WoW Forever Farming: Where to Farm Every Material

Stacks of 20Beta data

Ores, hides, most meats, the elementals, essences and spider silks stack to 20 now, twice the Classic stack. Your bags hold twice as much farm.

New Scarce materialsBeta data

Gathering gives rare extras: Pyrite, Bauxite and Pitchblende from mining, Frilled Lichen, Rosecap, Stranglevine and herb seeds from herbs, Pristine Leather, Hide and Scale from skinning. They go into the new dyes, Sulfuric Acid, Sandpaper and over a hundred new recipes.

Camp objects for gatherersBeta data

At skill 140 a miner builds a Rock Garden that spawns a common vein at the camp over time, and a herbalist builds a Greenhouse that grows herbs from seeds. Place them whenever you rest.

Healing potions moved to First AidBeta data

First Aid now brews the six healing potions. Everyone can learn it, so Peacebloom, Briarthorn, Bruiseweed, Liferoot, Sungrass and Golden Sansam sell to far more players.

A free gathering manualBeta data

An early quest around level 3 gives you a free Mining, Herbalism or Skinning manual, and new trainers stand in the starting areas. Full trainers also wait on Zephras Isle and in Powderfuse Port.

Find Fish and fish vendorsBeta data

Fishers get Find Fish, which shows pools on the minimap. Fishing suppliers now sell some raw fish in small stocks, so cheap low level fish will not be rare.

Tauren Cultivation reworkedConfirmed

Tauren can Cultivate a herb once for a second harvest. Since September 24 your level must be at least the herb skill divided by 5.

Legacy for gatherersConfirmed

Each profession pays a Legacy Point at 150, 225 and 300. The Bountiful Harvest perk adds 20 percent Scarce materials per rank, twice as many at rank 5.

Nodes are sharedBeta

Beta players report that a vein or herb is gone after one to four gatherers, whoever gets there first. When a loop comes up empty, change zone instead of running it again.

New endgame materialsBeta data

Marefoil, Demonsage, Death Lotus, Heavy Thorium Ore, Fel Crystal and Fel Leather are in the game files without a known source yet. A new glove enchant finds Death Lotus in Mount Hyjal, so expect herbs there. We add their spots when they show up.
