Making money farming 1 thing. : World of Warcraft General Discussions

Alright, what your going to be doing isnt something you should solo- you may need a friend to help you out.
Your going to be killing giants in frostwhisper gorge- winterspring. there are 2 kinds of giants there, one has the word "giant" in its name, those are the main targets you'll need to farm. Your going to farm an item called Recipe: Greater frost protection potion, drops at about 4 percent last i checked- and on my server it sells for about 250g on the AH. This can vary depending on server. I usually go with a rogue, and im a warrior- we get about 2 of these recipes in 3 hours which is rather decent then we both walk away with a healthy amount of money, and the potions sell for about 20g a stack on my server- they are extremely cheap to make, if your wondering where to get the water for the potions- its in searing gorge i beleive, in this cave with a bunch of elites- there is water elementals there that drop them (none elite). Not to mention you can make a bit of coin here also, I made 10g in 3 hours with my pal- which is pretty decent for pocket change. when your in the gorge and youve killed all the giants you can see, check around the rims of the gorge- usually you can find 5 or so hanging around in the mountain area, then go back down and kill the respawns.

I hope this works out for you- again im not sure how much it goes for on other servers, but this is my main income besides playing the AH.

The potions are useful for 1. naxxramas (frost resist is the most important in naxx) 2. pvpers, against mages.
making these recipes- and or potions sell fast to guilds.

EDIT:

also nearby there is an area with a bunch of elite dragonkin- the wyrmkin there drop Recipe: Greater arcane protection potion, which I sold for about 150g to a guild leader who needed it for AQ.

Being a lock this was rather easy for me. I just simply send the blueberry against the giant and let him tank for a while while I dot the sucker to hell. Once the giant is at about 50% though i have to pullthe blueberry off cause the giant hits them pretty hard. the rest is just fear and drain and dot. Didn't know about the greater frost resist pots. Usually just go kill a couple for some decent silver 22-25silver per kill.

yeah, i dont think u will be able to solo them except with a hunter or warlock.

I have only tryed this with a hunter, and u can do it, u will need to do a kiting method to kill them. Its alittle slow but u can do it.

Its generaly more productive in my opinion with yourself- but if your not one of the classes said above, just get a friend or something to go with you.

Its more easy kill to get a Recipe: Greater Nature Protection Potion that is used on ZG, AQ20 and AQ40 aganits the venoms. This recipe is very expensive at Ah (250-500g) and the rate to drop is 1.1% you cant get at Western Plaguelands.

The greater Nature protect pots are pretty easy to get, stay away from the ooze's in the cave, stick with the elementals, they drop the recipe, and I got it tonight it sells for about 70g on my server(Argent Dawn) and took about 15 elemental kills to get.

If I remember right, that's near a cave you got to be for Test of Skulls right? Well at least there are little flying blue dragons there. They drop a BoE hunters quest item which can sell for over 1000g. Hunters can use this sinew, if they want, to get http://www.thottbot.com/?i=37470. Might work with other monsters there to.

Well with my warrior tank (defence ) just has blue armore few purples i can solo them all there not that hard use some bandages and nead food for this maby healing pot now and then. You beable to grind them there long fights
usaly goes like shield blok reveng shield blok slam shielblok concusion blow
hehe its a verre verry long fight you get the idea but in the en you will win. just make sure you kill the heal they some times cast. make a nice stun bandage macro and use it early in the fight that way you can do it again later in the fight if you realy nead it.
