (Level 90, 296k HP) (yellow dots) + screenshot
b) flying over the wall Ik'thik Warriors (Level 87, 215k HP)
Loot tables are exact, just flying ones don't drop dread amber shards.
3. The Guide:
There are two stages of farming.. or maybe two options:
a) Look on the map - mobs are located in the yellow dots in groups of 7 or 8 + one big guy (about 300k hp). They deal really low damage. I play warrior, so I just whirlwind them down in a few seconds. There are a few groups with 7-8 warriors on the 'road'. You can clear them easily without pulling others, and that big giant walking around. Respawn time for every group is about 3 minutes (at 3:00 first mobs are spawning, the rest should be spawned after 10-20 secs).
b) Ik'thik Warriors are spawning and flying over the wall in two spots. I couldn't make screenshots, because I don't have a game time, so I made a painting:
They are spawning all the time.
They are spawning in Dread Wastes (first green star) and flying over the wall (second star) to the Valley of the Four Winds (third star), on both sides of the wall's break, but the break is too big to catch both of them at once, so for ranged characters it's not important where do you stand, because they are not flying over 40 yards from you, but if you are melee, like my warrior, you should stand where yellow arrow shows, and /cast throw at them, or something.
They spawn very fast and sometimes in pairs, but you have enough time to taunt/throw at them. They are moving really slow. They are dealing very low damage, they don't use anything, just autoattack and pierce armor. If they stop spawning for a while, change side of the wall, or farm guys from section a).
If you pull some more on yourself and find it hard to finish them down, you can use help of the two pandaren wall watchers (I put them on the picture).
Mocking banner works nice there, just place it just where yellow arrow shows. I wonder if you can put it down on the right side, when you actually fight left one, to pull both sides - never tried...
That's pretty like everything. I used it to farm motes really fast. I can't remember how long did I farm a full Spirit of Harmony, but when I needed 3 spirits I went there and I got them very soon. If something is not clear, tell me and I will try to explain.
Good luck
