As the item prices continue to rise in WoW Classic Season of Discovery Phase 2, I can't wait to share a few more of my gold farming routes with you. I've been maintaining this routine twice a week, especially now that they require double the potions. You'll need Free Action Potion, Nature Protection Potion, and any other class-specific potions.
This gold farming relies heavily on agility and strength, 2 key attributes that have a significant impact on how much gold is generated.
Location
Our current location is Witch Hill, situated along the eastern shore of Dustwallow Marsh. We are going to traverse up and down this coastline, where you'll notice icons indicating Floating Wreckage and fish. This is our primary focus area, where we'll be farming Mudrock Spikeshells and Mudrock Tortoises. We will devote about 1 hour to this task.
Having spent approximately an hour and 10 minutes farming, we find ourselves in Ratchet with our bags full. Interestingly, despite not typically finding enjoyment in farming activities, I'm quite fond of this particular spot. It's remarkably lucrative and holds immense potential.
The Iron Bound Trunks we obtained from the wreckage, providing us with the opportunity to fish. Additionally, we can cast our lines for Oily Blackmouth and Firefin Snapper. However, if you wish, you can also commence your search for Turtle Scales.
Some of boxes and trunks present the opportunity to yield a variety of items. They may drop valuable blue and green items, as well as trade items such as bolts of Mageweave, Potions, and other goods. Therefore, if you manage to locate these specific spots that yield Floating Wreckage, you can fish there to acquire these trunks.
Defeat The Tortoises
Moreover, you may also obtain random drops by defeating the Tortoises in the area. From these encounters, you may obtain 2 items: the Warden’s Cloak and Tigerbane. While the Warden’s Cloak, a Level 34 item, may not be extraordinary, it offers 4 strength, 5 stamina, and 4 spirit, making it a decent find. On the other hand, Tigerbane boasts 18 attack power and the ability to combat beasts, making it a noteworthy discovery.
Surprisingly, the Speckled Shell Fragments sell for 45 silver per 5 stacks. With 5 stacks in your possession, each fetching nearly half a gold, they're definitely worth your time. So, make sure to pick these up when you defeat the Tortoises. We'll be selling those for a tidy profit.
You can manage to gather some Turtle Meat. If you're interested, it can be quite lucrative. Turtle Meat can be used to craft Turtle Bisque, Soothing Turtle Bisque, and likely another recipe. It's possible that it's a component in another dish, further enhancing its value.
In addition to these valuable drops, I acquired plenty of leather, including Heavy Leather, Thick Leather, and Heavy Hide. The greys alone, starting with a total of 32, will sell for about 2 WOW SOD Gold. This highlights the profitability of collecting and selling these resources obtained from tortoise farming, particularly the sought-after speckled Tortoise Shells.
Selling Tips
Let's take a look of the selling. First, we'll part ways with Tigerbane since its value isn't significant at the moment. However, it still fetches a decent amount, adding to our overall earnings. Conversely, I'll hold onto this item to send it to my enchanter for disenchantment, which can yield valuable materials.
During our farming session, collect as much Turtle Scales as you can. These are essential components for crafting green Turtle Scale or Turtle Scale Bracers, which are highly sought after for supply boxes. Currently, these Turtle Scales are valued at 3.21 gold per stack.
You have the option to sell them or if you possess Leatherworking skills, craft and sell the bracers for potentially even higher profits. While the exact selling price of the bracers is uncertain, they are estimated to fetch around 4 to 5 gold each, providing a lucrative return on investment.
Overall, it's definitely worth your time. Whether you're into farming or not, if you're doing it to maintain your gear or your raiding life, this is definitely a good spot to visit.
