Friday's Farmings, Hump Day Herbing, Mining Mondays. Hmmm. That might work. Good idea? Let me know what you think....Now for the post:
This last week, I was fortunate enough to be asked for a guest posting at Just My Two Copper, and I wrote about a farming spot that I enjoy visiting since Cata. You can view my post here. I had an hour to kill last night, so I hit the area again, chugging a Potion of Treasure Finding before the start of my farm.
The results?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
60 minutes, 3 sec playtime (had to finish off the last mob)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total "Liquid" Gold Looted: 186g 63s 21c
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
Total Armor/Weapon Greys: 18
Scavenged Animal Parts: 7
Ruined Embersilk Scraps: 18
Shimmering Shards: 16
Crackling Crystals: 67
Total Vendor: 96g75s14c
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
12 Greens Vendored: 123g70s34c
Now before you hate on this part, I used the vendor price for the fact that not everyone can D/E, not everyone can wait to sell in the AH. Obviously, if you use either option, your GPH (gold per hour) will go up significantly.

Volatile Fire: 12 @ 25g= 300g

15 Tiny Treasure Chests: They contained:

Embersilk Cloth: 85 @ 4g= 340g
Volatile Earth: 4 @ 18g= 72g
Volatile Life: 9 @ 8g= 72g

Ok. Total numbers on this spot aren't crazy. 1547g for a total. Take out the 150g for the Potion, and you are looking at just shy of 1500g per hour. Keep in mind that these are level 80-83 mobs, and they are quick respawns. Herbing and Mining are alot higher per hour atm, but those that do not have the profs, or enjoy farming mobs, this is a very good location for you. This time, I did not get any great drops (i.e. blues or epix) and that marks the first time I did not get one within the hour (with around 10 times farming this spot). If you are using a rogue, you will gain $$ as well through pickpocketing Flame Scarred Junkboxes as well.
Do you have a favorite spot that you want to share? Are you interested in a guest post on my blog? Shoot me an email anytime: altosgoldishadvice@gmail.com

Alto, my man - You've gotta stop selling yourself short here. Farming is worthless now! I'm lucky to hit 8-10 stacks an hour (too many farmers!) and get anything more than 100g/stack on the AH.
You trounced the GPH on farming ore from my pov.
Thanks for the props Stede. You know me by now, when I find a spot, I let everyone know about it (even if it is a few weeks later...). Try this spot out with your rogue and a potion. Lemme know how it works out for you.
With recouperate (sp) and poisons, my 83 is getting 8Kdps there (with blues and greens). IMO Rogues are "god" farmers for mobs. I didn't tell you yet, but a rogue on my server was /yelling in ORG yesterday about getting the epic dagger from a pickpocket. Needless to say, my jealousy entailed....
