Despite the name, these guys are your source of Eternal Fires.

Commento di Lhonora

In comparison to farming anything fire-related, these guys are a breath of fresh air. They do about 150 physical damage on paladin, and range from only about 11500 health to 12600 at most. The only thing that could be considered a nuisance is a random charge they do about 25% of the time.

And if you're lucky enough to catch the cave they're in, (62, 42), by yourself they'll have started repopping by the time you go through.

20-25% drop rate for the Crystalised Fire seems about right.

Also note, they are _NOT_ fire immune.

As a fire destrolock I was relieved to find that I wouldnt have to spam sbolts \o/

Commento di EightBitBus

I spent an hour alone killing these guys in that cave. I averaged 4-6 seconds a kill with no eating or drinking downtime while almost constantly fighting (gotta love ret paladins). I ended up with 103 crystallized fire.

Commento di 128231

These are a good place to farm if no one else is around. Decent droprates and respawn times. The damage from these are spikey (they must "dual wield" since you can get hit for 350ish once and 150ish then next with leather armor). They also attack deceptively fast, so be aware of that before attacking one while low on health. Also most of my attacks as a rogue were towards their top end; an indication that these mobs may have little to no armor.

I also seem to get two crystallized fires more often than I get one, which is also a great sign.

lol grats to whoever kited them out into the sea :P

Commento di 260764

Carefull, these things are almost invisible against the bright snow in the center of the cave just as you enter.

Cleared the cave out three times and ended up with 9 crystallized fires. Drop rate didn't seem to be 25% at all

Commento di war40k

a pure bitch for casters with their charge stun.

and as a fire mage, averaged less than 6 eternals per hour.

Commento di DarkC

Well, I cleared the cave numerous times non-stop, and the % of crystallized fire does not seem to be 25%. I averaged around 10% for a crystallied fire drop.

Commento di Lizzerazu

Farmed these for about 30 minutes. got about 15 crystalized fires in that time. Had the cave to myself, so no competition. had around 25% drop rate.
Not that hard to kill. just be carefull as they are hard to see if they spawn in a corpse.

Commento di 232169

Farmed these for about an hour and ten minutes and managed 10 eternal fires

Commento di Vixxi

If you don't want a seizure from farming these, i advise on higher end computers to put spell effects on low because running around in the cave you see alot of light bursts.

Commento di raito

Farming these things is amazing for a prot paladin. My gear is nothing special at all, heroic epics at best, and almost every attack from the winds are avoided. With Sanctuary on my mana never leaves 90-100% when fighting more than one, making it an amazing spot to farm for Crystallized Fire early in the morning.

Commento di 16721

Also a pretty good farming place for mages.
Just get them from a pretty good distance, and throw a frostfireball at them, it slows their movement speed, so they wont charge you, and after that throw a living bomb, then they are pretty much dead when they get to you.

I was amazed by their respawn time, pretty good.
But be carefull with standing too close to many of them, they hurt really much if they are too many.

Happy hunt :D

Commento di 92045

I great farming place for hunters as well. Great respawn timer regardless of how many people are in the cave. There were 4 people farming and I had the back of the cave to myself and picked up 6 eternals in about 20-30 mins.

There are a few things to note:
1) They aggro from VERY far away, making casting at one hard because of the following ability.
2) Squall: ~550 fire damage charge with a 2 second stun. (A lot of times hitting the person/pet with secondary agro)

As an herbalist I had no problem with my instant heal but my pet would get pounded sometimes by 4 or 5 elementals that had just spawned. There were times where they would use Squall to charge me as secondary agro and when they got into melee range the agro coefficient would change so I was primary. A small hindrance for a great farming spot.

Commento di imogul

Horrible farming spot for casters because of the stun. The drop rate isn't great either. I got twice as many crystallized fires in Wintergrasp in the same span of time. And that was when we didn't control it, AND I was completing with a lock for them.

Commento di 265573

I farmed these for about 10-15 minutes and walked out with the two Eternal Fires that I needed for Titansteel Bars.

80 Protection Warrior

Commento di 97618

droprate is decent, but they are horrible to farm. No other eternal is near as hard to farm as fire. Go to the lake southeast near dun niffelem to farm easier mobs. Drop rate isn't good like wailing winds though.

These things hit WAY too hard for a destro lock and they stun all day long. Saw a demo lock doing ok with SL and Felguard. But imp spec just can't cut it.

Commento di 258932

Ok first off to the guy who said using frostfire bolt will stop them from charging, that's not charge, these guys will charge regardless.

I have to say these guys are the bitchiest non elite mobs to kill. Not only do they charge and stun you, they hit hard, AND they are almost invisible! You'll be walking in and accidently aggro like 5.

Commento di 260451

Other than Wintergrasp, this is a great farming spot for crystallized fire. Droprate is just like the seething revenant: 25% average.

Don't believe the '10 eternal fires an hour' crap though. An hour of grinding or so yield 4-6 eternal fires depending on your luck.

They charge, but not always and hit at fast speed (but you do not see the animation). They have low armor as well.

When you have cleared the cave, the first ones will have respawned again, so it's non-stop grinding.
Beware if you're a caster and get sandwitched by several together. The stun and their fast attacks may bring you to low health fast.

Commento di 54490

These mobs are exceptionally easy to farm with a defcapped Protection Warrior. Somehow all normal attacks fall off the attacktable and you only get little damage while stunned, enough to fill up with Enraged Regeneration every 3 minutes. You basically run through the whole cave thunderclapping your butt off, then let them hit on your shield killing themselves, whilst watching a blue blurr in your scrolling combat text consisting of DODGE, BLOCK and PARRY.

Commento di 257612

This is a great place to farm Eternal Fires. as a prot pally this was cake to farm. All i did was use blessing of sanctuary and rounded them up. these guys barely hit me at all and because of how frequently they attacked me with BoS on i never went oom. and the crystals these guys drop, the hoary crystals, are pretty good for money as well since they sell for a couple of G per stack. and with the spawn rate on these things i was never standing still for long.

Commento di 266774

I have one piece of advice for everyone who decides to farm these...

Bite your lip, turn up the music and think of a happy place.

Commento di Haxxer

I farmed for a good hour, I got eight green items and eight Eternal fires. Good spot in my opinion.

Commento di seancwatson

Easily the best place to farm eternal fires. No one on my server has discovered this little beauty yet. The stun is a tad bit annoying, but other then that easy to farm. Very fast respawn timer, so no downtime.

Commento di xevbe

These guys are not immune to fire spells.

Commento di 106340

The stun is really annoying for a caster i found. loved the respawn rate, and it doesnt seem to be too camped by farmers.

Commento di 270113

as a blood DK this is sooo easy, i farm these for my mage scince hes a miner/tailor and rely heavily on Eternal Fires for both Titansteel and random tailoring. For a DK this is a brilliant place to farm

Commento di Orden

Unlike the Seething Renevants, these mobs are quite unknown which alone makes them very good to farm... Casters will definitively find themselves having to stop more than melee and especially tanks due to Dual-Wielding mobs with Charge, but even then compared to the Seething Renevants I'd say it beats it simply cause the other spots are to farmed.

Commento di 1633

Tried farming there today. Another hunter and I were both working the cave. Drop rate was maaaaybe 10%, if not less. I think this may have been nerfed with 3.0.8. Anyone confirm?

Commento di takethislife

Farming the cave as hunter :
Step 1 : Bring lots of ammo, and i mean LOTS of it
Step 2: put pet on Aggressive
Step 3: Put on Freedom Call - Warriors of Light on a lope
Step 4: Kill and loot the mobs
Step 5: sell eternals on AH, Katsching Profit!

Commento di 314542

Depending on your display it can be hard to see these guys. I found it useful to turn on enemy name plates, made things much easier for me.
On my mage I managed to get six eternals in about an hour, though the stuns were sort of annoying.

Commento di 239616

Confirmed the drop rate on crystallized fire from the wailing winds seems to have been lowered considerably, i just spent an hour clearing the cave several times over and had a grand total of two fires drop

Commento di 340883

----->Summary<-----

15mins--->2 eternal 1 crystal

Still very good drop rate

Good spawn Time

They are the only mobs in the cave (Like 10 or more of them)

Not immune to Fire Dmg, Snared, Slowed or Disorient Effects.

Commento di Evilzlo

I'm not sure if this thing got nerfed or something since today was the first time i went there. After about ~40 minutes of farming i had vendortrash for about 60g and had 8 eternal fires and 3 crystalized fires in my inventory, that means about 12 eternals per hour, which is pretty sweet. But still, I'm sure I could do better, since i was pvpspecced and I'm not really a farmer.

Anyways, this is coming from a ret pally, decent-geared. Had absolutely no downtime. Tho still went afk for a little a couple of times.
Also, want to note that my first cave clear was pretty disappointing too - seemed like a bad place. But you can see the results by yourself.

Commento di dadadumdums

after the patch drop rate is awful, my farm spot broken

Commento di 373858

Just started killing these as a rogue, its so quick and easy. Got 2 eternal fire in the space of 10 mins.

Commento di Valdaimon

The actual location to the entrance of the cave is 62.51 41.58. I have not farmed these yet but I post an update when I do. =)

Commento di mariscos

Farmed these for awhile today on a H-A-T spec rogue. These mobs suck, pretty much, and the drop rate was at or below 10% for me. It seemed the ones at the back of the cave had a slightly better rate than the ones in the front. I did have to stop and eat or bandage pretty frequently. These things are a lot tougher than other elementals at their level. Next time I need to farm fires I will either use my paladin or just get them at the AH.

Commento di Thaih

I found these guys to be not only extremely easy to kill, but they dropped alot. It seemed to not drop one for the first 20 or so kills, but then it suddenly dropped a whole lot more, so don't be discouraged if you don't get them at first, you may just get unlucky.

Commento di 365208

Wow, I discovered this gem of an area after fighting with a DK, Hunter, Lock and Mage for Revenants.. I was soon figuring there MUST be a place other than Wintergrasp and the Revenants area to farm Eternal fires in Northrend.

The drop rate, it seems, is much better, and there's almost never anyone here.. no bots! Thank god! Now to make those meta gems... :)

Commento di 365208

I've farmed these guys twice for fire for Earthsiege Diamonds. Both times I have gotten a blue Design worth 500-700g (which was promptly given to my boyfriend who JC's)

Love these guys. Highly recommended!

Commento di 72811

well idk what your all talking about there aint no wailing winds in that cave, just all scion of storm that drop Elemental AIR not FIRE!

Commento di 481387

i found a signet of edward the odd from these, tho i can´t see it in the item list

Commento di 103679

The drop rate seems pretty good still. In 1 Hour of farming I got 13 Eternals. Along with like 10 greens / greys and the Horary Crystals.

Commento di 160546

i love you jenny.

I'm amazed that nobody mentioned these are INSTANT SPAWNS. I'm sitting here farming them and someone on the opposite faction is running through the whole cave like they're on a spawn timer.

Here's a tip:
There are 4 of them up at any given time. If one dies, another one instantly spawns in its place, out of one of the swirling voids. The quicker you kill them, the more eternal fires you get per hour. If someone else is killing them quickly in one half of the cave, it's better for you to stay in the other half until it is cleared!

And, don't be disheartened if you aren't alone in the cave. If you stick to one half, and the other guy sticks to one half, you should be getting more fires per hour because you spend less time running to the other half.

Commento di 160546

"i love you jenny"
I don't know why that's there, I never typed it in.

Oh and also I've gone through my comments and I found a bunch of comments I don't remember writing. Changing pass now.

Commento di abluecardigan

This cave is without a doubt the best place I've ever farmed.

Commento di Victarious

It could be very bad luck, but I just killed about 30 of these guys and got no Crystallized Fire to drop. Could be a nerf or a bug.

Commento di 495442

as of yesterday i was averageing 100 an hour here.. now after patch.. it seems respawn rate is low. very low. i waited 5 minutes and still no respawn. can someone confirm. or possibly it was new patch with glitch for my relm.

Commento di hispanoloco

This place was my favorite place for farm Crystallized Fire because no one else was ever there on my server. But since the last patch, it is very hard to even get any. I guess I need to discover a new way to make gold....

Commento di Lindenkron

I can confirm this is no longer worth farming for.

I just cleared the cave 2 times, got 1 crystallized fire. Respawn timer seems fine, but the drop chance is... Non-existing one could call it.

Commento di Allakhazam

is this thing a rarespawn?

Commento di Allakhazam

This map is wrong - check Thottbot

Commento di Samsam

They must have nerfed the drops, this is an absolutely terrible farm place in retail WOTLK. Ive killed about 100 of these, only got 2 crystals. Better off killing the elementals near the forge.. they have like a 50% drop chance, compared to 1% here. Its not 14%, its like 1%. Plus, they do not seem to drop the ulduar token.

Commento di Kactus04

They love to evade bug, leave, and charge you again. on repeat.
