Death Knight Mats Grindage
I figured that stocking up on some quest turn-ins early was a good idea and got started on the cloth donation mats for the future DK.
Being horde, I thought that reaching the Stockades was more pain that it was worth, but after grinding the furbolgs in Ashenvale for wool for 3 hours, I might reconsider.
For silk, there’s always Scarlet Monastery and although going there as a Ret pallie takes about twice the amount of pulls I’d use with prot spec, only the looting took time. 300 silk cloth can easily be earned by doing lib + 2x armory + cathedral. 1 hour. Painless (except for bag management near the end).
Magewave and Runecloth are on tonight. I think I’ll go grind ZF for the former, and Tyr’s Hand or something similar for the latter. Looks good.
Oh, and if you’re not planning on making a Death Knight or want to skip the cloth turn-in quests, if you need some money and are fed up with doing the same dailies over and over, on my server wool cloth is up to 9g a stack (from 1g50) and silk is already in the 12g range / stack.
Skip ZF. Go to the mine in the north of Blasted Lands. It’s the mageweave utopia. (And, for miners, has the benefits of having plenty of metal lying around).
Thanks for the tip, it worked like a charm, and much faster than it would have in ZF where trash has about twice as many HP (which I should have realized).
For Runecloth I’m going to grind WPL instead of Silithus, more efficient with a pallie
