I don't know where the percentages come from, they seem rather high.

As of patch 2.0.10 the best mobs to farm are the Clefthoof Bull's (~14% droprate based on ~450 kills).
These mobs can be found in the area south of the Laughing Skull Ruins and west of the Horde village Garadar and north of Halaa.

Don't bother with the normal Clefthoof mobs, their droprate is so much lower (~5%).

It seems the droprate since patch 2.0.10 has been increased. I frequently get 2 in a row and getting 5-6 in a row are no exceptions. Good thing since for some craftables you need 40 of them.

Its easy too farm them.. just west of garadar there is alot of bull's and wild elekk spawns too(for rep) and storm rager(for mote of air). farmed a stack in 20 min.. easy way too get money if your 335 LW and can make Clefthide leg armor.

Comentario de 13727

They are selling for 80-100g a stack of 20 on my server, nice means of cash and easily farmable.

Comentario de Pewdie

These are very easy to farm, drop rate aint bad+ they sell for 20g~ probably more per 5 stack. Me likey =)

Comentario de 19534

I belive the drop rate on these was at some point reduced by bliz curently geting a 23% drop rate from clefthoof bulls in Nagrand (507/2177) skins

Comentario de hetauma

After many hours of farming and a lot of thinking I found out that blizzard had implemented some awesome algorithm to calculate the drop chance of clefthoof leathers! It's a simple modification of the "I WILL BREAK YOUR NERVES" algorithm.!

Comentario de gaze

The location of spawn north-west of Garadar is the best spot for finding these, however if you are alliance there may be lots of horde activities and gankage is possible XD

if you are afraid of being ganked, or is being targetted by horde, the location next to the lake on the east of Trelaar is the best

Comentario de 27109

I like to AE farm these out by where Durn spawns and wonders. Theres 1 bull in each pack + the others give leather. The above locations are correct and possibly faster for getting just the clefhoot leather, but ive found its a favorite location for china farmers, so if these places are camped, go out to the open field and farm them. Agroing the bull wont pull the rest of the pack.

Comentario de asole

I don't but it's so expensive in these days (80-90g a stack - Executus / EU). I've check some of EU servers and prices between 60-120g for a stack.

Comentario de Thaspraya

Grinded 74 Thick Clefthoof Leather, only from the Clefthoof Bulls. Had to kill 255 bulls, 29% droprate for me. 30/12/07

Comentario de 41976

My lifetime droprate (from about 10/07 - 2/08):

Clefthoof Bull: 22% (192/891)

Comentario de zyzxs

Found them at 46,76. A couple of herds converge here. If you take a friend or two, you can kill both herds and your farming may take a little less time. The drop rate is around 22%.

Comentario de 112796

Best route for farming this leather is to start grinding Clefthoof Bulls south-west of Garadar and move north-west killing them along the way. Then turn back and same thing again, you don't have to wait for respawns at all, even if ther is little competition. Got exactly 195/650 (30%)

Comentario de 71161

I got really good droprate from Clefthoof Bulls. Needed 29 skins, and killed 66 bulls. Thats 44%

Comentario de 62458

I farm my Thick clefthoof leather like this(map).
If you are a hunter the ability track beasts works fine.
Just look after the red dots on the minimap, theres no other "Red" beasts there.

Comentario de 42256

Lhara <Darkmoon Faire Exotic Goods> also sells these in limited numbers.

I managed to pick up 2 for 30s each tonight.

Happy camping :)

Comentario de Heimdallen

It seems that only people who get very lucky on drop rates post about items, so for all of you depressed people who think they are extremely unlucky, this post is for you! Either I'm also very unlucky or it's just a horrible drop rate, but I've killed about 90 bulls and I've gotten 7 pieces of the thick clefthoof leather. Considering I'm after 94 pieces total to make all 3 heavy clefthoof items, if my luck doesn't improve it's going to take killing ~1,200 clefthoof bulls to get what I need. Now I know why it's so expensive on the auction house - stack of 20 of this would probably take me about 6 hours to get, which justifies those AH prices of 5-10g each on my server. I normally get 1-3 knothide scraps (pretty large creatures to yield such a small amount!), every 5th or 6'th one drops an actual whole piece of knothide leather, and every dozen or so kills nets me a thick clefthoof leather. I like Mira's idea! Good post, thanks! =] Good luck and don't get too down if it takes forever to farm this - your experience is probably normal!

Comentario de Xaphist

As of 2.4----
farmed about 60 of em, got a drop rate of %31 of clefthoof bulls. So the percentages seem right.

Comentario de ronaldscott

I just killed and skinned 30 Clefthoof (just the regular non-aggro Clefthoof) for the quest and got 2 Thick Clefthoof Leather. That's a droprate of about 6.7%, so accounting for the vagaries of chance I'd say the quoted 8% droprate is probably pretty accurate.

As an aside I recommend picking up if you're farming these anyways. Synergy and all that.

Comentario de 85599

well, at first when i came skiniing the clefthoofs i was like wow...2-3 thicks from 30 clefthoofs, that is awsome...

and yesterday, i got a stack while grinding 5 of the clefthoofs next to halaa for aout 10 times...
that is 20 leather in 50 kills....scared me...

Comentario de Drunkenstein

Pair up farming these with the Daily quest for Nether residue, and your bank will fill up! These sell for 6-8g EACH on Malygos server. Sometimes I feel generous and offer a stack for 100g. Never takes more than 30 secs to sell them. Happy Hunting! :)

Comentario de Drunkenstein

Also, on the drop rate, I'd say from my exp. 30-40% seems right. I've skinned 5 and got 5 of em, then skinned 5 more and got none. Generally after I have a stack, I also have a stack of heavy knothide leather, and close to 2 stacks of heavy knothide scraps. The heavy leather goes for 15g a stack, and the scraps for 2g. So even if the drops are low for you, you'll make some cash. Not to mention the fur and horns that go for a couple gold ea stack

Comentario de Ponkaton

Came here before starting my grind for the heavy clefthoof set. And I was quite happy when I looked into my bags maybe 30 kills in and had a stack already there. Of course now that I'm posting this I'll go back and not get anything for the next 300 or so kills. Happy skinning.

Comentario de 138910

my lifetime skinning is (1001/3450) or ~29%.

helped me get my epic flyer and i occasionally farm a stack or two for some pocket change.

if you're wondering, im a paladin, mostly just kara/heroics gear in both my ret set and prot aoe farming set.
I found ret to be easier to farm as. prot WOULD be better if they didnt have that damn stomp(the bulls outside horde city in case you are wondering where)

i get a stack of leathers as ret in ~20-25 minutes and it takes me about 30-35 minutes as prot.

GL and happy farming i hope this helps you.

EDIT: these sell for anywhere from 75g-150g a stack on US-Dalvengyr.

Comentario de 260019

did the clefthoof mastery quests that's 60 kills in all and got 7 thick clofthoof leather. That's what... 12%? Can't wait to start the grind for these babies. My wife will never see me again. : )

Comentario de 274514

The price that this website says to sell it for is outrageous, if u put it in the AH for 40g a stack, trust me, it will never sell, i sold 16 for 30g which i thought was a pretty good deal. So i would say a stack of 20 would probably sell for somewhere around 35g, hope this helps :D

Comentario de 94144

Did this today to get the leg item... Went just for 16, walking out with 17 and 20 Knothide((Destroyed about 30 or so*cough* need bigger bags))

Now for all of you saying the drop rate is dismal, Kill faster or something I don't know *shrug* got mine in about 20 minutes, including a bio break.

Comentario de Allakhazam

Hehe i was the first person to start selling these on Eonar and set the price at 4g each....ive made at least 300g off these things so far =D best place to skin them is off the Clefthoof Bulls to the east of Telaar.

Comentario de Allakhazam

I am a level 355 leatherworker and in order to get guaranteed (ReddishOrange) skill points I need several pieces of Thick Clefthoof Leather per each pattern:

Heavy Clefthoof Boots = 20 Thick Clefthoof Leather

Heavy Clefthoof Leggings = 34 Thick Clefthoof Leather

Enchanted Clefthoof Boots = 16 Thick Clefthoof Leather

Clefthide Leg Armor = 8 Thick Clefthoof Leather but it's gray to me now

Hope this explains why it's so much in demand. Any questions about these crafted items can be directed to me on Destromath Level 68 Troll Hunter.

Comentario de Allakhazam

Maybe it was just a good percentage roll, but I was getting about 25-30% off the bulls around the compound today.

Comentario de Allakhazam

in my experience best place is nagrand just south of laughing skull ruins. the bulls there drop
1 in 7-10. the drop rate in northern blade's edge may be better but the mobs are 5-7 levels higher so take longer to kill and more downtime. plus there are air/earth elementals around that drop motes of air/earth at a decent rate. by the by i guess there are a lot of skinners on my server cause a 20 stack goes for 40G in AH.

Comentario de Allakhazam

I know in Everquest items where nerfed by lvl so that if you went into a zone being a low lvl you would get better drops. Well its never been spoke of that WoW does this but I am asking the question now because of these Clefthoof leathers. At lvl 67 i got back to back drops of Thick Clefthoof leathers. As soon as i reached lvl 68 i logged and came back a few days later and after killing over 30 including Bulls, Aged, Calves and Regulars across the zone I have not been able to get one to drop. I jsut wanted to see if anyone had any insight on the mechanics of the game so I can make a decision to buy them at 6g a piece or just keep trying.

Hey, I'm from a pvp server called Blackrock. I farmed the Clefthoof north of halaa near the horde base, and moved my way eastwards so forth. I get about 100 clefthoof leather per 3 hrs. avg 33 per hour. then while waiting for respawns go to the seat of elements and farm Air elementals for primals same with fire and water. In a good 7 hour farm, I make leg armors and sell the primals. making a total profit of about 1700g.

Normal Clefthide leg armors sell for 120g each on my server. if you go the Cobrascale leg armors they sell for about 270g. Very easy for me to make gold, if I put in the time. the avg drop rate for clefthoof leather according to my mod is 47.2% and for the cobra scales is about 22%. Thats everytime, if not a higher %age. I take about 3-4 clefthoof at a time.

70 NE hunter. Huntdamunky. Alliance. 2200RAP, 25% crit, 100 hit. 375 LW / 375 Skinning.

Comentario de Allakhazam

The subject line says it all...why are these so expensive? I've heard they're used for some piece of druid equipment but I don't know what. Anyone willing to shed a little light on the situation for me? Thanks.

Edited, Oct 13th 2007 1:58am by Angnor

Comentario de Allakhazam

i seem to be the only person on my server putting these on the ah and ive been making 100g+ plus everytime. very easy to obtain and ppl are lazy so go farm these before the people wake up

Comentario de Allakhazam

I get this alot off the Bulls......that's your best bet in my case. the drop rate is about 1 leather for every 2 you kill......2 or 3......that's what it is for me at least

Comentario de Allakhazam

Comentario de Thottbot

does this item actually drop or is it skinning?

Comentario de Thottbot

After getting about 400 thick clefthoof leathers, my experience is that 66 bulls drop them almost twice as often as 65 bulls.

Currently, you can obtain these at around 25% (1 in 4 skins) for the level 66 bulls. Level 65 are only around (1 in 7 skins) 15%. Anyway, that's what I've been seeing to date.

Comentario de Thottbot

The amberpelts do have the highest droprate (about 1 in 4 in my experience) but they hit harder and take a lot longer to kill. IMO, kill the bulls. You'll get these at the same rate, plus other skins.

Comentario de Thottbot

I'm starting to understand why these sell for so much. I'm a leatherworker, and have just grinded ~600 of these. From 350-375. And i'm stuck at 374.

These sell at such high prices because leatherworkers feel like they might toss their cookies if they have to see another clefthoof bull.

Drop ratio for me so far has been 1/5, roughly :)

Comentario de Thottbot

As far as I know, as of Patch 2.1.0 Amberpelt Clefthoof have been completely removed from Blade's Edge Mountains. =\

Comentario de Thottbot

As an alternative, I might suggest riding crops -

I took a slight loss, but the points weren't so hard - 350 to 370 was a LOT easier for me than almost everyone else I know.

What I did was pulled together mats for a couple of riding crops, and then offered to craft them in exchange for ONLY the primal might in return.

Small pris shards are 5g on my server, and I don't mind farming the heavy knothide. Arcane dust can be bought, but it isn't tough to get someone to DE greens for you for the dust.

So, I just told people in trade: Want a Riding Crop? Give me a Primal Might - no other tips/mats required -

And bam - I could turn these over and over.

If you happen to be 70 and working on this, than your daily quests alone will provide more than enough cash for the other mats. Or offer to trade a riding crop for a suitable stack of whatever mats you want.

Hope this helps you out!

~Darq of CC~

PS - riding crop WILL go green on you at 370 - so you may want to go ahead and figure out what things you want to make for yourself for those last 5 points. For me, it will be 3 pieces of Heavy Clefthoof Armor for my bear kit.

Comentario de Thottbot

59,71 is a good farming spot

For those without coords

East of Telaar, as soon as you leave the bridge take a right...about 6-8 patrolling mobs you can kill and skin.

Comentario de Thottbot

Like mentioned in 1 of the comments above.. NW of Garadar is really good a lot of them and the first will respawn before u have killed the last ones...
Remember only kill the ones with red names "Clefthoof Bulls" the ones just called Clefthoof have a !@#$ty droprate...

And a bit of advice for LWs who hasnt reached 70 yet. at lvl 69 spent some time getting exp from killig and skinning these, then u don't have to do it l8er :D saves u some time at lvl 70.

But i killed evry bull i saw in Nagrand and got 22 Thick clefthoof leather in 1 hour, not too bad

Have fun all

bye

Comentario de Thottbot

after doing the mastery quests of nagrand i ended up with 14 and given the quantities they are needed to create anything im saving mine despite the decent price they hold on auction

Comentario de Thottbot

lol

Comentario de Thottbot

I think we're all getting a little spoiled.

Spent 30 minutes NW of Garador this afternoon (30 minutes was about all the time I had) and was able to get 15 Clefthoof hides and about 9 knothides (almost all from scraps), 17 Clefthoof Meat plus vendor trash in the amount of about 3G and 2 Eternium Lockboxes, which count as greens (since that's what will be in them). Had to kill some of those annoying windy elementals, who have never dropped anything other than a Bronx Cheer for me, so that was time wasted, but...

My 70 Hunter likes to take these guys 2 or 3 at a time and most times I won't drag anything else in with Multi-Shot, so it's fairly efficient.

But in contrast, I assembled the Stormshroud armor set last week (4 patterns) and that requires you to kill these Murloc Oracles at the Temple of Arkkoran in Azshara. Level 53 and 54 but lots of other trash mobs around. I think I killed about 350 before the pattern dropped. Then 45 annoying elite giants who could't figure out whether they were amphibians or not, then....it goes on. I had to kill Princess Tempestria to get the gloves, not that she's a big problem but she sure does take her time showing up for an appointment... Remember also that Azshara has no inn, no mailbox, a Bowyer 250 miles away through hordes of unskinnable naga but no one to sell any ammo. I didn't even see an outhouse.

So killing these BUFs, given what they drop, is looking pretty good in comparison.

Comentario de Thottbot

the odds for me was 8 leathers out of 25 bulls

Comentario de Thottbot

this leather is about a 10% drop of the clefthoofs and the thick clefthoofs and yes it must be skinned

Comentario de Thottbot

when you hit 370 LW i suggest the drums of panic from keepers of time. you no longer need exalted for the pattern, only honored, uses 4 fel hide and some heavy knothide. pretty easy for a higher end pattern

Comentario de Thottbot

I decided after using thottbot for the last year to actually do something helpful and post a comment of my own. For all those leatherworkers taking the Heavy Clefthoof set option to 375 be prepared to spend days grinding on the dam Bulls with some heavy competition, I got my leatherworking to 374 thinking only needed to make one more item in order to level but sadly no and ended up making 8 more items with a 160 extra Clefthoof involved, and this stuff is not cheep on my server 80-120 gold a stack. So make sure you get extra if you’re taking this path to master leatherworking. Happy farming :)

Comentario de Thottbot

Well, I know how I'm making the last 800g for my epic mount/riding training =)

Comentario de Thottbot

I spent 35 min yesterday grinding these. My findings were that the drop rate is decent. But i was killing all the air elementals as well...

After the 35 min i had 22 Clefthoof leather, 37 knothide leather (after putting the scraps together), 8 motes of air and 3 greens(they DE'd into 7 arcane dust, just enouph for a enchant). Im going to be grinding more of these today and i will put up numbers once i get them. Also on my server primal earth is going for 3-4g and i just made 2 clefthoof leg armor kits and sold them for 55g each. So LW and skinning are a great way to grind money. If i could only hold onto the money i make...

Comentario de Thottbot

The drop rate...

was fine for the first 21 (lvl 65 and 66s) had 7 TCL, but it took another 29 before i got my 8th TCL :((( called it quits for that day - was not a happy camper!

Next day, 60 skins = 23 TCL :)

Comentario de Thottbot

what lvl skinning do you need to skin these?

Comentario de Thottbot

Skinning required = Mob lvl * 5

Comentario de Thottbot

I started farming Clefthoofs again recently (after a 6 month layoff) and the droprate seems to have improved greatly. Ironically enough, I already had two stacks of Chefthoof Leather and was mainly after the Knothide Leather to begin with...lol.

I farm a semicircle starting from the plain west of Garadar through to southeast of the village. By the time I've finished, they'll be starting to respawn back at the starting point. An added bonus is killing the Air Elementals that drop Motes of Air every 4-5 kills or so.

From less than an hour's farming, I made two Clefthide Patches and a Primal Air, which works out to around 200g profit with the cost of 8 x Primal Earth taken into account. I also got three greens (those Clefthoofs must have had pockets) and a bunch of vendor trash.

Comentario de Thottbot

33% drop off of skinning for the clefthoof bulls

Comentario de Thottbot

50.28 seems to be the best spot to farm these (just north of Garadar. It seems to be a 1/4 drop on my server they sell for 6.50g each and 127 avg. for 20.

Comentario de Thottbot

i farm them at 50.28(just north of garadar, there is also a nice spot south of garadar but uasualy crowded by bots, gold farmers, etc)
They seem to be a 1/4 drop rate (tested by 10 people each kill 500 at different times of the day). An average of 6.50g each or 127g a stack ( as of now on my server... expect inflations, it always happens.)

if you have any questions you can reach me on the server gorgonnash, my mains name is goomm.

Comentario de Thottbot

Farmed area around 51,28 on 08/05/08 and had about a 35% drop rate . . . very good spot for farming.
