Anyone still doing firelands farming after the nerf to drops? If so, share some info.
Anyone still doing firelands farming after the nerf to drops? If so, share some info.
I made 150k last weekend. It's still viable.
every video I have seen on firelands trash farming shows the person soloing the trash which looks like almost infinite amount of space to kite them. I zoned into a fresh firelands raid myself and the place is packed with mob packs. I mean the ramp you have to go down to get to the ground level has a molten behemoth walking up and down it. you can walk around him but I see no way to get all those mobs chasing you and have the room to kite them.
I think you need at least 1 boss down for the week, leave the instance and reset it. all the trash should respawn, and you just head to the area where the downed boss was killed and kite mobs around that area.
uh...the "first boss" wouldn't open up any trash at all.
Shannox pats around the circle of between the other 4 bosses.
Pretty sure once trash a boss is dead the trash won't despawn until you kill it. And once you kill it, it won't come back again.
Don't quote me on that.
I triple box on Arthas(US-PvP) and Magtheridon(US-PvP)
I also have solo toons on Turalyon(my main raider) and Destromath
If shannox lives... kiting does not.
First I was like "ka-Chingg!" but then suddenly all rogues, moonkins, ele shammies and dks are doing the same on my realm.. Meh. :P Only weapons sell more than 4k..
Kinda stupid to run 10 mages there, when most of the classes can take mobs out solo. I'm no jelly but the prices are so cheap atm that the farming isn't worth much anymore.. qq.
Am I selfish if I secretly hoped trash buff, like adding one mob with aoe heals there, so the cc would still play great role on the farming? :P

Eh I stopped farming after I hit 800k and have spent 100k since. =/
i just started.. I get one or two epics a day. I hope they nerf it so you cant "solo" it.. like make some of the mobs immune or high resistant to snare/slow effects. But it should stay "group" friendly lol ( yes I'm a selfish bastard! )
On my realm ( Zuljin ) the epics range from 6-20k still. The only item in the last few days i sold for less than 10 was the tank ring ( got 6k ) But my mages are still fresh 80s. I got 6 85 mages and 3 have the staff now. need 3 more. by then i should be honored for the belt. And I still need lots of cash... so ill be farming it for awhile. unless someone has a better idea!

Is this place only being farmed with mage teams?
