Little Spore Bat Pet (REP ITEM)
Macro's
This First one wasn't created by me, I found it on some random website, and loved it. ^^
Everybody knows their favorite farming spot, but sometimes it's just too camped. Well here is a guide i've put together for zone-by-zone farming spots. They may not be all the best moneymakers, but may just be better than that overcamped favorite at the time. I have gotten most of this info off of a different website, but i just compiled it all into one for you guys.
I will organise this by level starting in Zangarmarsh because it's where the basic gold farming begins, and can be done by lower levels. Just a quick note: These maps have indicators where rare spawn sort of path, so if you are near them give it a quick look. Might get you a gold or 2.
Zangarmarsh
South West and Dead Mire Bog Lords
[Mote of Life], [Unidentified Plant Parts], [Bog Lord Tendril], various herbs.
Not much to do here if you're really looking for money, but it's a good low-level farming spot and it will also let you farm your Cenarion Expedition (until honored) and Sporeggar (until friendly) reputation.
Greater Spore Bats
Greater Spore Bat
[Fertile Spores], [Unidentified Plant Parts]
Same as Bog Lords, don't come here if you're only seeking gold, but it could be a quite profitable spot if the Sporeggar faction become more interesting to level to exalted (at the moment, you only get an alchemy recipe which doesn't seem to have much use)
Good grinding spot too.
Terokkar Forest
Firewing Point
Firewing Bloodwarder, Firewing Defender, Firewing Warlock
[Arcane Tome], [Firewing Signet], [Netherweave Cloth]
This is a good spot of low level monsters if you're looking for arcane tomes and netherweave cloth. You can kill them very fast and you should really look into it if you're a Scryer looking for some easy faction leveling.
Skettis Water Elementals
Skettis Surger
[Mote of Water]
Best Mote of Water farming spot. Don't have much to say about it, just watch for Alluvion here, you don't want to aggro a level 72 elite while you farm, do you ?
Shimmerscale Eels
[Mote of Water] [Mote of Mana]
Great spot for lower levels for farm some [Mote of Water] with a smaller drop chance of [Mote of Mana]. Bout a 20% chance to drop 1-2 motes every time, and they can be easily farmed, or 2-shotted by a lvl 70. One otherr great thing is that these mobs arn't immune to frost, so if you are a frost mage, this is a good spot.
Nagrand
Warmaul Hill
Warmaul Brute, Warmaul Warlock
[Netherweave Cloth], [Obsidian Warbeads]
This is theorically the best way to make money in Burning Crusade. Why ? Because you can use the [Obsidian Warbeads] these monsters drop to level your Consortium faction. The Consortium will mail you a bag of gems at the beginning of each months, its quality depends of your faction with them so you should really consider farming this spot if you're not exalted with the consortium.
It's also a nice way to get Netherweave and a few green items
Northwind and Southwind Cleft
Boulderfist Warrior, Boulderfist Mage
[Netherweave Cloth], [Obsidian Warbeads]
The same as Warmaul Hill, just a little lower level but it's basically the same, just pick whichever spot is free. If you're a warlock or a hunter, you may prefer the Warmaul Hill though, because the Boulderfist Warriors may charge you even if your pet has the aggro, it's no big deal but it gets annoying to get stunned 2 sec everytime you engage a warrior. This can be prevented by staying away of them (which isn't really easy in a cavern)
Halaani Basin
Muck Spawn
[Mote of Water]
Why would you go here when you can farm [Mote of Water] in Skettis ? Easy, these mobs are the only water elementals NOT immune to ice. If you're a frost mage, you want to go here.
Oshugun Earth Elementals
Shattered Rumbler
[Mote of Earth] There is a very large amount of them, probably the best mote of earth farming spot.
Elemental Plateau
Crashing Wave-Spirit, Raging Fire-Soul, Storming Wind-Ripper, Rumbling Earth-Heart
[Mote of Fire], [Mote of Earth], [Mote of Water], [Mote of Air]
Good mix of Elementals here, but it has been nerfed and the respawn isn't as good as it used to be, in my opinion you should just farm here if you're passing by and everything is repoped. Just do a full clean, and leave for another spot
Blade's Edge Mountains
Not much things to do here, most of the flying mount accessible zones have way too strong monsters to be farmed efficiently. There is around 10 possible spawns of Mana Thistle though.
Fel Rager
[Mote of Fire]
Located where the yellow Mana Thistle area on the mid-left side of the map above. Great spot to farm [Mote of Fire] and rarely camped, only bad thing is that there arn't too many of these mobs, so if you are a high DPS class it's basically just a clear it on the way by kind of thing.
Death's Door demons
Deathforge Technician, Deathforge Over-Smith, Death's Might, Death's Watcher, Void Terror
[Mark of Sargeras], [Fel Armament], [Mote of Shadow], [Netherweave Cloth]
The lowest level demon spot you can farm, there are plenty of monsters and you will get all the fel armaments you need.
Searing Elementals- My favortie spot to farm :wink:
Searing Elemental
[Mote of Fire]
The only spot with the Hand of Guldan in Shadowmoon valley where you can farm motes of fire efficiently. Monsters are level 67-68 so it should be easy to kill them if you're level 70.
Netherstorm
Manaforge B'naar, Manaforge Coruu, Manaforge Duro, and Sunfury Hold
Way too many monsters to be listed here, click for a complete list
[Sunfury Signet], [Arcane Tome], [Netherweave Cloth]
Yup, tons of blood elves to slaughter. This is a total of 4 spots to farm your Scryers faction (or items to resell at the AH of course), just pick the one you prefer, they're basically all the same.
Kirin'var Village
Mana Wraith
[Mote of Mana]
So ... Why should you farm motes of mana ? Easy, they're used to make [Primal Might] and people tends to forget them, farming earth/fire/water/air elementals instead because they're the one they're most used to. This is the best spot for farming [Mote of Mana], just a little hard on caster because oen fo the mobs has a spell reflect, adn the other a big mana burn.
Forge Camp: Oblivion and Gehenna
Wrathbringer, Cyber-Rage Forgelord, Gan'arg Mekgineer, Ironspine Forgelord, Wrath Priestess
[Mark of Sargeras], [Fel Armament], [Netherweave Cloth]
Like in most of the Legion spots, monsters are easy to kill, they drop good loots, and the zone is relatively safe so you shouldn't aggro too many things when you don't want to.
Shadowmoon Valley
Eclipse Point
Eclipsion Centurion, Eclipsion Archmage, Eclipsion Bloodwarder
[Sunfury Signet], [Arcane Tome], [Netherweave Cloth]
If you didn't find enough spots in Netherstorm to level your Scryers standing, Eclipse Point is a good place to do it. Be careful though, it could be a little harder than the spots in Netherstorm because of the bloodwarders who will spawn an Eclipsion Hawkstrider when they die. You'll also encounter a few Eclipsion Dragonhawk, they're not hard to fight but won't drop the loots you're looking for
But overall, the spot is quite good.
Legion's Hold- My favorite for Aldor Rep Grind
Wrathwalker, Terrormaster, Mo'arg Weaponsmith, Shadow Council Warlock
[Mark of Sargeras], [Fel Armament], [Mote of Shadow], [Netherweave Cloth]
Legion's Hold is probably the best place to farm your Aldor reputation (or money of course, since all these loots are sellable at the AH). Monsters are easy to kill, and they don't have much special abilities.
If you've got troubles surviving, just don't rush in the middle of the path, and you should be ok.
Be careful of the two elite roamers, even if you could solo them by kiting, you don't want to aggro them while you're fighting, and killing them is pointless to make money.
South and North air elementals
Enraged Air Spirit
[Mote of Air]
These spots aren't really good to farm if you compare them to other spots, but they are the only way to get motes of air efficiently. Depending of the price of [Primal Air] on your server, it could be the best thing to farm.
The south spot is usually a lot more camped than the north one, and it seems that monsters are more spread out. But most of the time you won't get any adds (except Collidus roaming here sometimes)
The north one could be a really good farming spot if it didn't have Scorchshell Pincer everywhere.
Basically, they both have their good and bad points, just pick the one you prefer.
Hand of Guldan Elementals
Enraged Fire Spirit, Enraged Earth Spirit
[Mote of Fire], [Mote of Earth]
Even if Motes of Earth don't sell for a very high price on most servers (you can get them from mining), you can get a decent amount of Motes of Fire here. The zone is quite large so an epic flying mount will probably boost your efficiency a bit.
There yah go, should be about all the worthwhile farming spots from Zangarmarsh on. If you have any good additions just PM me or post here and i will surely add it in. Also, If anyone would like Coords added next to each of the farming areas i can do that pretty quick, just post here.
Hope this help you all
This Again, is not my creation, this belongs to World of Warcraft Exposed.
Best Farming Spot Ever.
This is for you level 70 characters working on getting your tier 4 or 5 dungeon gear who hate farming. There are places to farm that might give you more cash per hour, but they just aren’t as easy.
The mobs are a snap for any build; they drop high value items, and drop limited junk.
The spot is in Netherstorm; at the ruins of Alkron.This works best if you have enchanting and skinning – my two favorite end-game professions.
On my server almost everybody mines, so you end up rolling for all the nodes in instances. Another good end-game gathering skill is herbalism, you hardly ever see anyone doing that, but it seems like only the leatherworkers skin.
But since leatherworking is a lot like tailoring in the fact that it takes a whole lot of mats to make one recipe, the demand for knothide leathers is just as high as for metal bars in most cases.
Especially since the materials are more limited on the ah since most people don’t skin. You can actually make a pretty decent run just cleaning up leftovers in high traffic areas of Nagrand, where nearly everything you kill can be skinned.
There will be times when I can skin 20-40 mobs without ever taking a single swing because there are two or three people working on the mastery quests in the northern part of that zone.
I just run around making free money off their kills But the Alkron ruins are simply the best. In an average hour you can expect to farm something like 130-160 gold worth of items if you have skinning and enchanting.
The mobs there are well spaced, so you almost always get them 1-on-1, and they don’t have any really annoying skills or tons of armor or hit points.
The worst part may be for casters since the artifact seekers will use mana burn on you from time to time as well as spell lock. I will just assume you know how to deal with that.
All the mobs are level 67 or 68 and you can kill more than 100 of them an hour.
This should get you about 6 gold in silver dropped from the doomguards, 80-120 knothide leather scraps, 20-30 knothide leather, 30+ marks of Sargeras, 2 or 3 Fel Armaments, 3-5 vendor trash items worth around 5 gold or so, and the odd green item which you can either sell at ah or disenchant for a guaranteed 6-10 gold if the item doesn’t sell for that much.
Prices for the marks of Sargeras and fel armaments will vary from server to server, but they are used for Aldor rep and Aldor enchants.
A pretty good average for these is around 15 gold for the armaments; and up to 1 gold each for the marks. Add in the profit from the leather and now you’re making some really serious coin for a very minimal amount of work. I go there quite a bit during trash time while waiting for the guild to get together on a dungeon run.
I’ll just fly up there and bust a few heads for 20 minutes or so while everyone else is getting done with their current quests or instances.
I am able to keep about 1,500 gold in the bank all the time doing this just 20 minutes here and there every time I log on. I have never liked to farm for hours at a time, but this would be the perfect place to do it if you are strapped for cash, or don’t mind going in circles for hours. Either way, it’s worth it – and quite possibly the easiest money you will make compared to anyplace else you could possibly go.
--- Herbalism Farming Location --
ZangarMarsh ofcourse, but if your like me w/o an Epic Flier, or to lazy to farm for it.. Ironic huh?
The Quagg Ridge/The Swamping Glenn-
SouthWest corner of ZangarMarsh
And if you cant kill these guys, umm, ride around the places to pick up occasional herbs. Or drop the 50g or w/e respec fee.. go farm for about 1 hour, and you can prob turn a 30g Profit if your lucky. Depending on your class and gear you can make even more.
** Got an Epic Flier? **
Ok, this is just a roation that I found that works quite well. Start near the SouthWest Path of Zangarmarsh near Sporeggar, Follow the Western Coast, then cut over to the right before the alliance town , follow it till your just south of that town. Then go south from that town till your land about quagg ridge, then fly along the MTnridge or in the middle between the Coilfang Resourvoir and the MTn Ridge. Follow that path till you get near Telredor, if your alliance go close around the town, might find a herb spot or two. Horde just steer wide like a northwards loop around it. Then come South through CE town, and towards Terrokar Forest.
The Blue Line is the Above Guide Path line.
The Black Line is a Modified one, usually has alot more RagViel but sometimes has to have you clear mobs.
Image of Path.. Modify as you see fit.

Paladin--
Love PVP as a paladin? Want a good spec, but see so many different specs you don't know what to choose.. Well Here ya go!
Some of you are like.. why not Illumination and such, Well FYI it can be dispelled, and if you pop it to early, people can just CC you and make it useless.. And the little bonus to healing from Holy Guidance to me is not as worth as 10% Stun resist. You can ethier get IMP Concentration or IMP Hammer of Justice.

**RARE PET**
The Tiny Spore Bat Pet- Requires Exalted rep with Sporeggar
First off--
FARM the Bog Lords, Fungeral Giants and what not in Quagg Ridge and The Spawning Glenn till 1 Point shy of honored (It caps there) Once ya hit the cap no more mob Rep Farming, its all turn ins from here on.
Best way to get this is to farm Fertile Spores. From Greater Spore Bats
Drop chance is about 40% and if your skinning, you get bonus loot. Herbalist and Mining don't feel bad niether, because the location i give you has TONES of Nodes near their spawn.
Western Coast of ZangarMarsh, has constant spawns of them, all the way up to Orebore Harborage. Then Fly back down South, or vice versa and just reclear.
Wish I had a Picture.. >.>
-- MACRO's --
Ever heard of mouse over casting? Well heres how..
Im to lazy to go search for the icon so i just type out the macro text to put the correct icon.. you may not want that.. so do as you want.
EXP one.. Casting Greater Heal (Any Rank)
#showicon Greater Heal
#show Greater Heal
/cast [target=mouseover] Greater Heal
This will cast Greater Heal on the target you are MOUSED OVER not who you are targeting... You can replace Greater Heal with ANY spec that requires a target. eg Frost Bolt.. Charge Polymorph.. you name it.
WARRIORS tired of having all those buttons for each and every move? wanna Simplify your button space? Well here ya go..
EXAMPLE *This will cast Charge, if possible. Otherwise itl cast Hamstring.*
#showicon Charge
#show Charge; Hamstring
/cast [nocombat] Charge
/cast Hamstring
Simple eh?
I think you get the hang of it.. you can use almost any combination of moves, with the exception of a few. eg Overpower and Hstrike, for some reason it NEVER works.. Ive tried it many ways.. But if you can.. Congrats!!
There is multitudes of macro's out there, if ya ever have questions, or any wonderings, check the blizzard website, I believe they published Cogwheels Guide to there site. Can't find it at the moment, but its up there.
Heres a link to the Forum Version --
WoW Forums -> Cogwheel's Complete Macro Guide – READ 1ST!
I hope these guides can be of some use to very many people, And I do appologize if any of these things are a repost. I searched for most of the things in my guide and came up with nothing. But then again I may have missed something.
Enjoy!!
