** Credit to this spot goes to my good friend Razz who helped me farm Eternal Fires to fund my Merlin’s Robe.
While not intending on making this a ” where to farm” blog I thought I would post where a good spot to farm Eternal Fires and Crystallized Fires are because they are worth about 30 gold each on my server, and there is also gold to be made from the greys, and greens that drop. The mobs are called Wailing Winds and are found in a cave at the north east of Storm Peaks. They have a bout a 26% drop rate of Crystallized fire, and I find if I stand right near the entrance I can pull the Wailing winds pretty constantly as they spawn. The cave can support 2 people farming it at a time as long as one stays deep in the cave, and the other near the entrance.
They do stun for 2 secs, so as a dotting and shielding class I was fine, they are apparently not fire immune, and they do have a very quick reaction time when the respawn. It can get quite overwhelming sometimes when they suddenly appear on top of you, and stun you.
And yes thats me Farming in my PVP gear, I am now on a Pvp realm, and If Im going to get ganked, I would rather put up a fight…
I believe you mean NE Storm Peaks, not Icecrown. At least that’s what I infer from your picture.
I have never gone to that part of Storm Peaks before, I was always farming my Fires at the forge place East of Dun Niffelem, with about 5 other people at the same time. Maybe this place will not be quite so busy, sounds like drop rate is great.
Thanks for the tip.
@G-rebel – Yes you are right…. I am lame at place names even when they are on the map.. I shall correct it
Judging by the map, it sounds like the cave where I used to farm crystallized air. Did they change the mobs at some point? Or is it phased with one phse having air mobs and another with fire? I’m alliance by the way, with all SP quests complete.
I’ll have to take a look again tonight.
Bah, nevermind me, this is the cave nextdoor apparently!
