Comment by Haqin

Seems these don't have a 100% drop chance, so don't expect one from every 'worthwhile' kill you make.

Comment by silkfire

As of February 9, they've hotfixed it so that you no longer can get Charms while in a vehicle. So the Reclamation, Battle before the Citadel, nor the Dwarfageddon strategies no longer work.

Comment by 435907

I am currently sitting in a Heroic CoS by myself, the zombies do NOT drop charms.

So take that off your lists too.

Comment by 230127

There are reports on the WOW forums that they are now randomly distributed while in a group, instead of going to the player who dealt the killing blow. Any healers or tanks able to confirm this?

Comment by 450224

I have noticed they do not drop off of any "Non-Lootable" mobs since maintinance fix went through. Tried several locations where the other conditions were met. So the avalance no longer drops them either. This is probably how they fixed the vehicle collection method since I was using the "shoot them up" quest to farm mine.

AoE Grind Converted Hero on the Icecrown Glacier floor....

your welcome

Comment by 530811

A good grinding spot for me was the catwalks to the north of ICC. I'm a prot warrior with a block rating set; assuming mobs don't have any spell damage. I can last forever against a huge group of them. I just gathered a bunch of them up and thunderclap/Shockwave/cleave em down.

Be careful. You have to make sure you get aggro on the mobs, as they're attacking each other. They might not follow you :(

Reminds me of farming on the Black Temple Terrace :D

Comment by 386896

yea...about the converted hero droprate.....terrible for me....i kill a group ata time on my disc priest, and im lucky to get one, whereas when i SW:pain pull 10-12 of the seasonal quest mobs below dalaran, i get probably around 4-5, and theyre lower level. maybe im just unlucky with whatthe majority of what people go with and am more lucky when i do my own thing. idk. also, converted heroes are more spread out, whereas the ones below dala are hella close together

Comment by carranza

At the risk of redundancy, I must confirm that the tokens do not drop off of the Zombies in reg COS.

Comment by Dungrath

From the way they designed the event, I'd say they didn't intended for anyone to grind for the Charms. Considering that all you have to do to get them to drop is keep the Lovely Charm Collector's Kit in your bags, and kill "worthwhile" enemies, I think they intended for you to pick up the kit and go about your usual activities. They specifically excluded grey enemies because they didn't want the event to be a mindless, effortless, boring grind. It's just an extra bonus to your regular loot, not a separate activity to steal time away from whatever you normally do.

The drop rate, according to the triggering aura, is about 1 out of 3 kills. It could be a little higher, and then maybe people wouldn't worry so much about getting it done. Still, it really shouldn't take all that long, and doesn't take time away from anything else, unlike most of their other holiday activities.

Comment by 238445

so, after being able to get those from every mob that was in lvl range of expirience gains blizz decided to give those only for killing event mobs that spawn in 1 location. How brilliant! now we have a grindfest nightmare just like in F2P korean MMO's where 100 players try to farm one spot.
Great Job Blizz.

Comment by 247390

The Skeletal Runesmiths will once again be the target for grinders. I tested them today (11/02/2010) and they drop Lovely Charms. I managed to get around 5-6 charms per run and they respawn ridiculosly fast.

Comment by naano

An excellent place to farm charms is in the Fleshwerks in Icecrown. There's a section with a group of mobs called either Risen Soldiers or Summoned Soldiers. These mobs only have about 4k health or less, are easily grouped up and AOE'd, and respawn very rapidly. I got all of my charm bracelets in a little under an hour as a disc priest running around and holy novaing and mind searing, so I imagine it would be even faster as actual DPS. On my server it seems like no one has discovered this place yet, as I didn't encounter a single person while farming. Good luck!

Comment by Berrenger

No mate, they only stack to 40.

Comment by 537321

there is another way to get more lovely charms i was on my alt and doing brd and that room with those non elite ones....ones before final boss if ur 50-60 ask a 80 friend to run ya through there and get some lovely charms....worked for me :)

Comment by 544521

I found a very quick way to farm these little beauties. Doing the below method got me 120 in about 20 minutes - enough for the 12 bracer achievement.

Go to the Icecrown zone in Northrend and head over to Deathspeaker's Watch - just west of the Argent Tournament Grounds.
Locate a mob called Deathspeaker Kharos (http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=34808) He is at the eastern edge of the Deathspeaker's Watch area, channeling energy from an orb in the sky.
Aggro Kharos, but DO NOT kill him. He will continually summon a mob with 101 health called a Death Shade (http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=35255).
Kill these mobs as he spawns them and they will have about a 1 in 3 chance of dropping a Lovely Charm.

Notes: He will alternate between casting spells and summoning the Shade mobs. Sometimes he will summon 5 or 6 in quick succession. Just move around a whack-a-mole the mobs as they pop and you will rake in the Lovely Charms! Like I said, I got 120 of these in about 20 minutes.

Oh, and because this is a high traffic farming area, you may want to drag Kharos south a bit towards the small hills. If you stay there, you should be out of the way enough to avoid ganking and/or harassment.

Hope this helps!

Comment by dozzer

Just so U know and dont waste time on it:
I thought the quest Thieving Little Pluckers would be awsome to farm these but they dont drop em :(

Edit: Same with Fire From the Sky

Comment by 437407

For level 85's - as far as I can tell... so far today - the best place to farm these is right through the portal to Mount Hyjal. The lvl 78/80 Scalding Rock Elemental that continuously respawn are super easy to kill and the charms still auto-spawn in your bags so you don't have to waste time looting. Took me less than 15 minutes to farm 30 charms on these mobs just now.

Oh and I checked the Dalaran mobs from last year they're all max lvl 75 and so do not award exp/honor so they will not award you a charm.

Comment by kakogijon

Today begun the event and I've started to farm lovely charms in tol barad. I'm not sure but I think Crazed Soldier at Farson Hold has a high drop. Anyone can confirm? I'd get 10 charms less a minute

Comment by Saskiel

In Cata...

I'm farming them in twilight higlands.. And I guess it's perfect place for any range dps with dots. I'm druid and I just go to Verrall River (where you can complete those daily Qs - killing opposite fraction guards) and dot like 4-5 mobs and then just wrath/starfire them - mostly NPC will hold the agrro until 30% and then you'll kill the mob very easily. Just an advice - don't do it during day when there are many people around you trying to do their Qs.. They can get pretty p*ssed xD

And also don't do the same mistake as I did - you DON'T LOOT this item.. you create it sometimes as you kill a mob.. It'll be in your bag but you won't see it in loot window (uhm... I mean like when you kill a mob and you open it xD dunno how to say it)

hope it will be at least bit helpful for some of you and happy hunting.... and also.. don't forget hearts <3 <3 <3 ^^

Comment by Anachon

these charms are stil farmable with lvl80 green mobs in icecrown or stormpeaks. i went to the gate to the east of mord'rethar where the mobs for the exploding abomination quest are found. as a multilate rogue it was really easy, just put your poisions on and bomb right through.
and remember: you don't have to loot the mobs, the charms will appear in your inventory automatically ;)

Comment by Rumpelstiltz

Second to none, the best place to farm these, seems to be at the Savage Ledge in Icecrown killing Mjordin Combatant. Cord. 37,24.

Still valid in Cataclysm.

Comment by 780575

Stone Bats in Deepholm seem to drop em quite alot. Happy farming ;)

Comment by 205445

The Fractured Front area in Deepholm (in between the Needlerock Slag and Stonehearth - upper levels of rocks) is a perfect area to farm these items. The amount of Stone Troggs up there is insane, and with my death knight I just Howling Blast a group, loot, move onto the next - simple enough case of rinse and repeat. You could end up with hundreds up there if you're up there long enough.

I was only up there a matter of 20 mins and already I had around 89 of these. Add a Potion of Treasure Finding to this... well - the possibilities are endless.

Comment by KillerLoop

Is there anything else beside having that collector kit in the bags? I killed lots of trogs at fractured front and didn't get one...

Comment by Athene

The Fleshworks in Icecrown works brilliant, also at lvl85.
As a disc priest I just ran through the area with shield and holy nova, and the charms were flowing.

Comment by pancakelizard

the item doesn't actually loot.
it's created whenever the mob dies.

Comment by scatlynn

nalaallii
gilnais

okk just tryed reg old strathome and the begining mobs nolonger give them only lootable mobs seam to give them now that are green and above, so if you can 1 shot them thay dont give them but if your able to solo northrend dungens it seams to be the best place for them that iv found thay drop regulerly from the mobs your able to loot but dont need to litraly loot but bout to try H for them and see what that dose ill edit as soon as i find it and your pet dose efeckt the looting of theas still and iv found you have to be bearly in range to get theas so 5 meaters as in game space being a hunter was having a little bit of a prablom

edit ok dungens dont give too meny and takes too long to solo went to icecrown started grinding out in icecrown glasher with the groops of mobs ez kills and you get 3-4 charms per groop varry good place to be

Comment by Jackel4e

I find These guys seem to be fairly easy to farm Converted Hero

Comment by 776275

any idea wheres a good place to farm these in cata content besides heroics and dungeons?

Comment by DawnArchitect

I found that there are around 15 easily AOE-able level 80 mobs around each Rider in Icecrown (Baelok, Rokir and Sapph) with a relatively fast respawn timer (30s - 1 min), and Riders themselves are weaklings for level 85 character. I also think, that zombies from Rokir's ability generate charms too, but this claim needs confirmation.

Happy farming!:)

Comment by 780686

Any tips on where a 53ish level Mage can farm for the charms?

Comment by 418709

Many of the viable spots in Icecrown still work in cata. The Onslaught Harbor chapel, for example, can yield up to twenty in a matter of seconds depending on your luck and ability to aoe.

Comment by Molmodar

Halls of Lighting - The Iron crucible (map) and farm Slag
15 elems, respawn timer 10-15s

Comment by 385908

Although may not be the best solution to get the most charms in least time, I find that for those seeking the one with the least effort killing Obsidian Whelps maybe suitable. It's a level 84, with 19.3k hp, which for a level 85 should be a hit or two. The drop/receive rate is somewhat minuscule, but as I mentioned it's certainly effortless. Whelps are found inside a cave in the southern Twilight Highlands. Good luck.

Comment by 780742

i just killed 100 crown sprayer and got 42 lovely charm, 42% drop rate but u dont have to loot to get one.

Comment by 207695

Another nice place to farm the charms is in Icecrown: Malykriss (58.7, 75.1). Kill the runesmiths around this area. They spawn every 30 secs or so. Plus if you loot them they only drop cash.

Comment by 751936

I think there is some kind of cooldown in place. It seems that every pull (isolated combat) seems to net a maximum of 4 Lucky Charms. I (Protection Paladin) grouped up with a Healer (Shaman) and made huge pulls (20 to 40 mobs at once) of but never got more than four of them. Smaller Pulls give about the same amount as huge ones in average.

It could also be possible that the spell has a cooldown (Probably 40 - 60 Seconds) and can only *used* 4 times while the cooldown is running.

So I suggest sticking to Stone Bats for farming as they mostly give 4 Charms at once for one person.

Comment by Souzan

A great place is the obsidian Forest in TW, it drops like every other kill :D

Comment by 418716

Best way to get these: Stone Bat
AoE these, easiest possible way to farm these charms.

Comment by mmahatama

best place for me was onslaught habour got over 50 of these in 10 mins easily big pulls and aoe better if your frost mage at 85

Comment by 780961

Another great place to farm charms is the converted heroes in icecrown. You can either kill them individually or in pulls of 7-9. I was getting 4-5 charms per pull. I'm an 85 arcane mage and had no problems killing these guys. And their spawn rate is great as well.

*Edit* After about 2 hous in Icecrown I decided to try Halls of Lightning and the Slags. Lots of fun, spawns mega quick and great drop rate on the charms. I def recommend HoL if you can solo it. If you can't, I'd say stay with the converted heroes

Comment by kinigit

Hunter pet killing blows can also trigger a "lovely charm".

I have been picking up tons of these soloing Wrath reg dungeons for the lunar festival dungeon elders in Northrend.

I am sure while doing so you will stumble across a few very lucrative spots.

Comment by 767351

Coords for this area of Risen Soldiers are 37.8 70.8 very fast respawn time

Comment by 781054

The best spot I have found yet is in Icecrown.

Kill Converted Heroes : Converted Hero

They have a pretty high drop rate , like 60-75%.

Can get 150 + in 15 minutes almost..

Comment by cholland

Farm these in Halls of Lightning killing Slags.. Bit low drop rate, but they die fast ;)

edit.
never mind... Average drop rate (40%-50%?) and incredibly fast respawn rate makes this the place to be!

Comment by Maddball

Dark Zealot's in Icecrown, outside the Argent Tournament grounds.

Spent about 30 minutes, got 125 charms. All mobs are roughly 10k in health.

Plus the penguin critters respawn fairly often and in large clutters, useful for the Critter Kill Squad achievement

Comment by Loved

Probably new best source for these as an 85 player are the:

Jaspertip Swarmers

and

Stone Bat

Comment by 23359

The best place I've thought of to farm these is in Icecrown by killing the Converted Heroes. Packs of 7ish, and I aoe them down with ease (prot paladin) -- I got about 120 in ~15 minutes.

Comment by 777016

Converted heroes in Icecrown drop very highly -- last group I killed gave me 7 for killing 8 level 80 mobs. I am doing this as a level 85 rogue and it is very easy.

Comment by Ljida

Jaspertip Swarmer and bats in the same area in Deepholme is a very good spot to farm these.

Comment by Olindholm

I belive the chance's to make this item is still quite big... i made easily 350 in 1h at lvl 85

Comment by 33818

I've been farming Converted Heroes and it seems like mobs that are killed by Molten Armor damage does not count as a killing blow, thus not giving you the charm on kill. It probably works the same with other similar abilities. So if you are a mage and is working on the charms make sure you put on the other two armor instead of Molten Armor.

Comment by alkemist

Northrend, Icecrown, the conflagration is easy for level 85 spriest. Just dot everything up, run around and let the shadowy apparitions do the rest. There are tons of mobs there, which you can collect greens, worthwhile junk for gold, and lots of frostweave cloth.

Comment by 233482

Currently soloing the slag now as a level 85 blood death knight, this is by far the easiest method if you can manage it.

My strat:

Enter the slag room and run to the back of the room, to the left or right of the stairs. Kill the unbound fire elemental and the first round of slags. Then use that space as your "home base". The unbound fire elementals do not respawn so it will always be safe there (I am posting this message while my character is standing there.) When you are ready for the next pull just run in a circle, pulling the mobs back into the corner. Lay down Death and Decay and spam blood boil. Use Deathstrike to heal your character up durring the fight. My total downtime is 0, any left over damage (at worst like 1 or 2k) is easily healed with runetap.

Drop rate is reasonable, anywhere from 3 to 9 charms a pull.
Spawn rate is HIGH.

Good luck.

EDIT:

A side note, I am a Human in a level 15 guild (alot of bonus faction rep gains) and i am getting about +5 rep per pull toward "The Alliance". I am wearing the tabard from Gnomeregan (faction reputation only reveered).

Comment by 11563

An excellent place to farm these is directly west of the Temple of Earth in Deepholm, just before Needlerock Slag. In this area are swarms of Stone Bats in the air and swarms of Jaspertip Swarmers on the ground. Both mobs have very low HP and can be one- or two-shot. The best is when you can pull a swarm of Bats down onto a group of Swarmers. If you have AoE, you will be stacking up the Charms in no time. :)

Comment by 633899

I get 10 per pull in icecrown with Death Knight Initiate

Comment by 781562

36 71 in Icecrown.

Kill the Risen Soldiers. They have ~3.7k HP and still con green at 85. They also have an instant repop where once you kill every last one 4-5 more spawn at the same time. Kill the floating guy too, the mobs he spawns aren't worth the delay in repop.

150 charms in ~10 minutes. Your mileage may vary depending on class/gear. (that is, you'll likely do better) I also seemed to get better results killing them one at a time rather than gathering all 5 and AoEing them, but that's probably just my superstition, they're one hit kills either way.

Comment by 781563

I've been at this for bit at Uldum in Schnottz's Landing killing the Schnottz Sea Troopers http://www.wowhead.com/npc=47982. I've gotten about 30 in an hour, the captains of each ship drop them too and they respawn pretty fast. just annoying going from ship to ship. but just thought I'd share my 2 copper on this :) Happy Charming everyone.

Comment by 233482

For yall posting who say omg its easy or omg its hard, could we please get classes on you? I know for a fact that while my Death Knight rocks the slags, my warlock gets rocked by them (I tried it)... It just helps when we know what kind of character you're playing.

Also, a sidenote, I tried farming bats on my rogue... pain in the @.... pulling them out of the air just sucks real bad, you're better off sticking with the jasper swarmers or trying your luck at the slags. A plus of chasing the slags is you can stealth to them with relative ease, avoiding the trash between the door and the mobs.

Comment by Species3259

Many (good) level 85 farming spots .. not so many for levels 45-60.

I came across one spot in Felwood, Talonbranch Glade (@63.21) where a scripted event (not phased) takes place. worgen fighting goblins.

You wont aggro anything unless you attack. You can stand at the road and target at least 6 mobs wo leaving your spot. They have a high spawn rate and there are many, many fights going on spread over a small area.

High drop rate, got 20 in 15 minutes with level50 char (25-30 kills). My only problem as a mage was running out of mana .. very fast :-)

Nice bonus .. Horde as well as Alliance can use the same spot!

Comment by Gabbyw5678

Icecrown at coords 58,70
~30 mins, 8 bracelets
There's an area with Deathknight Initiates all grouped up, about 15-20 of em. Pulled them all, few swipes of my claws and the whole group went down leaving me with anywhere between 5-10 charms.
And they respawn within seconds. Seriously, I didn't even have enough time to steal all their money before the next group popped up.

Comment by 775411

The best place to farm Lovely Charms are by pats called Stone Bats located in Deephold. Please watch this youtube video I created to inform you exaclly where they are located and more pats to farm off of. Its worth the view and very helpful.
P.S. I got 70 lovely charms in about 10-15 minutes.

Comment by bipolargirl

Eternal Protector in Uldum (32,58) at the Ruins of Ammon are level 83 and only have 40k health... this is an awesome place to farm them. ~50 in 25mins.

PS: Might be "worthwhile" to usePotion of Treasure Finding while farming these.

I went to this location because it was recommend as a high drop area. As a hunter I also wanted to test theories I'd heard like: A) shooting from a distance has a lower drop rate than being in melee range. B) Damage done by you increases drop rate. C) Kill shot increases drop rate.

When I first got to this area i was getting 1 charm for every 10 kills. That's shooting from a distance while my pet tanks and not taking kill shot into consideration. When I moved into melee range the drops increased to about 4 in 10. And when I made sure I was getting the kill shot, not my pet, I almost got 1 charm per kill.

I tested this for about 15 mins (got 17 charms) then I decided to try my potion of treasure finding. After drinking the potion for the next 15 mins I got a total of 2 charms and 1 treasure chest. Maybe just a coincidence or maybe the potion doesn't work for charms. I am an 85 hunter and this zone is 83. Might explain the lower drop rate for me.

Dismissing my pet and doing all the damage solo made no difference at all.

Comment by Ninja1

In Patch 4.03
Halls of Lightning- The Trash ''Non-elite'' Elementals called ''Slag'', just before the Boss Volkhan. All you need to do is gather them up and aoe and you will get Lovely Charm. Then, wait 10 seconds til they spawn and just repeat by killing them. No need of going out and reseting like you do in Halls of Stone. This is much faster and easier for most classes to farm.

Happy farming

Comment by 782112

As of patch 4.0.6, you now "Create" the Charm on Kill (any monster than isn't Grey).

Before (Patch >4.0.3), you "Create" the Charm on Looting the Body.

Comment by 713155

Dark Zealot

These guys are amazing for farming Lovely Charms. I honestly spent about 6 minutes killing them and got 30 charms.

Scratch that.

Converted Hero

Are ten times better, in about less than a minute I got 16.

Comment by 640592

Twilight Highlands, Highland Worg, for me, they had pretty high drop rate, got one Bracelet(10 Charms) in under 3 minutes of farming from those.

Hope this helped someone, enjoy:)

Comment by 732847

As a prot paladin, I went to the Cathedral of Darkness outside of ICC. Pulled an entire side of the room at once. I got 80 of these in about 15 mins.

Comment by Tetrabitri

Another good place for these is the Verlock stand in Deepholm. The Area where the troggs are dropping from, right above the Glop cave, has a lot of mobs with a fast respawn rate.

Comment by x4dow

At least for Prot pala 85, best place to farm them ( IMO ) is on the elementals at Halls of Lighting normal ( Slag's 15k hp) non stop respawn, about 1 bracelet every 1-1.5 min

Comment by Aldurr

36, 71 Icecrown- Risen Skeletons

There's nothing else to say. This place is the best possible area to farm. High drop rate, insane respawn, and low HP.

120+ in <10min

Comment by 593206

So can you only get the charms if your a lvl 70 or higher? I'm a 17 and can't get a thing.

Comment by Drantor242

Listen up! The Fungal Behemoths in the Crimson Expanse, Deepholm. This is the place to get your charms. The Behemoths spawn mushrooms that you can kill and these mushrooms also sometimes give charms, easiest kills. I got 4 charms from one behemoth because of these mushrooms. I hope this helps! (Just remember you won't get a charm from every single kill).

P.S. killing 8 of these behemoths is an objective of one of the daily quests that you can get at Therazane's Throne.

edit: I went here again this year, and i no longer seemed to get charms from the mushrooms...

Comment by rilgania

Pet classes can "farm" this afk. Go to HoL normal, fight or stealth your way to the slag room, set your pet to defensive and enjoy! :)
I run this as a BM hunter with spirit beast which provides a self heal. Any classes with a little surviability or auto self-heals shouldn't ever need to worry about dieing. I found the best spot to stand close to the structure in the center between two spawn points. Clear the whole room once, then you should see the four of them.

Comment by 783550

where is a good place for a level 45 blood elf mage? ive just been doing dungeons and getting them that way.

Comment by Tetteri

Found a nice place to farm these: in Alliance's mine in AV i got 15 in a run. great place :)

Comment by Totemizer

Best spot for level 85's:

I am a 85 warrior tank and if you go to Halls of lightning in The Storm Peaks you can clear up to the Gauntlet (Where the rock elementals spawn)

I ran around in circles rending the elementals and thunder clapping for 20 minutes and got 130 charms.

Mob Info:
Level 80
Roughly 11 K health
Respawn rate is very rapid. They were respawning by the time I did a lap.
Hit for about 200 Damage on a tank.

Comment by 736588

I'm 84, and I went to Garm (east of K3) in Storm Peaks. I had 43 charms in about 45 minutes. Just go in the little cave that's to the back of where all the idiot critters are running. While you're waiting for the guys to respawn in the cave, you can step outside & kill the Snowblind Devotees that are hanging around the totem things outside the cave. There's also a little hill to the right side of the entrance that has a few on top of it.

Best place, Onslaught Harbor - Icecrown(9, 45)

Comment by r00st3r

It would appear that last years bug that was hot fixed last year is back again this year. :/ I ran my daughters priest through ramps and blood furnace with my 85 protection paladin. She got 1 lovely charm on 3 full dungeon clears. I of course got none as the monsters are grey to me, this was expected. What was not expected was to get 1 lovely charm on 3 full dungeon clears for a character that is the correct level to receive the lovely charms. Bag space was a none issue, over 3 bags empty! I really hope this gets hot fixed real soon!

fast respawn and best droprate ever

Comment by Cursalock

At level 85, the fastest place that I have found to farm these is in the Conflagration area of Icecrown, by killing the groups of Converted Heroes. Each group yields 2-4 of them on average. I was able to farm 160 of them in about 45 minutes on my warlock and also earned a tidy sum from drops and AH items.

Comment by Rakkerzero

This item cannot be picked as normal loot. When you kill a monster and you hear a *TING*-sound (normal sound settings) it means a Lovely Charm is generated into your bags.

Comment by 711520

After killing something like 30 mobs outside of the Argent Tournament grounds, I havent gotten a single charm. Any idea wtf is up?

Comment by diokeeg

Best place to grind these are in Halls of Lightning. Just avoid the patrol in the first section and the next section is full of slags (charcoal rock/fire things). They respawn quickly and you can even just stand to the right of where you enter and one will keep coming towards you one after another (you don't have to go around and around).

Comment by UncleN00b

Remember the Jaspertip Swarmers in Deepholm that drop tons of Embersilk? Well, they don't anymore. But those pat'ing groups of swarmers and bats can award charms. I just stand at 35.5, 62.1 in Deepholm and the groups just run by and aggro into me. 1 Blast Wave, 1 Flame Strike, 1 Arcane Explosion, let the DoT finish them off. The groups of bats that fly around die even faster and also award charms, so watch for those.

Lots less running around than all other spots I've seen suggested here. Just stand there, and let the charms come to you. The only mobs I really had to "go after" were the Stone Bats. Like a whole 3-4 steps or something... In the meantime, I'm texting on my phone, reading my e-mails, etc, and dropping 2-3 aoes every 45 seconds or so to yield 3-6 charms or so. I didn't really time it, but I've been there for barely more than an hour and have over 200 charms.

Happy farming!

Comment by 46090

The patrolling groups of bugs in the Stonecore drop LOADS of these. I got at least 3 from each pack, and that's one or two aoe spells for a mage.

As a balance druid I've found it very easy to farm these in Icecrown. I'm in the Broken Front, just south of Mord'rethar: The Death Gate. The mobs here spawn almost as soon as they are killed and are very close and numerous.

As a balance druid I can just DoT them up with Moonfire/Sunfire and within two ticks they mob dies. Starfall and Hurricane also work very well here.

I imagine a shaman using chain lightning would also be effective in this area.

Been here for maybe 30 minutes and am on my way to completing my 9th necklace.

Comment by lanchop

By far the best way to farm these is

step 1. Make bloodelf warlock
step 2. Get to lvl 5
step 3. go to town and stop exp gain and pick up cellectors kit (must stop exp gain cos at lvl 6 they turn gray and no longer drop charms)
step 4. load up on heirlooms
step 5. hs back to starter zone and kill mana wyrms using corruption spell
step 6. WIN!

they will spawn faster than u can kill guaranteed to be fastest way to get charms. its nice to be able to stop killing for 10 secs and watching hp regen super fast cos low lvl

Level 80-85 strat:

Go to Deepholm,
Find the Fungal Behemoths: Fungal Behemoth
Aggro two or more at a time, but do not kill them
They will cast Shroom Stomp: Shroom Stomp
and create Unstable Shrooms: Unstable Shroom
Which you AoE and proc the chance to get the Lovely Charms

As a warrior I just used thunderclap every time they casted multiple ones and would then victory rush or single target the ones remaining as needed.

Happy Hunting

NEW LVL 85 FARM SPOT!

- Go to Icecrown

- Then to: The Conflagration (middle of the map)

- Fly around and look for the ''Converted Heroes'' packs

- Kill and you get many of these charms in NO time!

Note:
They have 12-13k hp so they can be killed by any class!

Comment by Shadowwhelp

Stacks at 40 in case anyone was wondering.

Comment by rommy1980

tried to farm cult researchers, but spawn timer was to low, then tried converted heroes west of ymirheim, they walk around in packs of 7+some randoms as prot pally was doing 1-2packs at a time, due to bit annoying slow, but worked better then others mobs for me anyway. /missed post above, sry :)

Comment by 791849

Where can a 61st level hunt for this item?

Comment by Jaycoop

Gnomebliteration quest in Uldum does not provide Lovely Charms, looks like this year they were smarter;)

Comment by nisx

Go in Cathedral of the Darkness in Icecrown and kill the Chosen Zealots. They have around 34k hp, respawn is really fast and they are in group of 19 to 24. The drop seems to be not 100%.

Location of zaelots: http://i.imgur.com/jttCx.jpg

Comment by Mahweij

Go to icecrown and bring a friend.

Go to "Aldu'thar" (is located up north) and get inside that big building. Your friend takes the left hand side and u take the right hand side. You leave the group to increase ur chance of getting the lovely charms.

Both of u kill the cult researchers in there:"http://www.wowhead.com/npc=32297They respawn next to instantly if you are two people farming as they share spawn with the others in there.

Hope it helped ;)

Comment by 500383

As a lvl 85 prot warrior (ilvl393) I went to the Fractured Front (between Stonehearth and Needlerock Slag) in Deepholme where the troggs and the dwarves are hurting each other. I massacred the troggs. Literally. Charging in a grp, rend, TC, intercept the other, rend, TC, Leap the next group, rend, TC = profit.

The troggs has a strange agro table so make sure you dmg them directly with TC and rend (or anything u got). Otherwise they wont agro you, therefore they will stay in place while you running around gathering the mobs. Also there are some casters so I found gathering 2-3 groups is the best. Every class should be able to aoe nuke the troggs in decent gear and moderate self heal (although self-heal is only for avoiding downtimes).

I collected 70 charms in 10 minutes

Comment by 944055

Killed about 50 mobs but did not get any charms eventhough i got the kit with me!

Comment by Sheals

Those that say you can't get a Lovely Charm while collecting Grisly Trophies are wrong!
You can't get 'm at the same time from one mob, but farming the lvl 80's in icecrown is giving me lovely charms and grisly trophy's in turn.
So you're perfectly able to do both and don't have to complete testing your strenght first.

http://i40.tinypic.com/25zt181.jpg

Edit: Added link as proof

Comment by Mahweij

By the way - Being in a group lowers the chance of you getting a charm ;) Just to be clear

Comment by 718694

FYI... you can not do "test your strength" at the same time!

Comment by Mightyblimp

Two great ways to farm these.

1: Go to Icecrown and bounce between the two 80 elites Rokir and Baelok, killing all of the level 80 death knight initiates and adepts - unless someone else is farming there as well you'll never have to wait on respawn. If you're having trouble burning through these and mobs are respawning before you're finished on the miniboss I recommend simply staying at Baelok, he has less annoying abilities.

2. Fractured Front in Deepholm, many of the mobs are already quite injured and you can, depending on your class, rake in a ton of charms very quickly. This area is recommended for classes that are able to put on a +threat ability because otherwise mobs are unlikely to break away and chase you, hindering your ability to mount up should you need to. (recommended by MajinDLX)

3. One more place if you're after charms and embersilk is the little path connecting wetlands and twilight highlands, if you're up to the quest in the twilight highlands chain in which twilight cultists are defending the wagon you can get a large amount of both fairly quickly as the npc's will help you.

Comment by Soeroah

The Molten Front daily "Enduring the Heat" can give you Lovely Charms, but the drop rate seems as low as elsewhere. I stepped into a rune to protect myself from the enemies, typed out a comment, went back and killed about 8 elementals simultaneously and only received one Charm. I got about six doing that daily.

Comment by mrkorb

Went farming in the area just south of the "Needlerock Slag" label on the Deepholm map, with the DM Faire collection book in my bags and 0 trophies collected. By the time I hit 200 trophies, I had 96 Lovely Charms as well. Those posts saying you can't collect both the charms and the Grisly Trophies at the same time are flat wrong.

EDIT: After collecting my 250th Grisly Trophy, the drop rate on the charms did not increase at all, but remained rather low, around 1-in-4 I'd say. Based on this I think I'd even go so far as to say that the drop of a charm overrides the drop of a trophy, as the trophy seems to be a guaranteed drop on every solo kill, whereas the charm is the non-guaranteed drop, but manages to find it's way into your bags consistently amid the constant flow of trophies.

Comment by Falynn

Halls of Lightning (regular) is still a great place to farm these as of 2/4/12 - clear up to the Iron Crucible and just continuously AoE the slags there.

Went in as a marginally geared demo lock - just ran around hellfiring. Cleared once, Soul Harvested, and the whole room respawned by the time I was back at full. Far more efficient than converted heroes in Icecrown, as you won't have any competition and the spawn is instant.

Edit: they hit for about 400 on cloth.
Additional edit: this method seems to average about 4-6 charms per circle. With one circle taking approximately 1 minute including heal time, and allowing for some additional downtime, it seems one could farm anywhere from 200-300 charms per hour.

Comment by 869662

For the lowers levels 10+ The Crown Lackeys outside of orgrimar are for lucky charms, and between the levels of 10-14 quite good experience too. Hope this helps :)

Comment by Amonjura

The best place to farm them, in my opinion, is in Uldum while doing the quest Crushing the Crown In 30 minutes I picked up the full 120 I needed for the achievement. The level 83 mobs are easy to kill and there are loads of them that constantly respawn.

Comment by burntcorpse

Me and a couple of friends found a really great spot to farm these in. Go into Throne of Tides and kill the little Unstable Corruption. They've got about 3k hp each and respawn extremely fast. Been farming them for about 45 minutes now and have gotten almost 400 of the charms. These guys respawn faster than the Slags in Halls of Lightning so this is in my opinion the best spot to farm them at.

Comment by alparnas

***ATTENTION***

You can do "Test Your Strength" and collect Lovely Charms at the -same- time.

I have done both quest on my priest and on my DKDK and it worked fine, farmed mobs in Conflagration near ICC.

Official since TODAY (Source)

Events
Love is in the Air
Players are now able to receive Lovely Charms while on the quest "Test Your Strength", when the player's inventory has both the Darkmoon Adventurer's Guide and Lovely Charm Collector's Kit.
Players now have the chance to receive both the Lovely Charm and Grisly Trophy from a single kill.

Comment by Feranda

Confirmed that you can get these from lvl 80 mobs, and from dungeons too. With or without Darkmoon Adventurer's Guide.

Comment by Sorraxe

Best way to farm this is , is to grind the Slag in Halls of Lightning They have a respawn around 10 second and all you have to do is to clear the area and wait 10 seconds for them to respawn. Remember not to kill the Elites in the corner, as that might stop the respawning, since iam not sure of that, best thing to do is to let the elites be left alone and just focus on the Slag . Happy grinding folks.

Edit- Each spawn gaved me around 7-8 charms.

2012-02-06 / Sorraxe. Happy grinding folks.

Update folks. Tried another spot with a friend of mine. Scalding Rock Elemental , just outside Nordrassil Inn , in Hyjal. All you need to do is just gather a bunch of Scalding Rock Elemental and aoe with the help of the elite guards. This works great for level 80+. Once again, happy grinding folks

Comment by 48742

water elementals in Twilight Higlands near the horde base

Comment by AngusMacBeer

Level 85 rogue here. I was able to gather BOTH Grisly Trophies and Lovely Charms. By far the best way to farm both of these is the Conflagration in Icecrown. Lots of level 78-80 mobs, still green and in groups of 5-8 so AoE makes it fast.

I'm not sure if I ever got a charm and a trophy from the SAME mob, but I got plenty of both as I did my laps around the area.

Comment by ironskillet

if your a protection warrior, you can farm 15 on average every 2 minutes in deepholm, dedicate an hour to this and you have 450 on your hands

now if your interested in getting the mount day 1, think the max you could have as of right now just from dailies is 60 + the 10-20 from the random

leaving you with about 200 to go, or 2,000 charms, which pretty much means 5 hours of grinding

again, seems only feasible as a prot warrior or DK

Comment by Dreded

The best place to farm for these that I have found is Deepholm Troggs (22,61) also a great place to farm for Grizly Trophys for Darkmoon Fair.

The Lovely Charm Bracelets are no longer BoE and cannot be sold on the AH and will require around 270 (2,700 Love Charms) to get amount (excluding the dailies)

Happy Farmig

Comment by Arith

You can farm these off the Muddied Water Elemental around 68, 48 in Twilight Highlands. Good drop rate too.

You can also get a lot of Lovely Charms by killing the elementals before the 2nd boss in Throne of the Tides

Comment by czeshirecat

Ive done 2 rounds of slag in HOL, no drop. Getting grisly trophies ok. Im level 85 with lovely charm collectors kit. Do you need to be 80 ?
Later note: This is bugged.Some of us can't get the charms if you're already on the grisly trophy quest.

Comment by alparnas

I'm suprised no one mentioned it - but the Mjondin Combatants at Savage Ledge (bit southwest of Shadow Vault) have a great (almost instantly) respawn timer, and they die very quickly.

Just farming them alone on my hunter for nearly 30-40minutes, got almost 9 full stacks of 40 lovely charms

Good hunting!

Comment by wowogamer

Today I farmed for both the Lovely Charms and the Grisly Trophys on 2 different toons. Both toons had both the Lovely Charms Collector’s Kit AND the Darkmoon Adventurer’s Guide (= Grisly Trophy kit) in their inventory at the same time.

With my level 19 warrior I farmed green (level 15-17) mobs in Redridge Mountains, and these mobs dropped both Lovely Charms and Grisly Trophys, sometimes even from the same mob/kill. When I stopped farming on my lvl 19 warrior, I had collected about 50-60 Lovely Charms and 80 Grisly Trophys.

After that, I logged on my lvl 85 druid and went to Mount Hyjal where I started farming some green (level 80) elementals. They did only drop Grisly Trophys for me, and not a single Lovely Charm. After a while I started killing some other green (level 80) humanoid mobs, same result, lots of Grisly Trophys but no Lovely Charms. Then I began doing the Molten Front dailies killing lvl 85 mobs, but still no Lovely Charms dropping only Grisly Trophys. At this point I had farmed 76 Grisly Trophys, and not a single Lovely Charm had dropped.

As an experiment, I then took my Darkmoon Adventurer’s Guide (the Grisly Trophy Kit) and put it into my Bank so that it no longer was in my inventory, and from that moment on the mobs started dropping Lovely Charms like a charm so to speak...

It seems to me that Grisly Trophys and Lovely Charms sometimes can be farmed at the same time. But at other times / on other toons / at other levels / in other zones it is only possible to farm one of them at a time. So it seems to be a bit bugged.

So: If the Lovely Charms won’t drop for you and you have the Darkmoon Adventurer’s Guide in your bags try put it in your bank as long as you are farming Lovely Charms (you don’t need to quit the Darkmoon quest). It might help.

Comment by meowzsa

The best place to farm at the moment is in deepholm at stoneheart, those throggs die fast and respawn really quickly.
I got 800 charms in 2 hours.

Goodluck to anyone farming them!

Comment by jchamp87

Well my hand is incredibly sore but after just an hour using a potion of treasure finding and pulling very literally non-stop as a feral druid I farmed up 5 stacks of these. Taking a break and starting hour 2. Farmed in Uldum off the mobs for the Crushing the Crown quest.

Comment by eopu

Throne of the Tides is best farming spot for me. You have to kill first boss, some trash and go back to where the little water elementals are (passage just before last boss).They respawn almost instantly, they are easily AOEd and you do not have to fight over mobs with other players. Most of the time, you just have to stand in one place and they will come after you

Comment by halflife

I've been killing Troggs for 40 minutes and have 178 of them, not sure about that 800 in 2 hours claim above but either way...

Comment by Ysgarth

I've been doing laps around the iron crucible in Halls of Lightning for about 2 hours. The rate at this spot is 400 charms per hour.

Comment by bclumas

To update the bug: the lovely charms will drop if you have the "Test Your Strength" Darkmoon Faire quest completed in your logs. I was unable to complete it last faire and have yet to turn it in for the current faire.

Comment by 844304

Best farming spot by far, easy for 85s -- Adur'thar: The Desolation Gate ; inside the cathedral

All the guys in there have a beyond decent drop rate for the charms and respawn mad crazy.

Comment by Hamad

Im not sure if this is going to help but there is a mob called "Pustulent Horror" (runs around with 10-12 other mobs) near ICC , one bladestorm got me 9 charms, the second time i did it i got 3 though.SLOW SPAWN RATE (2 or 3 minutes) but you can kill the mobs around him for more charms.
(note: i just made this wowhead account 5 mins ago and i still dont know how to link stuff, sorry)

Edit: Took me 10 minutes to get 30 charms.

Comment by 773532

Farmed living bloods in Deathwing's fall, killed 236 of em in one hour and obtained 123 lovely charms

Comment by Kratfrotz

AFK farming method for hunters (preferably with ):
1. go to Skadi the Ruthless in Utgarde Pinnacle normal
2. clear all the stationary mobs in the hallway
3. stand on the right, by the windows (to avoid frost breath)
4. put pet on defensive
5. go AFK

Farming isn't as fast as other methods, but you can be AFK!

Comment by Hamad

BREAKING NEWS : Just found absolute best place to farm these -- 37.11,71.21 -- i'd advise range, MOBS WITH 3k health, litterally 1 shot all of them. INSTANT Spawn rate, or maybe 1 second spawn rate. Very high chance of dropping the charm as well. Took me 3 minutes to get 50 charms! Good luck everyone.
ICC, The FleshWerks!

Im probably gonna get down rated so people dont see this. its ight.

DocTH, you probably have the darkmoon faire quest still active, delete it and get the itemLovely Charm Collector's Kit you should start getting them :)

Comment by JumperBaltzer

I've found that if ya just go about you normal level appropriate questing, these things drop on a regular basis, every 2 to 5 kills or so.......

Comment by Nigogjii

Broken front in Icecrown.
Fast spawn and alot of them.
Farming here will give around 400-600 charms a hour

Comment by littleminx

In Halls Of Lightning dungeon, as you reach The Iron Crucible you will see npc's called Slag average hp 15k, i stood there pew pewing them like a shooting gallery near instant respawn, and within 30 mins i got 145 lovely charms!, definatley worth it, no looting involved just stand there and pew pew away!

Comment by Ketrel

If the comments about the Grisly Trophies are true, then a good place to go is Heroic Halls of Lightning to where the slags are and start killing them. (I'm getting Grisly trophies, so I'm not sure. I'm going to take it to 250 of them, and I'll report back on if charms start dropping).

Comment by Jonnyne

Alright, I believe I have found a good spot.

For those who are willing to work their way to it, in Normal Throne of Tides, after the first two bosses, the little elementals, Unstable Corruption, that spawn there are very rapid. I was able to farm 200+ charms in 20minutes. 700 in 1 hour.

However, DO NOT kill the last two large elementals at the gate to the last boss. These things spawn so fast.

However, don't leave the instance if you're by yourself. Everything respawns. Doh!

Comment by Melancolie

Another quick way to farm lovely charms @ 85.

Head to Halls of Lightning and enter. Head towards first boss (Volkhan). Just before him there's a crucible with 15 lvl 79 slags. Gather them up and aoe down, then stand on one side of the middle pillar and 8 of the slags will auto-aggro you when they spawn, then run around and gather the other 7.

Rinse and repeat, the slags have 30 sec respawn time, and takes about 10 secs to gather and 5 secs to aoe, giving you somewhere between 0 and 15 charms every 45 seconds.

Comment by XylanTrueheart

A reminder for those farming the Lovely Charm to make Lovely Charm Bracelet. The Lovely Charm stacks in lots of 40 and it takes 10 x Lovely Charm to make one Lovely Charm Bracelet. You can hold as many stacks of Lovely Charm as your inventory can hold. However Lovely Charm Bracelet do not stack. So its best to hold off combining the Lovely Charm's till you are ready to buy the Love Token which stacks in 250.

It may be more efficient to combine farming the Lovely Charm with doing the event dailies. As an example doing the A Gift for the King of Stormwind and the other three city bosses for your faction will garner you 5 x Love Token for one Lovely Charm Bracelet. This is opposed to using one Lovely Charm Bracelet to buy only one Love Token from the holiday vendors.

Comment by 944530

so you all know, the fleshworks risen soldiers still work great, but it took me a while to figure out that you dont get the charms by "looting" the enemies, you receive the charm when you kill the enemy provided here is room in your bag, so dont make the same mistake i did expecting it to be in the loot screen

Comment by 944539

Just killed 1000 Risen Soldiers(In Icecrown, just a bit south of The Fleshwerks) within 2-3 hours and i got 342 Lovely Charms. Easiest farming i have ever done.
And i recommend this place 100% !

Comment by Sleepless

You get them on the Molten Front quest "Enduring the Heat" when you destroy the runes and take out the Unstable Flameragers. However, I let many of them stack up on me, and I still only got three charms max, and usually just one.

Comment by 664925

Going to try the Heroic Culling Gauntlet. See if it still works.

Comment by Findmestuff

I noticed that all the places I found discussed here were pretty much taken, so I went in search of my own spot, I finally decided on Onslaught Harbor in Icecrown. There was no competition and the drop rate was good. Especially pulling the front of the citadel and inside. Averaging 10-13 drops every time. Happy Hunting!

Comment by sillysauce

I found that you can farm a ton of these very fast in Icecrown. It at Malykriss: The Vile Hold (doesn't show up on map). If you're facing ICC, there's a a Necropolis that's being created off to the left. North east of it and south west of it there are 2 groups of Death Knight Adepts and Death Knight Initiates. They respawn pretty fast and if you've got the AoE you can kill them all pretty fast.

Comment by 944254

Just now confirmed, the bats and tiny flayers in Deepholm do drop these!
Even better, you can take the flayers attacking the Son's of Kor and get credit for them when they die from the Son's AOE. It may be a little more tedious than the Slags in HOL but at least you won't be waddling everywhere when you farm. I do enough waddling as a mut rogue.

Comment by lilrex

Can you only get charms from CATA mobs?

Comment by Jeolene

Taking the advice from other posts here, I will agree that the slags in Lightning Halls on normal are indeed the way to go. I found that after an initial clear, standing either to the left or right of the forge in the center (after you first enter the room) gives you a vantage point to hit three spawn points.

The spawn points, when you are facing the forge from the entrance and the exit, spawn more slags than the left and right points. The spawn point near the entrance also seems to spawn twice as many slags as the one near the exit. I had around 8-10 spawns at a time which, at 85, go down very fast with little or no damage to myself. Spawn rates are near instant, sometimes only a few seconds of waiting and there were times I was actually getting insta-spawns and had to catch up.

I didn't keep track of time, but I would say in about 45 mins, I got about 90 charms. I would have stayed longer, but I was getting hungry :P

*edit 'cause grammar fails me...

Comment by Rezzelyn

For those who are lower than 85 (my alt was lvl 54 when doing this quest) and need advice for gaining Lovely Charms, you will get the Charms from killing any mob that is yellow or above (gives exp). I recommend joining a random dungeon that is for your level range to gain the most Charms in a short amount of time. In one instance (Blackrock), I had enough charms for 3 necklaces, and 6 extra.

They drop from any of the mobs, elementals, humanoids, anything. However, they do not drop 100% of the time, so don't expect every kill to yield a Charm.

Comment by PsychoBilli

As a general rule, anything you can kill quickly and kill en masse is a good place to farm Lovely Charms. Apparently nothing says loving like mass murder and war crimes.

Comment by 560444

Alright. For those of you that are 85 and comfortable with your abilities, I have the perfect place for you to farm these pesky suckers for big gains.

Deepholm. Shuddering Spires. If you quested in Deepholm for the Therazane rep, it's the area where Kor the Immovable is "entrenched".

Your Targets
Jaspertip Swarmer
Stone Bat

The Stone Bats fly around the area in tight-knit groups. Usually 7-8, possibly more. One bat will usually be a few yards ahead of the "group", as if it's leading them. They enjoy flying some distance off the ground, so if you have any ranged abilities, it may be a pain to line up a shot jut right to aggro them down. Hitting/killing even a single one causes the whole swarm to fly down to you. In my case, as a rogue, I flew over them, dismounted, and Fan of Knives mid-air.

The Jaspertip Swarmers run around in groups. There are less of them in these groups than there are of the Stone Bats, about 3-5. These adds will lunge at any Son of Kor they pat near, so get them before they get too close to them.

Both adds are a breeze for an average 85. I found farming them yielded much more than the Converted Heroes in Icecrown, due to the fact that so many people already camp the Heroes and I was alone in my killing of the bats & swarmers. If the Super Bowl weren't on tonight, I would of farmed all the Lovely Charm Bracelets I needed to trade in to get enough Love Fools for I Pitied The Fool, but oh well.

Happy Farming,
Emevoli of Bladefist

Comment by Phollux

If you are a permanent pet class, Halls of Lightning is the place to farm when you sleep!

Go to the entrance to the room where the Slags are and stand just inside the entrance so you only aggro the 2-3 nearest Slags, the trick is that the Slags your pet kills does give you Lovely Charms without you having to deal any damage to the mobs, thus if you find the correct distance where you and your pet don't get overwhelmed by mobs, you can actually go to sleep and farm these Charms - or rather, you can watch tv or the like and only get back once in a while to get you out of AFK state to avoid getting disconnected eventually.

Comment by KushoLion

Maybe it's just me, but they seem to have a much lower drop-rate this year. I've already finished my ordeal with the Darkmoon Fair's grisly trophies, but the lovely charms barely drop. I've just spent half an hour farming yellow-level mobs, and I have two charms to show for my efforts. It seems that they only drop off of maybe 1 in 15-20 mobs. Is anybody else finding this to be true?

Comment by 817929

Actually you can farm both charms and grisly trophys at the same time. just the charms dont drop as offten. The Valley of Fallen Heroes in Icecrown has fast spawn rate and seems to work decently for charm collections.

Comment by Chibchub123

Aldur'thar: The Desolation Gate. Midle of northern Icecrown. This spot is the best I've seen so far, for no extra clearing of instances. I haven't tried farming the little elementals in Throne of the Tides, I assume it's pretty good. At Aldur'thar the respawn time is "instant." There are ALWAYS mobs up, you won't ever have to stop and wait. I recieved 80 charms in 20 minutes doing this, it's a bit more involved and you have to walk around a bit, but as a Prot Paladin with not a ton of ranged, and the inability to one-shot (for the most part) from ranged, I was still getting 80 charms/20 mins. It was simple enough, it's mostly single-target.

Comment by Decruption

2012 and HOL is still the best place with the slags, 13 lovely charm braclets in less than 10 min as fire mage

Comment by 94939

Single greatest farming spot. Ever. For any reason. Always. Aldur'thar, the Desolation gate. Up top, outside of the temple, where the Shadow Channelers are. There's a few patrols, an overlord, and a couple of the channelers. The mobs spawns are locked so there will NEVER be less than 2. They're all very close by each other and it makes life very easy. I farmed up two dozen of the BRACELETS in less than an hour of murder.

This works for 85s as well.

Co-ords are roughly 54,30.

Comment by NevadaDimitri

Another trick I just learned involves a little time spent in Molten Front. If you have Forlorn Spire opened, and plan to do the MF dailies, why not bring your Lovely Charm Collector's Kit along. Pick up the quest, Enduring the Heat, enter the cave, and stand on a rune. Let a few Unstable Flamerager spawn and start attacking you. Don't worry; standing on the rune gives you a buff that drastically reduces the damage you receive (I took about 60 damage per hit in cloth). They die on their own in about 30 seconds, so you probably won't be able to get more than 6 of these guys on you at a time. I usually got 2-3 charms on each rune. You can also abandon the quest after all the runes are destroyed, pick it up again, and repeat. It's not a bad alternative to the HoL and TotT methods, especially if you're really squishy or don't feel like stocking up on lots of food.

Comment by Skinnar

The best place I've found is the Unstable Corruption in the Throne of the Tides (Normal).

Kill the first two bosses, take the portal, head down the corridor and turn to your left.

I obtained 1280 within 1hour. You can get about 15-25 a minute.
Respawn time is 5-10secs

These mobs are Level 80 with 3k HP

Picture of me Farming: http://i41.tinypic.com/2e3wti8.jpg

Comment by onethirty

For any low levels trying to get these, I found killing the crown agents wherever the Crushing the Crown daily sends you to be the best way. They respawn really fast and have a good drop rate.

Comment by halflife

The Fleshwerks in Icecrown, mobs are level 80 and have 3.7k HP, instant respawn, guessing the fact that there is tons of dead bodies there on my server means they yield charms

Comment by 944737

Does anyone tested this at Culling of Stratholme? Do the Zombies drop? I mean, you can always wait till one of the flags go to a distant place and then start to beat'em up!

edit: just tested, they doesn't drop... it seems the Slags are the best place to farm so far, anyway I've noticed a pattern of drops when you get to many too fast, they won't drop for a little while and they will drop less after that, anyone can confirm?

Comment by 612787

I tested out the Slag and here were my results.

Slag

1 Hour of straight farming, with about 75% of the damage single target and 25% aoe (assuming that single target damage increases likelihood of charm drop rate) I also killed them very fast, with about a 2-5 second delay after they spawned. I did this on an arms warrior.

I got 230 charms in 1 hour.

Not sure if this has the best drop rate/time but the consistent drops without worry of competing with other players makes it a reliable spot.

Comment by SherriaRH

I farmed 280 charms in an hour as a disc priest in The Iron Crucible in regular Halls of Lightning from the Slags. I shielded ran around and collected them all, then mind seared them. i was also able to complete my quest for "The Grisly Trophy's " for Darkmoon Faire as well.

Comment by Adraunn

An endless string of mob spawns for fast, easy pulling that won't bore you to tears or are being overly farmed by others can be found in Icecrown.

This is a screen shot of about 15 minutes of work. ;)

Comment by 944838

Death knight adept/intiates Seem to be awesome for farming:
Death Knight Adept
Death Knight Initiate

The particular pack im camping Spawns in a group of about 22 and has a respawn time i would guestimate at about 45secs or less
The farm rate is incredible i highly reccomend it

Comment by 608344

One thing to note i don't think anyone said this from previous posts looks like the Test your strength quest takes precedence over charm creations haven't gotten a single one since on both quests i hope you don't make the same errors i have had made. Stack size = 40 for the Lovely charm and charm bracelet don't stack also keep this in mind; This Precedence Was changed in the most recent hotfix blizz did in patch 4.3.2. Now they can spawn at the same time there is no precedence place on the two items anymore update i found this out just wanted to reshare this new informtion.

Comment by 944859

too get this thinks just fly araound icc and kill skeletons and u gona get 100%

Comment by 264326

What seems to be after experimenting with a guild member- if you have the Darkmoon Faire quest for grisly trophies AND this quest- you need to be in a group and in proximity to get the tokens. Once the Faire quest was turned in - no longer required group/proximity.

Comment by MrSasquatch

If you're a pet class you can literally just stand where the slags spawn and AFK and I guess they made it so it loots to you anyway now.

Hey guys. If you are looking to farm Lovely Charm Look no further than the Unstable Corruption in the Throne of the Tides.

Quick Kill
Super Fast Spawn
High Drop Rate
Low Damage

As of Febuary 6th 2012. I would say that this is probably the best play to get Lovely Charm. In order to get to the kill area you'll need to solo the first boss in the instance in order to open up the hallway. The second boss can be skipped simply by walking around him. Downstairs the zone will be open and the farming can begin! Actively clearing at full speed, I was able to farm about 140 of charms in 10 minutes.

Quick Tips for Farming the Charms Here:

Never Approch the 2 Tainted Sentry's at the end of the hall.
- If you pull and kill these Sentries, the adds will stop spawning and you'll need to reset the instance.
- This is very important lol. Don't get close to them!
- Always have the instance on NORMAL difficulty.
  
  Less time to clear the two bosses
- Less damage from Wave of Corruption
- If you are not a class with self heals, bring a couple peices of food. This will help you heal up if you need it.

Couple of Screenshots:

16 Charms in 50 seconds

Start at 163

Plus 70 after 5 minutes

Plus 140 after 10 minutes

GL! Happy Farming. Will Post if Hot-fixed.

In deepholm needlerock chasm/needlerock slag great place to farm these, good aoe possibilities:) just got 120 of em in about 15 min as fire mage

Comment by Pubrulz

I prefer to farm the slags, mainly because you can watch for the TLPD/Vargas spawn on the way from Dal (if you have your hearth there).

Comment by 944926

I would like to say this was easy, took me about 4 hours of doing but what I did was create a level 1 rogue (i have all the boa gear for him) and ran to stormwind, paid to turn off my xp, got the box to create the charms, hearthed back to the abby, and killed killed killed, didnt gain xp, and got all the charms i needed to get the mount, and sold the mount for 35,000 gold on the ah. great way to make money if you have the time

Comment by Ibbi

In 30 minutes farming slags in Halls of Lightning as a feral tank, I was able to rack up around 125 of these.

After clearing the slags, it takes around 20 seconds for them to all respawn. Great spot that's instanced, no competition for kills from other players.

Comment by 666372

One important thing about "Lovely Charm Bracelet" is that they DON'T STACK! So in order to keep your bags clean as much as possible for an happy farming experience, I suggest you to keep them as stack of 40 "Lovely Charm" until you need to turn them in.

Comment by ErroneousDylan

Note Worthy: As people have said, you can set your pets on aggressive and have them do all the work and you will still collect the charms. In addition to this, I have found out that it does not matter who actually has marked the target first.

I was able to attack monsters that were already being attacked by others and had a grey bar, and was still able to get charms from them.

If you have a warlock, Spriest, or anything else with easily tossed up DoTs, it is great to go to the area in Uldum where everybody is doing the daily quest Crushing the Crown and just put DoTs up on all the mobs while everyone does the rest of the damage. As long as you contribute damage to the target, regardless of who actually initiated, you still have a chance at getting a charm.

Comment by Magepwnyou

For players farming these, ive found a few very good locations for killing mass amounts of mobs. I'll rank the top 5 ive found starting with the most effecient.

1. Death Knight Initiates - In front of ice crown citadel, there are 23 of them clumped into around a 10 yard radius around a mob named Rokir. these all have a chance to generate a charm, the cool thing is Rokir actually summons an army of undead similar to the death Knights ability and provides you with about another 20 to kill every 30 seconds. The respawn timer on the 23 mobs is around 20 seconds. This is by FAR more effective then the other methods.

2. Throne of Tides. The elementals that spwns just before the last boss are an excellent source for these, be sure to do this in normal mode and not heroic. they have about a 5-8 second spawn timer. It's best to do this as a ranged DPS. Make sure you don't kill the 2 large adds just before the boss or you'll end the spawning.

3. Skeletal Runesmith in Ice Crown - These mobs can be found just north east of ICC and have a spawn timer of around 15 seconds, i counted 21 mobs. Unfortunately though, 3 of these mobs have a knockback/stun which does slow it down a tad.

4. Slags in Hall of lightning - Not really going to elaborate on this since it's already been mentioned several times.

5. Risen Alliance Soldier. (not sure if these would be Risen Horde Soldier for Horde players) These can be found in mid eastern Ice Crown. They are right in front of the wall to Mordrethar. There are around 80-100 mobs that are lightly spread about 3-7 yards apart each. If you just run through one end spamming an AOE ability such as Arcane Explosion, Swipe, Fan of Knives..etc etc you will be able to make cricles around this place non stop since they spawn faster then you can kill them all. The reason this is listed as last is not all classes have a spammable AoE abilitiy on the move. If you are one of these classes, this would probably take the number 2 slot in charm production.

Ive also heard Molten front is a excellent place to farm for heavy armor classes such as Death Knights, Paladins, and Feral tanks. I however was unable to test this as i dont have any of those 3 classes.

Just a side note as well, all the mobs listed do not drop anything but a small amount of silver, so i'd suggest not looting them.

Comment by 501593

When making them you can spam this macro

/use Lovely Charm

Comment by astralcoffin

There are many places to farm those items. Here is a list of my choices and amount of loot per hour:

Unstable Corruption in Throne of Tides

you have to deafeat Lady Naz'jar before getting acces to those mobs
900 Lovely Charm /hour
fast respawn - about 20 seconds for each mob about 30 in zone
you have to kill two of Tainted Sentries and leave two before Ozumat encounter doors
Chosen Zealot in Catherdral of Darkness - (43.20, 78.50) in Icecrown

which have respawn time of 120 seconds,
39k hp each (elite), 40 total in zone
340 gold in vendor trash, 286 frostweave cloth and 25 BoE green items
330 Lovely Charm /hour
they require good dps and some selfhealing
Converted Hero in Icecrown

Many groups in zone.
about 400 Lovely Charm /hour but it mostly depends on how many you will loot.
Slag in Halls of Lightning

14 in zone, 14k hp (non-elite), respawn time about 30 seconds
400 Lovely Charm /hour

Comment by timbazi

They stack 40 and the bracelets sell GOOOD

Comment by 150475

A good place to farm is Maker's Ascent in Uldum. The big groups spawn roughly every minute or so.

**PLEASE NOTE**
People leveling may be going for the daily/achievement "Fire From From The Skyes" / "Help the Bombardier. I'm the Bombardier!" respectively. If you see corpses on fire that means someone is going for the quest. Please be considerate and take off for a few minutes to allow them to finish.

Comment by PoisonSystemX

Just adding my 2 pence into the Test Your Strength/Charm farming issue.

Using the Slag farming place in HoL, I found that you could easily get both sets of items. The thing is the charms get priority over the trophies, but they don't drop all the time, so this means that you will always get at least one of them but never both. Basically, if it doesn't drop the charm, you'll get the credit for the trophy.

Hope this helps :)

Comment by gyussz

Great chance to drop from Crystalline Shardlings in Halls of Stone.

Comment by gardibolt

These Lovely Charms now have "Requires Love is in the Air" on them, while they did not previously. Regrettably, I had several stacks of them in my bank all year and they vanished on me when the event began. So don't bother stockpiling them for next year....they won't last.

Comment by 799837

Easiest method for me was to farm them from Unstable Corruptions. Easily farmed due to the fact that the mobs spawn endlessly every 15 seconds or so, which is just long enough to gather them up and burn them down. Getting anywhere from 7-10 charms per wave, which equates to roughly a 35-40% drop rate. Kind of a drag getting to that point in the dungeon, but the longer you farm them the more worth it the fighting becomes.

Enter Throne of the Tides (Normal) and proceed to first boss. Kill her, then skip the second boss by running around him. Take the left fork, kill the two patrolling larger water elementals, and let the farming begin.

NOTE: Do NOT pull the final two larger Tainted Sentries, as once pulled the little ones stop spawning. If you happen to do so, running out of the instance is easily done....however in my experience, the drop rate is nerfed from 7-10 per group to only 2-3 per group. Unsure as to if that is consistant since it only happened to me once before instance reset at 10 am server time.

Comment by Arcamanel

Not sure if this place has been mentioned, but inside Cathedral of Darkness in Icecrown(Not named on the map, but it's just North-West of ICC) is a great place. Almost instant spawns, but they're level 80 elites, meaning they hit a little harder and take a little longer to kill, but in just 10 minutes of being there I got 63 Lovely Charms. The mobs in there have 37.8k health, they were still relatively easy to farm on my 85 hunter.

I found these wonderfull to get as a hunter!
I found best place to farm in Halls of Lightning, next to Ulduar.
I simple killed Slag's. I went there, and wrote /afk and set my pet to defensive, and 2 ours later i had 350 of them :-).

Comment by 819023

Has anyone actually considered mobs that drop these for level 70s? you're only mentioning lvl 80-85 places as though level 80s+ are the only ones who can collect these. i'm level 70 and really want to know where to get these at my level

Comment by hodrain

A few of the best places I have found -

The mobs that are around the 3 horseman scattered around Icecrown Citadel
Very fast repops

Aldu'thar, go inside where the cultists are, and just do laps, they repop almost immediately.

Comment by 347714

The Lovely Charms are used to turn into Lovely Charm Bracelets (it required Lovely Charm x10 to create one Lovely Charm Bracelet, which in turn are used to complete dailies (which reward Love Tokens), or can be spent to purchase one Love Token at the Lovely Merchant vendor in any major city. You can get Lovely Charm by killing mobs appropriate to your level while you have a Lovely Charm Collector's Kit in your inventory, which you also receive by talking to the Lovely Merchant.

Notably, farming Lovely Charms to turn into Lovely Charm Bracelets, to spend at the Lovely Merchant vendor, is the only path to get Love Tokens that is not constrained by dailies; the faster you get your Lovely Charms, the faster you can accumulate your Lovely Charm Bracelets and the your Love Tokens to buy the specialty holiday items.

The best place to use your Lovely Charm Collector's Kit to collect your Lovely Charms is in Throne of the Tides. Leave the zone set to normal mode to speed the process and reduce any damage taken.

After killing the first two bosses, go back to the entrance and head up the left corridor towards Ozumat. In the hallway there, kill the Unstable Corruption mobs that continuously spawn. They can be AoE killed quickly (only about 3k health!), even solo, by almost any class, and each one that dies has a chance to leave a Lovely Charm. You will have to kill the Tainted Sentry mobs in the front and middle of the hallway first to clear room to kill the Tainted Sentrys. However, be careful not to kill the two Tainted Sentry that are standing at the end of the hallway before Ozumat; once those die, the Unstable Corruptions stop spawning.

Depending on how quickly your class can AoE farm here, you can easily pick up 500+ Lovely Charms per hour; some classes report farming almost 1,000/hour. You will likely need a group to help you kill the first two bosses, though.

(Note: Technically, you only have to kill the first boss, Lady Naz'jar, and activate the control panel, to open up Ozumat's hallway to access the Unstable Corruptions. However, the spawn of the 2nd boss Commander Ulthok blocks your path back to the teleporter, so realistically he will have to be killed as well.)

Comment by MaxTheDragon

How to farm Lovely Charms easily:

The best place in my opinion is The Iron Crucible in the Halls of Lightning.

How to reach this place
1) Go to the Halls of Lightning, near Ulduar in The Storm Peaks on Northrend.
2) Enter the instance and go to The Iron Garrison, which is just beyond the Unyielding Garrison which is where the first boss patrols. You do not have to kill him to reach this room.

The mobs
The Iron Garrison is a small room with a cauldron-like object moving up and down in the center. The Unbound Firestorms near the stairs can be ignored. The mobs of interest are the Slags. There are 14 of them in this room, and they have 15827 hitpoints. They spawn on each of the four sides of the center object, with the majority of them on the sides towards the entrance and exit. If you allow them to roam free, they move towards their own spots scattered across the room so the evenly fill up the place, but the majority spawn on a specific location together.

How to do it
You can either just semi-afk the entrance or exit spawn point, for example with the Paladins Seal of Insight and Retribution Aura (bear in mind you still can't survive indefinately), popping aoe's as you see fit, or you call pull the entire room by walking in a circle around the center object and then aoe-nuke them.

Note: They leave a movement-speed reduction debuff on you upon death, so if you are troubled by this, then pull them first and then kill them afterwards, rather than killing them as you go/pull through the room.

Useful info

They are level 79, so still green for a lvl 85 player. This makes pulling easier, because of the bigger aggro radius.
They respawn very quickly, 30 seconds after death. If you kill them all at the same time, they will respawn at the same time as a pack.
They drop about 1 charm per 3-4 kills. This is a rough estimate. You get roughly 4-6 per respawn. 10 charms per minute, so 600 per hour.
Low hp (15k) so aoe'ed down very easily.
It's in an instance, so no competition!

Enjoy.

Comment by Elfkali

"The Conflagration" in Icecrown. Lots of converted heroes mobbed together, fast respawn.

But, in my case, I had to gather all the 250 Grisly Trophies AND turn it´s quest in Darkmoon Island. Only after that, the charms started dropping.

Comment by Reckish

If you're looking to farm these AND make decent gold at the same time, check out the old favorite of Needlerock Slag/Stonehearth in Deepholm. If you just focus on the packs of 10+ mobs, with an hour of farming, and the potion of treasure finding equipped, I (decently geared fury warrior) was able to pull in:

120 Lovely Charms
80 Embersilk Cloths
12 HypDust/4 Lesser Essences (from D/E greens)
100g in junk

and
25 Tiny Treasure Chests, which contained:
100g
121 Embersilk Cloth
1 green
6 Pyrite Ore
5 Volatile Air
5 Volatile Water
4 Volatile Fire
2 Volatile Earth
1 Volatile Life
5 Elementium Ore

Last hour, I got significantly more valuable stuff, but on my server the chest loot+mob drops from this run sold for about 1100g. My previous hour pulled in 1600g worth. So expect that range.

Again though, if you're JUST farming the charms, this is not the best spot.

Comment by tforce65

The Slag mobs in The Iron Garrison will give you about 250-300 Lovely Charms per hour. No need to run around, just stand in front of first spawn point and slash away. 2 to 4 charms per 10 mobs. Re-spawn is practically instant.

Comment by DELchunkz

I've seen inside Heroic Utgrade Keep you can get quite a bit of Lovely Charm off the trash within there. Just wanted to pass this info on.

Comment by 742619

Best Level 50 farming location is the Lyceum in Blackrock. The mobs are practically one shot-able, if you can bring a healer in with you, I think this would be the top spot.

Comment by Ladris

Easy way a fellow guild member told me. Go to the Molten Front, the Shadow Wardens offer the daily quest Enduring the Heat. Go into the Igneous Depths, stand in a blue rune and wait for a bunch of mobs to surround you then destroy the rune. Continue to do this for all of them, then abandon the quest and repeat.

I have personally confirmed this. I got over 100 Charms in maybe half an hour to an hour, I wasn't really paying attention to the time. Hope this helps someone. :)

Comment by 673059

Referring to If you are on Test Your Strength ..., I would like to post the link to blizzard's blue post confirming the issue and suggesting a workaround, i. e. put the darkmoon guide into the bank while farming Lovely Charms.

Although it sounded like a nice theory/workaroud, swapping the order of thoses items in your inventory does not help.

Even after this week's maintenance server reboots, I still don't get Lovely Charms, when I have both items in my inventory. The issue definitely hasn't been fixed for all. It's unclear why some are affected and some are not. So please stop saying This is not true just because you are personally not affected.

The following taken from Patch 4.3 Hotfixes - February 7 is simply not correct for all.

Love is in the Air

Players are now able to receive Lovely Charms while on the quest "Test Your Strength", when the player's inventory has both the Darkmoon Adventurer's Guide and Lovely Charm Collector's Kit.
Players now have the chance to receive both the Lovely Charm and Grisly Trophy from a single kill.

Even more strange is that I never got Lovely Charms on my priest (EU - Bloodhoof), when I had both items in my inventory. But when I switched to my druid and acquired the Collector's Kit, I got 2 Grisly Trophys and on 3rd kill a Lovely Charm, but not both from a single kill. I switched back to my priest (thinking it got fixed). 40 kills. 40 Grisly Trophys. No Lovely Charms. I switched to my druid. 40 kills. 40 Grisly Trophys. No Lovely Charms.

Note that you can farm Lovely Charms on an alt, convert them to bracelets, wrap them into gift paper and mail them to your main.

Comment by Kaosprophet

While not as fast as some of the other places posted here, the steps Northeast of Ruins of Khintaset in Uldum proved productive for me farming the groups of Schnottz Infantrymen and I'm not the biggest fan of farming.

85 Prot Warrior (Enchanter/Blacksmith)
Time: 1 Hour/ 1 Potion of Treasure Finding

280x Lovely Charm
20x Tiny Treasure Chest
189x Embersilk Cloth
12x Greater Celestial Essence & 35x Hypnotic Dust worth of greens
1x JC Design (green quality)
177g 44s 59c in money drops
53g plus some change worth of vendor greys

While obviously not the best for straight charm farming, its a good place to farm and make a bit of money at the same time.

Comment by Lupen202

Throne of the tides. Right before the last boss. Those little elementals; unstable corruptions. They respawn within seconds of dying, and it's nonstop. Easily can get 160 charms in about 30 minutes; I was farming the slags in Halls of lightning before, but these are definetly better than the slags. You can make twice as many charms in Throne of the tides. You do have to watch out for the elementals stacking debuff though. So bring along some food just in case if you aren't a class with a healing spell so you don't die.

Another downside aside from the debuff, is that you have to solo Lady Naz'jar, or the first boss. I did it as a hunter with a tenacity pet ... It was difficult, but doable. Also have to clear some trash to get a certain gate to open to even get to the first boss, but most of the trash can be skipped, as well as the second boss.

EDIT: Went back there today and went from 550 charms to 800 in about 45 minutes. Just got my lovebird <3

Comment by 828782

If you dont want to farm Lovely Charm from dungeons, one good spot is The Broken Front, Icecrown (68, 60) http://www.wowhead.com/maps?data=210:690619699613678619
Mount up -> walk trough mobs so they all attack you -> dismount and AOE them down -> repeat.
Mobs spawn really fast (i couldnt mount up when i was done cuz mobs spawned around me all the time.)

I also did Darkmoon Faire quest Test Your Strength at the same time. Many ppl have said that you cant collect Grisly Trophy at the same time when you are collecting Lovely Charms. This is not true. Im lvl 85 and able to collect both at the same time.

edit: stop downraiting, this is helpful.

Comment by Astrillian

For you F2P players out there. Here is a great spot. Do your "Crushing the Crown!" Daily, but stay there, the mobs are level 14ish and are easy to farm. I have been getting an average of 350/hour. Granted not as high as the 85's here claim, but still a few hours farming, and you will have all you need for the pet, mount, and achievements.

Horde Daily (lvl 14) Crushing the Crown
Alliance Daily (lvl 14) Crushing the Crown

Comment by littleminx

Any good farming spots/dungeons for a lvl 70 twink?

Comment by 212775

Farming these pretty mindlessly on my MM Hunter in Halls of Lightning, in the slag room. Lay down explosive traps, set pet to defensive, shoot everything. I usually just stay in one spot near the entrance of the room and pick them off.

Probably slower than Throne of the Tides, but the first boss in Halls of Lightning is easier, which is helpful if you're not an extremely well geared 85.

I wasn't timing myself, but I got 400 in about 2 hours.

Comment by Phibi08

For any ranged trying to make this as trivial as possible use an attack nearest enemy target.
/console set targetnearestdistance 40
/cleartarget
/targetenemy
/cast multi-shot
My macro on my hunter, just replace multi-shot with your spell of choice, then just aim yourself in the mob's general direction and push the macro and it will target the mob and use whatever spell in the macro, hope this helps.

Comment by 945667

In 15 min I farmed 78 Lovely Charms in Deepholm killing the Stone Bats. They are neutral (Yellow) so if you are a Boomkin or any range for that matter it will be super easy for you. Just target one in the group and they all will fly down to you & just simply AOE them! I started right before the server was starting to shut down and in 15 min I managed to get 78! Not too bad, considering I done a lvl 85 heroic dungeon this morning and only received 4.

SOMEthing has to have been done to the first boss in Throne. I did this boss extremely easily just before the restarts using no heroism and only Fire Ele totem, and now I have died twice using heroism, Fire and Earth Ele. Maybe it was something like a TINY damage upgrade to the boss or similar, but I just can't get past her now. Still on normal mode.

Farming Lovely Charms as Rogue

800-900 Charms/Hour

Only requires the push(spam) of one button

I have been farming Unstable Corruption in the Throne of the Tides Normal mode as a rogue.
Ive been using a high survival spec with Subtlety as base.

Gear requirement isnt that high i guess i manage to pull this off with a itemlvl of 377 and 6855 each tick with Recuperate.

Ive been using this setup for 2 & ½ hour straight now, no deaths and pretty much as meny charms as doing this the old fashion way.

Spec:

http://www.wowhead.com/talent#fbhbZbZfG0cdhIoGo:Zd
You can use pretty much anything you want as long as it includes the Key talents.

Macro

/startattack
/cast Fan of Knives

Glyphs

Charred Glyph

Key talents:

Elusiveness

Fleet Footed

How to:

Enter Throne of Tides on Normal difficulty, skip all trash before 1 boss, kill first boss (its quite hard to solo as rogue, get help if needed, i did) then use the Defense system console. Now go back and take enter the left hallway (Map point of view) with the farm spot, clear the 2 Tainted sentry patrolling the spawn area (You can skip the first one if you want) Remember do NOT to kill the other 2 standing guard by the gate this will stop the respawn of Unstable Corruption.

Target one of the Tainted sentrys by the gate then use Premeditation walk over to the farm spot and spam Fan of Knives till you have got 5 combo points now pop Recuperate, then take position some were you wont be hit in the back, Iam standing by the disc formed seaweed plant (located at the side with the window), having my back turned against it. Now just keep spamming and spamming the Fan of Knives macro , Recuperate will refresh with each kill.

Enjoy!

Notes.

The Tainted sentrys will respawn at some point and might kill you. (3 hours)?

You might die a few times (or near) before you find a good position.

Make sure you have something to entertain you (im watching TV while doing it ) or you probably go crazy, i know i would.

Please dont be to judgmental, this is my first post.

I spent quite a bit of time at Needlerock Slag and found that the troggs you'd usually farm while using the Potion of Treasure Finding also drop Lovely Charms at a pretty decent rate.

Whether you are farming for these or Darkmoon "grisly trophies", I have found that the best place to go if you are level 85 is in icecrown in the NW corner of the Vile Hold..there is a group of DK initiates, a few DK adepts and their master Baelok, rider of blood..everything besides him drops quick and he is only 80 elite so he dies relatively quick as well..I can usually pull 7 to 10 charms otta this little mob at a time as its respawn time is like 2 mins...I worked it for half an hour and left with more than 200 charms..There might be better places but certainly none easier for the payout than here...gl all

Comment by Ozlem

If you're a lowbie (20-29) chasing Swift Lovebird (or all items ASAP) and you honestly want to farm Lovely Charm to turn them into Lovely Charm Bracelet in one sitting so you can trade them for Love Token head over to Dawning Woods Catacombs which lie beneath the Raven Hill Cemetery in Duskwood.

There are zombies, loads and loads of zombies and they re spawn crazy fast.

If you start low 20s you'll get enough charms to convert, then trade, to buy all event vendor items from a solid days grind (aprox. 6hrs with AoE, 7+hrs without AoEs.) Be aware that if you start mid 20s or high 20s you won't get as many Lovely Charm because the XP gained will have you leveling fast and eventually the mobs grey out. Also don't wear any heirlooms because the speed XP is your enemy here.

Edge your way into the catacombs as it's easy to pull 5+ mobs in one go. Not for the feint hearted or squishies who aren't confident in their CC skills.

**don't forget to have Lovely Charm Collector's Kit on you **

Comment by coldfyre

This has been my way of collecting charms so far.

Since I do not have any 85s on the server I play on (70 twinks), I decided to put my cloth caster BoAs to good use.
I made a level 1 Human Mage and gave it full BoAs (minus ring because I use it on the druid I'm leveling) and proceeded to Stormwind to cap my experience. After I capped myself (do this between level 1 and 4 to get charms), I proceeded to start the daily quest that gives you the charm box. I then hearthed back to the human starting area and began farming the level 1 to 2 mobs. They respawn very quickly and after two hours of farming I ended up with 301 charms.

This is not the fastest way, but it is a decent way if you have BoAs or do not have 85s on the realm you are farming on.

Comment by Sarmeena

An easy but slow way to collect these at 85 is to portal to hyjal and farm the elementals - they have 30(ish)k health and also drop volatile earth which is handy for the AH. Also if you are a prolific looter and miner -> there is some gold to be made here too :)

Comment by 858129

Throne of Tides
is THE place to go, the Unstable Corruptions have barely no health at all 3095 to be exact and spawn very quickly (leave the 2 sentry at the end door alone)
I went there with my ilvl 367 feral offspec druid without problems,

Normal Mode ONLY

As for the spirit mender trash groups, I just focused on one of them at a time, bash and stun as much as possible, it eventually dies then you can focus on the second one,

Boss: stay in Bear form, use Demoralizing Roar and Faerie Fire, Skull Bash her to interrupt her casts. When she becomes immune and 3 adds spawn use Demoralizing Roar on them and kill the casters FIRST. The Melee add might still be alive when the boss gets out of the immune state, but thats ok, just finish him and continue on the boss,
It's important to get out of her Geyser, since you are the only player it will spawn under your feet every single time. If you do get hit by a geyser dont panic, just switch to cat to take less damage on the fall.

Remember your cooldowns, Survival Instinct, Barkskin and Berserk

Safe Frenzied Regeneration for emergencies

WARNING! Do not leave to turn in Charms until you absolutely have to, the Dungeon will reset on its own if you hearth to Orgrimmar!

ps. Go in there with your armour freshly repaired, a few hours into farming and you might need to go repair

Comment by 755511

What's best recommended for a mid level 40 Worgen Warlock? Also, is it true you have to get the killing blow to get the charm; and that if your demon does it, no charm? I'd really like to know!

Comment by 946322

The best spot that I've found this far is at 59, 74 at The Vile Hold in Icecrown. The mobs respond very rapidly.

Comment by Brutalgnome

60 Stacks just took me 4 1/2 hours. Abyssal Breach. Going to bed it's 4am, lol.

Comment by Darkchilx

Bottom Right of the Fleshwerks in Icecrown theres a platform with unlimated mobs that spawn one after another. Have fun.

Comment by cechjakpoleno

If you hate clickng charms and changing them to love tokens as I do, you can use this macro with vendor windov open to create Bracelet and instantly exchange it for love token.
#show Lovely Charm

Comment by selvin

Note that hunters have a very easy time getting charms, as you don't actually have to do damage, even when it's just your pet doing damage you will still get charms. This makes abyssal halls in Throne of Tides even better. You can almost afk and still get charms if your pet is parked in the right place, as it will agro the unstable corruptions on it's own, and when in assist mode, it will kill any attacking you. If you pick the right spot to place the pet it will bounce between that spot and you agroing mobs in the area between it's "spot" as it runs to defend you. As long as you pick a spot where the pet won't agro too many, and you agro too many, you shouldn't get overwhelmed. Personally I found the sweet spot to be me to stand ~5 yards south of the pool, and then for the pet to stand half way up the pool next to the clam/rock on the ground. It will look like there's several groups that won't get pulled by your pet above the water pool, but they will pat down and aggro onto your pet eventually.

Obviously BM is the best spec for this as you and your pet will heal continuously, and can be specced to be much tankier against the shadow dot, which is the only dangerous thing as it stacks continuously as long as it's getting attacked by the unstable corruptions, but it's likely that any hunter (or lock for that matter) could get it to work pretty well. A tenacity pet worked best, as it has aoe damage with it's thunderstomp, but my tenacity pet (with no damage talents) was one shotting the corruptions anyway with his melee attack, so really only matters for preventing you from getting attacked. If you are not BM however you will need to pay more attention, as my health would semi-rarely go down to 80% as my pet worked his way through the mobs, but due to spirit link would go back up 100%. Out of combat regeneration will be pretty limited as your pet should be pretty constantly attacking corruptions if the two of you are parked in the right places.

I did have a problem with the "move to" spot I had picked going away. I seemed to have particular trouble if I told my pet to stand inside the pool, but the bug wasn't consistent. Additionally sometimes the corruptions wouldn't aggro due to proximity to my pet sometimes, but eventually they will, and that's all you need.

This isn't the fastest method of getting charms (as you aoeing will kill the corruptions much faster, and thus have more respawn total per hour), I was getting around 200/hour, but if you are like me and find getting charms incredibly boring, it is the best method, as you can chat with guildies, watch a movie, etc while barely paying attention to the game, and your pet doing it's own thing.

If you're willing to glance at your health every once in awhile you can stand in the bottom side of the pool and have your pet stand at the top. Your pet will aggro the corruptions more often, so the spawn rate will increase but you won't be self sustaining in your health, so you'll have to find a way to heal every once in awhile (I used the 8 million lifegiving seeds I had), but this increased the rate of charm collection by quite a bit.

Comment by DragonsXPS

As of February 7th blizzard has hot-fixed the problem were the Lovely Charms would not drop until the Darkmoon Faire quest Test Your Strength. This is no longer the case you can now get both, and furthermore, don't get discouraged if it seems that you are just getting Grisly Trophies, just keep in mind that the Lovely Charms have a lower drop rate that the Grisly Trophies because on my lvl 85 Protection Paladin I am able to get both (mostly Grisly Trophies).

For those who choose to complain that its not true and what not, thats RNG for you.

Comment by 883276

I have found that the Slags in Halls of Lightening are the best for farming these Charms. As an 85 Mage it was easy to get to them, just avoided the boss walking round the outside and killed the trash. Once at the room I ran round , pulled all the Slags and used Arcane Explosion until dead. Rinse and repeat.

I found I was getting anywhere between 3-8 charms per pull. Plus its better to farm here as there is no one else to take your kills and disturb you.

Comment by ghost9er9er9

I haven't seen anyone post it so here it goes.
Best place to farm with NO COMPETITION is Alterac Valley.
The mines have a large amount of low health troggs or our candle vermin friends. The other benefits of being in the battleground also make it much more appealing. I tried grinding them out in Icecrown at the runesmiths and death knights but there was a shadow priest who very heatedly argued that it was HIS spot. I'd just completely avoid the competition all together and go to AV. Happy Farming!

Comment by beetfield

If you've not completed the quest chains in Icecrown and Storm Peaks, you can gather quite a few of these in the course of doing so at level 85.

Comment by pynkskyn

The very best place I've found so far is Malykriss: The Vile Hold in Icecrown. The Converted Heroes are nice, but EVERYONE farms there. In Malykriss, just go to the forge area with the skeletons and vrykul, and go nuts. The skeletons spawn within a minute of dying, without being looted. Awesome, plus there's probably not going to be any competition for kills.
edit: Unlike a lot of Icecrown, I *think* these mobs aren't phased, and visible no matter how many of the quests you've done. Some of the farming areas here are only viable if you're in the right phase--a guildie's farm place at the Fleshwerks was full of friendly (and kill-stealing) NPCs to me. Just something to keep in mind if you're going to farm in NR.

Comment by Ethlin

I got a lot of these (Like around 160) on my weekly Naxx solo run. Naxx has a lot of (Easy) trash that drop it, and on some boss fights the adds drop it (Maexxna spiderlings drop them, Noth skeletons do not drop them, I don't remember about Gothik's or KTs adds). EDIT: All of KTs adds drop them (Not sure about the guardians, but it's not like anyone kills them), and only the knights and riders of Gothik's do, the trainees don't.

5-8 stacks of frostweave.
Ton's of DE mats (Just group with an enchanter when you make a raid group).
Lot's of gold off the bosses themselves (I think about 125-140G each).
A fair amount of gold from vendor junk (Generally 100-200G).
And a nice atmosphere (purely opinion here though).

It ends up being about 2000G + Whatever the DE mats/cloth sells for on the AH + Your 160ish lovely charms.

So not the best if you are purely going for large amounts of these very fast (Go Throne of Tides or Halls of Lightning) , but if you are like me and enjoy soloing outdated content, then give it a go.

Comment by Zoeteklem

Here is a fast outline to eliminate any confusion about these Charms/Bracelets, information below is a quick need-to-know before you start your grinding. I wont write about "where the best place is.." frankly because it will change from year to year and your toon level, etc...

Information below is good regardless what patch we are on... Enjoy!

You have to have Lovely Charm Collector's Kit to collect Lovely Charm and make Lovely Charm Bracelet.
Kwee Q Peddlefee starts the quest to get Lovely Charm Collector's Kit, right now each faction's capital city has one (4 per faction).
Kwee Q Peddlefees quests are a repeatable daily quest. Awards Love Token x5 and a card that has a buff on it (good for raids and questing).
Each repeatable quest is turned in to their own respectable faction leader: A Gift For the...
Lovely Charm x10 turns into one Lovely Charm Bracelet, currently there is no limit to how many of these you can make (bag space permitting).
Lovely Charm Bracelet is not stackable, so be bag ready before you start grinding for them. Lovely Charm is stackable to 40.
You don't ever have to "loot" anything to get Lovely Charm, but you do have to have bag space. They fall into your bag automatically after the baddie dies.
The baddie has to be AT LEAST green for you to receive a charm ~~(within 5 levels of your level)~~.
You can turn in one Lovely Charm Bracelet for one Love Token from any of the Lovely Merchants in each capital city.
Lovely Charm Collector's Kit is only around during Love is in the Air and can safely be farmed while on Test Your Strength (as of 02/07/12).
You can get achievement Nation of Adoration by making Lovely Charm Bracelet four times (Lovely Charm Bracelet x40 needed).
Although Lovely Charm is bind on pick up, Lovely Charm Bracelet can be gifted using a Red Ribboned Wrapping Paper of your choice and mailed to alts, yourself, etc... (quick list: Wrapping Paper...) Very handy if you are grinding for the Swift Lovebird mount.
For more information on this holiday event, refer to Wowhead's Love is in the Air Guide on all other references.

Comment by Ambisextrous

Slag in Halls of Lightning are really quick and easy to farm especially if you're not that geared as 85, or you're farming on an alt.

These are the molten guys between the first and second boss. They have a whopping 16k health and a rapid respawn rate.

The drop rate on these is ridiculously high. Usually getting about 4-6 each room pull.

Comment by 946547

Slags in the Halls of Lighting works great for me. Just remember to bring some food.

Comment by 513967

I have to agree Halls of lightening n the Iron Crucible is THE best place cause it you and only you and they respawn.
Retr Pally 85. Just used divine storm over and over and they bow down....Smiles

Pulling huge mobs seem to get less charms than pulling 2-3 at a time.

Comment by AnakarisRex

The Iron Crucible in the Halls of Lightning is THE place. As mentioned here, the slags respawn quickly and continuously. You can do this easily even without AoE. I am an 85 rogue (31-2-8) and I can sit there with Recuperation and Slice and Dice constantly up. The rotation is Mutilate-Rupture-Mutilate and the Slags drop like flies one at a time. Deadly Momentum give the first Multilate a double crit, and with Rupture up when they die my energy refills for the next. It's a great cycle over and over.

Comment by rynoski

Easy cheesy - go to icecrown fleshworks. Find the bridge with the risen soldiers. Drop rate is about 33% or roughly 1 of every 3rd or 4th kill. Respawn fast. Earn some silver for your troubles. Charming! No dungeons required.

Comment by Adorendo

Is anyone having problems picking up charms? I am not getting any at all... and waiting for response from GM on ticket, but you know how that is. Could be next week before I hear anything.

Comment by Alteir

The area with the Slags in Halls of Lightning is, for a MM hunter, the best place in the entire game. Respawns incredibly fast, takes no more than 1 second to kill in LFR/Valor vendor gear and with and 1 point in you can spam Multi-Shot ad infinitum. In just 30 minutes I have racked up 272 charms.

Comment by JeroStoney

I didn't see it mentioned (though I may have overlooked with the numerous posts), but if you're farming these in mass quantities, if you stack haste, and use haste trinkets, or spells that increase your haste (like Heroism), it effects the speed in which it takes to create a Lovely Charm Bracelet. It helps a little bit speeding up the long, boring process when you're trying to clean out your inventory of about 2000 Charms.

Comment by Condehuntudus

For those low levels and Alt twinks! i've found the best place to farm this things... the place where you must kill the crown thugs and destroy the caravan is a good place to farm if you are a lvl 18-21 twink, it helped me alot for getting the exact number of charms for the entire event, it took me one day, or like... 2 hours, anyways its the best spot for 18-21 lvl twinks, hope this info helps :D

Comment by Damonra

A good place to get these in Icecrown is at 55.79, 79.54 (TomTom coordinates).

For those without coordinates, look at the southern part of that zone, by ICC. Its just to the right of the center peaks. When you zone in, look for a DK NPC named Rokir. He'll be on a rise surrounded by alot of Death Kight Adept(s).

If you're a warlock, target him with Seed of Corruption. When he runs toward you, he'll pull the rest of the mob, and the Seed will kill or harm many of them as he charges you. You'll still have to fight them, but at lvl 85 with a 4-piece tier set, its an easy kill.

This mob has been droping about 7 charms per mob, and the respawn rate is fast. Put it this way, many times they respawn before I can loot the entire dead mob at my feet.

One word of caution. They tend to send you flying backwards. If you're not careful, they'll send you over the ledge to your death. Even with 151K health.

Comment by StriderRyu

As a 70 twink, I recommend staying away from The Opening of the Dark Portal. My group completed the dungeon and killed a lot of the wildlife and I didn't receive one charm. This was a heroic dungeon so I'm betting the normal won't be any better.

Comment by Lahtel

Soloed 1st boss in Throne of the Tides as a 385 SV Hunter w/ turtle. Fight was fairly easy, since I am an engineer and utilized the Healing injector on gloves and Absorption shield from belt tinker....Best method I found for farming the charms on the Unstable Corruptions, would be to just post up in the middle of the hallway where they spawn most, switch to BM, bring out spirit beast, then set explosive trap and spirit mend yourself every cooldown. Clicking those two abilities every 30 seconds was way easier then spamming multi-shot. Oh and don't forget to always have Aspect of the Wild on, as you will be taking Nature damage from the Corruptions. I was able to clear the hall (minus the 2 big mobs at the end, don't kill those) before they re-spawned, which was every time Explosive trap reset. I ended up netting 600+ charms per hour. Good Luck! Hope this helps.

Comment by Rakenaid

I am able to confirm that the Unstable Corruption in Throne of the Tides is by far the easiest place to farm Lovely Charm. I was able to farm 2700 Lovely Charm in 4:15 the first run, and 2700 in 4:30 the second run.

As of 2/12/2014 Unstable Corruption within Throne of the Tides will no longer grant you Lovely Charm!

However, there is a new spot to farm Lovely Charm from Hopling and Bopper within Stormstout Brewery

The Strategy:

For the love of all things (no pun intended) don't forget to get a Lovely Charm Collector's Kit prior to starting this farm!

You will need to clear your way to Ook-Ook by killing the two Sodden Hozen Brawler and the three Inflamed Hozen Brawler. Note that these Inflamed Hozen Brawler can inflict Fiery Illusion which may be troublesome for casters.

You will have to kill a total of 40 Hozen before Ook-Ook will spawn. Use Rolling Barrel which will deal Brew Explosion to whatever you crash into, thus significantly speeding up this process.

Once Ook-Ook spawns go ham on him. Watch out for his frontal Ground Pound which is avoidable by simple moving out from the front of him. He also stacks Going Bananas so down him as quickly as possible.

After downing Ook-Ook proceed to the stairs where you will find Hopling, Bopper and occassionally a Hopper. You can stand at the base of the steps (the area right out side of Ook-Ook's crashed party and farm them. Countless Lovely Charm from these little guys and they are easy to down.

Hopper uses Explosive Brew which could be a minor setback for casters however they are not as common as the Hopling and Bopper

Should you hapen to get overwhelmed with Hopling's and Bopper's just Smash! them by using a Big Ol' Hammer to send them flying to the heavens. However doing this will not grant any Lovely Charm.

If you engage Hoptallus this will cease the endless spawn of Hopling and Bopper.

Be prepared for a hefty repair bill. Roughly 1% armor degradation per minute farming here. Jeeves would be handy, but nonetheless you can head to town to repair and convert Lovely Charm to Lovely Charm Bracelet and turn them in for Love Token which stack up to 250.

I am currently able to solo and farm this on my 90 Rogue using Fan of Knives and Crimson Tempest while keeping up via .

10 minutes = 100 Lovely Charm
30 minutes = 300 Lovely Charm

Much better rate than from Unstable Corruption!

I will continue to update this as I farm more information.

Comment by 196703

After farming 3 of these so-called Swift Lovebirds I feel safe enough to tell u guys farming Stone Bats in Deepholm is worth it (at least as an Elemental Shaman).

Start at around 36,63 (above Master's Gate on the map) and work your way up to 47,25 (beneath the Pale Roost), there should be around 2 or 3 clutches of bats per stone slab and when you finish head down and start over.

(of course killing the occasional group of Jaspertip Swarmers makes a nice extra income on Charms aswell)

Hope it helps, good luck!

Comment by IndigloRaver

Place I've discovered for people who don't want to mass farm via an instance (whether they haven't unlocked Vashj'ir for the water breathing or not, like a couple of my chars haven't - they leveled in Hyjal, and only one of my 85's is my achiev toon), and are tired of dealing with the mass of people farming Converted Heros in Icecrown.

Deepholm has an area close to Stonehearth / Needlerock Slag where several groups of Earthen are fighting large groups of Troggs.

Going out to the area past Stonehearth itself (towards the area where you do the Catapault quest after doing the escort to kill the droves of elites swarming out and into a frontal line of Earthen siege weapons), you can AOE the groups of Troggs down, with help from the Earthen themselves - All the Troggs are level 82-83, so they count for level 85 characters.

I farm them on my Frost DK, and can normally take them down with 3-4 Howling Blast chains (with the 2pc T13 Rime 2x proc). They're also a ridiculous supply of some nice 79-83 greens/blues and cloth, and a good chunk of change - everyone knows how much the level 79ish Cata greens go for on most server's AH's.

However - the Darkmoon Faire quest Testing Your Strength for the Grisly Trophies can no longer be collected with the charms if you are attempting to do both here at the same time. You have to drop the one DMF quest in order to collect the charms, otherwise only the trophies drop, no charms :<.

Comment by onegr8om

I can confirm that the SLAGS in Halls of Lightning are a very easy and beneficial farm! I got 290 Lovely Charms in exactly ONE HOUR. I also just saw that the Swift Lovebirds are selling for 12k on Blackrock server at the moment! If you can farm enough and you can buy more than one, you could make out very nicely. Good luck and happy farming!

Comment by vizoere

Damonra's post for the spot in Icecrown works well for a Fire Mage (I'm Item Level 350).

If you look at the platform as the partial edge of a clock, I'm standing at about 10:00, 5 yards inside the edge of the skull walkway, but far enough away so no mobs agro. Using Arcane Brilliance (or Dalaran Brilliance) and Frost Armor, target Rokir, hit your Mana Shield, hit him with pyroblast, fireball, Living Bomb, Combustion, Fireball. By the time you've cast all that, most of the mobs will have gotten to you, so do Blast Wave, Blizzard. If there are any left alive, one more shot of Flamestrike should finish them off. Then hit Flamestrike again on any of the mobs that didn't pull when Rokir came over. You'll get a big pile of bodies that's easy to loot, and I get between 4 and 10 charms. Quick heal with some Mana Cakes and go again when they respawn and Combustion cools down. 2-3 minutes per pull. Shouldn't need to move at all.

Oh, and you should have Rokir down before he has a chance to summon his ghoulies, so you don't have to worry about getting knocked off the side of the platform.

Comment by Linni

Everyone mentioned the water elementals in Throne of the Tides (non-heroic). While I do admit they die quickly and I did get quite a few charms I, personally, felt it was a total pain in the A$$ to get to this area just to farm charms. I had to have someone help me kill the 1st boss and there are numerous adds to go through or try to get around unseen just to get to the boss. Once all that was done, I wasn't too impressed with how many charms I recieved after all the work to get there. And if you log/leave and want to go back you have to get help again (at least if you're a clothie like me). If there wasn't so much involved to get to that area I would say its great! But the mobs in the ICC area (there is a hall real close to horror gate that has fast respawns) or Halls of Lightening (the slags) are much easier to get to.

Comment by 947651

So for the past couple of days since the event started I have been farming on 'Stone Bats' in Deepholm and I was getting a fairly good haul off of them, but then today I am doing the same as I have been, and I havn't gotten a single charm to drop today, was even getting them off of 'Jaspertip Ravagers', but not anymore. What's the deal? Is this a bug? Any other suggestions that don't involve dungeons and instances? When all of this was failing to produce I went and started killing 'Slags' in the Hall of Lighting but they didnt drop any either, whats going on?

Comment by 947681

I am farming them pretty regularly at Icecrown through the Converted Heroes. I have gotten 60 through the course of one commercial free episode of Community. This was while chatting, stopping to loot corpses, and staying out of the way of a goblin who was also farming them, so the drop rate isn't that bad considering.

You can also farm these in Deepholm at Stonehearth where the rock dwarves are fighting the Troggs. I would suggest farming them from any mob that is easy for you to kill in groups, that would also still give honor/experience.

For those that do not know, these do not drop like normal loot. You are awarded them as you kill the mobs. I did not figure this out for nearly an hour and felt like a total newb when I finally figured it out.

Hope this helps.

Happy Hunting.

Comment by 886449

Started farming at Throne of the Tides. In 30 minutes straight, I have accumulated 214 which averages to about 7 per minute. This was done very quickly with no interruptions.

30 minutes later, I collected 245 more.

30 minutes later, 253 more.

30 minutes later and after my friend came back from afk at the 15 minute mark i got 233.

Total = 945

Wanted to also add that my friend (who was afk for 1 hr 45 min/2 hours and hit 'follow') got a total of 934.

So we got a total of 1879 in 2 hours straight farming while just one of us was doing all the work.

Comment by Schnoodledorfer

People in the 60s (particularly Druids) should probably consider farming Mudfin Frenzies. They aggro in groups of 4 and it's easy to get 3 or 4 groups on you simultaneously, then AOE them down. Each fish seemed to have a normal mob's chance of triggering a lucky charm. Underwater breathing potions would be helpful in most cases, of course. I didn't have any competition, probably because they basically only drop Unidentified Plant Parts (useful for Cenarion Expedition rep, but not otherwise) and lots of trash.

While playing around, I found out that I could collect charms when I killed them in a variety of ways that didn't leave them lootable, including using only Thorns, Magma Totem or Explosive Trap (different characters). In those experiments, they died close to me. As far as I can tell, the cutoff seems to be 40 yards. If a mob wandered further away than that while I was casting a spell to one-shot them, I didn't seem to get any charms.

My hunter didn't get any charms if he didn't create any aggro, even if the hunter was moved very close before the kill. That seems to contradict some of the previous AFK comments, so I tested going AFK. If I put the pet where Mudfin Frenzies came close to shore and put the farmer nearby on land, but out of aggro range, I got no drops. If I put the hunter in the water, but the pet on land, I did. (You won't farm many Frenzies while AFK - I was just testing.)

Comment by Duskryn

From my own personal experience, the Lovely Charms seem to be SPLIT AMONG THE GROUP! My apologies for the caps but I must emphasize that it is true (to me).

While I have no "solid" evidence that the Lovely Charms are split among group members, I do have something that makes me believe 100% that they are shared:

I farmed Unstable Corruptions at Throne of the Tides with 1 other person in my group. It was my boyfriend's character, logged in on the computer next to my own. Though he was asleep, I was able to keep him logged in and track the progress of the lovely charms accumulated. I farmed for a while (definitely more than an hour), and noticed that my first empty bag (22 slot) and his first empty bag (22 slot) were a little past half full - but not near full at all.

The next day, I returned to the location to farm again, this time by myself. I was able to fill a 22 slot bag in 1 hour. Same spot, same farming technique.

Because of this, I am led to believe that the charm procs, while independent between group members, are still shared among the group in some way. Meaning when you kill a mob, you can both get charms, or neither get charms, or one of you can get a charm and the other may not, but when it boils down to the final number, it will be roughly split between group members.

TL;DR:
- Farmed Throne for 1 hour with 1 group member - Half a bag + a few stacks
- Viewed group member's inventory (same room) - Had almost the same amount of stacks as me
- Farmed Throne for 1 hour with NO group member - Full bag (22 slot)
- This is just my individual experience. I have no idea how it truly works.

Just gotten about 1000 of these farming the Unstable Corruption in Throne of the Tides. By far the best spot.

Comment by DoraTE

If you have a level 1 twink you can farm any starting area for these. Not as fast as some of the other suggestions, but very easy.

Comment by ADneo

130 Charms every 10min on average in Throne of Tides, farming as i type this.

Comment by 902925

I found it super easy in icecrown those fields with the converted soldiers all lined in a row, as a 85 hunter I would just stand back and multi shot 2x's and sometimes would pick up 6 charm's at once it was very easy and I did it in about 15-20 mins....happy hunting!

Comment by frostitty

IMO the best place to farm this is in Well of Eternity. On the last boss, Mannoroth, he will start spawning an endless wave of demons and you will turn into a black Illidain form which does aoe damage and % per second heal. Just stop dpsing the boss and stand there while your aoe dpsing rapes the adds. and your healer doesnt even have to do anything but stand there and dps with you.

Comment by Reckish

Just found a spot that would be amazing for anyone who has a level 64-73, possibly the best in the game.

To the left of Utgarde keep are the Utgarde Catacombs, and at the bottom (same location as the Devouring Maggots for the Pest Control achieve) is a room full of Decomposing Ghouls. There are about 100 ghouls up at the start, and while I didn't count and don't have any respawn info, as an 85, I couldn't clear the room to LESS than ~50 mobs. Throne of the tides, eat your heart out.

I'll submit a picture.

Comment by Nakenroffe

belive it or not killing Sapfly actually gives you charms.

Sapfly is a mob that you can find in Dread Wastes along some trees along the wall who runs down the eastern Dread Wastes.

Ppl who have done the Klaxxi Daily quests know exactly what they are

Comment by spdabbs

A great place to farm these at level 90 is from the Snagtooth Pesterling packs around Pang's Stead. This is to the Northeast of Valley of the Four Winds - 82,20

Comment by Erogar

A great place to farm Lovely Charms is in Stormstout Brewery. Enter the dungeon on Normal difficulty, then kill the first boss and walk further until you're just before the room where 2nd boss is. Just stand there and kill the hoplings. You should be able to get about 800 charms per hour

Comment by schwaci

Best place to farm this in Mists of Pandaria, patch 5.1 as a "level 90" if you can solo the first boss in Stormstout Brewery on Normal mode is the door just before the second boss.
You defeat first boss, after that you go up and just before exiting the door which leads to second boss you stop in the door so no mobs will pass you and AoE them all night long.
There are 3 kind of mobs: Hopper with 316k HP (there are not that much spawning), Bopper with 158k HP (same here, not that much spawning) and finally, Hopling 79k HP (there are a lot of this kind and they are spawning really fast which is very good for you).
Try to stand in the door and AoE them, but watch out not to go outside or boss will spawn and if you kill boss mobs will stop spawning.
I managed to get around 200 Lovely Charms in about 20 minutes as a Guardian Druid, level 90 (55 million damage done, around 50k DPS). I don't know if you can solo the first boss as a DPS, but if not it is still ok if you 2 man it, because mobs will spawn constantly.
So in my oppinion this is definitely the best farming spot in Mists of Pandaria if you can pass the first boss.
Hope this helps you guys out there.
Cheers, Schwaci!

Edit: Do NOT use hammers for killing mobs or you won't get Love Charms! (Forgot about this. Thanks for Rabbitly on reminding me about it!)

Comment by Shoqq

In 2013(MoP) best way is to go Brewery NHC ( before you engage the first boss then reset ) or Spirit - Ancient Spirit Farming/Grinding whatever.

Comment by scolonyix

The best place i have found is at The Fleshwerks, in Northrend, there i killed Risen Soldier, they got around 3,8k hp. I farmed there with an lvl 85 warrior, and didnt have any problems, they do almost no damage at us, and is killed on the first hit.

I farmed Lovely Charm for 20 mins, and ended up with 124 Lovely Charm.

This is soloable, and can be done by every class i guess, but try to be lvl 85 or maybe lower, so u can get the Lovely Charm.

Have fun, and good luck from me

Scolonyix :)

Comment by Glaucus

While the stormstout brewery might be a good place to farm this, personally the Obilisk of the two moons in Uldum is far better. At lvl 90 you can destroy those armies walking there with ease, every group giving about 2-5 lovely charms and fast resapwn rate.

Comment by Alfa

5.1 patch, heroic Throne of Tides. Confirmed to work for farming the slimes again

Happy farming

Comment by cyz0r

i tried the throne of the tides farming spot and the one in icecrown at cords 56, 79 and both are patched i guess. no charms tried for about 10 mins each spot no charms. this is in patch 5.1 landfall.

Comment by Duxjan

Beware: seems like if ya got Darkmoon quest Test your Strength on, the droprate for Lovely Charms is awfully low.

Didn't get any on yellow mobs with that DMF quest up. Dropped the quest: almost 90% drop for the charms.

Just an advice ;)

EDIT: forgot to mention: if you are gonna drop the Darkmoon Faire Quest, all Grisly Trophy you gathered, will be lost!

Comment by newti

Best place to farm this at 90 i believe is Deepholm

Find the Stone bats and swarmers @ 35,50 and aoe

13 in 2 minutes

Fast Respawn

Comment by Paws39

As someone who can't solo Stormstout Brewery, that was definitely not an option, so I have tried a couple of other places. The technicians in Uldum where you do the first quest can be one shot, and I assume not matter your level you could do this (maybe not one shot, but they should go down with ease). They spawn quickly, and even with other players around, you should be able to collect charms quickly. However when I first started collecting charms, there was a group of alliance taking down all Horde, so that made it a little tough on someone like me who can't PVP to save their life. In the meantime I went to Ruins Rise, just east of Gua-Lai Halls in Eternal Blossoms. You can farm the Stonebark Tricksters there, provided the daily quest is up that spawns them, and you can also farm the Sky Shards at the same time.
Someone mentioned Pang's Stead which was good, as the Snagtooth Pesterlings go down so quickly. You can just AoE a pack, get your charm/s and move on. I also tried The Heartland in Four Winds, and though the rabbits (forgotten what they're called) take a little longer to take down compared to the pesterlings at Pang's, there are quite a few of them around, so you can just keep moving, taking them down without stopping.
Earlier I did the Darkmoon Faire quest for the Grizzly Trophies, and found that the Molten Front in Hyjal was a great place to farm these, so I imagine it could also be a place to try for the charms. Again the mobs go down with ease at level 90, they re-spawn quickly, and now that most players are done with the dailies, there's a good chance you will have them all to yourself

Comment by jujubeat

A good spot for these charms is the Molten Front in the Firelands daily area. The mobs there spawn and attack constantly and are level 85 (green for lvl 90 players). They have low amounts of health so they shouldn't pose a threat.

However, this state of things applies ONLY to characters who are on the first part of Firelands dailies, where you have to collect your first 150 Marks of the World Tree. I say only as I haven't finished the whole unlocking of the place, so I do not know how this looks, when you have finished the daily grind in that area.

Hope this helps.

Comment by 755075

EDIT: Hotfixed. NO LONGER WORKS!

The best place to farm those items in mists of pandaria, is in the cave of Skiggit in the Valley of the Four Winds.
In 15 minutes, I got about 500 Lovely Charms.

I made a quick tutorial on youtube. Click.

Comment by 701721

Thunderfoot fields is great for farming these @ level 90. The virmen are easy to kill, have a good respawn rate.

Comment by 102945

Tiny Mutated Silkmoth

Comment by sozboss

For Love is in the air 2013

Farm Shek'Zeer Swarmborn
They spawn in packs of 3, Only have 100k hp and there are ALOT of them, They are at The Cluthes Of Shek'Zeer in The Dread Wastes.

Comment by 1089820

IN MIST OF PANDARIA: (lvl 90 only )
if you are level 85-86 (go normal throne of tides)

AS a hunter go to Throne of the Tides (HC)
step 1: kill the first boss
step 2: skip second boss and take portal
step 3: take the way to last boss (left) kill the 2 first elite mobs(big ones) and let the 2 left be or the small ones wont spawn.
stap 4 stand in middle of spawn spot with spirit bond spec, and prefer a tank spirit beast.

Then you can afk farm lovely charms !:D
happy farming guys!

Comment by 1078184

Two very good places to farm these in Pandaria.

The small areas of Sha along the Burlap trail in Kun-lai Summit. Low health, fast respawns and come in groups of 5-10.

Terrace of Ten Thunders in the Jade Forest. Constant stream of mobs. 24k health, come about 3 at a time.

Comment by Hellequin

Im not sure if killing Unstable Corruption in ToT works anymore. I was killing those and i didn't get any charms. A very fast way to get charms is to kill Unleashed spirits at the golden stairs at Vale of Eternal Blossoms when the unleashed spirits quests is available.

Comment by Mellro

Please note that for level 90s, the normal ToT strategy with Unstable Corruption is NO LONGER ACCURATE. You have to do heroic Throne of the Tides if you want any charms, so you might want to bring a friend to help you out. I'm ilvl473 boomkin druid and i couldn't even solo the first grp of naga at the entrance to the dungeon on heroic. It might help to bring a buddy or 2 with you.

If you decide ToT is too hard, then there are crap tons of weak mobs running around in groups similar to the corruptions all over Pandaria that might have the same (or similar) effects. (I.E.Knifetooth Swarmers). Personally, I find that Slateskin Troublemakers are easy to kill and have a very high drop rate (they seem to drop one lovely charm every other kill) They are running around in a massive group on the ledges above Mistfall Village. ~~they are also passive mobs so if you feel like you're going to be overwhelmed, you don't need to worry about aggro~~ turns out that though these guys are passive, they can end up kiting you into other troublemakers which will automatically engage you in battle if they see you fighting one of their brethren. Basically, you can turn from fighting one or two, to a dozen in a matter of seconds..so be strategic when engaging these guys. But be extra careful if you're in questing greens and whatnot; these guys are not 'lesser' mobs!

Another good place is Stormstout brewery's Hoppers they have a fast spawn rate and are very easy to kill if you can get past the first boss. Just make sure you do this dungeon on normal mode so it's easier on yourself and you won't need a repair bill!

Comment by 1089850

I found today while doing Klaxxi dailies that the Sapfly mobs surrounding the trees in the northeast portion of Dread Wastes drop Lovely Charms. They are extremely easy to kill and respawn almost instantly.

Happy farming!

Comment by DELValdregan

Normal Stormstout Brewery would be an efficient place to farm in groups specially right before and after the first boss!

Comment by Zylostout

If you are level 90, an excellent spot to farm for Lovely Charms is The Widow's Wail, a cave on the east coast of the Jade Forest (entrance at 58.0, 31.8). The cave is full of groups of Widow Spawn, level 90 spiderlings that you can AOE or one-shot, and Weeping Widow spiders, which take a little more effort to kill, but are also skinnable (not sure for what, I wasn't there with a skinner).

I'd hate to think what kind of a charm you make out of spider parts. Not one I'd want personally.

Comment by ktnb

For hunters with a spirit beast: Skiggit in the Valley of the Four Winds is definitely your best bet.

1. Have your pet attack Skiggit, then put it on passive and move it out of the way (I put my spirit bear about halfway up the cave.)

2. Stand in the middle and let the little guys come to you. You should end up with about 7-8 of them. Multi-Shot once they're all there.

3. In the few seconds of respawn downtime, select Skiggit and cast your pet's Growl. When you get low on health, cast Spirit Mend on yourself. When your pet gets low, cast Mend Pet.

4. Wash, rinse, repeat.

I got 600 in a little under an hour. Very easy, and pretty fun.

Comment by 1069007

I didn't see anyone else post this, but you can farm the cursed gnomes from the http://www.wowhead.com/quest=27779] quest fairly well. 50k health, drop charms for 90's, have loot, quick respawn. Throne of the tides is probably better, but if you can't get into it, this is a good alternative.

Note: I didn't try it by running the fusion ball around. Based on what other people have posted, it probably doesn't work for charms.

Comment by elionor

if you have come to this page looking for the best place to farm charms and your a mage or a class with strong aoe look no further skiggit (vermin in a cave at location 23,30) is by far hands down the best place for farming the charms this guy spawns dozens of virmens at once during the encounter and their respawn is as close to instant as you can get (especially for a mage to set down a rune of power and arcane explosion all day long) even with allot of competition you get TONS of lovely charms this spot is equivalent to or perhaps even surpasses the ulduar spot back when this holiday was first reworked but hurry you do not know how long blizz will let you take advantage of this

Comment by That1tallguy

I have the best spot for farming the Lovely Charms.

Go to Valley of the Four Winds in the Northwest corner, (about 27, 30 cords) there is a hole on a ledge on the wall / mountain. When you go in there is a quest NPC named Skiggit with a lot of mice around him with ~4k health and near instant respawn. It seem they spawn faster when Skiggit is alive, so cc him some where away from adds and aoe.

I get near 40 charms per minute with two other people in my group leeching some at the same time.

Also, i heard there could be a phasing issue related to the Dominance Offensive but i cant confirm.

One last fact to know! There is a yellow bamboo chest that spawns in this cave with 98 gold! So even more of a reason to come farm here :)

Good luck, and i hope this help!

Blizzard brought down the hot-fix hammer and ruined all this amazing farming, Skiggit is no longer an glorious place to farm. It's not even okay. It's baaad.

Comment by daulder

Best way to farm Lovely Charm's as of 5.1 MoP. This can be done at 85-90, but you should be 90 so it doesn't take forever to travel.

To get to the farming spot simply go to Kun Lai Summit and go to the locations I've marked on this map. The locations here have these little Sha creatures in them that have about 30k hp a piece and there's about 10 of them in a pool. The pools take about 1 minute to respawn and there's 8 pools on the area I marked.

I've gotten anywhere between 1-10 lovely charms per pool. You can farm at least 300 lovely charms an hour, but more than likely above that especially if you have a lot of aoe.

Edit: Forgot to mention that the Sha will sometimes spawn in one of these pools, so be weary.

Comment by DarkDei7

(Patch 5.1.1)((still working on 5.4) The Best Lovely Charm Farming spot.
Surfing the net and trying as much thing as I could I finally found the spot!It appear to be the fastest and the easiest one!
In the Valley of the Four Winds,inside Stormstout Brewery,after the first boss,run straight to the stairs,and stand right in front of the small door near the end of the stairs that brings you to the second floor of the building.Well,right there loads of adds will spawn endlessly right here,running to you,ready to be farmed!.Just camp those adds ,I did 380 Lovely Charm in 30 mins.I was a level 86(now 87)Blood DK,and I soloed the entire first part of the dungeon to reach this spot.Doing this I found how mouch exp those adds,and the boss yelds to a solo player!Infact,if the boss dies you will gain 738240 exp(+369120 exp as Rested bonus) per kill! I simply did from 92% of lvl 86 to 2% of 87.So,except the fact that farming this boss grants you 10% of your total experience bar,and I killed him in 9 minutes(using barrels make it easier since every time the boss is hitted by those barrels he takes 10% more dmg and the effect stacks,I reached 13 stacks),just go upstair and stand right in the front of the door,because a lot of mobs would otherwise ignore you and run downstair,and start doing aoe.Dont forgot that Hammers kills doesnt count toward the Lovely charm drop,so you wouldn't receive any of them if you blow a kill with that!Even,if you engage the next boss (Hoptallus) the spawnpoint will disappear and you will not be able to kill them anymore until you reset the whole instance.

Finally,the types of adds you will farm are three:

The first one is Bopper that have the most health.
The second one is Hopper that only explode to you,dealing 50000 dmg and suiciding himself.This spell has a cast time and can be easly avoided.
The third one is Hopling that melee you for a ridiculous amount of dmg and only rarely snares you.They have 79k health.

Have a good time and good luck farming Lovely Charms!

Comment by cyz0r

I found a great place to farm them in MoP, patch 5.2 landfall. You might only be able to farm during a certain day of the dailies because of phasing but its not confirmed. Ok the quests your are going to have to be on are "Steer Clear of the Beer Here" and "Sprite Plight" given to you by Mayor Shiyo. I didnt turn quests in after completing but i think you can and the mobs will still respawn. The mobs you are looking for are the Slateskin Troublemaker's, they are carrying little barrels of beer. They have 315k and they will stun you, they dont hit to hard but the hit around 3-5k alot so yea you can die easily if you pull a bunch. im a destro lock so i had my voidwalker out tanking half of them and just aoeing them all down.

20 min farm with Potion of Luck.
53 luckycharms
~50 gold from mobs.
~150 gold from loot. (armor, weapons, randoms stuff.)
3 motes of harmony.
8 plundered treasures.
-64gold and some winwool cloth, ores, and leather from treasures.

So yea thats just in 20 mins. cost me 74g for the golden lotus to make potion but your server might be cheaper or expensive but if you have the gold its worth it!

Comment by Orcrageous

Seeing as how the cave in VotFW is just a battle ground I went elsewhere. Discovered that even at lvl 90 you can get charms off the guys at Molten Front since they are 85. With 75k HP you breeze through them and its constant respawn. Got 40 in about 10min do finish the City Leader turn-ins.

On a side note you could do your MF dailies while you're there if you want.

Comment by 1089980

The best way to farm these is to go to Skiggit's cave located in The Valley of the Four Winds, 23.29,39.42. The smaller vermin spawn consistantly, only have a little over 3K HP and a lot of people form raid groups to farm these. I farmed 2700 charms (needed for the mount) rather quickly, (about 1 1/2 hours).

Comment by DrtSph

I found the sapflies in Dread Wastes to be a great place to farm them, grouped up in 5-15 odd groups and with only 16k HP, no one to compete with either when I was there.

Comment by Anok8

In order to be able to collect these Charms, you need to have a Lovely Charm Collector's Kit in your bag.

Good Luck! :D

Comment by 1090048

For some reason i have been killing the unstable corruptions in throne of the tides for half an hour and only got 1 Lovely charm. Can anyone tell me what im doing wrong? do I just have to kill them?

Comment by 1090048

Great new place to farm for level 90 is Dread waste. Sapflies give them like theres no tomorrow and easy to kill. I was gathering on my warlock, used harvest life and they are dropping like...well...SAPFLIES!just got 40 in 15 minutes!

Comment by 1051356

At max level in MoP I would suggest the thousands of shrine flys in Dread Wastes - they only have 16k hp and can easily be AOE'd in large groups. They respawn very quickly as well.

Comment by lobain357

You do not need to get the killing blow to get this, been killing in a group for awhile.

Comment by 1090136

I posted a video on youtube with the #1 spot for obtaining these in the 2013 Love is in the Air event.
You can see the video here - (Youtube) /watch?v=30-vYsTuqSg
Hope this helps. P.S. 600 Charms every hour.

What about level 72? I tried the Fleshworks, and I killed a bunch of soldiers to no avail.

Comment by darksilver137

Seems like the drop rate in Skiggit's Cave has been hotfixed :(

Comment by ewok93

Just got hotfixed, they no longer drop in Skiggit's Lair.

Comment by 985321

Skiggit's cave doesn't drop Lovely Charm since February 11th, 2013.

Comment by 1064663

Found a great place to farm these with my Hunter. It requires some specifics but I'm able to farm hundreds an hour. It's not a good as Crypt of the Forgotten Kings, but it's a good place to go if no one will drag you in.

For this I have Exalted with the The Klaxxi. This is so I can get the Battle Hymn augmentation from Skeer the Bloodseeker and the Children of the Grave enhancement from Rik'kal the Dissector. Battle Hymn will keep pesky things like damage from killing you and Children of the Grave will take out the larger mobs for you.

In Dread Wastes there is a Clutch Spawning Point (44.8, 41.3 -- The Clutches of Shek'zeer; East of the Heart of Fear, Southwest of Klaxxi'Vess). There are dozens of Shek'zeer Swarmborn that respawn in about 60 seconds. By the time you've done a circle around the monument, the first ones you've killed are back.

As a Hunter:

Mount up and zoom around all of the Shek'zeer Swarmborn that you see on one side of the monument.
Once you have pulled a bunch of them, as well as the other regular level 90 mobs, focus on a single Shek'zeer Swarmborn.
Kill this single mob, this should activate Battle Hymn.
Disengage and fire off a Barrage while running back towards the swarm; this should begin restoring your life. (You can use Multi-Shot should you not have Barrage.)
Keep firing off Multi-Shot and Focus regens when you get low. ( comes in handy here.)
Children of the Grave should be kicking in at this point. As the eggs explode they should begin killing the larger level 90 mobs that you've no doubt collected. Each kill from Children of the Grave can spawn more eggs and the kills from it do drop charms for you.
Move over to the other side of the monument and do everything over there. Rinse/repeat.

Other Notes:

This actually works well enough that even if another person shows up, the spawn rate is such that it only has a minor affect on your drop rate.
There's no reason this will not work with other classes, but Hunter's are in the unique position to trigger Children of the Grave on dozens of mobs at once, bring HP from 10% back to 100% in seconds.
At 370K HP with a tank pet, I'm able to pull every mob in the area with no problems. If you are trying with a level 90 Hunter and getting killed, you're doing something wrong.
On a side note, because of the sheer number of mobs you will be killing and Children of the Grave, this will make DPS meters calculate you well over you're normal DPS. It's quite interesting to look at how this dynamic affects your DPS.

Comment by ZevilDog

Any quest mob your level (for exsample a maxed 90 can kill 85+) you can kill twice for two charms now. quest mobs also respawn very fast.

Comment by Lokutus86

For Alliance i suggest going to Twinspire Keep in Jade Forest.

Killing the Eye of Ga'trul wich have around 14k HP gave me around 70 charms in about 15min.
The respawn rate is very high so you can stay at the lower part of the keep.

Comment by booMcfierce

Farming Crown Technician in Uldum yielded about 40 Lovely Charm's every 15 minutes for me on 2/12/2013. The nice thing about farming these guys is the respawn rate. I did this while six other people were doing the same thing and there were always plenty of them around to slay.

Comment by 1073372

Found new spot,after all the other got fixed.
Tiny Mutated Silkmoth Tiny Mutated Silkmoth (In Valley of the Four Winds @Silk Fields!)
Avenger drops:2-5 per group.
30 mins of farming: 400 Lovely Charm

Goodluck and enjoy it!

Comment by jackal187

I have found another place that might not be quite as good as Skeggit's cave but there is a constant flow of lvl 90 spectre's that only have about 75k hp. it is in front of the golden stair in the Vale of Eternal blossoms. just stand at 42, 22 and they will all come to you. Just be careful of the occasional behemoth that comes down the steps.

Comment by jackal187

As of a hot fix for patch 5.1, Skeggit's cave is no longer a farming spot for lovely charms. I have found a better place. In front of the Golden Stair at 44, 22 in the Vale of Eternal Blossoms. There is a constant flow of lvl 90 Unleased Spirts with approx 75k HP. Just be careful of the occasional behemoth that walks down the steps.

Comment by 1064831

For those farming these off Crown Technicians, you'll find one problem is the number of opposing faction players flagged PvP. Its easy to accidentally target & hit them, resulting in YOU getting flagged. I came up with a macro that handles this nicely and saves time for my Rogue. Adjust as necessary for your character.

/tar Crown Technician
/cast Shuriken Toss

I bound this to my Tab key, now I just run around using the mouse and spam the Tab key. No possibility to accidentally target a flagged player. I've been collecting Lovely Charms like crazy.

PS: I gave up on Fan of Knives rather quickly, there always seems to be a flagged Ali who gets hit. This macro works quicker.

Comment by dcsteve24

For those who can't solo 5.1 instances, i find it extremely effective to farm the silken fields small moth groups. Every group of the small moths gives about 4 charms on average, quickly respawn, and are killed in about 2-3 AOE spells. Had 40 in just a few minutes for the daily turn ins. Now that i found a place to farm them, no more Vday dailies.

Comment by 905173

Verlok's Stand (68, 28) in Deepholm is a great place to farm these.! The mobs have around 54k hp and respawn very quickly. On my server (Outland-EU) it's not very much competition so i got roughly 500 of them after an hour of farming.
Hope this helps you! :)

Comment by Yatoila

I found a spot in "Terrace of Ten Thunders" in Jade Forest where there are the Ancient Spirits that spawn from these poles and travel to a green portal looking thing. There are only ever three spawned per pole but they respawn as soon as you kill them. They drop no loot but are excellent for farming the Charms if you have a steady AoE, just sit at the base of the tower and AoE you're heart out. The mobs only have about 23k hp so I was easily 1 shotting them when my AoE crit. As a monk I got over 300 charms in 10 minutes.

Screenshot of where I stood for it.

Comment by Touketsu

The single best place that I have found to farm these so far would be during the daily quest Unleashed Spirits. While the Unleashed Spirits themselves drop no loot, they still have the standard chance to yield a charm, oddly enough. Not many people seem to know about this and it's easy enough to stand a little ways down the road and grab entire streams of spirits. However, there's still the possibility of other daily-related mobs coming down the path. (read: Shao-Tien Behemoth)

While this source won't be available every day, it's still an excellent source of charms on the days that it is available.

Comment by 990040

Since Skiggit is no longer farm-able (just went there before reading about the hotfix); I'd recommend farming wasp-type mobs on Dread Wastes as they drop about 2 charms per group and are easily AoE'd.

Comment by AntiAngelMM

A great place to grind for them when you are level 90 is in Pandaria, The Jade forest @ Thunder Hold /way 33.3, 6.75 Dont bother with the Shar Harbringers Just run around and kill the Sha Haunt's and the humanoids you will have it in no time.

Comment by 999288

I cannot say for sure what it's "the best place to farm these" since I didn't try all but here comes my tip:

if you follow the main questline until the end, you will be asked to destroy a chemical wagon and kill five Crown Chemical Co. baddies found around it (location depends on your level). What I saw is that the baddies keep spawning very fast so you can just stay next to the wagon and kill as they appear (sometimes you will be fighting against 3-4 at a time). In little time, you should have gathered a hand full of Lovely Charms.
Only remember that if you come back to the quest giver and complete the quest, you won't be able to come back to farm more charms (no... I didn't think of that back then :-| )

Comment by 1064831

I tried quite a few suggestions for farming these. Here is my input:

-To save time, the best is first: I followed the suggestion to kill the Tiny Mutated Silkmoths in Valley of the Four Winds. There are at least 9 spawn points there, in three groups of 3 points each (in an approximate triangle). Each spawn point has around 10 silk moths. Using Fan of Knives they drop like bricks in 2 or 3 shots, and yield 2-6 charms each time. Just move around the spawn points. I timed it, and could average 100 charms in 10 minutes if I hustled.

A bonus trick I found accidentally is to use a friend in one group of spawn points, and you in one. These seem to instantly spawn elsewhere when you wipe them out, so you end up passing them back and forth and hardly have to move- just the short distance between the 3 spawn points in your group. This makes the numbers go WAY up since you cut travel time.

-I tried the flies in Dread Wastes. Too many high level mobs to be efficient. They work O.K. otherwise, but not great. Too much time spent killing harder mobs to make it worthwhile, unless you are questing there anyway.

-I tried "Terrace of Ten Thunders" in Jade Forest, but my Fan of Knives didn't put them down quick enough, and they came out too slow to get any real numbers- maybe a group of 3 every 15 seconds or so, and with 1 charm every 3-5 kills, this was just too slow for me.

-Crown Technicians in Uldum, where you do the daily, drop pretty well if there isn't much competition. But I found the place is usually mobbed, you have the problem of accidentally hitting a flagged PvP player which flags you, and you end up either hiding or defending yourself, and quite often dead. They do drop well though if there isn't much competition there.

Comment by Eivmoe

Another super easy way to do it at least when you get in is in. Alcetrac valley, and go for the sneivils at the mine, they drop them almost every kill, got around 200 under 20 mins even with 3 deaths and ally taking the mine over.

Comment by edwordrules

If you are lucky enough to not have leveled one of your toons to 90, normal Throne of the Tides is still the best place. Just nuke the first boss and head over to the Unstable Corruptions just before the final boss. I went there with my 86 Hunter and in about 30 minutes i had +500. If i had thought about this sooner in the day i would have just farmed enough for my bird. The mobs are lvl 80 and still green at 86. You also get 28-30 XP if youre worried about leveling while farming.

Comment by Sutcliff

Knifetooth Swarmer in Whitepetal Lake in Vale of Eternal Blossoms are nice to farm. They give a fair amount of charms and they come in small packs easy to kill, and respawn fairly quick.

Edit: I marked this Out of date, as the Knifetooth Swarmers are now gone/dead.

Comment by Katstorm

As of patch 5.1, At Level 90 I'm farming them in Kun-Lai with the Seething Shas that pop up randomly on the map. They have a fast respawn rate, and a high drop rate (usually 2-4 charms per mob).

...Not to mention they are wicked easy to kill at level 90.

Comment by Barleduq

All the comments on this first page reference places in Pandaria. My L84 Hunter isn't there yet; I picked up the harrison jones quests in Uldum after I offed the Crown Technicians, and found what seems a good place there.

If you go down into the Chamber of the Stars, you'll see skeletons on the floor, looking like set dressing. Well, when you get close to them they wake up to be Tormented Tomb-Robber. The first time I walked over one and killed it, I got an item that started a quest. But they still keep waking up when you walk over them, even after you turn the quest in, and as I was doing the other quests down there.

I found that the best part was that they dropped no loot. But they still gave me charms. So nothing to load down my bags with. I went back down there after the questline was done, and they still woke up.

.Not hundreds per hour... but easy to do, no real distractiions or other mobs, and no competition like around the crown chemical truck.

Good luck

Comment by 1071973

For lvl 90, 3 prosper places to farm Lovely Charms are:

1. The Golden Stair in Vale of Eternal Blossoms when the daily for the Unleashed Spirit is available. They respawn very fast and in big groops and are soloable very easily.
2. Tomb of Khartut in Uldum, Crown Technician They respawn very fast and die with ac ouple of shots/hits.
3. Silken Fields in Vale of 4 winds is fairily a good place but Tiny Mutated Silkmoth is not as prosperous as 1 & 2.

Note that you dont need to be the first to hit the mob to get the charm!

Comment by dusama

The best place to farm for 90 is at Uldum 67, 20, where the daily quest happens. What people do is that they just came there to kill 5 mobs and complete quest, but failed to notice that mobs' health is only 50k, so you pretty much 1-2 shot them, and they respawn instantly.

I got 40 charms daily in just 15 mins.

Comment by 830889

For those of you who have robust self-healing/utility (or a friend to help!) for clearing up to the first boss Throne of the Tides on heroic mode remains the best place this year as well. I was able to, as a 485 shadow priest, solo up to Lady Naz'jar and then walk around Ulthok to get to the good 'ol Water Elemental hallway. Within 5 minutes I had amassed 50 charms.

Same rules apply: Don't kill the two sentries around Neptulon's door at the end, and don't let your debuff stack too high. Run out once in a while to get health/mana.

The good thing about it being on heroic this year as opposed to normal is that if you need to leave to repair or vendor or do something else, you can come back and not have to do all the trash again! So I'm quite happy that this spot is still open to us.

Some tips for shadow priests doing it: Take psyfiend (better than Void Tendrils as it can help deal with the casters). Psychic Scream melee trash away, save your 3 orb Devouring Plague for the healers. Make sure, of course, to silence and interrupt them. A PVP trinket can help with the polymorph. Target the healers, then the shamans, then the melee. Dispel the melee bubble shield. Also glyph Fade for a 10% damage reduction and, of course, Dark Binding.

As for Lady Naz'jar be prepared to use all your CDs (and healing CDs). Try to get her phase down as fast as possible as her disease still hurts, and still interrupt Shock Blast. It was a fairly simple solo otherwise, not something to faceroll through, but not something that's impossible. Have fun!

Comment by ainotna

The best place to farm these are the Knifetooth Swarmers in Whitepetal Lake. Of course the daily quest needs to be available in order for these mobs to be there, but if it is almost every single fish drops one, it takes 1 or 2 hits to kill them, they can be aoe'd, and they respawn like crazy. Takes about 5 minutes to get a stack of 40 Lovely Charms.

Comment by 155814

I have been farming Lovely Charms at Silken Fields in Vally of the Four Winds.Tiny Mutated Slikmoth.They respawn pretty fast.

Comment by ziva1991

Today i was in Throne of the Tides HC. As a level 90 Nightelf druid. (boomkin)
There i killed Lady Naz'jar and Commander Ulthok.
Then i went to the water elementals and noticed they still drop Lovely Charm!
You will need 10 of them to create Lovely Charm Bracelet. Each bracelet can be turned in for Love Token.

So if you are after the Swift Lovebird you will need 2700 Lovely Charm. That sounds like alot.
But i had my mount in like 2 hours or so.

Here is a macro i used to see how much i needed to get my mount :

/run local c,t,b= GetItemCount(49655,true),GetItemCount(49927,true),GetItemCount(49916,true) SendChatMessage(t.."/"..b.."/"..c.." tokens/bracelets/charms farmed, "..(270-t-b)*10-c.. " charms remaining", YELL)

I also used another macro wich created the braclet for me and also turned them in for a Love token.
(be sure vendor window is open)

#show Lovely Charm
/use Lovely Charm
/run BuyMerchantItem(1,1)

I hope you guys can do something with my post.
This is one of my first posts ever and i hope this will work for you as good as it worked for me!

And have fun with your new mount!

Comment by Mavennevam

I found like the best way to farm theese Lovely charms
In the Dread wastes, there are NPCs named Sapfly. They are in groups, 5 maybe 6.
They have 16k hp and drop Lovely chams. I got 3 per group and they are very easy to farm!
As a Monk, a single Crane kick kills them all
Good Luck on farming guys!

Comment by booodka

i had remembered u cold farm these really easily in tol barad last year (just go to the prison cells and the oposing faction prisoners are there, not even 100k so easy to kill) u must own TB t do this tho, in a mater of 4-5 minutes i had upward of 50 (5 braclets) ill update on howlong it takes when i get the mount

Comment by 1086420

I found one of the best place to farm these at 90 are in Deepholm. The stone troggs are still green so the are a 'worth while' enemy, not to mention you can get quite a bit of embersilk to sell on the AH. In one hour i farmed about 300 charms and at least 400 embersilk cloth. However any mob colored green, yellow, or red will normaly drop them. The tricksters all over Pandaria work well too.

Comment by Strivs

While Schwaci's instance location is undoubtedly faster than this in the long term, if you just want to grab a few charms without getting past any bosses, then the best location I've found is in the large plain in between 'Ruins of Guo-Lai' and 'Setting Sun Garrison' as you look on your map.

There are small packs (3-5) of Fairlands Gazelles dotted all over this area, all of which have less than 100k hp. You can pull 2-3 groups together and AoE them down, just don't stray too far or they'll reset and evade. I tend to get my 40 daily charms in around 10-15 mins with this method.

TLDR - Find and farm: Fairlands Gazelle

Comment by Sylaz

Kun-Lai off the Seething Sha seems to be the best place for me.

For anyone with AoE just fly between the little sha touched areas on the ground and knock them out. They have around 32k hp so usually a hit or two is all it takes to knock them out. The respawn seems to be a couple minutes at most, so flying in a circle to kill them almost ensures they'll be up. If you sit at one spawn location it's not too bad either.

Killing these guys you can rake in the charms relatively easily.

Comment by Creaky

So I tried Throne of the Tides as a rogue... Wipefest.
So I tried Stormstout Brewery... Wipefest.
So I went on to check for other places.
Crypt of Forgotten Kings doesn't work if the two in group don't leave.
Skibi's cave was oblirated by Blizzard.

But!
The Thunder Hold at Jadeforest.
Where all the meanie minie moes are packed tight.
Wiped us when we entered pandaland.
Mocked us!

It's time for payback.
For they do pay us back!
With those lovely charms.

Enjoy farming ;)

Comment by Xweaz

Haven't seen it posted anywhere but the Vashj'ir trash mobs are all level 80. This is no longer viable for a 90 trying to farm Lovely Charms.

Comment by vickyd

I'm surprised this hasn't been mentioned yet. I got into the action a week late due to travel, but here goes:

Tried Stormstout Brewery - took a while to clear it to ook-ook. Returns were quite decent after clearing though. So I went to do something a little different.

In Valley of the Four Winds, there's a nice spot near 62,25 (Pools of Purity). It is loaded with mobs, the tiny Razorback Snapper

Each mob has 36.9k HP, and spawns damn near instantly.
Mobs are hostile - so you don't need to start attacking - they'll attack you!
You can mount-grab 1/2 the mobs, kill them in 1, max 2 AE abilities.

My first test run of 11-12 mins yielded about 120-130 charms. That's about 11-12 per minute. Wasn't specced right though - will make a more quicker regen + movement speed run later and update!

So far though, this has been very fruitful! I just do it while queued for various things and the spot being so close to Vale makes it even easier!

Edit: Another 5 min run, this time properly glyphed + talented: 73 charms.

Comment by Ruhig

After trying various points, I think I finally got it.

The Sha and orcs at the Alliance landing zone for Pandaria are the ticket. Garrosh'ar Point and Paw'don Glade have tons of enemies that are still green at level 90, pose virtually no threat and are packed in nice, tight clusters. Using AoEs, I cleared 50 Charms in less than half an hour.

Comment by 811950

Easy Place to get these fast @ level 90. The small turtles at the Pools of Purity in Valley of 4 winds, small HP, super fast respawn, loads of them

Comment by sezen

I've had luck farming these from the Horrorscale Scorpids in Dread Wastes; the scorpids are skinnable. If you have the Angel of Death enhancement, Kil'ruk will help you out.

Comment by FluidDruid3

Note before reading this long and extensive post: please only regard this message should you have a level 50-60 character, for this holds a guide to farming the ultimate, and possibly max amount possible Lovely Charms at that level. Also, I will include a guide to farm them at level 60-70 as well in a moment, after copy/pasting this post.

This spot is beautiful for farming Lovely Charms during Love is in the Air. Superspam with a Brewmaster Monk that has Glyph of Spinning Crane Kick, Ascension talent and Oxe Stance for maximum energy regeneration. Step 3, spam it in circles and pick up the healing orbs that spawn (level 56) due to Gift of the Ox (passive), utilize Desperate Measures (passive); if you drop below 35% health, spam Expel Harm until you're a t a decent health: utilize the extra Chi point, spam Guard, and when you run otu of energy monetarily for Spinning Crane Kick, simply use Keg SMash and then spam a few Breath of Fires (glyphed with Glyph of Breath of Fire) to ultimately either finish off the enemies you aggroed, or at least simply stun them for some time to use expel harm to save yourself. If you specialize in Chi Wave, use it on about 5-7 enemies in a pack, as it will do damage and at the same time attempt to bounce to- and heal- you. Ultimately, within about an horu of farming or less, I have collected a total 400 Lovely Charms. Cheers, you farmers at low levels, you!

*Note: Apologies for giving suggestions simply on Brewmaster Monks, I'm sure that on other classes you want to simply use skills that hit multiple mobs often (AoE-area of effect skills) and give yourself time to regenerate health; If you don't have any heavy or basic, simple spell-cast heals hopefulyl your health regenration is quick enough to maintain killing various mobs. For a warrior, I would imagine killing one npc and then using victory rush, and so on. For a mage, hopefulyl ice barrier is a possiblity if not various stuns and AoEs (that could very well go along with stuns). In any case, good luck when farming Lovely Charms in such a way: I hope others have as much luck as I have doing so. Also, if you have troubles reaching Blackrock Depths, where the farmable (did I mention where I've posted this originally that the NPC=Anvilrage Reservist, I.D. 8901) NPCs are, you can attempt to find somebody on various servers to use their Direbrew Remote item (collected from the Brewfest world event boss) and have them teleport you to the Grim Guzzler, Blackrock Depths. Go through the room, and if you like, kill the Guzzling Patrons. You would next want to go up the stairs on your left if you'd just entered Blackrock Depths, and kill the boss, Plugger Spazzring, which causes Phalanx (boss, 65,000 health) to become attackable. When killed, in no such certain order, a pack of 3 elites will enter through the door where Phalanx stood, which must be passed (stealth by/kill). Upon goign through the open door, you must head to the left down the semi-circle, kill the first pack of elites and non-elites, and go down the hall to the left. You will run across a boss, which could possibly be passed if you hug the wall to the left within the room and hope not to aggro him, or hope stealth will get you by. Now, you have to either pass or kill the arcanasmiths and golems in the next room, and heado n to the next boss. For that boss, miniature boss mobs with about 19,000 health will run out to attack you, and the whole boss fight ends upon killing the seventh dwarf with 33,000 health. Be aware; these dwarves, if taken too long to kill, may end up not hesitating to allow another ofthe 7 dwarves to begin attacking you with them. So in this case, you must kill swiftly or risk dieing. If you have a healing specialization of some sort, or something that can keep you alive if simming in lava, an easier way can be taken to skip most of this. Simply refer back to the point where you run across Ambassador Flamelash, and instead of hugging the rLeft wall to skip him hug the RIGHT wall untill you reach the ledge overlooking lava. Without aggroing the boss, move towards the far left side of the ledge and jump off it, spamming heals as you go (a druid with a healing and tank specialization works best in this situation, or a paladin with a holy and protection specialization, as they could heal themselves as they swim through lava. use the V key if not already using it to see where enemy NPCs are, as you must be very careful not to run into the Destroyer NPCs (elites) who make your life harder when swimmign through lava. As long as you stay to the left side of the wall while in the lava, you will soon reach a ramp you can run up. When there, make a left turn and then a right turn (use the map to find your way to where the Summoner's Tomb spot and The Seven Dwarves fight was). When back on track, make your way in the direction of The Lyceum, where you must open a door that you can click on (no key necessary), which then leads you into the Lyceum. If you can't click on the door, you are facing the wrong direction and are trying to enter the Summoner's Tomb instead (which you shouldn't be doing). In the case that you cleared all bosses up to the Seven Dwarves, do the same as the directions implied when walkign through the Lyceum doors, Upon entering the room, be sure you have a specialization that provides either A) Heavy heals, B) High damage absorption, or C) amazingly powerful Area of Effect skills (AoE, multiple-enemy hitting skills) that can absolutely kill NPCs with 1500 health or so. If you meet most of those requirements, and being proper level (52-53 is the level of the NPCs, be sure to be close to that level yourself when collecting Lovely Charms). These NPCs respawn INSANELY fast, so hopefully, you won't aggro them (they're aggressive so being too close may aggro them). Also, this spot works just as well for farming the Darkmoon Fair Trophies of Strength. All in all, this could be very well one of the best farming spots for level 50-60s who don't have a high level who could farm a mount worth ~10,000 gold~ (more or less) and the like, such as companions etc. Good luck, all ye fellow Charm-farmers!

Uh, Must have forgotten to mention; it is not necessary to kill Plugger Spazzringer, you only need to kill some NPCs in the room so thtt the 3 elites spawn at the door to open it up; In fact, without my level FIFTY-EIGHT brewmaster monk, I do not think that after having killed Plugger Spazzring, I would have been able to solo Phlanax at 52-55. Either way, I was capable of clearing now and am moving on to see if I can still, at level 58, farm the Lovely Charms as I'd wanted. On the 7 Dwarves, I utilized Keg Smash, Guard, Expel Harm, Chi Wave, Blackout Kick (for Shuffle), Tiger Palm for additonal damage and Jab for extra Chi. Using Spear Hand Strike, I silenced one of the dwarves' heals and alot of their heavy damage spellcasts. All in all, at level 58, I was a little late to finish off each dwarf: given they ranegd from 19-24 thousand health, I'd always have one nearlydead and another one spawning. Each new spawn occurs after 1 minute, or after the death of whatever first one was spawned. Also, for those of whom don't know how to intiate the dwarf fight, speak to Doom'rel in the farm back of the room to get started. When you finish the fight, simply, as I said, walk down the hall to the Lyceum chamber doors, click them, and AoE away the Reservists. Cheers!

Comment by FluidDruid3

As I said, I would also post information on a level 60-70 farming spot for Lovely Charms. Utilizing some basic information from my other post, you have to go to the instance at Hellfire Peninsula, Shattered Halls. Clear all mobs up to the boss, Grand Warlock Nethekurse. Before reaching him, you will notice that a gate is locked that you cannot open. here's where the farming comes in. Down a hole in the wall, to the right, is a cave carved by corrosive acid sentient npcs, most non-elite but some elite as well. They constantly respawn at both sides of the halls, and are pretty easily AoE (area of effect-mass hitting NPC skills-) killed. Although the respawn rate may be a bit low, it is probably amazing and outstanding compared to any other possible techniques for farming Lovely Charms at levels 60-70. In any case, I do not know if these mobs stop respawning should any of the instances' bosses be killed, but hopefully you can farm to your hearts content with little issues at all. Good luck again, fellow farmers!

Comment by wiseguyxp

If you're in a heavily-farmed area, remember it's not the tag that gets the charm - it's the killing blow. If an annoying hunter or affliction lock is going around tagging everything, just be the one to finish it off and you'll still have the regular chance to get a charm.

Comment by Onyxek

(Works for lvl 90)
I find that the best place to farm these is in Stonecore. Around 400-500 per hour depending on your luck, and 3/4 of the time you can be AFK. Get to the first boss, Corborus, and let him beat you for about 1m15s. Then he goes underground and spawns lots of Rock Borer. You can really easily AoE down their 7k hp, and their drop chance is high. Repeat this, try not to damage Corborus, and you should get about 400-500 Lovely Charm depending on your luck. It helps to have a few healing spells or to be a tanking class, even though the boss does not do much damage at all.
There isn't any competition as the area is instanced, and 3/4 of the time you can be AFK while you wait for the underground phase!
:)

Comment by Crusi

So just finished collecting all Lovely Charm that I needed. Didn't try a lot of different places, just one that someone commented here.
The place is The Singing Marshes in Valley of the Four Winds.

/way Valley of the Four Winds 25.94 44.16 The Singing Marshes

There are two mobs there you can farm, Whitefisher Crane level 87 beasts with roughly 140k health and Emperor Tern level 87 beast with roughly 22k health.

While the Whitefisher Cranes drop Wildfowl Breast, Mote of Harmony, some greens etc etc, I found it much easier and faster to farm just the Emperor Terns that drop absolutely nothing useful, so it saved me time on looting, there are larger numbers than the cranes and they re-spawn really really fast.

Made a macro:

/tar Emperor Tern
/cast Moonfire

and kept running around the area hitting the macro. In a few hours (approx. 4 on and off) i had all the charms i needed for the mount.

Bonus if you're a herbalist, tons of Silkweed around the lakes.

Hope this helps! xx

Khu's Watch

Doing Khu's Dispair Quest.

Phased quest, nice spawn rate of Essence of Dispair (lvl 86) that drop the charms.

Hope this was remotely helpful to anyone not wanting to be in a crowded scene?

Comment by wicca1987

I went to Throne of the Tides (heroic) and found the perfect farming spot.
On your way to the last boss there is a corridor with lots of Unstable Corruption, that respawn very fast. Even if you kill the Tainted Sentry, they will keep coming. Easy to kill and good drop chance of Lovely charms.
I left the 2 sentries standing in front of the gate to the last boss.

Happy farming!

Comment by Mellro

Best way to farm Lovely Charms similar to the Unstable Corruption in Throne of the Tides for level 90s:

✰1. Zijin Hollowfly. Location: Paoquan Hollow, Valley of the Four Winds. Difficulty - Easy/Medium (Notes: slight difficulty for those under leveled/under geared due to surrounding mobs.).

✰2. Tiny Mutated Silkmoth. Location: Silken Fields, Valley of the Four Winds. Difficulty - Easy.

☃ 3. Hoppers. Location: Stormstout Brewery (normal or heroic) on the path up to the second boss. Difficulty - Medium/Hard (Notes: don't engage second boss or they stop spawning; easy to be overwhelmed, the use of hammers gained from the Boppers to kill Hoppers will NOT earn any charms).

☃ 4. Slateskin Troublemaker. Location: Ledges above Mistfall Village, Vale of Eternal Blossoms. Difficulty - Hard (Notes: easy to be overwhelmed; not a lesser mob).

5. Ashweb Hatchlings . Location: Ruins of Guo-Lai/ Guo-Lai Halls, Vale of Eternal Blossoms. Difficulty: Easy (Notes: spawns triggered when their egg sacks (which appear as grey mounds on the ground) are walked over. Easy to mistake egg sacks for cobblestones.).

Key
✰ = personal preference
☃ = least personal favorite

Comment by crackface

i got almost 30 in the dagger in the dark scenario from all the little hatchlings

Comment by Faynar

As a 90 boomkin, I found that the area in Uldum where you get sent to blow up the wagons, the undead guys there are great for farming these. Just spam moonfire or sunfire, depending on which eclipse state you're in, and once you get the buff going that increases your damage just one of those will kill a guy so you can just run around spamming those and I got 132 in less than 30 mins. This will probably work with other ranged classes as well. Just give the mob a dot or two, depending on how well geared you are, and run around doing that to as many mobs as you can.

Comment by Sekidi

I have found a great farm spot, in Crypt of Forgotten Kings before last boss there are mobs called Spawn of Anger with 39k health and you get a 60% dmg increase buff so i stayed there and farmed by myself for a while and after 53min i had farmed 1700 lovely charms, they hit for around 3-4k on leather but was easy to farm as a monk since you get heals from killing blow and you have endless of energy to spam spinning crane kick. AWESOME place, highly recommended.

Comment by Bauta

I found a great place in Guo-Lai Halls, it is one of the final daily quests to kill the big spider named Bloodtip. It spawns loads of tiny spiders which you can oneshot and they can all give you a token. I got 21x charms in one kill of Bloodtip and it's adds.

Comment by bilguun83

i was doing The Ashweb Matriarch quests and it appears that adds of Bloodtip npc drops lot of charms. Spawn rate is fast so happy farming :)

Comment by loudwhitenoise

As a 90, I found a great place to farm at the Imperial Granary, Valley of the Four Winds. Why? Because the sprites there give you a speed boost when killed. The respawn rate is high enough that you will be running around with +100% speed nearly all the time. Also, the small-health-bar mini mobs count for these, so you can pwnzor easy trash. In my example, these would be Kernel Sprite, but you can probably find any type of mini-mob all over the place; this is just what works best for me.

Sorry if I dont make much sense, it's late.

Comment by Fenbrae

Two handy pointers about farming these:

- You want a place with lots of weak enemies that are within your level range (they need to be green or higher). I personally like the Throne of the Tides. The Unstable Corruption adds right before the Ozumat room can be onehsot with any AoE, they spawn very quickly and in very big amounts, they fall within the level requirement (they are 85 on Heroic) and noone can steal your farm inside of a dungeon!

- While farming, be ready to make multiple trips. The bracelets don't stack and your bags will fill up. If you are planning on getting the Love Bird, take your biggest bags with you to minimize the amount of times you have to travel.

Comment by Thevie

I got 350 lovely charms in 30 mins killing Hoplings in Stormstout Brewery (just standing in the door, right before Hoptallus) as a prot pala :)

GL farming those!

Comment by Zwolzy

For the people who can't afford their repair bills: Don't farm the Bopper, Hopper and Hopling NPC's! They might be easy to farm, but your gear will break after a while. Farmed these for about 30-60 minutes and my gear turned yellow.

If anyone is wondering, I've got 320 charms already within those 30-60 minutes as a Feral Druid ilvl 526 using bear form: Swipe, Mangle and Trash.

Comment by Ernu

If you want to farm this a great spot is the Fractured Front west of Deepholm, there are around 9 spots with 5 to 9 mobs each, those have some sort of reactive spawn, when you kill one of the groups another one spawns, so the faster you go the faster they spawn, they only drop a bit of gold and ocacionally a gray item, not great for grinding other stuff but Lovely Charm

Comment by Isengardlord

I think the best mobs to farm these are definietly (at lvl90) are these:Sapfly
16k hp and spawns in big packs!

Comment by Rosalynann

Level 90 belf hunter, went to Ruins of Ammon in Uldum, cleaned house in about ten, fifteen minutes, got plenty of these- dropped two out of three kills.

Comment by Rishu0182

As an Elemental Shaman I first tried the method in stonecore and found i was only getting about 10 a minute, so i decided to try the method in Stormstout Brewery in front of Hoptallus. Fyi you don't need to be on heroic you can solo all this pretty easily. I stood right at the door to Hoptallus and just rotated using earthquake and using thunderstorm as often as possible. I also glyphed for thunderstorm so I could keep mana up even better. Whenever I got to about 75% health I would drop a healing totem to get me back up. I stood there and did this for about half an hour and got about 1500 lovely charms which should take care of most of your needs for getting the achievements for this holiday.

Comment by gammarayray29

I've found an easy and quick way to farm these as a level 90 is to kill the groups of Kunzen Rockflingers in Kunzen Village.

Comment by Pinochet

I can't honestly say I've tried all the strategies here, but I really can't picture anything faster than this:

Go to the Pit of Scales (map) in Uldum, where there are piles of pink croc eggs all around a watery pit. Stepping on one spawns eight young crocolisks with 53k hp stuck directly to your body. Tab once to target one and then AoE them down, should be fairly easy to 1-2shot the entire bunch (I used my survival spec for serpent spread).

If you did this quickly enough you should still be under the effects of the "tiny teeth" debuff which slows your runspeed to 30%-ish. This is good. Mount up on a flying mount, go up about a body length in height, and dismount. As you drop you will spawn eight more young crocolisks on you for you to kill. Rinse and repeat.

I was usually able to chain about eight rounds of crocolisks before even I had to walk to another egg pile, and I hit 10 stacks of charms before I knew what was going on.

As an added bonus, you can loot the dead crocs for vendor trash and disenchantables.

(Pity this is going to get buried, it's absurdly quick)

Comment by Kelzen

The best place for these has to be in Deepholm around Needlerock Slag. (western side of Deepholm, Fractured Front) There's a lot of mobs there that you can aoe and they're really easy to kill on a 90. It takes me about 3 minutes to get 40 Lovely Charms.

Comment by Valoruum

Still working on the Timeless Isle? I farmed the Windfeather Nestkeepers and chicks for about 15 minutes and got my 40 charms needed to do the day's faction leader daily turn-ins. While doing my Emperor daily, I picked up 15 more incidentally to killing the elite Ordos Flamecallers/Oathguards by also AOE's down adjacent Candlekeepers.

Comment by BoberFett

As a mage, running around the turtle pond at the top of the Pools of Purity, by the time I loop around from Arcane Blasting the turtles, they've already started respawning. It's a perpetual loop of charm farming.

Comment by Jaadis7

One of the best places to farm in 5.4 is in Dread Wastes: Terrace of Gurthan and Forgotten Mire. Look for the little sap flies, and one shot aoe them. Minimal work, lots of charms! There are also flies in the Paoquan Hollow area of Valley of the Four Winds.

Happy Hunting!

Comment by infernalkid

I found out that Zandalari Warscouts are perfect for farming those (with scarab swarm ability) just make sure he doesnt die, reset him if he needs to and aoe the scarabs.

Comment by totorz

Very nice place to farm it: Throne of Tides( hc).
Knock out first two bosses.
Make your way to the tunnel leading to the final boss(ozumat).
Kill everything in the tunnel except the last two elementals guarding the door.

The small elementals that spawn have only a few thousand health, so most aoes will 1-shot them. They constantly spawn in 3 groups and give enough time for cooldown-based aoes, such as thunderclap, to reset.
They stand still for a couple of seconds after they spawn, making them an easy target for mass-killing.
Leave your charms unused in your bag, since the bracelets take up a whole slot each, while the charms can stack to 40(4 bracelets worth)

How to get to Throne of Tides:
For anyone that started playing in MoP and skipped this zone, you just need to visit a Warchief's Command/Hero's Call board that will send you on a journey starting at the Org/SW docks.
You can complete the quests in the zone to get an underwater mount, or you can swim to the surface and use your flying one.
After this, make your way west to Abyssal Depths and swim into the centre of the giant whirlpool, this will transport you to a small area where you can find the entrance to Throne of Tides. Make sure dungeon difficulty is set to 5 man (Heroic) and you're all set.

As a side note, you do not need to clear the first two bosses every day, you can simply refresh your lock by pressing 'o', going to 'raid' tab, clicking on 'raid info', locating Throne of Tides, and extending lock.

Comment by Hoplowe

As an incredibly lazy 90, I've found farming these with the Virmen burrows dotted around in the Valley of the Four winds to be the easiest option.

Sweet revenge, you little bastards.

Comment by toppjubei

If you were farming Throne of Tides, it appears that in the last few hours Blizzard has turned off lovely charm drops from the elementals. Waah!

Comment by Ekstacy

I have tried to get these for the past 2 hours. I've tried all of your suggestions & pretty much all of the places suggested. Still I haven't even managed to get 1 Lovely Charm. What am I doing wrong? Please help.

Comment by Yakiniku

I found that Pools of Purity in the Valley of the Four Winds is an awesome place to farm charms. The razorback snappers have very little health so you can draw heaps of them and just AoE, they also have a really fast respawn timer so you can do this endlessly. Hope this helps! :)

Comment by Superdude312

Confirmed february 2014 that Stormstout Brewery is still the best place to farm these !
See: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9sDX0Dm6ohE

Just faceroll the rabbits and don't go to the 2nd boss. Spot in the video is the easiest spot to kill them all.
Have fun farming.

Comment by Niksann40

if i kill one and my friend helped me and he is in the group will we both get charm if it drops or only me or him will get charm?

Comment by Rakenaid

As of 2/12/2014 Unstable Corruption within Throne of the Tides will no longer grant you Lovely Charm!

As of 2/14/2016 aka 6.0.3 the instructions below regarding farming Lovely Charm from Hopling & Bopper within Stormstout Brewery is no longer viable:

However, there is a new spot to farm Lovely Charm from Hopling and Bopper within Stormstout Brewery

The Strategy:

For the love of all things (no pun intended) don't forget to get a Lovely Charm Collector's Kit prior to starting this farm!

You will need to clear your way to Ook-Ook by killing the two Sodden Hozen Brawler and the three Inflamed Hozen Brawler. Note that these Inflamed Hozen Brawler can inflict Fiery Illusion which may be troublesome for casters.

You will have to kill a total of 40 Hozen before Ook-Ook will spawn. Use Rolling Barrel which will deal Brew Explosion to whatever you crash into, thus significantly speeding up this process.

Once Ook-Ook spawns go ham on him. Watch out for his frontal Ground Pound which is avoidable by simple moving out from the front of him. He also stacks Going Bananas so down him as quickly as possible.

After downing Ook-Ook proceed to the stairs where you will find Hopling, Bopper and occassionally a Hopper. You can stand at the base of the steps (the area right out side of Ook-Ook's crashed party and farm them. Countless Lovely Charm from these little guys and they are easy to down.

Hopper uses Explosive Brew which could be a minor setback for casters however they are not as common as the Hopling and Bopper

Should you hapen to get overwhelmed with Hopling's and Bopper's just Smash! them by using a Big Ol' Hammer to send them flying to the heavens. However doing this will not grant any Lovely Charm.

If you engage Hoptallus this will cease the endless spawn of Hopling and Bopper.

Be prepared for a hefty repair bill. Roughly 1% armor degradation per minute farming here. Jeeves would be handy, but nonetheless you can head to town to repair and convert Lovely Charm to Lovely Charm Bracelet and turn them in for Love Token which stack up to 250.

Downing Ook-Ook will not save you to this instance. Should you happen to zone out, use your Hearthstone or log out you will have to restart the entire process from scratch!

I am currently able to solo and farm this on my 90 Rogue using Fan of Knives and Crimson Tempest while keeping up via .

10 minutes = 100 Lovely Charm
30 minutes = 300 Lovely Charm

Don't forget to do the Daily Quests as they will each grant you with 5xLove Token which equate to 50xLovely Charm. You can earn a total of 30xLove Token a day which = 300xLovely Charm!

I will continue to update this as I farm more information.

Comment by 1004898

Being a mount hunter myself I jumped at the chance to obtain this beautiful mount.
By far I found Stormstout Brewery strategy to be the fastest and easiest way to obtain the Lovely Charms.
Without completing any dailies before hand I worked out that I needed roughly 2700 Lovely Charms.
10 charms = 1 Bracelet = 1 Love Token

It has currently taken me 1hr 10mins to collect a 1035 Lovely Charms
I highly, highly recommend doing this alone. I tried farming with a friend and the rate at which I got the charms dropped dramatically seeing as we were both getting them. Also the mobs seemed smaller and came at us a lot slower.
If you can solo this bad-boy.

As a Survival Hunter I found this extremely easy. I simply placed down a explosive trap and ice trap, then spammed away with multi-shot, cobra shot and glaive toss. The mobs drop like flies. I also took the talent Exhilaration to self-heal when needed to save running away and eating.

The only thing I changed was the place in which I killed the hoplings, hopper's and bopper's. Rather than sit at the bottom of the stairs just after Ook Ook I stood on the second platform right in front of the door, that leads to the room just before Hoptallus. This place is absolutely ideal for any class, especially those with good AOE spells.
The only downside is that while the stream of mobs in continuous your armour durability will drop faster.
It is a good idea to invest in Jeeves though you can leave to repair with the downside of having to restart the instance over from the beginning.

Happy Hunting!

Comment by Toreadores

As few of you pointed out, the Stormstout Brewery is a very good place to farm charms. But there is another place which can grant you the same or even more amount of charms than the Brewery. Go to Silken fields and start killing "Tiny mutated silkmoths". There are a lot of them, they are on groups, they have only 27k hp and respawn really fast. I found this by accident when I was making my daily Imperial silk there and one group of these creatures attacked me and when I AoE them I receive 4 charms (the group contains 9 or10 silkmoths). Very good place especially for non 90s who can't run the instance by themselves. And nobody was farming them, probably people don't know that spot yet (and I play in Full population realm). For 10 minutes I've gathered 144 charms.

Please excuse me if I have some spelling or grammar mistakes in my post, my english is not my native language.

Comment by VidiusGnome

What I Found useful for level 90`s with decent gear was going into ruins of gui-lai halls and in there when inside go into the building and turn to your left and kill the mobs that spawn in there, Great spawn time, alot in each room and also now and again a rare named Bloodtip spawns and he casts an ability which calls all his minions if you will so kill his minions easily but try not to kill him otherwise you will have to wait again and if possible go invisible and restart it again when he is on low health its a really efficient way of farming lovely charms!

Comment by Diaoswings

Best place to farm is definitely in scenarios.

Comment by 1223569

I had a ton of success farming charms on the timeless isle with the crane packs.

Comment by Malakh1

The best place I've found is in the Crypt of Forgotten Kings. You can get quite a lot of them there. I made a guide showing how it's done:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NPHkai9Fccc&list=UUu5kBYovDP7BWlpyXcKQFHw

This is for patch 5.4.2 as of 2/17/2014.

Hope it helps out!

Comment by Ryndir

If you can't find anyone to queue with you for the Crypt of Forgotten Kings scenario, then another good alternative is the Silken Fields in the Valley of the Four Winds. There are nine (9) packs of Tiny Mutated Silkmoths, each moth has approximately 27,000 health, and, they don't hit too hard. The respawn time of these moths is fantastic, and, it lowers competition -- personally, I farmed roughly 600-800 charms per hour depending on how focused and determined I was.

In essence, you can see (based on simple math) how long it will take you to obtain the mount using this spot and receiving the same amount of charms as listed above.

600 charms/hour
2700/600 = 4.5 hours

700 charms/hour
2700/700 = 3.9 hours

800 charms/hour
2700/800 = 3.4 hours

Comment by 1226047

Followed the previous advice of some for Stormstout Brewery dungeon....was beautiful! I got a little less than 600 in 1 hour. That's roughly 10 charms a minute! (plus/minus a few)

I ran it alone with my 90 demon warlock....Kill the red hozen, but skip all the yellow until the big room with the rolling barrels. These guys come in packs, but don't hit too hard. You have to kill 40 of them, then the rest depart, and the 1st boss shows. He was a little harder alone, but just called a couple of my extra demons, and cleared him. Pass the dancing monkeys, towards the door on right. On the first landing, you will run into the hoppers and vermin....they are NEVERENDING! :) Stay on that first landing, otherwise you will pull too many at once. FYI...don't use the hammers, as that knocks them off the landing, it does not kill them = no charms!

As a demon lock, once I hit metamorphis and changed to demon form, I kept on my AoE and drain life to heal. Stayed in demon form the entire time while the bunnies continually came to give me charms!

Comment by Soybeanie

These feel impossible to obtain on low levels. Why am I only getting 1 per 10 kills? I'm the only thing attack the mobs.

Comment by topazg

if youre only missing a small amount (20~40) you can go to TI and take the purple crystal - sprites of all sizes drop them and in a metter of 30 seconds you get between 20 to 40. sadly you can only preform this once a day

Comment by Nishika

Shadowmoon Valley 37,22 - underground, Carnivorous Squirrel. Go crazy, you can farm hundreds in a very short period of time.

Comment by drjefferson

a good farmspot in 2015 for Lovely Charm

Video: Farm Lovely Charm in Gorgrond

Video: Farm Lovely Charm in Scarlet Monastery
(dont destroy the Pile of Corpses!) With a hunter (ilv 610+) u can go afk. Your char can not log out because it is constantly in fight. Your pet will do the rest. Empty your bags and go to sleep. Every morning i have about 6k Lovely Charm in my bags. ^^

Comment by Casn

Several things you could be doing while farming these (aside from just doing regular dalies/dungeons)
- Bodyguard rep if farming in Draenor
- Pandaria dalies, if for some reason you want to do them (rep/achievements/gold)
- Farming rep/coins on Timeless Isle
- Doing MoP scenarios, for achi or something

In particular, angry/scary sprites can get you around 50 charms during that one minute you can kill them

Comment by ladymysla

For 2015
If you have a level 90 character, going and killing Ancestral Guardian's in Obelisk of the new moon is an amazing way to farm them. They are not able to kill them al before they start spawning again. The embersilk and greens aren't shabby either if you want some embersilk bags. Good luck!

P.s. if you do go this route, kill the guardians before you kill the Troopers. They will despawn otherwise.

Comment by Sarthorius

Now We have a motive to farm Draenor Reputations ha! Or follower Reputations too! Get a good spot to farm, round weak mobs, and kill em all. Me myself I'm going to Lost Veil Anzu, so I farm the Arakkoas rep too.

You can at least farm 40 of these, 10 to create a bracelet, one for each faction leader to do the daily, and get the tokens.

Comment by Kiyoine

Very very very annoying that these still only stack to 40. >:\

I've been farming animals in Nagrand for Hearty Soup Bones to turn in to Meatgut for some gold at the same time. Sumptuous Furs and various meat mats are just bonus. I can see this being bothersome for high-pop realms, so I'm sure there will be other good areas in Draenor found soon.
*edit*
The carnivorous squirrels in Shadowmoon Valley seem like a great option - if you're not beaten to it. I tried Scarlet Monastery and loved it as a feral druid. Both cat and bear form have plenty of natural dodge, and with Ysera passive talent ticking heals, you can tab out safely for minutes at a time, tab back in, swipe a few times ... rinse and repeat.

Before Nagrand I tried Stormstout Brewery Heroic in Pandaria. I got charms from the first couple mobs - big elite hozen - but the virmin packs I was hopeful about gave no charms, despite being green L90s. 92+ is probably the sweet spot.

Comment by volatar

In 6.0.3, another good place to farm lovely charms and even work on Wingman/Wingmen is in Spires of Arak killing Stingtail Worker or Stingtail Drone near 59, 45. It is SW of the Talon Watch flight path. They have between 15-23k HP and spawn relatively fast. Killing these mobs will spawn Sunderthorn. You can do this and avoid her as long as you stay near the 2 trees killing the weaker mobs. I checked out the Carnivorous Squirrel camping spot and it was always packed. Even when I jumped servers, the cave was packed with people camping them.

Comment by elonoil

Good spots for Warlords of Draenor

Zombified Corpse in Scarlet Monastery (heroic) give charms: attack, but do not kill Pile of Corpses and you will get 5 zombies per 10 seconds. As a hunter, you can even AFK while your pet kills the zombies (probably also other pet classes). Hotfixed
As already stated, Carnivorous Squirrel in Shadowmoon Valley 37 22 and Stoneshard Grubling in Gorgrond 52 71 give charms as well, but you might have to share them with other players
All places suitable for bodyguard reputation (since you can get charms and rep at the same time); same applies for other Draenor reputation farming spots
Hoppers and Boppers in Stormstout Brewery do not work

Comment by BekkaBuu

For WoD patch 6.0.3, i found an awesome place near the place located at GLOOMSHADE GROVE, SHADOWMOON VALLY there are 3 trees on the map and all through that area are those Podling creatures, they are very easy to kill and dont do hardly any damage to a level 100 and they give ALOT of Lovely Charms! There is an abundance of them and they respawn rather quickly! I got over 200 in like 30 mins.

Comment by endnight

After little over hour of farming in Shadowmoon Valley 37,22 underground, Carnivorous Squirrels i have 560 charms enough for the 4 dailys each day for the 14 days the event is up

doing them in group will get you 2-3 charms every 3 groups of squirrels

doing them solo gets you 2-3 charms per group

monk taunting statue can cause you not to get charms was in group with monk they were getting one for every 5 i got without statue it was even

alone its worth it even with 2 people in cave farming each spawn point its fastest way i found its better to invite people they get tired of low drop rate and they move on

Comment by Beefcube

So they don't drop every kill? Last time I farmed for them it seemed much faster.

Comment by PacoPaco

This method netted me about 300 in 10 mins.

Head to Gorgrond 50.11, 73.46 and kill Stoneshard Grublings. I was lucky enough to have three other people - one at each of the spawns. The spawns are all linked (when one group dies, another respawns) so having other people there meant instant spawns.

Happy farming!

Comment by ilostmahbucket

58, 45 @ Sunderthron rare, southwest of Talon Watch, in Spires of Arak by far the best spot to farm these. (Tried the others, Grublings not bad)

You don't need to rely on a group here but you can group up for speed. Assign a bodyguard to help you via the barracks, Vivianne preferred.

If your bags get full convert Lovely Charms to bracelets and mail the bracelets to an alt for storage.

Comment by tankerzao

HOT TIP For Hunters -
Put your pet on Assist (BE CAREFUL WHILE CLEANING THE ROOM 'CAUSE OF PET'S THUNDERSTOMP), Tenacity Specced. Go to Scarlet Monastery Heroic. Clean the first room, let the Pile of Corpses UP. Find a spot away from the Pile of Corpses, Set your pet to a specific place and stack on him . Be Happy. While your pet kills the Zombies you just need to move each 30 min to not get disconnected. Use Spirit Bond as well for your pet to generate threat on the Pile of Corpses.

http://i.imgur.com/5gFi4ck.jpg

EDIT: Just to clarify. I'm getting about 10 Charms per minute (1 Bracelet). The drop rate isn't as good as heavily farming, but if you want to do something else, you can, while your pet farms.

Comment by dogfoundchainsaw

Garrison Invasions are a very good source for farming as well.

Comment by ZeRegent

Might not be as fast as other suggestions but if you're looking to farm for Bronze Whelping from the Time-Locked Box, you could hop down to the Blasted Lands and kill some more Iron Horde! The Okril'lon Hold has fast respawns but you do have to move more than two steps to get to the other groups.

Comment by Hordrim

Another decent place to farm for both these and some bodyguard rep is around 50.80 in Gorgorond, in The Ruins of the First Bastion.

Just kill the packs of Frenzied Foragers around that area. They have a decent spawn rate and a chance to also drop the parts for the auctioneer in the Garrison.

Comment by Roguezs

NOTE: This small guide is only for people who are level 90-94.

Greetings,

I have come here to tell you my little secret spot to farm easy lovely charm bracers.
I'm talking about Razorback Snapper.
These small buggers give a ton of Lovely Charm and have a really fast respawn.

Well what's so good about this spot?
I have camped this spot on my level 91 balance druid for 1 hour 57 minutes and 14 seconds and I got 2920 Lovely Charm.

Note that I am on a PVP server and got camped for roughly 15 minutes before I could move on again.

So I hope that you enjoyed my small guide and good luck getting your Swift Lovebird.

Lovely Charm -> Lovely Charm Bracelet -> Love Token, good farmspots:

Comment by MrCalypso

Saw someone mention going to Blackrock Depths and farming the large room before the last two bosses. Well they never dropped any for me and I also couldn't seem to get it to set to heroic to test that theory. Headed to Scarlet Monastery now to test that out as I'm only lvl 77.

EDIT: AAAAAAND You have to be lvl 90 to enter Scarlet Monastery on Heroic....great.

EDIT 2: SO I found a place I'm happy with on my server. Throne of Kil'jaeden at the very tippy top of Hellfire Peninsula. The Felblood Initiate seem to have a very fast respawn rate and I basically just hop from one tower to the next on my mount while gathering them up then just wipe them with Blood Boil. If I take flight though with my mount they seem to lose agro on me so you gotta stay on the ground when grouping them up.

My strategy has been this: at the south-most side close to Thrallmar there is one big green tower with four Suspended Terrorguard at each corner. I ride in a figure eight around the two on the west, wipe, then a figure eight around the two towers on the east, wipe, repeat...THEIR RESPAWN RATE IS THAT FAST. Hope it works for someone else as well as it's working for me.

I'm pretty happy with it and hope to see that mount soon. I'm lvl 77 btw

Comment by NorlandoDarrow

Invasions are great for farming. With just one invasion, I got enough for all four bracelets.

Comment by darktsuki

I just feel the need to say that if you're like me, playing WoW still on Mists of Pandaria while the most recent expansion is Warlords of Draenor, you probably won't be able to enjoy the event at all because you can barely farm the Lovely Charms, not even in the hotspots noted here. I got about 16 so far but I can't tell what the criteria is anymore, since my toon is lvl 9O and the infinite thrash from Stormstout Brewery did not grant me a single Charm even after some minutes farming.

Comment by cleric670

For level 100, Nuizao Temple... make sure you grab one of the Kushong mobs if you need something to spread dots with <ahem enhance sham> everything else dies in a oneshot usually. Mobs respawn in packs faster than 3 people farming can kill and I just got 45 charms in under 5min.

Comment by perbrethil

If you want a fast WOD farming spot (as Alliance), the packs of podlings just east of the alliance garisson are very abundant, spawn fast and are easy and quick to kill. Takes me not even 10 minutes for 10 charms

Comment by LabKitty

Best farm spot?

Timeless Isle

Comment by Selim

This does have a chance to drop from kills you make in RBGs as well. I'm not sure about normal BGs though, if anyone can confirm that they drop from all honor kills?

Comment by Irishhooligan

If you don't want to compete with others for charms, go see Lorewalker Fu at the Seat of Knowledge and queue up for Dagger in the Dark Once you make it to the cave, pop all the eggs, and just massacre everything in sight. When everything is dead, leave the instance and queue again. Easily soloable at 100.

Comment by slemdorull

Just released a video on how to farm these very fast (10-20+ a minute)! Enjoy!

Comment by 00Zee

I'm actually writing this as I'm farming the lovely charms.

As mentioned in a comment below, by far the best place I have seen to farm as a level 100 is the graveyard in Scarlet Monastary (hc). There are five piles of corpses which keep spawning zombies from them as long as you don't kill the piles.

I killed all of the Scarlet folks surrounding the five piles, and then went and stood a little ways in front of the first boss. I'm doing this as a frost mage, using my frozen orb CD.

I use my Ice Barrier on CD, and when my frozen orb is up, I pop that. I make sure I'm stood far enough away from the first pile of bodies so that I don't accidentally kill one. Your pet will do it's thing and attack a few zombies, but it can only take one down with 2 hits, so it doesn't help a whole lot.

One thing to note as a mage is DO NOT USE YOUR MIRROR IMAGES! They will take it upon themselves to run off and kill all the piles of corpses, which is not very useful.

Happy farming!

Comment by imbam4g3

How to get 100+ Lovely Charm in 1 minute:
1) Have a spammable, instant-cast AoE.
2) Be level 100 (91+ with decent gear may also work, YMMV).
3) Go to Timeless Isle and head for the tree with the sprites (coords 44 74).
4) More often than not, the purple crystal will be up. Click it.
5) Enjoy 1 minute of all-you-can-eat one-shottable sprites.
7) Profit!

Comment by Bonito

The easy way to get the charms if you are a beastmaster hunter. Go to Scarlet Monastery, activate the skelaton piles by shooting at them, set your pet to assist... and relax. The pet will do all the work and you do not have to run around killing things yourself. :) The skelatons just keep coming, so you can stand there as long as you like. Takes a bit of time, but it beats hurting fingers from running around shooting for hours on end. And if you do not have to heal at all, you can just leave it on while you go do other things.

Comment by Casn

Charm Collector says there is 34% chance with each valid kill to grant charm.
Simple math says that you get 34 charms per 100 kills, on average.

You also get 10 bodyguard rep per valid kill. Any kill that does not give bodygiard rep also doe not have chance to grant charm.
Put those two things together, and you get 34 charms per 1000 bodyguard rep, 340 charms per 10 000 rep (one 'step' of bodyguard reputation), and 1020 charms for getting bodyguard all the way to wingman from 0.

If you want to farm rep with bodyguard, it would be a waste not to do so while you can also get charms at the same time.

Comment by Reyke9

Blizzard is gonna shove their giant boot up my ass for this but....

Found a way to auto grind this if you are a paladin.

1. Go prot spec
2. Equip Libram of vindication and unequip the rest
3. Go scarlet monastery, kill the scarlet bros, taunt the skeleton piles.
4. Stand at a reasonable distance and wait for the zombies to come and hit you.
5. "trinket proccs" - (kills zombies, heals u back up)
6. Wait 12 seconds
7. It repeats itself
8. Enjoy ur charms.

After about a hour got about 800~1000 charm and didnt click a single ability. Sorry blizzard, never meant to break your game !

EDIT: Hotfixed Feb 18/16 6pm PST. Zombies no longer drop charms :(

Comment by AllureMG

Can someone explain WHY people need to "farm" these charms? You can't sell them, you can't mail them. As far as I can tell you can only turn in one bracelet per day to each of the home city leaders which = 40ish charms? That doesn't require massive "farming" imo....maybe I'm missing something?

Comment by Sarsoman

H Scarlet Monastery strat for Destro Warlocks using your Abyssal:

Notable Talents: Searing Flames (Optional)/GoSup/Demonic Servitude

1). Aggro all of the Pile of Corpses using Rain of Fire (and canceling the aura before it takes off too much damage)
2). Move your Abyssal (using the 'move to' pet command) to a comfy spot and put it in defensive stance
3). ?
4). Profit!

Since your Abyssals immolation aura will oneshot just about everything and you take barely any damage, you can set this up and go do something else if you so please, I've gotten 300 Lovely Charms in about 20 minutes. I come back to my computer and Ember Tap just to be safe every 5-10 minutes.

Comment by Koalbree

If your character is level 100 your targets to get the Lovely Charm need to be level 90 or higher, I got a few in Draenor and then I soloed the Heroic Mogu'shan Palace dungeon in Vale of Eternal Blossoms Pandaria and got plenty of them! I have not tried them yet but I assume you would get plenty in other Heroic Pandaria dungeons:)
And when you kill to get a "Lovely Charm" you don't have to loot to find it, they show up in your bags automatically.(##RESPBREAK##)8##DELIM##Kangi##DELIM##

Comment by pikarie

The best place I found is the raid Heart of Fear In Dread Wastes (entrance at 40, 35).
I do all the way to first boss. The trick is not to kill it! I prefer to die at the boss to come back quickly. Since there is always green drops, your repair are paid :)

Got 24 x Lovely Charm for around 3:30 min. (If you round up to 4min it's a ratio of 360 x per hour!)

Pros:
-It's an instance so no competition with other people for kills.
-You can reset it and do it again and again.
-You get some drop that pay your repair bill when sold
-Small room so you don't have to go far to get your Lovely Charm :)

Cons
-I didn't test it with other character but I was lvl 100 ilvl 703 shaman elemental when doing it so maybe it's a bit difficult if you don't have the gear?

Comment by Zaxio2010

So i found like 2 ways easy to farm these
First Scarlet monastery a Prot pally equiped with Discordant Chorus trinket and Holy shield talent is very powerful combo for AFK farms there the trinket procs from the autodamage who this talent provides and you never get more than like 10 zombies on top on your head
Second if you do not know you can solo queue to any MoP LFR So instead to waste a time to get in to regular instance clear trash and run back you can just queue enter clear the trash leave requeue again.The NPC who allows you to enter in Pandaria LFR is located where the archeology ones are in the Vale of Eternal Blossoms

Comment by Iriador

Okay I'm telling you all a HUGE secret.

You CAN mail the charm bracelet made with Lovely Charms.

You will need wrapping paper; the color is not important...

But I use Red Ribbon Wrapping Paper from the General Goods Vendor in Orgrimmar he's located in the Valley of Strength in the Building next to the Inn.

The wrapping paper changes the item so that it can be mailed to anyone! This will also work on any item that does NOT stack.

Rate up if this helps anyone ^___^

Comment by Shauolin

Easy farming mode for Prot Paladins.
With the Libram of Vindication

Enter Scarlet Monastery on Heroic
As soon as you enter the instance run around and kill the 3 Scarlet mobs next to each Pile of Corpses DO NOT DESTROY THE PILES
Exit the instance and remove your gear, leave on rings, neck and back for that little extra stamina.
Go back in and now run around the bone piles taunting them, the Zombified Corpse will start spawning and chase you.
Position yourself in a suitable area that your Trinket AOE effect wont destroy a bone pile and let the zombies flock to you.
Simply stand still and take damage
Your trinket will proc at 76% health killing all the adds and heal you to near full health. It will do this every 12 seconds and with no armor on your health will drop a lot quicker meaning you dont waste zombies as they fall over themselves and die after a period of time.
Do nothing more, simply stand still and the mobs will continue to flock to you, once you hit 76% health again the trinket will proc and again one shot all the mobs and heal you back to health. Rinse and Repeat.

I farmed the required needed for the mount in a few hours by doing nothing but standing still.

Comment by Congelatore

For those of you reading comments telling you to go AFK and let a pet kill mobs from you, do NOT.

This type of clever use of game mechanics is considered bannable by Blizzard

Comment by Omegabeast

For players with ranged abilities, such as my DK I just tested this on, in the Mogu'shan Palace on heroic you can stay inside and gain a bunch of lovely charms without competition. After the Trial of the King encounter and your descent below, there's an area where bats fly overhead. You can pick them off with ranged abilities and build up lovely charms that way.

I'm not sure how fast of a method this is compared to others mentioned, but 1) there are no other players impeding your progress, and 2) there seems to be an endless stream of bats, so you don't need to move locations or reset the instance.

Comment by Javelin3o4

Apparently the SM zombies have been patched and no longer give charms.

Comment by bipolargirl

Don't bother trying to farm these in Scarlet Monastery. The Zombified corpses no longer drop charms. Hotfixed Feb 18/16 6pm PST.

Comment by thekaizi

The best place I've found so far and haven't seen anyone else farming is in Gorgrond at 57.84, 56.11. It varies from 16-19 per minute (960-1140/hr). Go to this lake with your best aoe class( I used my demo lock and just kept hellfire up in demo form) and quickly kill all the Gorgrond Water Snakes then realm hop. They take about a min to respawn so if you hop with cross realm assist to all available servers then clear history you can just keep going. I hope this makes someone's grind better, enjoy =D

Also I did try out other spots before this, but even in a group at spires I was only getting 7/min and there wasn't any servers where I could solo it left, too many people there

Edit: Sorry guys, they seem to have completely removed the drops off these =l had a friend confirm as well

Comment by mykro9

They seem to have nerfed the Scarlet Monastery zombies. I went in at 6:00am EST and they were no longer dropping at all.

Comment by locarto

Ladies and gents! A sad day upon us. Scarlet Monastery has been nerfed. But there is good news!

Probably the best place now, aside from that nest place in Draenor, is the area north-west of Kri'vess in Townlong Steppes. There are a bunch of Deadtalker Corpsedefilers with a large quantity of little souls around them. Kill them grants lovely charms! And they have a short respawn! Exact coords are 50, 50 and from there they can be easily farmed.

That being said, thank Mr. Immortel71 for the original posting of this spot in the guide of Farming Lovely Charms in Warlords. Or at least original from what I can see. Regardless, thank him.

Im just trying to ease the pain of not being able to farm in SM. So enjoy this new spot! And im sorry if you knew about this spot and other people are going to invade. Now quickly! Go forth and farm before Blizz nerfs this too!

Comment by Sonnillion

For level 100, I would say best farming place for these is Timeless Isle. I did not counted how many I got, but I did noticed that anywhere else I got less than Timeless Isle.

I would say that for every 10 drops in Timeless Isle, I got 1 elsewhere.

And as a bonus, you can get nice gear for alts (^_^). Be that for cosmetic reasons or stats.

Comment by greednut

If you still wanna farm some lovely charms, Overlook Ruins in Gorgrond is a good place,
those Stoneshard Grublings with about 5K Health are very easy to kill .
you could farm about 60 lovely charms in 5mins, thats nearly 800 in 1 hour.

Comment by Loremastertappa

Darksting Cave ( 52.18 76.74) in Gorgrond is a great place to farm charms. There are only about 10 enemies in there, but they respawn before you can empty the cave out. It is the same cave Mother Araneae spawns.

Comment by Incandio

A good spot for some retro farming is the Horrid March in Dread Wastes, at the end near the wall, although bear in mind the mobs are level 90 so this year's event (2016) will be the last year it's viable for max level players.

The Mantid army here obviously needs to be almost permanently present for storytelling reasons, so the respawn rate is very high. The mobs also have regular loot tables, so drop Dread Amber Shards, greens, windwool cloth, motes of harmony, etc. Just run up and down between the wall and Panic Clutch. Even if you one shot all the mobs, by the time you get back they're respawning. If you're super fast you can even just go to the lake nearby where there are packs of scorpids, which drop trash but you'll still get 2-3 charms per pack.

If you're ranged and feeling super lazy you can just stand on one of the talons coming out the ground and dot the mantid that fly past, although this will be slower.

Domination point in Krasarang Wilds is also good if you want to kill two birds with one stone. I got one thousand domination point commissions in one hour. If you're just interested in charms go to Daxil's Dig. Again, the respawn rate is very high and you will never run out of mobs, although the loot is less profitable than Dread Wastes.

Comment by Bradosh

Hi all,

I have to share with you all probably the best ever way to farm Lovely Charms.
As a lvl100 go to instance Siege Of Niuzao Temple, go to third boss General Pa'valak, pull him, dps down until he goes first midphase and starts summoning the ads. Kill all the ads, they will give you tons of Lovely Charms. Wait to boss to go to second midphase and do the same.
After he finishes second midphase, just Shadowmeld (I was playing with a druid), or whatever else you have to reset the boss (You can reset the boss simply by running back towards the entrance of the boss zone). Wait for him to spawn again and repeat. And so on, and on, and on....
In 2 pulls (took me few mins) I have received around 80 Charms.

Enjoy!

Comment by SonicCow

Looks like all the high density spots below have been nerfed as of this morning.

1. Shadowmoon Valley 37,22 underground, Carnivorous Squirrel.
2. Spires of Arak 58, 45
3. Gorgrond 52, 70.5
4. Frostfire Ridge 63.7, 32.8
5. Talador 59, 79

From what I can tell, if the mob you are killing doesn't drop loot, it will no longer drop a charm.

Comment by got2lurveit

As of Last night 2/23/16 Carnivorous Squirrels no longer give charms due to over farming.

Comment by got2lurveit

They nerfed the egg spot in Frostridge as well as the squirrels. Are there any spots left ?

Comment by ladyofthemasque

As per patch 6.2.3 (or at least February 22nd, 2016), most of the places listed don't work, but if you're lvl 100, go to Mogu'shan Vaults (below the lorekeepers in the Vale, Pandaria), set it to Heroic, go inside, defeat the first boss, go downstairs...

...and the spot where the bats come flying out, start targetting the bats. You will need a ranged attack to pull them down, plus an area-of-effect (aoe) or damage-over-time (dot) to farm them effectively. But the Lovely Charms will drop at a decent rate. (At least until Blizzard nerfs this, too.)

Fire Mage, Time Bomb, and an occasional arcane shield to keep them from pecking me to death works wonders for a mage. Your Mileage May Vary, yadda yadda.

Comment by AeraSteele

Found a good place to farm these after the last WoD hotfix. There is a wide open area in Frostfire Ridge between Grom'gar and your garrison with a bunch of spiders, a few gronn, and some beasts. Fast respawn rates, got about 30 charms in 5 minutes.

Comment by TronhildaMain

I found a really good place to farm charms that does not include minions or other mobs with no loot. In Townlong Steppes, over at Sra'Vess there are these areas where bug dudes are channeling some nonsense at these spires looking things. They are part of the daily quests for Shado Pan rep stuff so they respawn pretty quickly and the drop rate isn't bad. You don't have to move around too much, and if you make a circuit of a small area, the 1st group will be back by the time you kill the 2nd group. You will also get a ton of windwool cloth and some motes of harmony plus greens to vendor. It's worth a little time and you get some decent cash if you stick around.

Another good place, if anyone remembers farming Black Prince rep - yeah, nuff said. If you didn't do the cloak quest, find someone in your guild or trade chat to whisper where I'm talking about, or PM me - Tronhilda@Dragonblight

Just remembered another place - barrens in Kalimdor, just south of the sludge fen - if you remember the cataclysm event when the barrens was torn asunder - yeah, those guys.

Comment by linny

Was farming podlings in Gorgorond and Shadowmoon Valley after the Scarlet Monastery nerf but now podlings are no longer dropping charms either. Sigh. Killed the bats like others were talking about in Mogushan Palace but its slow going and only works for people with ranged dps. About the only good place left though.

Comment by Lusiferdeath

Can anyone confirm that the Giant Cave Bats have been nerfed? :( Well there goes that if so..

*unless its only me, they do not drop anymore*

Comment by whimsy82

I've tried a lot of different spots but so far the Horrid March in the Dread Wastes has been the best. Although it's still pretty slow. It's just been the most convenient so far.

Quite a few mobs if you just walk back and forth through the dark crevice you see on the map. Start at the wall between The Valley of the Four Winds and Dread Wastes and just keep walking and killing everything. I had 12 drop in about 2 minutes.

Good luck!

Edit: I should add that there are mobs of small guys called Shek'zeer Swarmborn that don't appear to drop the charms.

Comment by Alleyena

There seems to have been a nerf on the droprate of these, so the best way I have found so far is this:

Go to Mogushan Palace Heroic (entrance in The Vale Of Eternal Blossoms) and after the first boss go down the stairs and kill the bats. Constant respawn. Handy if you have a monk with a statue so the bats fly down then just aoe them down. Will work if you're level 100 as you are within the 10 levels to collect the charms. Happy farming :)

Comment by bessiq

Got the garrison daily quest today: Death to Hivelord Ik'rix!. Still needed a few more charms so I was hoping the Icespine Drones he hatches during the fight dropped them, and they do! Decided to try and keep farming them after I killed him, and all you have to do is run over the eggs and they pop out. Eggs respawn fairly quickly and the area is small.

Warning: the eggs explode and damage you, as well as reducing your movement speed briefly. As a feral druid the eggs did ~14-16k each, so nothing to sneeze at but doable. If you can't heal YMMV farming these efficiently.

The drones themselves do barely any damage and are easy to kill, and you can farm them without having the quest.

Comment by Sarthorius

Blizzard: BAD NEWS EVERYONE! That monastery was merely a setback. Trollfix boss hits the hammer down again! Last week's maintenance I made a Trollfix on these nasty pests so they no longer drop Lovely Charm (lucky me, who had farmed all I needed on previous week of the event for the Faction Leader's daylies).

Just an ordinary Trollfix, but hey, on the other hand, GOOD NEWS EVERYONE, they do still give bodyguard reputation heh !. Just, don't send them after us... okay?

Comment by Hiddenboomstick

Did these get a nerf to the drop rate in 6.2? I'm getting a terribly low rate compared to the 20-30 per minute some comments are saying you could do last year

For 110s the falcosaur areas work well.

Comment by Ludmillaa

For 2017 the best way to get these is to do a Dreanor bonus objective (see Securing Draenor.) Just stay until you have all 40 (love charms) for one day - it shouldn't take more than 30 minutes. It does work for level 110.

Comment by Twaron

For this year I did Everbloom in Gorgrond (WoD). Nhc or HC doesn't matter, because the mobs are in both modes level 100.
Just clear all the trash, especially the Dreadpetal packs, to the first boss (Witherbark), take the ramp back to the entrance, follow the normal way (not the shortcut everyone was taking back in WoD) to the second boss (Ancient Protectors), while also clearing most of the trash (i didn't kill the ones inside the tree-houses). Mount up and run out of the instance, reset, repeat.
Took me ~4 mins per run and yielded ~ 43 Charms per run. So basically 10/min.
Probably not the best place, but at least a decent one to farm the charmes.

Comment by cyberfrog77

Are there good farm spots in 7.1.5?

Comment by tsawwassen

Mostly just starting a thread for Legions, please add comments for the new patch if you find a good spot.

---Things I have noticed so far---
Drop rate seems to be much less then previous years.

If the enemy does not have a box around the name (ie a lesser enemy) it wont drop a charm.

I tried doing a murlock group in Highmountain caves at 41,24 and it was ok. You can get drops from a raid group. The problem I noticed was with a large raid group, if you don't tag the murlock, you can't have a chance at the spawn.

I also tried the falcosaur spawn that is up today. Like I said above, the lesser enemies don't drop charms so not the best.

Comment by Viper998

As of now, normal Everbloom was the fastest for me. I got ~50 charms per reset. Very fast very easy. Obviously there is the 10 instance per hour limit, but this is still extremely fast.

Note: There is an annoying 10 second stun that happens from time to time, but other than that it's perfect.
Just clear everything up to the first and second boss, run out, and reset.

Comment by Kiki0

Everbloom Normal
I've farmed this today at Dun Modr (EU) with a Frost DK (big area dmg). I've done this for almost an hour, until I reached maximun instances entered, got more than 800 charms in that time with translates in 80 bracelets.
With a 110 char, you have to set dungeon to normal. Go to the Everbloom, mount up and kill all the mobs from the entrance to the first (Witherbark) and then the second (Ancient Protectors) bosses.
I went to the Witherbark route first, from the entrance pull everything in the order the pic shows, try not to take the 2 pulls next to the hut and dont pull the sleeping mandragora, he will get pulled by the other mobs later because if you do he will follow you briefly and then come back to his spot (you dont want that to happen because is 1 less charm chance ), so past the mandragora take the pull on the left and then pull the 3 packs channeling the boss, follow up to the right pulling the 2 packs of golden flowers in there, then jump down to the hut marked black and pull the 2 packs left and the ones in the hut. Then wait OUTSIDE, its important not to stay inside the hut because several packs of mobs will bug and go back to their spot, so stay in the ramp, outside the hut. Wait for all of them there and AoE them down. Thats about 35-50 charms.

Secound route is easier, from the entrance go to the right side (mounted), take all the mobs all the way to the second boss, take the 2 guys sitting in the hut, dont take the sleeping one (because he will just aggro but wont follow you), get out and keep pulling until you get to the second boss. This route is easier and they will all come to melee way faster than the first route, kill them, loot, mount up and get out. Thats about 30 charms or so.

So roughly 50-55 charms per run. Each run takes about 5-6 minutes and you can repeat until you reach the maximum instances. Also some green items, grey stuff, all of it worth 300-400g on vendor.

http://imgur.com/6GZ9puV

With the bracelets you make from the runs you can turn them in one by one for one Love Token or do the 4 daily quests each day (more profit) for the leaders of each faction, they require 1 bracelet and in exchange will give you 5 tokens. With the tokens you can buy the 2 new toys (100 and 270 tokens), the old toy (10 tokens), 2 pets (40 tokens each) and the mount (270 tokens)
The mount is what we want if you want to make money, it's worth about 50k and you can buy several of them by the time the event ends by doing this runs. Store them for a couple months and sell them during all the year until the next event. If you find the AH with lots of mounts you can also try to buy the pets and try to make some profit there.

I hope this works for you!

edit: tested with 2 more chars, for the same amount of time farming got more than 800 charm.
edit2: don't downvote the coments below, they are helpful for most of the people doing this and asking questions here, downvoting them will confuse people instead of helping them, thanks.

Comment by ben0214

Suramar Loyalist @ 45,67 in Suramar are a good spot.

Instant respawn & current xpac loot. Easy to kill with only 1mil health.

Comment by maricam58

Looking for a place to farm Lovely Charms at level 110? The murlocs in the area north of Nar'thalas Academy have a decent drop rate.

Comment by Purgatorywolf

The mass mobs in the bottom of the pit in gorgrond will give you nothing, don't waste your time there. The mobs uptop however, will. Once circuit around gave me enough for today's dailies.

Comment by Menjina

Did Everbloom on all 3 modes (killed every npc and boss), just out of curiosity.

Normal: 64 x Lovely Charm
Heroic: 63 x Lovely Charm
Mythic: 56 x Lovely Charm

Comment by woodrikj

Another great place to farm these is on the coast near Greywatch in Stormhiem and killing the Blood-Crazed pirates there. They respawn incredibly fast, I was never without something to kill and I farmed ~100 Lovely Charms in under an hour. Plus you get plenty of greens for either gold or DE mats. And you have the chance to loot artifact power off of them as well.

Comment by shellie51

I am a level 110 Mage. Can someone give me a hint for a good place to farm Lucky Charms "out in the wilds" or do I have to go in to an instance of some type. Seems last year I just got them easily but having a problem this year. Thank you

Best place to farm for lovely charms (2017): Wod Shattrah city (36, 44) to (39, 39)

Comment by veigodx

I have recently started farming Lovely Charm in Shadowmoon Valley, Gloomshade Grove (right above Exile's Rise). It seems to be a pretty good spot due to big amount of Gloomshade Fungi and Podling Trapper, even though, the drop chance is not always 100%.

Comment by Palaplegic

Anyone know a good place for level 100? I tried Mogushan Palace Heroic but cant get past the first boss to get to the bats :(

Comment by anic8038

Hellfire Citadel.

Best place I have found to farm thus far... probably a similar drop rate as to other places but with less running around (I think).

Comment by Purgatorywolf

The past few days I've been getting my 40 charms from killing things while I do WQs, including the faclosaur spots, and the pvp areas. Today, I have already completed 6 WQs (many the exact same kind as yesterday) and haven't gotten a single drop? Went to the daily spot for crushing the crown and was getting a charm every 5 kills or so.. :/ drop rate get nerfed or something?

Comment by Duxjan

If you like myself use your top fighter to collect Lovely Charm but want to turn in the major cities dailies with an alt (like your mage) here's a TIP:

The Lovely Charm Bracelet can be mailed by wrapping it in e.g. Red Ribboned Wrapping Paper available at general goods traders all over the world.

Comment by gmartin2121

Pro Tip: Speed up turn-in. The A Gift For... quests can be shared. Gather all 4 quests on a toon on another account and you can share the quests to the toon doing the turn-ins.

Comment by Ganesvoort

For level 110s:

Please note that the Blackfang of Fang'rila, in Tanaan Jungle, drop Lovely Charms. It is not nearly as quick as farming Everbloom, however, you do get to farm fangs and rep in addition to Charms. The Charms drop off about one in every three mobs.

Happy grinding! :)

Comment by Matt453

Best Spot of 7.1.5 - Mogushan Palace Heroic
Character Composition Required: Level 100 Monk Brewmaster With Summon Black Ox Statue (LVL 60 Talent) Selected.
Avg Lovely Charms: 1350/Hr possibly more. (Took me about 2 Hours to get 2750 enough for a toy or the mount)

Head in the dungeon. Make sure its on Heroic. Continue as normal up until after the first Boss. Head down the stairs until you see bats flying from the ceiling. You will be coming down a staircase to a bunch of packs. Clear them off so they never become a problem. Then head up the right staircase, place your statue on the stair landing, couple feet/meters away from the stairs and the bats will spawn right above and come right down to the statue. Just use Keg Smash off cooldown. If you are close to levering to 101, make sure you stop xp gains prior to doing this. You will need to have the Lovely Charm box to get them to drop off kills that award xp gains. This is found at the Valentines event at any major city.

Useful Macro for Charm Farming:
/run local c,t,b= GetItemCount(49655,true),GetItemCount(49927,true),GetItemCount(49916,true) SendChatMessage(t.."/"..b.."/"..c.." tokens/bracelets/charms farmed, "..(270-t-b)*10-c.. " charms remaining", YELL)

Comment by BeerWolf

Mogu Palace is, hands down, the best place to farm them quick and easy -- but you'll need a level 100 character, at most, to be able to farm from it.

After the first boss you go down a flight of stairs into a cave area, where you'll see a lot of "Giant Cave Bat"s endlessly flying by. It's them that you are farming them off.

This works best with a Marksman Hunter, spamming Multi Shot with Volley Active.

I managed to get 2700+ Charms within 1h30m.

Comment by Menjina

Just did Everbloom Normal. Still works fine, will net you around 800 an hour.

Comment by Tytrianna

I'm really surprised to see that no one listed Stonedark Grotto as an awesome place to farm these. Deepcavern Murlocs are relatively easy to kill, and in a party of 5, I collected around 250 Charms per hour. They also drop gold and I picked up at least 1000g.

Comment by Zamino

I just did a 60 minute farm in Mogu'Shan Palace and got 1323 charms, by far the best place i have tested.
Did it on my lvl 100 Brewmaster monk, just placing my Black ox statue and using Keg smash on cooldown, you dont have to move, just press 1 button.
Look from where the bats are spawning and set up camp there.
Did another hour with my Black ox statue right under where the bats spawn and got 1502 charms.

Comment by tomroxhaha

Just got 10 of these per 30 seconds solo on the broken shore.
Go to creeping grotto the small spiders spawn very fast and die very fast also.
An extremely quick way to get charms, you also dont have to worry about entering too many instances via the dungeon method.
The area where the world quest 'set you up the bomb!' is, is particularly good.

Comment by Cetane50

Got 24 of these during a Garrison Invasion (Iron Horde). Not a lot for sure but if you need to do an invasion anyway a few can be had.

Comment by Haloon

Deadwood Landing isle in Broken Shore.There is portals which constantly spawn easy mobs,just stand on portal and spam your aoe,easy charms and loot.

Comment by Iwins

I just farmed up about 250 an hour while getting my Bleakhoof Runestrider. I farmed for about 2 hours and got enough to get the pet. I was farming the demons in the first area of Argus. When you first land on Argus with the Vindicar and go down to the surface the first area you run into demons if you stay to the right the demons constantly re-spawn. This is an easy spot for a 110 to get a mount and farm charms.

Comment by Skipperski

A few days ago i was farming everbloom and getting plenty of charms, i returned this morning to farm some more only to find that not a single charm would drop for me. i tried a full run on all 3 difficulties and got nothing but grey and greens. not a single charm. I'm thinking it was stealth patched or something. now to find a different place to farm as a 110...

Comment by Shirochi

For 7.3.5 (2018) I found a perfect place for this, sadly it requires the world quest "Set You Up the Bomb!" on the broken shore to be active. If you have a class with decent/good AoE, farming these charms is super quick, stack up to 40 buffs and kill anything around you, small and big spiders alike, both will net you charms

happy farming :)

Comment by Truweil

Simple mobs do not seem to drop charms, the 1's that have only the green bar and not a full nameplate, tried several different mobs in different places, got none from that type of mob.

Comment by Papa63

Everbloom isn't working anymore for level 120.

Comment by SausageWipe

Unfortunately it's now impossible to farm it in Everbloom, I guess. So I decided to try new Karazhan instead. Works pretty great!

Comment by jester20007

As 120 level player, a nice place to farm those is The Lost Temple on Broken Shore (72.68 39.02) during the daily quest Simply Stunning . Mobs are spawning almost instantly. All the grey level mobs are not dropping charms anymore.

Comment by Nordbunny

Because you have to kill things that are Green are above at 120 you can go to the Eye of Azshara. Just portal to New Dalaran and then fly directly west to the entrance. Make sure you have it set to normal.

I've found clearing the first are on the hill then heading anticlockwise through the cave to the right as you head down the hill.. Mounting up after you emerge and the rounding up the Murlocks.. then through the far side cave and then gathering crabs etc. Gather all the adds from around the broken ships at the north. Although the water blobs are yellow they are worth gathering. I guess either direction will work. I found it nice to be able to mount up and ride back to the entrance without having to dismount through the caves.

You get about 2.5/3 stacks (100/120) per run.

Avoid the Giants and Hatecoil Arcanists if possible, they're annoying and take a while to kill not too bad if you do pull them.

Good Luck :)

Comment by CrumbCookie

Legion Return to Karazhan works just fine.

Comment by Duckyou

a decent place i've found for level 120 players is Challiane's Terrace in Azuna north west spawns of raptors are rapid ,happy farming

Comment by Ludmillaa

If you are 120, one way is to do the Warden Tower Assault quests in the Broken Isles. You won't get much honor, but you do get plenty of Lovely Charms + whatever quest rewards are going.

Comment by Sheronwow

The best spot i have found for year 2019 is the dungeon Eye of Azshara. You can clear all the mobs there without touch any boss and can mount up to speed up. Got over 50 charm per run till now, don't know if i'm lucky or not, but that is.
Just clear all mobs, exit and reset. Rinse and repeat.
Hope this can help a bit

Comment by HeldtUK

Culling the Falcosaurs in the Broken Isles seem to be the best - mount up and fly to the next set, heavily clustered, by the time that you finish the cycle the others start to spawn. I find it better than the dungeons because the dungeons have elites which take much longer to kill, while the majority of the mobs are the small falcosaurs with very little health. I anticipate this being the best place for this expansion. I get anywhere from 2-5 lovely charms per pack, taking under 10 seconds each pack guaranteed.

Comment by coolderka

As for 8.1 the best spot I found is Blood Gate in Zuldazar.

/way Zuldazar:Zandalar 58.02 20.71 Blood Gate

Go there and basically... kill everything. And, as an addition - the trolls at the gate won't fight back. They just aggroing, staring at you and waiting to die and give you your precious Lovely Charms!

For those looking for a quick BfA farm method, I tried the perma-spawning bat waves in Black Rook Hold and it did NOT work. Have to keep looking. :(

Comment by AlexFou

Anyone found a good spot to farm those in 8.1?

Comment by nisx

1 run

Eye of Azshara normal = 98 charms
First part of Karazhan Heroic = 118 charms

Kara gave me more charms but it was much slower to do than EoA.

Comment by Morwo

Voldun; /way Vol'dun 51.01 86.01

there are plenty of Redrock Scavenger, Withered Lasher, Ambermane Buck+Ambermane Gazelle+Ambermane Fawn.

Bear Tartare still buff you run speed too!

macro to help speed things up, while attacking without tapping and only mouseover:

Comment by GalacticaCS

I found that the best way to farm them as a max character is through Eye of Azshara. Just run through thousands of trash mobs and get showered with Lovely Charms. Every run i got roughly 100 Charms which was faster than in Legion with The Everbloom.

Edit: Here is the route i took in EoA : https://imgur.com/a/zoY5kKm

Comment by Gopoke

For anyone who still has a level 110 alt, so far The Everbloom still seems to be a good place to farm these for the time being. Just note it is eventually possible to level from farming the charms here since each mob gives between 12 to 67 exp.

Comment by missjacksonRUN

Eye of Azshara on Normal, of course. Definitely the best place to farm these that I've tried so far. Around 140 per run, running around killing absolutely anything and everything. I didn't time it but just put on some Netflix and you'll have enough for the mount or whatever you wish in no time!

Comment by Aestua

For level 120s, Best = Eye of Azshara, the Zone, not the dungeon (fly from the SW end of The Broken Shore then get the FP on the SW end of the horseshoe for easy return). No reset, no group gathering, mobs spawn continuously. Round robin with AoE until you have what you need. Easy.

Comment by indyfan1202

While Lovely Charm Bracelet cannot be mail, you can wrap them in Red Ribboned Wrapping Paper and them mail them to alts in order to turn in to the 4 faction leaders.

A good place for a 110-120 skinner to farm Lovely Charms during Battle for Azeroth is the 4 falcosaur swarm world quests. The falcosaurs all have a chance to drop Lovely Charm and can be skinned for Stonehide Leather which still sell decent on the Auction House. These mobs respawn very quickly and usually appear in groups of 6-8.

These world quests appear in the following zones:
Azsuna: Bloodgazer Swarm
Val'sharah: Sharptalon Swarm
Highmountain: Snowfeather Swarm
Stormheim: Direbeak Swarm

Comment by Kisanna

I find that the spot where all the elites and Loyalist Sycophants spawn in Surumar (where the "Sick of the Sycophants" WQ takes place) is an excellent spot to farm them, it is the area where the Court of Stars dungeon takes place. The mob density is insane, and respawns really fast (almost instant). Plus unlike any dungeon runs, you can rapidly fly between spots to maximize your farming rate. Spent just 15 minutes there and got a ton of mogs and gold, plus plenty of charms, more than I got from farming EoA over and over.

Farming Lovely Charm for Love is in the air 2019

Eye of Azshara:

You can get between 80 and 120 Lovely Charm in about 10mins here.

I used my Prot Paladin and stopped 3 times. (You will run this dungeon reversed. No Bosses needed)

- Pull all the Nagas at the entrance plus the ones on the right side and kill them inside the Cave.
- pass the first cave (deepbeard's cove on map), mount, pull all Murlocs and Golbins inside the next cave.
- for the last pull stay on the right side (shipwreck shoals on map) and pull the crabs and goblins at the ships and kill them with saltsea droplets the at the 2nd boss.

I finished my runs by walking into the lightning area around Wrath of Azshara to suicide and release at the entrance.

I uploaded one of my runs on Youtube.

I hope this helps :)

Comment by xYusuke23x

In trying to get one of the pets I am still missing, I discovered that, due to the scenario scaling your level to 112, everything in the Deaths of Chromie Scenario counts as an eligible kill for Lovely Charms, and always will.The later half of the scenario has 3 great places with tons of mobs to kill: Stratholme, Andorhal, and The Well of Eternity. If you have already unlocked those sections, you should be able to jump straight to those sections to mass murder mobs. Not only that, but there is no instance cap, so you are free to farm as fast as you want to your hearts content!

Comment by bradybunch

In Legion/BFA the best place to farm these is on the Eye of Azshara island (not the dungeon, the actual island). The Saltsea Droplets are basically instant re-spawn and there are TONS of packs (over 10-12+ different packs you can run between, AOE down, rinse and repeat over and over. Farm by yourself or with another person, if you have a partner have them take the beach and you take the forest area. Rinse and repeat, in about 20 minutes I have a little over 200 charms. This sure beats doing a dungeon, running out, resetting, etc.

Comment by terzu

ok guys so many comment but no one say the easy way to make Love token
at first im sry im not good in english
in patch 8 you cant go The Everbloom to farm Lovely Charm anymore best place to farm is

so you just need put dungeon on normal go inside use mount run and pull all mobs as you can hmmmm.... dont worry i did it whit monk and druid ilvl 370-380 they cant harm you but waste your time to kill 1by1 there is so many mobs and you want end this fast
ok after 15min you done and you earn something like 150 lovely charm but dont change them on market for love token thats rlly waste time
you need each day 40x Lovely Charm to change for Lovely Charm Bracelet after that

hord or alliance

go in 4x capital city Get your daily quest and turn to king city and you get 5x Love Token so 4x city and you get 20x love token each day
+1 gungeon run Heart-Shaped Box 5x
+2x another daily quest each one 5 love token

1dungeon run
and
1spray daily quest 5x reward

also this daily but hmmmm.... waste time i think long way

all of this on hord or alliance

so ez pz you can earn 35 Love Token each day just need 30min time spend
i think its waste time you waste time on farm for lovely charm and change 10x for 1x love token :|

for save your time you need just ask mage or....
go in your capital orgrimmar or stormwind buy guild back ok this one for teleport to this two city
hord
alliance
if you havent enough rep for guild so you cant buy this one but there is also 4h and 8h back
for alliance use dalaran stone or go in pandaria for exdoar or darnassus you need just port to one of them becouse this 2 city have portal for another one (darnassus-exdor) for darnassus portal exdoar is under king down stairs for exdoar portal darnassus is after king 50-100yard next in corner right or better download handynote travel guide so you can see portals on map

Comment by Namirsolo

I finally found a good place to farm these (if the quest is up). Hundred Troll Holdout in Zuldazar at 65,30. The mobs are easy to kill and they drop love tokens quickly. I just did the quest and got 30 really quickly.

Comment by eurolink

If you go to Eye of Azshara to farm Lovely Charms, don't waste your time on the elite mobs. Enter the instance, go to the right and follow the periphery of the instance through the caves and beaches where you'll find packs of non-elite Bitterbrine goblins, Saltscale murlocs, Seapray crabs, and Saltsea droplets. Just mount, aggro the packs together then AOE. (Hint: make sure you have aggroed all crabs in their packs before moving on to the next pack since they do not all aggro together. Also, don't get to close to Lady Hatecoil when her shield is still up... you will die!) I average 80 Lovely Charms in 10 minutes, which is a better return on time invested, in my opinion.

Comment by cobbsalad

Just A quick 2 day farming log Lovely Charm in Eye of Azshara

First Day Feb 22, 2019

First run through EoA normal gave me 112
Second run though gave me 111

I killed every mob in all the hidden caves and corners, done. The random seed that places a loot chest for the run (on normal) only appeared the first day. I did not see a chest on the second day. I believe it is weekly. It may place a random number of mobs in the surrounding region of the chest but the mobs were there on the second day.
Let us pray to the great random generator of the nether.

Second Day Feb 23, 2019

First run gave me 117
Second run gave me 111

Comment by Solvii

If you have and are farming on a 120 character everbloom will give nothing like the comments and guides above, but Eye of Azshara the legion dungeon gave me a good alternative! i roughly got 103 from one run on normal difficulty on a protection paladin!

Tip: pulling the sides of the naga's (some are casters be aware) and then moving on to the first boss> then moving down pulling a bit not everything its a waste of time going to the second boss, on the left side of the second boss you will see some small mob packs also on the boat they give a lot! Avoid the blue crabs they slow you a lot when killed and didn't seem to give a lot of charms, barely any in fact. moving on to the 3rd boss beware for seagulls they disorientate. moving on to the 4th boss you will see a lot of murlocs and other small packs, pull them all they give a lot of charms! then last boss and reset!

Comment by Morwo

i went some norm and hc dungeons from BfA solo as a 450 ret. felt more rewarding then legion dungeons.

breakdown of the motherlode in nhc:

Lovely Charm 89x
greenies ~ 15
Tidespray Linen 128x
Deep Sea Satin 9x
greys ~ 12
Stringy Loins 15x
Briny Flesh 2x

Divine Shield never used, but some Rebuke and Hammer of Justice. 22minutes

Comment by dreamyrobot

Another strategy to do if you don't want to run Eye of Azshara is to just get some friends on your opposing faction and spawnkill them over and over. In just under 10 minutes me and my friends grinded out about 160 charms.

Comment by ZombieEris

Yes agreed with other comments about EoA
Just went through 1 run on normal received 137 charms and took about 15 or so min. Most of that was running around going from mob to mob. I killed every thing. Was on a 420 arcane mage, mostly arcane explosioned everything.\

In 15 mins (set a timer for 15 mins to make sure it was exactly 15) of farming the falcosaurs in High Mountian (the ones in azuna were being farmed by several others on my server and the HM ones are about the same spacing and spawn fast enough) I was able to get 122 plus extras (eggs, greens, vender trash, ect)

Imo they are a much faster kill than EoA with less travel over all. All i did was start at one end and work my way to the other and flew back to my beginning point and started over, by the time i got back all of them or most all of them had spawned again.

I hope this helps others and happy farming.

Edit:
I went through all the normal verison of legion dungeons, and heroic for the ones that dont have normal verison
and have found out the rate (for myself anyway, rng doesnt always like me)

Neltharion's Lair 35
Maw Of Soul's 24
Halls Of Valor 39
Violet Hold 8
Vault of the Wardens 37
Darkheart Thicket 54
Black Rook Hold 46
Court Of Stars 53
Arcway 71
Seat Of the Triumvirate 94
Return To Karazhan 144

So for a dailies lock down Kara seems like the best, but out of all them i go back to my original statement the falcosaurs being the best for farming the charms, either in azuna or high mountain.

Comment by LaffiBoozegnome

FOR WORLD OF WARCRAFT LOVE IS IN THE AIR 2020:

As a level 120, go to Eye of Azshara and pull all you can!

Comment by Esric

The Emerald Nightmare (Legion raid) is a goldmine for these. There are so many packs of like 10 tiny trash mobs, and they're all eligible to give you charms. I ran EN Mythic for transmog purposes and Lovely Charms were dropping left right and centre.

Comment by TheiaDarkHeart

Bloodfin Village in Nazjatar is a pretty great place to farm these.

Comment by kredrin

For now (on Shadowlands) it seems that every skinning farm (on SL ofc) should work to get alot of those Charms. The best thing is that you'll get some gold with skinning too!

Comment by XJMLN

Spot in Ardenweald: Soryn's Meadow (62.57, 45.69)
About 140 charms in 40 minutes.

Comment by Boombaklats

The eye of Azshara place (whispering willows) were you kill the packs of lvl 45 Saltsea Droplet still works. Just have to do it on a lvl 50. The lovely charms you get from kills from group or others even in raid still dropping. So form a raid and put a lvl 50 on every packs and instant respawns with no running. Way faster then the farm groups on lvl 60 going atm

Got 24 stacks of 40 in 2 hours

Comment by Tropix

Good place to farm Lovely Charm in Shadowlands is in Ardenweald, Groove of Memory.
/way Ardenweald 62 24

Comment by Romanv

I have tried the points they recommend in Shadowlands, but they have not finished convincing me.
The best so far is having a level 50 mage and clearing Eye of Azshara in normal mode.
Clear the entire dungeon, without killing bosses, exit, restart and repeat as many times as you want.
Then with the mage you go from capital to capital delivering the daily quests.
Easy, fast and safe.

Comment by Nurishment

2021 - Layer 1 torghast runs seem to be fairly good for level 60, assuming your reasonably geared.

Comment by Yngwie

Roughly 500 Charms per hour at Argus at Krokuun Hovel's Demon Portals (/way 60 77).

LvL 50 (LvL 60 did not get any charms, and lower level got them at slower rate)

Spam aoe on portal while watching twitch. (I used MW Monk and spammed spinning crane kick)

Seems being grouped slows collection rate by a LOT.

Also good for getting the mana buns achievement.

Comment by Chad770

Layer 1 Tower ( not twisting ) seems ok, started with 8 charms finished with 40.

Comment by vyndrian

Party sync to level 50. Go to Broken Shore, coords 56, 34. Sometimes there's a world quest here with a frostwyrm extra action button. ~~You do NOT need that world quest to be up!~~

Groups of 7-10 mobs, instant and endless respawns, mobs die in 2 hits, and best of all: both factions can tag.

The charms are endless. I've gotten 40 charms in less than 5 minutes.

Edit: People below have commented that they patched this area. They did not. I was incorrect in stating a world quest did not need to be up. On Broken Shore certain areas have different mobs depending on certain world quests being active. When the world quest with the frostwyrm is active the mobs I was speaking of are plentiful. When the world quest is not active there are only sparse mobs.

Comment by Mydge

I am 50, about 3.5 bubbles into levelling through and the Legion mobs are all 45 and grey and won't drop any of the charms. Seems to be some confusion here but I am not able to get them from Legion mobs.
I do have the Lovely Charm Collector's Kit in my bags.

Comment by EerieIs

The spot that is working for me: 38.66 , 37.63 on the Broken Shore at the spiders. I'm doing circles around the pillar killing all the mobs.
Character Level: 50
Timer: 2 Hours
Charms: 1477
That's 740ish Charms per Hour.

It was fixed. RIP.

Comment by Falltoise

Grove of Memory in Ardenweald is looking like a really good spot for Shadowlands players, been farming it for about 30min on my 60 Marksman hunter solo and have gotten ~120 Lovely Charms. so around 240-250/h
The mobs can hurt quite a bit if you don't kill them fast enough, but the Minor Hex minions around the area do give you a stacking buff up to 60% increased dmg done for 2min, so mobs die pretty fast with decent gear :)

Comment by Losai

For Shadowlands - in Ardenweald right outside Hibernal Hollow is a good place to farm (and skin at the same time if you're a skinner.) Roughly around 63.30, 56.19

Comment by Pakulia

These also drop in Torghast.
Farmed about 120-130 charms with 2 people in a Twisting Corridors run.

Comment by spaz1729

Something i did which I think might help others is running Floor 1 of Layer 1 of Torgahst, I got 40 charms in about 15 minutes or so.

Comment by Canari

For anyone looking to multitask

Although not as lucrative as Soryn’s Meadow.

I was receiving a decent amount farming Neonate Bonetooth (45.43, 54.63 – Maldraxxus) which have a chance at dropping Blight-Touched Egg which hatches in to Chewed Reins of the Callow Flayedwing.

Other Items:

- Herbs in the area
- Raw Seraphic Wing

Comment by sarahlunagg

Soryn's Meadow in Ardenweald (62, 47) by the solo Meadow Guardian next to a single lamp is nuts. If you stand in the middle of the cliff, pointed rock, and tree, you can kill tons of Possessed Chargers. Non-elites, insane respawn time - I got 160 charms in like 45 minutes.

Comment by BlackMirana

Perfect spot to farm is at Heartwood Grove in Ardenweald (62/25)

Comment by Liloaj

Eye of azshara- get through all of the trash. All. I just ran it and got 120
The charm will be automatically added to your bag, look on chat and it’ll say when you “create” one

Comment by TheBigDeeb

This is an Easy Way to Farm Love Token in Shadowlands

3- Talk to Kwee Q. Peddlefeet in any major city. to get Lovely Charm Collector's Kit
4- Choose Classic & Cataclysm Time from Chromie in your Major City So the Boar Lvl can Scale With Your Lvl
