I did some fishing off the Hillsbrad foothills town dock and picked up a few specimens of strangel kelp in watertight boxes. Just cast a line into the "fish hot spot" to get a pretty good rate of watertight boxes. The boxes also contained leather, wool, and rum. Also good rate of Blackmouth fish if interested.

Basically go to any town near the ocean and swim around offshore for a few minutes, the stuff is everywhere.

Stranglekelp (Herb)

Found exclusively underwater.
Used most frequently in underwater breathing potions.
The whole of the plant can be eaten, but it is very salty, and rubbery when fresh.
When used in cooking, it can be used either in powder form, or chopped. It can also be eaten raw.

* WARNING *
Stranglekelp is often very, very deep down and as such, a water breathing potion or spell may be advisable if you intend to gather it.

Commentaire de Schnoodledorfer

Found exclusively underwater.

Not quite true. It can be found on the beach above water in the Zoram Strand in Ashenvale, at least. It's almost always underwater, though.

As far as underwater breathing goes, that is nice, and so is being able to swim quickly. The aquatic form available to druids is very nice. Sometimes there are bubbling fissures at deep depths, particularly if the is a quest in the area, that allow anyone to breathe underwater for a while.

It's probably also worth noting that the levels of monsters you might encounter vary widely depending on the location.

Commentaire de Arrzarr

Another very good place to find stranglekelp is around the shore of wetlands.

Commentaire de 485572

Found more than what is on the map.

Commentaire de Thottbot

It's under 90 now. Maybe 80 or 85. I noticed somewhere in the 80s that I was to collect it.

Commentaire de Thottbot

get out of darkshore and go to wetlands.

Commentaire de Thottbot

found some inside Black Fantom deeps.

Commentaire de Thottbot

There are super much stranglekelp on the zoramstrand. just swimaround there and you will find alot of it

Commentaire de Thottbot

its used in free action potion

Commentaire de Thottbot

There is one reliable EASY stranglekelp drop near the Zoram Strand. Swim out along the cliffs at the south end of the beach until you find it. I have made flights there for that purpose and it has always been there. of course, there are other drops in the area, but most are well guarded. Good luck!

Commentaire de Thottbot

Stranglekelp is used in a bunch of alchemy recipies, especially any from 120 skill to about 180. One of the recipies is a water breathing potion (it also requires some blackmouth oil you get from, not surprisngly, the oily blackmouth). My utility gatherer is a lv22 Warrior with Skinning/Herbalism and FIshing, cooking and first aid. He gathers the kelp, fishes for blackmouth, then mails stacks back to the mage, who, in turn, sends back a stack of 5 water breathing potions, which give a lot of herb gathering time.

If you're looking for spots, hit the Wetlands. Hands down it's the best place for mid-range characters (20-40) to gather kelp. But beware-- Blizzard has lvl 22-24 or better camping the areas where the kelp pops.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Things I've done to farm stranglekelp effectively are:

Use a druid, get druid to level 18 and get seal form. Swimming up and down the coast is much easier when you're fast and don't need air.
Download the addon "Gatherer". This will help you by keeping track of where stranglekelp appears. Herbs have pre-designated spawn locations, however they aren't always spawned. This addon will allow you to map out specific points so you can avoid areas that never seem to have it.
Places I've found for stranglekelp that are fairly safe for level 18 are Westfall and Darkshore. I personally prefer Westfall because the coast is easier to navigate.

I've been consistently selling stranglekelp for 3g/stack and haven't had much success at higher prices.

I also send my kelp to another account which is stationed near the AH. There is an hour delay in sending items through mail, but it helps me avoid flying to IF every time I need to sell.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Where is a good place for Horde players to get this plant?

i have been alliance and saw tons of it off the coast of the wetlands and Darkshore.

Commentaire de Thottbot

i hour and only 15 dude go to wetlands and swim up and down the north and west side of there and ull get about 20 in 30 mins. lvl 28-29 in the north lvl 23-24 in the west

Commentaire de Thottbot

Stranglekelp -> Elixir of Defense -> Toughened Leather Gloves, which are not only blue but the pattern is learned from a trainer.

Commentaire de Thottbot

On my way from Stranglethorn to Booty Bay, i find alot in the ocean near STV. Hope this helps anyone.

Commentaire de Thottbot

On Earthen Ring, the single biggest users of Strangle are alchemists making Elixir of Defense for cloth and leather armor guys. Don't know a druid or rogue who would get into a fight without one of these; can't speak for cloth armor guys. Defense potions of all strengths are probably the biggest sellers at the ER AH, and while the prices might not be as high as some other servers, you will sell everything you can make within the 8-hour slot.

Thanks for some of the hunting tips; my alchemist was having a tough time finding enough. She's a druid and aquatic form is simply killer.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Zoram Strand is by far the best place to gather kelp. In about an hour and a half i had 43 stranglekelp total.

I've been getting about 10-12g (way too much IMO, but i dont complain) per stack of 20. You just have to sell when there isn't any other kelp in the AH.

I gather with my shaman, i use water walking and then just dive down when i find an herb.

Commentaire de Thottbot

its used in PVP free actoin Potions.they are used alot.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Follow the coastline south of Ratchet. In 5 minutes I find an average of 20. Usually in between Ratchet and Fray Island. :)

Commentaire de Thottbot

The 1.7 patch notes include bullet point saying "Significantly more Stranglekelp has started washing ashore to the beaches of the world." under the professions section.

Bigger supply, lower prices...

Commentaire de Thottbot

Note the new An'Quraj (sp?) turn-in for this item. Prices are going to go up.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Several people here have said Wetlands is the best place to find this. I must agree, and there are enough unguarded spots that even at low levels it's not too hard to get.

For those who are not:
A) undead;
B) warlocks with the breathing buff;
C) druids with aquatic form; or
D) using a breathing potion;

There is a simple method to getting this seaweed without too much danger to oneself. Someone used the term "water walking", and I think this might be what was meant.

Basically, one swims across the surface of semideep water, with the Find Herbs function turned on. When stranglekelp is located, swim until you are practically "on top" of the stranglekelp on the minimap, then swim straight down. Once you spot the kelp visually, change your course to get close to it (if it's unguarded). Harvest it, then swim straight up. You should be back with plenty of breath bar to spare.

It's best to use this method at Wetlands, some distance from shore. Generally stranglekelp far offshore is unguarded.

Edit: Note to self, it's STRANGLEkelp, not STRANGEkelp.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Fished it out of lushwater oasis

Commentaire de Thottbot

Is a shammy spell.

And to add something. This is an exellent money maker for people who just started out.

Water breathing etc. is nice, but in no way required.

Commentaire de Thottbot

All along the west coast of Ghostlands you will find this weed. One trip North or South usually gains me 12+ pieces in about 10-15 min.
Let me add, I find more in the deeper water.

Commentaire de Thottbot

According to the Stranglekelp node drops, you can get Golden Scale Shoulders off Stranglekelp nodes 180% of the time!

Woot woot!

Commentaire de Thottbot

If u walk from Ratchet to Northwatch hold along the shore, u will find alot of stranglekelp. Gave me a stack in an hour. Sold for 5g on ah per stack. Makes a good living for low lvls who have herbs. Just watch out for the mobs there, they are quite annoying.

gl .

Commentaire de Thottbot

Has anyone tried searching the North Sea? I can usually get about 2 stacks there in 30 mins (west of Ghostlands).

Commentaire de Thottbot

Off coast north of Menethil Harber drank water breathing poition that lasts 30 minutes hervested 26 Stanglekelp in 20 minutes - sell stack of 20 on my server for 12g not to shabby!

Commentaire de Thottbot

I found some along the shore of Ratchet.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Must have caught a farming day...I wanted to farm some of this herb to make some lesser mana potions for my alt. Got 12 from Zoram Strand. Went to Wetlands and didn't fare much better, however, there was a lot more in the far and deep waters of Southshore.

Commentaire de Thottbot

On my server they go for about 18g to 20g a stack, it sucks a ton because my twink priest burns through mana pots like theres no tomorrow. 's a good thing i made my friend go alch/herb, now he's a rich sob, n I get my steady stream of pots. Farmin' these is pretty cake no matter where you go.

Commentaire de Thottbot

lets face it, this stupid thing can be found under just about any large body of water

Commentaire de Thottbot

Been finding it along the coast in the Ghostlands, as well as the coast of Eversong Woods.

Commentaire de Thottbot

wear i can find the most stranglekelp
p.s. i am lo lvl.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Also can be gathered in the ocean of darkshore on the northern end.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I just spent 30 minutes swimming around west of Westfall and got a bit over 20 of them.
Score!

Commentaire de Allakhazam

U can catch a lot of SK in margins of tanaris in floating reckages with 160 skill and bobles u catch mithril boxes and in there there are SK bolts of runecloth mageweave green item i even had a blouted fish that inside gave me a star ruby ............

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Off shadowprey village, doing that shellfish quest i got heaps

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I have located stranglekelp but do I have to dive? How do I harvest it?

Commentaire de Allakhazam

If you are not an herbalist, you'll have to buy it in the Auction House

Commentaire de Allakhazam

This sold anywhere?

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Eastern and Western strands off shores of hillsbrad is excellent for SK especially out in deep waters

Commentaire de Allakhazam

It's *under* the water :) You have to change your view and swim down to harvest it.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I was able to get 43 in around 40 minutes off the cost of Silverpine Forest. just swam up and down collecting them and the mobs are lvl 13-15. easy to get there if your horde

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Only a median price of 10s? On Blackrock server, a full stack of 20 of these is going for 3g!

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Another great place is to just swim from Western Strand to the Eastern Strand (or vice-versa) in Hillsbrad. I saw one Stranglekelp, when I swam over to get it, another one appeared on the map and I just followed them along the way, usually always dropped 2-3 per gather, too. :)

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Can also be found in the lake around Fenris Isle, in Silverpine, in the undead area

Commentaire de Allakhazam

can easily be farmed in WETLANDS
...but they are in the water with SOME lvl ~25 murgols.. can be dodged!

...STRANGLEKELPS ARE ALWAYS FOUND IN DEEP WATER! (NOT "ON THE EARTH")

Commentaire de Allakhazam

what skill is needed ? i need these flowers for my recipe but they are extremely expensive.. :|

i'd rather make another char and pick them myself, so what skill needed?

Commentaire de Allakhazam

As an alliance mage passing through horde lands, my find herbs noted strangekelp at the bottom of Mystral Lake. Of course, there are lv25 Water Elementals who ate me. But for those that can handle it, it should be easy pickins'.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I have found this quite common off the coast of the Westfall

Edited, Sun Jan 9 19:26:35 2005

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Unless you are a Druid Herbalist with waterform, the only way you are going to farm this stuff successfully is to obtain the "Hydrocane" Rare Staff from Gnommer and get an Azure Silk Belt...any lower lvl tailor can make. The Hydrocane will give you underwater breathing..., the belt adds 15% to your swim speed. Make a macro to switch these out when needed and you are good to go...

I did not test this, but I happened to notice a 10% drop on School of Fish. Normally I let critters go, but if one of ten drops a SK, then I'm all for it.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I've had good success finding Stranglekelp off the coast of The Barrens, starting at Ratchet and swimming south.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Where can someone from the Horde find this?

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Does any1 know if you can buy it (both alliance and horde)?

Silverpine is not bad for Stranglekelp. According to my Gathermate 2 addon I've got nine nodes off the coast, nearly twice what wowhead is showing. That's weird because I use the wowhead looter and upload my data every day that I play.

Commentaire de DigitalDecaf

Does anyone know what leveling fish you need to start fishing stanglekelp in darkshore for example? and also do you need to be at specific pools or just any water
