#0 - June 9, 2010, 4:21 p.m.
this is what me and my 3 IRL friends are farming and we made over 150k with it.
keep in mind that i made this in horde-vision so consider that, i might forget
it sometimes.
[Helpful items/tools]
-portable mailbox (send the items you want to keep to your bank)
-repair bot (vendor)
-auctioneeraddon (also helps you with auto-vendoring items)
-bank char with lots of bag space
-inactive spare chars (25+)
there are certain spots we go to i will go through them 1 by 1:
__________________________________________________________________
-Azuregos: This is a vanilla dragon located in Azshara. If im correct he has a random
respawn timer of 2-5 days. It is useful to have a low char located at the spot where he
might stand, though he walks around so it will have to be a rather high char.
If you have your char located there you can just log in and look if he spawned yet.
Why is killing this dragon profitable?
its just his loottable:
-2 BOP epics (vendor total around 10g)
-3 Green items (disenchant/auction)
-2 BOE blue items (some go for around 250 like hydralic armor or assassination blade)
-1 crappy pattern
-1 rare pattern (arcane bomb, lionheart helm, lifelike mech. toad, invulnerable mail
etc etc etc)
-1 [colour] sack of gems
-1 BOP quest starting head
-1 sinew (goes for around 10-50g)
-170g cash
tactics:
this boss can be fairly easily solo'd. though for a melee class a dispeller would be
nice because he casts a debuff that gives you a slower attack rate. furthermore
his tactics are nothing to be afraid of.
Time it takes:
-logging in a char to see if it spawns takes a minute, going there yourself takes about 10minutes, but you will have to go there very often (2x a day) and hope he is there. so you spend alot of time checking if he spawned, only 5-10minutes to kill. when im w8ing 10minutes for my BG queue, i dont mind going there to check :)
___________________________________________________________________________
-Nightmare dragons: There are 4 nightmare dragons rather similar to Azuregos, though
the tactics are way way harder. The dragons are located in:
-ashenvale (north east, on top of stairs at 94/37)
-feralas (in the north on top of stairs at 51/11, faster way for horde is to fly to
desolace)
-duskwood (in the middle, entrance at 47/55, hes walking around in front of the stairs)
-hinterlands (in the northeast, on top stairs, 63/25)
most useful to have chars located at their spawnpoints. me and my friends have:
-lvl 1 alliance char at the duskwood dragon
-lvl 56 deathknight at hinterlands
-lvl 29 paladin at ashenvale
we just fly to feralas ourselves to check if one has spawned.
NOTE: only 1 dragon spawns at either of the 4 locations every 2-5 days.
so 1 out of the 4 dragons spawns at 1 of the 4 locations.
the dragon's names are:
-Emeriss
-Taerar
-Ysondre
-Lethon
Loottable:
-similar to Azuregos , though no sinew
Tactics:
They all do a breath which makes the targets in front of the dragon (eventually)
get a 1minute cooldown on all spells. So 1 tank would be nice.
dont stand behind them IMO, and only 1 person in front of him.
1 healer would be nice too, mainly at Emeriss.
Emeriss is the scariest of all, he does a debuff which does i think damage as much as
100% of your HP. so it kills ya.
its easily doable with 1 dps and 1 healer, though it will take forever as the DPS
will get a 1 min CD on all spells and the boss has around 900k HP.
Time it takes:
Checking takes alot of time here too, though we have chars at all their spawn location so thats only 2 minutes of work per day. Going to the location takes about 5-10 minutes and the kill itselfs takes about 10 minutes aswell
_____________________________________________________________________
Now we take a leap to lvl 70 bosses:
-Doomwalker:
this is a fairly easy boss with 1,7mil (or sommin) HP and is located in front of Black temple
in shadowmoon valley - Outland.
you can do this with around 2-3 people with the right setup (hpala warrior does the trick)
DK tanks can about solo it.
respawn time is also a matter of'days
Loottable:
-2x imba lvl 70 epic (go for around 200-400g each on AH)
-500g cash
(total of about 1k gold)
tactics:
-overrun (tank him with your back against the wall)
-stampede (2k dps , ohnoees)
-stacking debuff of armor reduction (you need either a Dk tank that does alot of avoiding
or take a second person that is able to tank a bit for like 20 seconds, think of hpalas and fury
warriors)
Time it takes:
checking 5mins (fly from shatt) , killing about 10 minutes with 2 guys)
____________________________________________________________________
-Doomlord Kazzak
this is a more tricky boss. He is located in hellfire - outland (64/19)
we can do this with 3 people (though if you have a prot pala, it makes it way more simple)
Loottable:
-around thesame as doomwalker
tactics:
-dispellable debuff that makes the target heal Kazzak when damaged (must be dispelled
ASAP, need priest/pala)
-mana drain. This is very trikcy for all mana-users. It drains about half your mana per time
and its not dispellable. At the moment youre out of mana and you still have the debuff you explode
and make all target around you and yourself fly away a great distance. Mana users should
always be located far away from the tank/melee. try to stand on spots where you cant fly away
so far so you dont die from fall damage.
Prot palas with endless Plea ofcourse pwn this tactic :)
time it takes:
checking takes about 5 minutes, go to org portal-->blasted lands-->outland-->fly for 1 min
killing takes about 5-10 minutes
___________________________________________________________________
so far with the world bosses, now for some profitable instances/raids
-BWL:
blackwing lair entrance is located at 30/40 in burning steppes - eastern kingdoms
Im not gonna explain the entire story of how to enter blackwing lair.
im just gonna explain inside tactics and profits.
first boss is easy-peasy, use the orb, killl the eggs , keep adds away
second boss, you will need all the dps you got when youre with 2dps and 1 healer (like us)
he will give you a debuff that makes you die after about 20 seconds but makes all your
casts instant and your damage +200%
if youre with around 3 people you will probably die but kill the boss , just walk back in and go on.
for the next part A ROGUE IS A MUST. without a rogue you will be busy walking forever.
There are traps that can be disarmed, else youre slooooooowed like a mother!@#$!
after this another easy-peasy boss.
now comes the proft: the trash:
this trash can drop elementium ore worth (ranging on servers) 300-800g
so kill all the trash and get about 2-4 ore per run (1k-2k gold)
it is smart to complete BWL for the last boss, he drops 2 BOE blues (can also be orb of deception :))
and a sack of gems and alot of other crap.
note that all the bosses drop 70-200g per boss. this makes anothre 1000-1500g or so
so per run its easy to get 2500-3000gold
in 1 run the trash also dropped a Teebu's blazing longsword, listed as the rarest item in WOW, and you also see a picture of it on the WOW-box. it goes easily for 10k+ but its a world drop from lvl 60s so dont expect anything :). i still have this for sale on emeriss if anyone is interested
time it takes:
a full run without too many wipes and a rogue to disarm the traps then it will take you about 1,5-2hours
and 10min travel time
_______________________________________________________________________
-Molten core
not gonna tell alot about this, because its boring as hell and we hardly ever do it.
Why would you do it?
because of the Sulfuron ingot and fiery core and lava core
the cores go for around 40g and the ingot on my server for around 800.
every boss has a 0,2% chance to drop 2 enchants.
they are called: enchant weapon: spell power
and the other is called: enchant weapon: healing power
they are worth around 2k gold minimum
there is also some trash that can drop Blood of the mountain, which is on my server around 500-700
time it takes:
bit shorter than BWL, same travel time
______________________________________________________________________
-AQ 40
also gonna be short about this.
First boss drops a rare pattern for about 800g, trash drops alot of crap if youre bothered to sell them :)
to do entire run you need alot more guys
time it takes:
full run will take about 2 hours, just the first boss (pretty hard with 4 guys) will take half an hour if you wipe alot like we do. travel time about 10mins
_____________________________________________________________________
-Stratholme
stratholme is a great place for farm gold, just run in , go to the human part, pull as much as you can
without dying. humans have 2x as much chance of dropping pristine blacks (my server 700g) as undead elites. they also drop alot of righteous orbs (50g each). Also a spam of greenies (worth alot when disenchanted because the ench mats from this level are very profitable)
also a spam of set-blue items that go for around 10g each.
very useful to have a mailbox with you if youre engineering.
this is easily soloable
the last boss can also drop a pattern called: flask of distilled wisdom, this is worht around 300g
time 1 run takes:
rushing to the living part and killing everythign there takes about 15minutes.
but you will also have to run back out etc.
travel time is about 5-10minutes (i fly from UC)
______________________________________________________________________
remember:
the auction house is your friend! scan the auction house a few times with auctioneeraddon
and i put easily 200+ items on AH every day in around 10 minutes.
and alot of stuff is worth alot more than you would think, so keeping alot of stuff
