Follow my instructions completely. Behold Bogpaddle! Here is your natural stopping place at the end of each run. Here you will give yourself 15 or 20 seconds to sell trash to a vendor, but mostly to give nodes a chance to spawn again. From experience, I can tell you that there is such a thing as going too fast, and if you rush through, you increase the amount of times you have to backpedal on the route as things spawn after you've passed.
A few seconds of efficiency gets you more nodes each run, which cuts down on your farming time. Look on your map, specifically at the lower, right-hand corner, where there are some buildings and the mountain range meets the sea.
Do not fly straight there as an arrow would. Instead, flying low to the ground, take the coastal route. You have my permission to bypass the coast of the bay wherein lies the temple. You take this route for two reason, both rares. On the first stretch of coast is some large, spastic emu-looking thing.
On the second stretch of coast is a rare murloc. You'll see him the most. Now you are at the beginning of your route. Follow the mountain range closely. The only times there were not been at least 5 or 6 nodes were on those rare occasions someone with mining got there a few seconds before I did. You cannot trust your mini map on the fly by. It is a quirk of the program that, at least in this cave, the game will not paint nodes to the game world or your mini map until you're pretty much within spitting distance.
Assuming you have no competition, note: There is sometimes a node in the entrance. From the entrance there are three "fingers," one to your left, one more or less in the middle, and one on the right. Go down the left finger first. You may have to run more than halfway down it before the node gets painted in.
Sometimes the middle finger has a node. The right finger always has at least one, usually two. Go down the right finger. The stretch of path that leads up to the boss platform will usually have two, sometimes 3 or 4 nodes. The boss platform sometimes has 1. The hallway to the left of the boss usually has one, sometimes two.
Again, you sometimes have to go down that hallway before the game will paint in the node that's there. Now leave the cave and resume the mountain route. Follow the entire mountain line. There are two places where you'll be crossing a road. Pause at each road for a couple of seconds. Nodes sometimes take a moment to appear in these spots. I have no idea why this is. Once you've reached the roads, that's when you have the chance of seeing more rares, if you feel like taking your eyes off the mini map for a sec.
I usually look around while I'm mining something up. There's a dinosaur, a serpent, the dragonkin in the first cave, and some wasp in one of the swamp-lakes I've only seen once, ever, since DO follow the countours that both lead to caves. Otherwise you'll miss multiple nodes, which also sometimes spawn in the caves. And now you're at Bogpaddle.
Rinse, repeat. Remember that every Thorium node has a chance to give you a crystal. Also remember that you have to mine every node, especially the Truesilver nodes.
Think of every node as a cork in the bottle that's preventing the node you need from spawning. The way the game spawns nodes, if you cherry pick only the big veins, all you end up doing is increasing the time you spend mining by about 90 gazillion percent. There you go. Had to go back to get mats for an alt. For anyone wanting better numbers: each circuit takes about 8 minutes and you'll come across nodes that count up to the low's. Number of crystals per circuit: 3,3,0,1,3,2,0,3,5,1,1,2,1,1,3,1,0,1,1,3,0,2,0,3,3,3,2,1,5,4,1,1,4,4,4,1,2,1,4,3,4,2,2,1,1,3,1,1.
Mevrouwke, I don't know what your concern is here. Yes, on the week I wrote this I did one long-ass jag. Prior to that I did lots and lots of smaller ones when leveling professions. I don't play the AH so I have no need to farm like a bot on a regular basis. Not sure why you needed the scare quotes. Comment by Macmagotty As of 6. Swamp of Sorrows is so far off the beaten path and so inconveniently located that it usually has a low population even with crossrealm , YMMV.
While Winterspring , Un'Goro Crater and Silithus remain the best known zones with a high number of thorium ore nodes, they are made the less desirable because everyone and his brother goes to farm Thorium Ore there. Gone are the halcyon days of easy farming on low population realms.
Crossrealm has delivered an almighty kick to the soft parts of that enterprise. Comment by Indormamoo I must be the unluckiest person in the universe because this didn't drop off the bag for me. Comment by sdfjerryp Adding my own experience. After finally getting both bindings, I decided to go ahead and get enough crystals for both Thunderfury and the Sulfuron Hammer at the same time. I already had two Arcanite Bars left over from Based on the majority of comments here, I chose Sillithus as my farming zone.
I did two farming sessions over two days. As far as I could tell, there wasn't anyone else farming the nodes while I was. I didn't keep track of how many times I circled the zone, but I do know I was averaging about 20 crystals per hour.
Comment by braidlock Have not done Winterspring, but knowing that zone, much harder to route. So basically 1 gem or crystal for every 10 ore.
There have been a number of other miners present, both alliance and horde, traveling around the zone in both directions. If you miss it, I have had nodes dis-apperate while attempting to mine them, or finish mining only to have it state there's nothing there. If you're going to mine specifically for the arcane crystals, or any other gems for that matter, you're best to use a Draenei miner as they are "gem toons". Now I just have to get the right hand piece to finish crafting my legendary Thunderfury sword.
Comment by xScarlife Hello everyone, I have made a really nice guide on how to obtain Arcane Crystals. Click Here! I show you the 3 best mining locations to obtain the Arcane Crystals. You can get Arcane Crystals by mining the Thorium Ore. There are 3 spots where you can farm for those crystals. The first spot is in Winterspring. What you wanna do is fly around clockwise and when you see a Thorium Ore, mine it to obtain the Arcane Crystals. The second spot is in Un'Goro Crater.
The reason I like Un'Goro is because of the layout of zone. It's actually one big loop around the map which makes it very nice to farm there. But please note that you might face some competition. The third spot is in Silithus. Fly clockwise for one hour if you want a decent amount of Arcane Crystals. I hope this has helped!
Comment by mjblink Farming for these and don't want all that Dense Stone? They're worth 5g per stack of to vendor if you can stand to wait until you get to a vendor or use a vendor mount. So why not make some gold off it with one click? Just put the exact name inside the quotation marks. Does smelting level mining classic wow? How high can you level mining by smelting? What level is 3 tick granite? Is Motherload AFK mine? How much faster is 3 tick fishing? Interesting fact:mining brings a lot of gold to your bank itself, but some players used to exploit layering untill 6 September.
When we wrote this guide, we relied on previous vanilla experience for past 4 years. You can mine arcane crystals from rich thorium deposits veins.
It means that your mining skill should be at least. So, first of all, you need to visit mining trainer — you can easily find him in any capital. Hint: you can enchant your mining pick — glowing effect looks cool and unique. You will see the glow when you equip it like a normal weapon. We got information from unofficial source, that mining enchanted with crusader procs on veins — sounds really pointless.
Remember, mining nodes appear only on the side of mountains, cliffs, hills. In conclusion, if you started as an elf and want to mine, you need to sail to Darkshore and move to cliff side. We provide mining guide which allows you to skill up your mining very efficient zones with biggest amount of veins and quick. Just make sure no other miners are in a group. In 3 full days… I have only seen 2 rich thorioum veins.
