Drop rate seems less after 2.0.7 patch.

Commentaire de 21579

Farming in Shadowmoon seems like the best idea since every single person who wants motes of air goes to the elemental plateau, Shadowmoon is better and has a larger mob area to sweep. I find they drop just as much or more in Shadowmoon compared to Nagrand

Commentaire de 21579

These mobs are alot weaker than Nagrand ones as well

On the northern side of Shadowmoon Valley (61,21) the Enraged Windspirits are connected to Scorpions that path next to them. This area should be done with a 2-man group.

The only downside to farming most of these, not all of them is that they all have other random mobs spread in between them like in the north along the cliffs and in the south among the crystals. So it is very handy to have your flying mount to steer around the ones you don't want.

I would suggest the ridge north of the Aldor base. It seems to almost never be farmed, and, in my opinion, the mobs have a significantly higher drop rate. I have farmed 7-8 primals in an hour, at times. The other mobs aren't really a problem, and if you do kill them, they drop a gray which vendors well.

Commentaire de Lavernius

I've just started farming Primal Airs off of these mobs recently, and I read in a thread on a different mobs lower than 70 have a lower chance to drop Motes, and may not drop them at all.

Can anyone confirm this?

By far the most efficient way to get motes of air, at least on my server. Farmed 4 easily in about 30 minutes. Also got my 2x cobrascales in 2 kills for my 40 AP 10 crit rating enchant :P

Commentaire de Centa

Was there today killed ~50 mobs without a single mote of air drop, went there later today, killed ~30 mobs with 1 mote of air drop.

Am i just totaly unlucky or did they nerf again?

Commentaire de niallest

Tonight I farmed the northern ones above the Aldor base, and had little trouble. got 4 primals (40 motes) in less than an hour. druid insta-flight came in handy when avoiding the snakes and scorpions up there.

if you are a meele (warr/rogue/palla/enhc sham) try to stna at max meele range (5 yard) and when he does the hurricane thing u run to his back and that way he stand there casting while you can stab him in the back or whack him in his head
also after about 2 hours of grindig these i got nearly 50% (47%) drop on mote of air

Commentaire de GraysonCarlyle

These are in fact infinite spawn due to them being quest mobs. The price on US-Hyjal has dropped off dramatically because when you get 9-10 people farming them all at once, they're respawning on top of you, and we seem to constantly have 9-10 people farming them now. If the price is still high for you, you might want to make a guild project out of it; put people near all the spawn points and go nuts for a couple hours.

Ok i kill about 10 mob then more 1-2 dorp that = 10 % drop rate on (stormrage)

Commentaire de 47633

I would also recommend the northern spot for farming if you are a skinner. The Shadow Serpents in the area have a 10% drop rate for Cobra Scales (same as all other mobs that drop scales).
You may be able to pick a few of these up while you're farming your primals.

It seems as of the new patch killing the air spirits in the SOUTH will only get the quest complted.

Commentaire de 50427

the drop rate of motes for me here is terrible. i got maybe 13 motes in one hour, and i wasnt competing with anybody. even with the high amount of farmers in nagrand, i can at least get 40 motes an hour. just go there, if you dont have a flyer even the wanderers in nagrand i better from my experiences

Commentaire de 95585

this mob doesnt drops 1 gold andf 50 silver like wowhead posted i tested it myself please reply if i am wrong

Commentaire de 47482

Blizzard seems to have jacked up the respawn rate (think ele plateau in the first few weeks of BC) and at the same time, nerfed the drop rate of motes. Now I haven't seen anything posted, but I've seen the crummy drop rate now for myself. The first 100 kills netted my 15 motes. The second hundred kills netted 14 motes. weaksauce....

Commentaire de 105506

I dont know if its only me but i did kill like 30-45 of them at aldor base but no motes when i was in party and when i leaved the group did they drop on like every mob i killed so i dont know if i only had terribly luck or something

Commentaire de Mandalorian

Broke my record here today in the first 17 min. I got 21 motes after 1.5 hours i had 44 motes with like 3 others farming, was truely a great day there for me oh almost forgot 3 Essence of air too. hope you have a great day like mine

Commentaire de beholder87

Farmed the ones north of the aldor flight path for about 6 hours over the course of 2 days to get 20 primals. According to my addon, they have roughly a 50% drop rate for motes, and I ended up getting 2 BoE epics off them to boot. Within the first hour of farming I looted Pants of Living Growth, and while I was in the process of telling my friends, Lola's Eve dropped. I was then lucky enough to get a Girdle of Gale Force from a scorpid a few kills later. I guess it was just my day =P

All in all, I would say the cliffs to the north of the aldor flight path is by far my favorite place to farm primal airs. The entire time I was there farming, I didn't see a single other player. Plus the area has a few adamantite/rich adamantite spawns and great skinning from the snakes also. Prime spot for sure.

Commentaire de dedpool

Drop rate for me on northern ridge is horrible, tried 2 days in a row, and only got about 7 motes in an hours worth of time.

Commentaire de 127688

Tried this today as a 70 shadow priest. Was the only one farming them. Ended up with 43 motes in about an hour. I averaged a mote a minute for the first 20 minutes or so, but they went dry all of a sudden, and I went another 20 minutes without seeing a single mote.

I might be wrong but the snakes, elementals and scorpions seem to share spawn points, so it's worth it to clear the beasts to get more elemental spawns. I got half the shelf full of nothing but elementals one pass, it was beautiful.

Commentaire de Haxxer

Being an dot-class is really great for farming these, dot dot and move on, rinse and repeat.

I'm not saying the other classes will have problems or are less good at farming these, just saying I had fun as well :D

Commentaire de bsmorgan

Either I am extremely unlucky or the drop rate for motes has gone down considerably, 2 motes in 25 kills.

Commentaire de stoneybridge

Just done the northen ridge for about 45 mins, got 60 motes, mobinfo says 46% drop rate which is a bit wrong ofc cos of 2 dropping at once, but its still a good place to farm

Commentaire de 25524

Just had an Essence of Air drop from one of these mobs.

Commentaire de 842888

People opting to farm these for Motes of Air may find the following macro handy:

/tar enraged air
/stopmacro
/tar netherskate
/stopmacro
/cleartarget

I go after the Netherskates as well, as they drop motes of mana and they're *right there*. The macro preferentially targets the elementals, though.

While the improved minimap will show you the position of your target, I find the hud option in the Sexymap addon makes the location of the next nearest one easier to sort out.

Commentaire de 898685

Either I have immense luck, or the drop rate increased slightly. I'm gathering all motes for Primal Might for my Enchanting. killed 4, got 4 motes. Pretty easy.

If your a hunter, make sure your 'track elemental' is on. It helps.

Commentaire de 594361

Just got Charlott's Ivory off one. Should add it to the loot table.

Commentaire de EntroWoW

I must be very lucky, but Enraged Air Spirits in Shadowmoon Valley are by far the best method for farming Motes of Air in my personal experience.

Killing the Spirits in Netherwing Fields, and Netherwing Pass up to the mountains near Eclipse Point, I managed to get 6 Primal Airs within about 30 minutes of farming Mote of Air, and oddly enough, no one else was farming there on my server Bracket (Burning Legion, which is a very populated realm.)

I tried Throne of the Elements in Nagrand, and not only are there less Wind Elementals, but there are also others farming them, along with players ganking you just to get the Mote of Air. You will definitely find a lot more Mote of Airs in Netherwing Pass because of how many there are (There's around 20 that you can kill, and they have a generous Respawn Time as well.)

Commentaire de Arcblade

As of Legion, the best farming route for Granule d'air seems to be in Shadowmoon Valley, farming these Enraged Air Spirits. The area respawns them pretty quickly, and there are enough spawn points that you could probably have two people farming there.

This is in direct contrast to Fend-le-vent tempétueux in Nagrand, where I found the spawn rate so sluggish that even one other person camping them was too many.

I do think the drop rate may have been nerfed a bit, but I still managed the 7 Air primordial I needed for my transmog in less than an hour and a half. Best of luck to you all.
