Teldrassil

There are several Gnarlpine furlbog (5-10) camps scattered through Teldrassil. Most of the Gnarlpine camps are in Shadowbreeze Village to the east and in the southwestern quadrant of the zone, such as the Защитник из племени Кривой Сосны and Воин из племени Кривой Сосны. Shadowbreeze Village has a lot of quests, but the camps along the southern wall in particular do not.

The sprites and grells (5-7) in the caves north of Dolanaar are also a good early camp, though not as dense as the Gnarlpine camps.

If you're tired of killing furlbogs, head up to the northwest corner of the zone to hunt Bloodfury harpies (8-10). They are involved in few quests, although they can be annoying for melee as they are densely packed and many are casters.

Darkshore

There are really only two concentrated areas for linen farming in Darkshore. The best area is around Ameth'aran, south of Auberdine, with Highborne ghosts (10-12) and a nearby Blackwood camp (12-14), all within the sweet spot. An alternate spot is up in Bashal'aran, with grell and sprites (10-12), though it's not as prolific. The other large Blackwood camp east of Bashal'aran (as well as the camps to the south) has good spawn, but the mobs there are high enough level that they overlap linen and wool, so drop rates will suffer.

Farming Tips: If you're also a miner, you might want to consider taking the fun-filled, death-defying trip to Loch Modan instead of dealing with Darkshore. Darkshore mining is fine, but involves a lot of hill and cliff climbing. Consider taking the extra trip to Westfall if you're also an herbalist. Either move is recommended if you're serious about cloth farming.

Dun Morogh

Frostmane trolls (7-10) are decent targets. There are two small camps east of Brewnall Village and another larger one southwest. The whelps in the starter area are too low level. Rockjaw Bonesnappers and Ambushers (8-10) east of Gol'bolar Quarry may be attractive due to fewer quests in that area.

Elwynn Forest

Kobolds in Fargodeep Mine and Jangolode Mine (6-8) are a good starting options. The ones in Fargodeep are lower level and won't have a high yield, but you can start sooner. For pure farming, stick to the Riverpaw gnolls (8-10). There are several camps for Riverpaw on the northwest shores of Stonecairn Lake, and many in the southwest corner of the zone, near Hogger. Riverpaw are less likely to be busy as there aren't involved in as many quests, particularly the ones up by Stonecairn Lake.

There are also several Defias bandit camps that work well for cloth farming, but these are often heavily camped. The individual camps are spread out and also have fewer spawn, which makes them less ideal for a farm.

Farming Tips: A good loop starts with the kobolds of Jangolode Mine, west to the camps around Stonecairn, and back again. Don't mess with the murlocs; although humanoids, they rarely if ever drop linen. If you're feeling frisky, you can also hit the Волшебник-плут из Братства Справедливости in the middle of the lake, although if you're high enough level to take them on, it's probably better to move to Westfall.

Loch Modan

Tunnel Rat kobolds and Stonesplinter Troggs will be your key focus in this zone. Tunnel Rats (10-14) are concentrated in three primary camps, both in the northwest part of the zone. Трогг из племени Камнедробов (11-16) primarily occupy the outdoor areas in the southwest, while some of the higher-level troggs such as the Костегрыз из племени Камнедробов (15-16) live either in the caves south of the town of Thelsamar or on the northern island of the Loch. There are many camps of each, mostly in the western half of the zone and on the northern island. Running along the western edge between the top tunnel rat areas in the northwest and the trogg camps to the south makes great linen farming.

The troggs in Ironband's Excavation Site don't drop much linen; they overlap between linen and wool.

Farming Tips: Loch Modan is a far better cloth farm than Dun Morogh. If you're combining cloth farming with mining, Loch Modan's best linen farming spots along the west walls are rich with copper and occasional tin mines.

Westfall

Westfall is a giant cloth farm, so go there as soon as you are able. There are many Defias human (10-17) and Riverpaw gnoll (11-17) and camps through the entire zone. Defias camps can be found primarily along the middle strip of the zone north. The Riverpaw camps follow along the western coast, from the north just as you enter the zone until Moonbrook, and extending across the bottom half of the zone.

The southernmost areas for both Defias and Riverpaw are transitional, where mobs can drop either wool or linen, though not highest yield on either.

Farming Tips: Westfall is one of the richest sources of linen in the game. If you're combining cloth farming with Herbalism, the open areas of Defias and Riverpaw camps in open areas are good herbing spots. Bonus: Травник стаи Речной Лапы in the west coastal camps drop herbs.

Durotar

One of the classic recommendations for cloth farming here is the Kul Tiras castle (5-7) southwest of Razor Hill. While good for low level characters, this tends to be heavily camped and will not yield as much linen as some other camps in Durotar. The Гарпия из стаи Пыльного Ветра (7-8) work, but the terrain isn't easy to move around, with several dead ends and a lot of backtracking. Also, if you don't have an easy way to pull from distance, you will miss many harpies that are too far above you.

The Razormane camps starting near Razormane Hill (6-10) are probably the best for lower-level farming. The camps are numerous and spread out well for easy looping. They're higher level on average than the Kul Tiras soldiers and not as heavily camped.

Mulgore

Around the outer edge of Mulgore sit various camps good for cloth farming. Going clockwise, Palemane gnoll camps (5-8) start south of Bloodhoof Village and move to the east wall. Continuing north on the wall are the Bael'dun dwarves (7-9). From here, either proceed north along the east wall, where the higher-level Windfury harpies (8-10) live north of Thunder Bluff, or go straight east across the zone to pick up the Venture Company (5-10) camps. You can choose to continue south just over the road to the Barrens to the Windfury Wind Witch (8-9) camp, and/or return to the first Palemane camp. Rinse and repeat.

Once you're high enough level to do so, you may wish to move to the harpy camps for targeted farming. Particularly in the north, the harpy camps are less crowded as they are involved in fewer quests.

The Barrens

The Razormane gnoll (10-14) camps northwest of the Crossroads are a good place to start, both for quests and for at-level cloth farming. For access and concentration, it's hard to beat the Southsea pirates (12-14) south of Ratchet leading into the Theramore soldiers (15-16) at the keep. The Witchwing harpies (14-16) of the Dry Hills are also a decent choice, again with a low concentration of non-human mobs once you're inside the harpies' perimeter.

All three farm sites have the same good and bad points. None of these areas has large numbers of nonhuman mobs to get in the way, but they are also heavy quest areas with probable competition. Your choice might depend on daily traffic.

Farming Tips: If you're a skinner and/or herbalist, I strongly recommend going after Kolkar centaurs (12-17) around the Forgotten Pools, Wailing Caverns and Stagnant Oasis, which are crowded in with many skinnable beasts. You can hunt centaurs while also getting herbs and tasty skinnables. As an added bonus, there's deviate fishing.

Also, if you're getting close to 20 and wish to move out of The Barrens, and are still need more linen, the Grimtotem camps in southern Stonetalon Mountains are good higher-level linen farms.

Best Places to Farm Linen Cloth - East Kingdoms Horde

Tirisfal Glades

Truth be told, Tirisfal Glades is one giant cloth farm. People tend to focus on the Scarlet camps with all the humans, such as Solliden Farm (5-7), Crusader Outpost (6-7), and Scarlet Watch Post (7-8), and while these are all great cloth farms, there are larger concentrations of Undead mobs that also drop linen at good rates. The best beginning farm is the Разложившийся труп and Гниющий мертвец (5-7) just west of Brill, near Cold Hearth Manor, with high mob density and quick spawn rates. A higher-level spot is Agamand Mills (7-11), with large numbers of undead mobs such as the Мрачноокий скелет-заклинательDarkeye Bonecaster. The area north of Brill contains many linen-dropping mobs such as Гнолл из стаи Гнилошкуров (6-8). And Balnir Farmstead east of Brill is a higher-level area with Странствующий дух and Гниющий предок (10-11). In this case, you may wish to stay in Tirisfal a little longer to farm the mobs at Balnir, since the cloth pickings in Silverpine Forest aren't quite as good.

Farming Tips: There is one other advantage to the Ravaged Corpse/Rotting Dead camp west of Brill: the little farmhouse near the bridge houses a tailoring trainer. Great one-stop shopping if you're gathering linen to level tailoring.

Silverpine Forest
Lower-level linen farming is a bit slim, due to the small sizes of the camps. There are a small number of Раб Когтя Ворона (11-12) near the Ivar Patch and a larger group of Слуга Когтя Ворона (13-14) east of The Sepulchre. A northern Rot Hide camp (11-13) will serve well for lower-level farming.

At higher levels, the many humanoids around Dalaran such as the Даларанский ученик, Даларанский маг and Даларанский заступник (13-16) will be the best camp for your purposes. Just watch for a few nasty elites wandering around the area, particularly the closer you get to Pyrewood Village.

Ashenvale

Alliance can start with the Dark Strand and Forsaken (18-21) north of Maestra's Post. This will not work for Horde as the mobs will be friendly to them. The naga of Zoram's Strand do not drop cloth

For both factions, there are two major Furlbog camps, the Thistlefurs (23-24) and Foulwealds (23-25}, with camps not far from Ashenvale. There are two good-sized, higher-level demon camps, the Felmusk (25-27) and the Xavien (28-30), near Splintertree Post. The Xavien may drop silk cloth as well.

Horde can also prey on the Laughing Sisters (24-25) of Raynewood Retreat (Laughing Sisters are friendly to Alliance). It combines well with the southern Furlbog camps and does not require crossing past hostile Ashenvale.

Farming Tips: Ashenvale has several locations in the perfect level range for farming wool. The Thistlefur camps are great for lower level ranges; although these are involved in a few quest lines, the camp is so large and spread out you can nearly always find an area to farm that isn't under attack by other players. My personal favorite spot for higher-level farming are the 25-27 satyrs in Night's Run, just east of Raynewood Retreat. Approach this camp from the western road to avoid the crowds of hard-hitting, high-HP bears on the eastern approach. Horde players should also beware of the wandering Странствующий заступник, a level 35 elite that wanders the approach to Night's Run. The Night's Run satyrs are better than those of Xavian, which are higher level and overlap with Silk. The Felmusk satyrs of Night's Run cast Непереносимый смрад, an annoying 6-second silence (casters: bring wands). which is much better than the Bleakheart's ability Проклятие Холодного Сердца, a three-minute curse that casts random chest pains that stuns your character for several seconds. This also can affect hunter and warlock pets. Even druids and mages who can remove this curse may find this more annoying than the short six-second Silence of the lower-level satyrs.

Stonetalon Mountains

While primarily a Horde zone, the Alliance have enough to do here that it's still worth mentioning for both factions.

Venture Company humanoids (18-22) roam are all over the area of Windshear Crag. The large area and population density makes for excellent cloth farming, probably the best in the zone. As a bonus, in the southern part of Windshear Crag is a large tunnel system with Windshear kobolds (20-23), though you may not need to bother if you're getting enough action with the Venture Company.

Once you're in need of higher-level action, move to the Charred Vale to hunt Bloodfury Harpies (23-27). The further south you move in the Vale, the higher level the harpies become.

Grimtotem tauren in the southern part of the zone are too low level for a wool farm, but can be farmed for linen if desired.

Farming Tips: Stonetalon is better suited for the Horde than Ashenvale for a number of reasons, mostly having to do with questing and density of available wool farms at all levels. Horde players lack a good 18-22 wool farm in Ashenvale.

Best Places to Farm Wool Cloth - East Kingdoms

Redridge Mountains

With large camps of gnolls and orcs, Redridge is a great cloth farming zone. Most of the Redridge gnolls (14-17) live in large camps southwest of the lake, while another group of primarily Чернорабочий из стаи Красногорья lives in caves northwest of Lakeshire. Higher-level Гнолл из стаи Темношкуров (22-23) and Громила из стаи Темношкуров (23-24) live in a large area north of the Tower of Ilgalar.

Lower-level Blackrock Grunts (19-20) can be found along the lakeshore path northeast out of Lakeshire, while the highest concentration of Blackrock Orcs (21-24) is in the mountains north of Lakeshire. There are a few other orc camps, most notably around Stonewatch Keep and in the southeast corner of the zone, but these camps contain large numbers of elites and are not recommended farms at level. Farming the elites is inefficient, since they don't drop wool at a higher rate or frequency than the regular orcs.

Whether you choose orcs or gnollls will depend on local traffic, as all these areas tend to be busy for quests. The Shadowhide gnolls in the northeast may be the least busy, but can be inconvenient to reach.

Duskwood

Duskwood is not a good wool farming zone. Many of the good humanoid and undead mobs are high enough level that they split between wool and silk, with low yields on both -- most of the undead in Raven Hill cemetery and the ogres of Vul'Gol Ogre Mound fall into this category. The Nightbane worgen in Duskwood do not drop any cloth (although they are skinnable, a difference in Classic).

There is only one decent camp for farming wool, and that's the Tranquil Gardens Cemetery in the southeastern part of the zone (21-24), most notably the Скелет-воин.

Wetlands

The Wetlands doesn't have a many good wool farm choices, but there's enough if your goal is First Aid rather than Tailoring. Dragonmaw orcs (19-21) will be your early targets, both for the zone and for wool farming. The higher level Dragonmaw in the center-zone camp, such as the Swamprunners, mostly drop silk (occasionally wool) at low yields.

Two camps of Mosshide gnolls will be your farm spots, one along the road in the center of the zone (20-23) and the higher level camp in Mosshide Fen ( 23-25) in the wetlands north of Whelgar's Excavation Site.

Hillsbrad Foothills

The Syndicate of Durnholde Keep (20-22) are in a great level range for solid wool farming, and have good mob density. There's also a small camp on the road to Durnholde Keep in the region of the Eastpoint Tower, so pick those up on your way to the castle.

A little higher level on average, the Hillsbrad Fields in the central-west of the zone are covered with humanoids -- from farmhands to councilmen (22-26), there is both good concentration and a nice level range for a compact wool farm. Not the crop they were hoping to promote, wool is the surprise hot product of the Hillsbrad Fields.

If you have a way to slow runners, make sure you use it in both of these camps. They are densely populated and all the mobs run when low health.

The Dun Garok dwarves are high enough level that they drop low-yield silk, not wool.

Very nice guide!

One tip about wool farming is SW Stockades if you have a high level toon. It is a short dungeon, so you can make it 5 times a hour without much rush in a 50+. Each run you gets around 60-80 Wool Cloth, some Linen and Silk also (around 15-25 of each). And it drops a good quantity of green itens. It is around 450-700 cloth per hour.

Yes, it is an alliance-only spot.

Комментарий от Strovacouth

some aspects of this are straight up wrong, particularly with regards to the "overlap" level range on cloth types, for an example the Ashenvale 25-26 Satyrs drop almost exclusively silk, not wool, as per a test of 50 kills for the horns quest. My yield was 1 stack of silk, which was at that time useless to me, and the wool i needed i got a grand total of 2 pieces.
