There are two new types of 'special' nodes in the Zaralek Caverns: Lambent Herb Nodes, and Metamorphic Ore Deposits, which are the primary source of Zaralek Glowspores, used in a variety of new 10.1 crafts, particularly Dracothyst. Perception DOES grant bonus Glowspores, same as Rousing Elements.

Overloading a Lambent Herb Node will spawn a mushroom man who runs off, spawning little balls along his trail. Each of these will give a Glowspore when you move through them. I missed some due to a lava pool, but still managed to get 12. Overloading a Metamorphic deposit created 5 Metamorphic Spires nearby, each giving a small amount of ore plus 3-6 Glowspores each.

Herb and Ore nodes give one of two unique buffs, which when a player has both, will create a Propagated Spore, which on April 21st contained 20 Glowspores(Appears to be buffed from when the commenter below found this).

There was a comment elsewhere that you had to be level 70 and have completed the campaign for 10.0.7.
My question is... is this completion of the campaign just for one toon, or do you have to have done it on every toon you want to gather Glowspores with?

Zaralek Glowspores x 300 will be needed for Dracothyst , two Dracothyst are needed for the max item level craftable items in 10.1 : Enchanted Aspect's Shadowflame Crest so Zaralek Glowspores will be in high demand.

Can be fished from Luminescent Cave Pools. Found one at 55,74.

You can get this reagent from various gathering professions:

- fishing from new pools, you get like 2 per pool at best
- skinning (rarely from generic mobs, guaranteed from some rares),
- mining/herbalism - the best by far, especially if you overload herbs

Comment by saphirond

on my biased experience, don't bother mining for them, herbalists get way better drops (talking 1-3 vs 5-7, perception procc not included)

also miners have to mine around the caldera with the constant dismounting debuff, while herabilst gather around the sulphur swamp in the middle, stress free

Comment by avieaerie

Both of the buffs gained from gathering the nodes wash off in lava and water deep enough to swim in. Look before you dive!

Comment by larryoaks

Are these used by jewelcrafting? I have mining and skinning skills and no toons with other than mining/skinning which would make these auction house items so someone else can use them?

The high speed farming of theese are without doubt through the Propagated Spore

Technically, you can get this by yourself. Only way to do that tho is to be both a Herbalist and a Miner. If you are only of them them, you will either need to team up with someone with the opposite profession or rely totally on random luck. ( Random luck only works atm because of the high amount of players farming this in Dragonflight )

On to the actual way. This can only be done in Zaralek Cavern as the caverns have two some special gathering nodes. For miners its the Metamorphic Ore Deposits ( Metamorphic Serevite Deposit & Metamorphic Draconium Deposit ) and for the herbalists its the Lambent Herb Nodes ( Lambent Hochenblume ). If you gather from one of theese nodes, you will pick up a 2 min buff.

For Miners its the Zaralek Glowdust and for Herbalists its the Zaralek Glowbur

Now. If you get both buffs on yourself, you automatically get the Propagated Spore and the buffs are consumed. If two players, each with their buff touch eachother, they both get the item as well.

Theese usually contain somewhere in the range of 15-20 Zaralek Glowspores , but they can also give high amounts occasioanly in the range of 70-80.

As a sidenote, if you are farming, its good to know that you can overload both the Mining nodes ( Overload Metamorphic Deposit ) and the Herbs ( Overload Lambent Herb )

As of patch 10.2 there are so many players farming this that you usally end up standing on someone with the debuff by accident quite often.
