Anyone knows what the use for this is?

The mote extractor is for extracting motes (hence the name), you use special goggles https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/spell=30318 to see the dust clouds that suck up motes, motes are used for everything in the expansion so it should be a bit of a money maker!

motes are essentially what has replaced essences as one of the key materials for making things. you collect motes and then turn them into primal versions of each mote. these can be further transmuted by certain professions into even more valuable trade goods.

I believe Blizzard did this to make farming essence-style materials more reliable; eg instead of farming huge amounts of mobs for very rare drops, you farm large amounts of mobs for large amounts of dropped items. You then refine that into higher quality items..

Commento di Paddyjack

So far there are 3 types of clouds you can extract motes (usually 4-5) from:

Zangarmarsh: motes of life (blue clouds)
Netherstorm: Motes of mana (purple black)
Shadowmoon valley: Motes of shadow (greenish dark)

You don't see these clouds appear on your minimap (like flowers/vein do), you have to be on the lookout for them.Clouds are usually rare on a map.

Netherstorm clouds are indeed hidden from view. The special goggles mentioned above works, however detect invisibility from a warlock does work too. When I'm in area52 and I'm about to start my route for flowers, I often ask a warlock to give me the buff. There is an alchemy potion that does the same spell, but so far, I had no luck finding clouds with them, so I don't know about that.

Overall, if you create this item thinking you gonna be rich... well you won't be :) 4 primal life on my server goes for 60g total, so its an expensive item to make. However, if you are a miner or herbalism and you see a cloud while running around farming, it is useful as a secondary item. I advise you to create it while it's orange, so at least you gain one precious engineering point making a somewhat useful item. On the long run, you are sure to make more money with it that by creating it.

Also... you never know, Blizz may up the respawn timers of these clouds one day and make it very worthwhile...

Is it a single use or can you use it many times?

Motes of Air are now harvestable in Nagrand from Windy Cloud or somesuch.

Commento di 62037

I would say this is very useful item to create. Especially if you dont have a herbalist as you would otherwise have no access to Primal Life.

Use the engineering goggles to get the clouds up on the mini map(bit like you get with herbalism or mining).

Nagrand for Primal air
Shadowmoon Valley for Primal Shadow
Netherstorm for Primal Mana
Zangarmarsh for Primal Water

Useful to have miner with this I feel as you then can harvest all Primals when farming.

I find you usually get about 3-4 motes per extraction using this device.

While mining with my mage, I have noticed clouds in Azshara. I am wondering if they are usable with the extractor? I shall have to return and find out but was wondering if anyone had an idea what these are, in the meantime.....? Quest items maybe?

Commento di Allakhazam

Has anyone ever extracted a Mote of Air with this and if so from where?

So far I have read it has extracted Mote of Life and Mote of shadow.

Thanks

Used for extracting Motes of Life from the gases in Zangamarsh (and Motes of other substances from gases in oher zones). There are small (Gnome sized) gas clouds/balls (fairly uncommon) that float around Zangamarsh. When you are close to one of the clouds, just right click on the device in your inventory and it will automatically start the extraction process. You should see a line of energy between the gas cloud and your fingers. Takes a few seconds and you will normally get several Motes from one cloud. The Motes of xxx can be combined to make Primal xxx for use in some tradeskills.

Commento di Allakhazam

I built this with the intent of farming motes from the marsh to make money. After spedning the last week running other guildies through Zangarmarsh (having hit 70 recently), I found only ONE gas cloud ever - and I was looking. It yielded 4 motes of life.

This is the biggest waste of a Delicate Arcaanite Converter ever - unless they up the spawn and payout of these "gas clouds".

Commento di Allakhazam

This is an amusement item only. Or a waste of time and materials, depending on your level of frustration with Engineering.

The mats required to construct this item, coupled with the poor payoff (rare clouds, yielding the lowest value motes) and single zone usable area, all make this a nice recipe to have just so you can say you have it. Actually constructing one is of dubious value.

Commento di Allakhazam

saw a dark brown cloud in shadowmoon valley today, but im not an engy so i just looked and left. just to let you know that there are other locations out there, before u vendor this :)

Commento di Allakhazam

While spending about 3 evenings in Nagrand questing, I found about 6-7 Windy Clouds that spawn pretty regularly, using the extracter I got between 3 and 5 motes of air each time...by the end of the time it took to finish all the quests, I had extracted over 11 PRIMAL AIRS without even trying to find the clouds. I wore my goggles all the time as they will let you see on your mini map if there is a cloud nearby to extract from...this works in all 4 zones, use your goggles and the clouds are so much easier to find...

I have gotten Air from Nagrand
Water from Zangermarsh
Mana from Netherstorm
Shadow from Shadow Moon Valley
(The Shadow I found espically nice because there really isn't a good place to farm motes of shadow)...

I have found the cost of the extractor being well worth it...I already had 18 arcanite bars stored in the bank anyway from all the arcane crystals I got while leveling up mining...
