This drops in the Underbog in Coilfang Reservoir from many of the mobs and can also be harvested off the ground. It's a great way to get Sporeggar rep.

Commento di Tiforix

Supposedly it's possible for a Rogue or Druid to solo-stealth into the Underbog and grab some of the spawns without aggro'ing anything. I'm gonna try it as soon as my Druid reaches level 64.

I've been solo stealth running these in Underbog (70 rogue) since honoured with Spores to get to exalted, and all I have to say is. This is absolutely worth it.

There are some that are a little to close to mobs and will attack you when you go for them, but after a run or two you should have a good feeling for what's safe and what is not. Pack lots of flash powder. If you're close to water though you can run into the water to lose agro and restealth, but be careful... the fish are stealth detectors.

I suggest for a path to pick up what you can in a starting area, but don't panic if you don't see some of your regular spawns not around. I've been unsuccessful in trying to pick up the chest close to the entrance ;.;

From there start heading up to the naga, you'll find a couple more on the way. Now, if you want you can start heading back and you might find a few more have spawned in the beginning but probably not as it's pretty quick to get this far.

If you don't turn back, you -can- get by the naga. Simply sprint (starting in stealth) and vanish after you've made it a few feet to the ramp on the inside. And if you haven't gotten dotted or something on the way, they stealth detectors will leave you alone :D Here you can pick up the chest (make sure to distract the patrol over here) and continue on. There aren't many Hibi's beyond this point but you'll get about 3-5... what's important though is while you were waisting time here and you come out the end of the instance you're back at the beginning, and all the beginning spawns you might have missed, will be up for sure!

Snag em and you'll probably finish the run with 15 total, and you won't have to worry about the instance locking you out because of to many reset by spending a bit of time getting the deeper ones!

Happy Farming!

Commento di ZzoOozZ

There are a fixed number of locations where these spawn. They aren't always there when you first enter the instance. After a short period of time they will appear. They must be on some type of timer.

Commento di 32440

A 70 mage can solo farm these as well. Kill the first two mobs (single pulls) at the beginning. Use invis to get by the next pack of 3 and hug the left wall around toward the water, pop out in the corner there.

Then hug the edge of the water to make your way around and you can pick up a few spawn points. Reset and repeat.

If the land mobs agro you jump in the water and after a moment they will reset, just be careful of the fish, find a safe spot in the water you can run back to before you do anything risky.

Commento di 61319

Above info is correct, as fairly well fera druid im able to solo 2 steath detecting mobs very easy mix of blues and few kara epix, just tank them to death. Got 30 of them in around 1h on 1st try. Should be better after some practice i hope.

Commento di 72128

This can be easily done by a 62 rogue. I suggest running with only rings, trinkets, cape, and throwing dagger though. I can get usually 5-8 per run. Deffinatly bring lots of flash powder. If you have the duskbat drape you can drop from the walkway past Hungerfen down to first level and remain in stealth.

I don't know if it's allowed to post guidelines on external sites. If so, please excuse my lack of knowledge and delete this post :)

< THIS GUIDE WAS DONE FOR TBC! NEW GUIDE IS UP FOR WOTLK! THIS GUIDE WILL BE LEFT HERE FOR INFO! >

I'm glad you liked it.

Okey, so I'm now Exalted with Sporeggar, and I got to tell you, this is one of the easiest rep to grind for rogues and druids.

There is 13 spawns for Sanguine Hibiscus, but you can only herb 12 of those places (In some rare cases, you can only herb 11, as one spawns to close to the adds.)

The good thing about these plants is that when you herb one, another one will spawn. So for each run you will end up with 12 herbs.

--> PICTURE <--

1. Stand against the wall and you will be ok. (SAFE)
2. Wait for the Sporebats to fly away (SAFE)
3. Wait for the Sporebats to fly away (SAFE)
4. This one is the spawn that sometimes wont be able to herb. It depends on what spawn that is closest to the herb. When you aproach, stand just as close so he wont agro. When he walks away from the plant, run forward and herb it ASAP! (Semi-SAFE)
5. Stand at the water, when the Sporebats fly past, run up and herb (SAFE)
6. Watch out for Bog Lord (SAFE)
7. Just herb it (Super SAFE)
8. Watch out for patrol (SAFE)
9. This spawn is impossible to herb (NON SAFE)
10. Just herb it (Super SAFE)
11. Watch out for Patrol, they fly past this spawn 2 times, so take it directly after they have flewn by (SAFE)
12. Watch out for Bog Lord (SAFE)
13. Stand at the edge, behind the Bog Lord. When he walks forward, run up and herb (SAFE)

Follow the numbers, as this rout will be the easiest and safest. The big red rings show you the hardest parts that you should not walk in, no matter what. Her there is to many mobs, and patrols from every way, and you will most likely die if you try to take a shortcut.

The spawn places is random, but all 13 places will spawn in a timespan of 10-15mins, which is very good. If you always walk out with 12 herbs every run, you will always reset the instance without running out of time, and therefor that 5instances / hour rule wont apply as when your on your 5th run, you will have been there for atleast an hour already.

*Editnote*

This was pre-WotLK, lvl 80's can without a doubt solo the instance, atleast the trash, so all spots are now safe.

Commento di 90764

Nice guide really ! What was your level when u gathered em? I couldnt get more than 6 or so each run even though i looked at yout picture - some of them just werent there. I also got a problem with reseting the instance - what do i need to do that?

Thx and bye!

Commento di 36943

you can get the ones past the stealth seers if you do a little tricky jumping on the crack to the left of them ;)

Commento di Felicia

There is ofc some flaws in the guide. I was lvl 70 at the time, gear is not important (I ran naked to not risk repair bills) I guess you could start using the guide around lvl 68-69~.

Also, I am a druid, and thus I don't have vanish. I suppose a rogue could get some more of the spawns with a good timing of the vanish.

And Wokki, about flowers aint being there. There is an amount of spawns in the instance. I have not had the chance to check how many spawns there is behind the guards that sence stealth, but lets say there is 20 spawnpoints in the instance. On all those 20 spawnpoints, 10 or so is always spawned in the instance. So when you pick one, it will spawn on another spot.

Lets say when you enter, there is only 6 out of 13 that have spawned, if you pick those 6 spawns, just sit tight and wait for them to spawn in another spot. Also, once you have gathered one spot, don't sit and wait for a flower to spawn on that spot again, as it will take a to long time.

You would be able to get all the 12(11) spawns within a 15 minutes time, and be out and reset it. To reset the instance, you just walk out of the instance, rightclick your portrait and chose "Reset all instances".

Commento di Flameseeker

I'm fairly certain that these don't respawn anymore, so after you do a run, you now need to reset the instance to spawn another set of them.

Commento di 64664

Droprate of these by the monsters in Underbog is very low. In a group i only got 1 per 2 runs.
I harvested most of them by just stealthing past patrols. I think there are a little under 10 of them in Underbog. I could be wrong ofc.

Commento di cece

The total Sanguine Hibiscus needed is as follows to go from Friendly to Exalted with Sporeggar:

Friendly->Honored: 6,000 Rep
Honored->Revered: 12,000 Rep
Revered->Exalted: 21,000

Total Rep Needed: 39,000

- - -

39000 (Rep Needed) / 750 (Rep Awarded) = 52 (Quest Turn-In)
52 (Quest Turn-In) x 5 (Sanguine Hibiscus) = 260 Total (Sanguine Hibiscus)

Simply put, you need 260 Sanguine Hibiscus to go from Friendly to Exalted.
* 240 Sanguine Hibiscus For Humans due to Diplomacy.

Honored->Exalted: 220 Sanguine Hibiscus
Revered->Exalted: 140 Sanguine Hibiscus
- - -

Bring Me A Shrubbery! (Initial Turn-in rewards 11,000 exp + 750 Rep)
Bring Me Another Shrubbery! (Repeatable for 750 Rep)

Commento di 36754

Just to note you can farm them as a Rogue at least, at lvl 63. I did it on my rogue to get the rep reward dagger. You can't get all spawns but 5-9 is a good amount and it takes a certain degree of patience and judgement aswell. Good fun.

If you have a the Rocket Boots Xtreme, after the first boss and half way to the Naga you should notice the cliff edge to the left. You can jump there with the boots and pick up the Hibiscus. Then go to towards the left tunnel where the Black stalker is, should pick up 2 more if your lucky then drop down and your at entrance :)

Commento di 52039

Just thought I'd add that on my 70 Rogue I can get the one that spawns behind The Black Stalker (don't think this was mentioned so far) by distracting him at his furthest point in patrol, then looting at max range.

Commento di 126504

I've been soloing the instance on my t4/t5 prot warrior. All the bosses are skippable -- the first is far enough away from the bridge that he won't agro, the second you can jump into the water to avoid him, the hunter boss you can simply walk past, and black stalker has a wide enough path that even without having a rogue's distract trick handy you have more than enough time and room to run past him to the exit/entrance. That said you can also take them down too.

Your amount of hibiscus collected per run can easily double or triple from drops from mob kills. I walked away from 1.5 runs with over 50 of 'em just this past weekend. Never mind the chance for greens/blues to vendor/shard.

When I was first doing this I was concerned that the bats closer to the hunter boss would be a potential problem because of all the fears but to my surprise and delight they don't fear at all when you're the only person in the instance. I don't even have to resort to berserker rage, trinkets, or such to contend with it.

It's AH-able, correct?

These exists in real life too!: Hibiscus
just a fun footnote :) Check out the link, i found it quite funny

Commento di StellHell

To be fair, Hibiscus is a genus of plants and Sanguine is the color of the flower (reddish).

So, Sanguine Hibiscus is simply translated "Reddish Flower".

Commento di 157501

These can also be traded, if you find someone who want to and have the money ;D
Thus, if you don't have time, you can still get the Sporeggar reputation if you have enough money.
And please, if you are going to downrate me, just tell me why.

Commento di Alderaan

Sanguine Hibiscus respawns in the same instance after some time.

Keep into account that if you are doing the heroic UB or normal one and you do a full run you can get hibiscus twice.
In fact at the end of the run you can run again in the same instance without resetting and you get quickly the hibiscus spawned in the meanwhile.

Otherwise you can buy hibiscus at Action House, but it's not so cheap getting exalted.

Hibiscus Farming to get exalted (from neutral):
6000 honor points to Honored, that is to say 8 x 5 = 40 Sanguine Hibiscus.
12000 honor points to Revered, that is to say 16 x 5 = 80 Sanguine Hibiscus.
21000 honor points to Exalted, that is to say 28 x 5 = 140 Sanguine Hibiscus.

Commento di Zingerac

With my level 70 sub rogue I'm able to grab 18 of these per run.

6 of which come after the stealth breaking naga.

Distract the second Underbog Lord when he is as close to The Black Stalker's room as possible and then there is one more in TBS's room

(my first post w00t)

Commento di Acetylcholine

For those of you who are able to AOE grind, such as prot paladins and maybe druids/warriors?, you can farm these things very easily in Underbog, non heroic. Simply kill the various mobs/pats up until the Naga part, and skipping Hungarfen if you are not able to kill him efficiently. The mobs have a high chance of dropping Sanguine Habiscus, and if you look around behind you as you loot them from the ground, there's a high chance that more nodes will spawn behind you.

A single run takes me, as a Prot Paladin, about 30 minutes to complete, and I can net upwards of 25-30 Habiscus per run. It's incredibly efficient to get Sporeggar rep up this way.

And this isn't even taking into account the gold you make from trash drops, the greens/blues that you find, various mining/herbing nodes, and the absolute lack of PvP interference.

Commento di Chronalis

Since 3.0, ANY 70 with decent gear can solo UB normal. As a prot pala, i find that SoWisdom, combined with JoLight keeps me going without any mana/hp breaks. The only boss i skip is the Hydra-type; Ghaz'an. He does a stacking nature damage DoT that eventually becomes unhealable solo. But, out of each run, i walk away with around 28 Sanguine Hibiscus, sometimes more, sometimes less.

Just a tip; after clearing, go back through the instance and look for other spawns of it. I think you'll find that at least 4 of them will have respawned in another place.

Commento di 240327

I farmed those flowers very easy with my druid 70. After few run I was able to recognize what node were safe and what not.
I completed my exalted reputation from friendly to exalted in about 6 hours of farming, in just one day and I was also doing other things in real life ( I am a mother and I have to look after two kids and a family :) ). So I suggest this way to gain reputation to all player who have a rogue or a druid. Person above me have already wrote all good suggestion to do it in a better way.

Only one tip: for all my trips in Underbog I gathered herbs wearing NO GEAR, only tabard.... So, in case of aggro and death, I didn't have repaired my items, I did not spent one coin... Try it!

70 feral druid named winterwine blackhand
have no problem soloing most of the instance
3rd and 4th bosses i usually avoid
definitely an easy way to farm sanquine

Commento di Hoboonaparkbench

As a 80 restoration-specced Shaman I find these are a much more efficient way to farm Sporeggar reputation than the "Now That We're Still Friends" quest.

Even though the naga quest only requires killing 18 mobs, they're so spread out, that me finding/killing those 18 mobs requires around 8-10 minutes per turn-in (even though I only cast 2 LB and a ES to kill any of them, no down time).

Running through Underbog (Normal) I can get 20 of these per run without killing any mobs other than Muselek (there's one in his crevice), and the Black Stalker (he has a 100% drop chance on these), and only take 20 minutes per 'clear'.

Commento di 235366

As an 80 Disc priest this is a breeze. I just hit pretty much all the spawning locations, if I get too close to mobs just holy nova them down and hope for extra hibiscus, think about killing the bosses but usually dont, and mind soothe muselek to get the one next to him, and get like 25ish per run. Power Infusion and Pain Suppression are also nice if you get in a dangerous situation.

Commento di Umega

I soloed a Sanguine Hibiscus run in Normal Underbog as a lvl 80 protection paladin, soloed almost all the mobs and bosses easily in the dungeon (apart from the naga, because I didn't think they would drop any of the flowers) and picked up all of the Sanguine Hibiscus spawns as I could find and managed to collect a good load of 28 flowers at the end. I Could of got way over 30 if I killed *everything* in the dungeon.

Commento di Returner99

Took me 7 runs as a level 80 Protection Paladins to get from halfway through Friendly to Exalted, only turning in those.

I would usually get between 35 to 45 per run, when clearing all of the fungal mobs, as well as looting every single spawn(including running through the instance after clearing it, to grab the later-spawning ones).

One run was about 20 minutes, so it's quite easy to reach Exalted this way.

(7-8 is probably the average number of runs needed, but some might be able to do it in six, while others have to run it nine times)

----

My gear was the best available from heroics, as well as the ring from Anub'Rekhan.

Commento di 301493

I've been doing this on my 80 warrior, just basic blue and some crafted epics all tank gear I'm able to kill everything here no issues. My suggestion is if you can kill everything do it up to first boss, I skip first and second bosses then kill the last two since they seem to be sitting on some spawn points usually. Nothing past first boss except bog lords between 3rd and 4rth boss will drop this so if you can skip them (You can if you are smart)

Another thing to keep in mind someone in here already said it but to clarify picking one will force one to spawn at another empty spawn point(Or at least by picking it allows some kind of timer to start leading to a plant spawning on an empty point somewhere) They don't seem to double up so if you picked one there earlier skip it later. I just did this place and had the whole first area before first boss empty and no spawns on the ground there but when I went to exit I notice one then another and the whole room was full so a second lap if you did a decent clear may be worth it.

Commento di 284419

As an 80 lock, im grinding this item for rep.

Best way to do it without defeating the first boss is to pick up any spawns on the first level, as well as down EVERYTHING on that level.

I ended up with 25 from 1 clearing of the first level.
Then simply zone out reset and go again.

Commento di 325534

My 2p. I am shadow p, lvl 73, went to the instance 2 times on my own. First time got 6 of them, second - 10 (mobs+harvest). Did only the very beginning of the instance, killing groups of 3. The reason I went for them is they are very expensive on my server, 7-8g each at least. I keep buying any of them that come up for 1-4g and sell 8+

Commento di 111622

80 Mage, I've learned that these also drop from random trash, mostly near the beginning. Good and easy, the Gaints have a wide aggro range though. Only problem is time, being a non-herbalist I've found that it's faster to do the repeatable quest to kill Naga in Zangmarsh for 750 rep each, as well as Fertile Spores for 750 rep each. Both of these are faster and will take you to Exalted.

Commento di 232060

Just farmed these to get from honored to exalted with Sporeggar.
As a level 80 prot pally in mainly 25 man gear it was quite easy, can just solo the trash in a matter of seconds.
Did a full run of Underbog and looted 39, 22 of which were just up to the first boss.
So i farmed until just past the 1st boss and back to the door because the ones on the ground can respawn in different spots. Least i got from 1 run just past 1st boss was 18 most was 26 only took me about 3 hours to get the rep i needed, about 15 mins a run.

Commento di Firedwarf

The easiest way to farm these is by doing underbog. Its even easier if you are a dwarf, because "Find treasure" works on the hibiscus

Commento di 157206

One of these just dropped for me off a trash mob in Steamvaults.

Commento di 258545

doing a full run, abt 20 misn id say, i get 35 hibiscus solid. Wasnt able to push the number beyond that, and i have to say that the thrash u sell and the pet + tabard at the end r well worth it, as is another rep at exalted...

At 5250 rep a runs u only need 4 runs to get from revered to exalted... and 3 runs from honored to revered, and 2 runs from friendly to honored. Id say that 10 runs is all it took, but i think its even less. 39.000 means 8 runs, 7 if u do the UB qs.

Commento di Felicia

Time for an updated verision on my guide on the Hibiscus. I wanted to become exalted with my Death Knight and doing TBC instances in WotLK is a hard thing to manage, atleast on my server. I rushed up to 80 and started over with my farming again.

This guide is for lvl 80's, but by all means; Everyone that can solo bosses with 75.000hp, this guide is for you aswell.

The big difference from my last guide is that at lvl 80 you will clear the whole instance and therefor grabbing the spawnpoints on the other side of the nagas. I ran a couple of runs and are kinda sure that this is all spawnpoints in the instance.

So, lets begin shall we!

--> THIS IS THE NEW, IMPROVED MAP <--

(Find Treasure and Find Herbs both works for easier locating the spawnpoints)

First off you start killing your way thru the 13 first spawnpoints, kill everything on the bottom floor as they all have a chance on dropping hibiscuses. If you can't find all the 13 spawnpoints while you kill the trashmobs, you should just continue anyways, as we will get back to that later. Kill Hungerfen aswell, as he can drop a hibiscus.

Try to ignore as much nagas as you possibly can, as these dont drop any hibiscus at all. Jump down the water and kill Ghaz'an in the water as he can drop a hibiscus and start looking for new spawnpoints (blue spawnpoints are the spawnpoints on the upper part of the instance).
You should try to ignore the mobs here aswell, as they don't drop hibiscuses.
(The areas marked as red on the mad is deadzones that don't drop any hibiscuses, just grab the spawnpoints there and move forward).

Kill Swamplord Musel'ek, even thou he dont drop any, there is a spawnpoint just behind him. Continue killing the big Underbog Lords and also kill The Black Stalker for a chance on some more hibiscuses. When this is done, you should jump down to the start again and run back to those spawnpoints you didn't find the first time. In one run, every spawnpoint will have an hibiscus, so you should net 20 hibiscuses just from spawnpoints.

Each run net me around 40 to 50 (30 at worst, up to 60/70 at best) and a run takes around 15-20 minutes. With this guild you will most likely go from Friendly to Exalted with just 5-6 runs if you don't get to unlucky!

Good luck with grabing your Tiny Sporebat! :>

Pretty easy for 63 rogue.

First off pick the very first one and head right, then around the rock that leads up to the first boss, 2 shrubberies usually spawn there. Then another one might spawn right near the ramp leading to the first boss, pick it up, vanish, since you'll surely get agro. Then up the ramp, another one usually there. Past the boss and pass the bridge, another 3 there, one is tricky with bog dude guarding it, just wait till he turns around and faces away from you and pick the shrubbery up, if you have 3 camouflage taken, like I have, you'll be able to restealth just in time before he turns back to you, otherwise you'll need another vanish. Then I drop down to the entrance area, by the water, another one usually there, pick it up and vanish, then head out of the instance. Reset, rinse and repeat 5 times.

Each time usually takes around 5 minutes and yields 7-8 shrubberies each. When you're no longer able to reset instances, head out and kill the sporebats, the great thing about those, is that they are skinnable, and relative to their level, they drop a lot of leather and very few scraps, so as rogue/LW you get the spores and knothide as well. Kill those for an hour and then just head back to Underbog.

Commento di 6317

The other week i decided to do as much rep grinding as i could, due to the impending release of the Cataclysm update and everything becomes a feat of strength, i wanted to actually say i had done it, before it all got updated. Anyway i found that Sporegarr was my lowest rep and decided to leave that till last. I need not have worried, Get your but in to underbog. You can clear up to the ramp where the Naga are, just after the first boss ( you dont need to kill the boss its not worth the effort) and you can make at least 25 hibiscus from looting the bodies plus the ones you pick up on the way.

To do this clear took me around 15 mins, then i walked back to the entrance and picked up the odd one that had respawned. After about an hours work i had 115 Hibiscus, and handing them in netted me 17250 Rep. Now compare that to the drop rate of the Cenarion Circle and the Kurnei rep grind and you can see it's a damn site better. It took me just a little under 2 Hours to get from friendly to Exalted as a Level 80 Paly Tank. The easiest one i have ever rep ground ever and i was thinking it was going to be my hardest. :)

Commento di 191097

just got 37 from a single FULL clear (except for naga dudes) as a lvl 80 ret pally, kill every mob before nagas, while there are some later on I'd be faster to jump to the water and out of instance and reset and repeat it, also with Thanksgiving buff you get +10% more rep which DOES stack with human racial, and you'll be able to turn in for 900 rep which is quite sweet ^^

Commento di 492890

I just wanted to add my experience farming these for Rep. Was on my LvL 80 Hunter went BM spec so i could use my Rhino (probably not needed). First thing, KILL EVERYTHING, trying to dodge and avoid fights is harder then just mowing everything down.

Second thing is that it doesnt really seem to be worth it to venture into the Naga area and beyond. Ive gotten to where I just stop at the last bog giant right b4 the Naga start.

Grinding up to the last Bog Giant was netting me 20-35 Sanguine Hibiscus per run depending how lucky I got on the drops and respawns of the herbed ones, and was only taking me around 15min or so to clear all the trash to this point.
Going beyond that point to the end of the dungeon was netting me 5-15 extra but was taking me another 20 minutes to clear. So just running back and starting over turned out to be better, for me.

However if your also looking to farm up some BoE Greens and Netherweave and arent in a hurry Id say finish the whole run, youll get your 40-50 Hibiscus, plus the Naga and their slaves drop cloth and it seems like the Green drop rate is higher in the Naga and beyond, but that could just be my imagination. Hope some of this was helpful.

Commento di 551730

Also drops off Bog Overlords in The Steamvault. Obviously this isn't an alternative to running Underbog for the Hibiscus but if you, like me, are running Steamvault for Cenarian Expedition rep and aren't exalted with Sporeggar yet be sure to keep any Hibiscus you find! I ended up with about 30 of them grinding from Revered > Exalted with CE. That's easily 10%-20%+ of the farming for Sporeggar rep done while farming CE rep.

Commento di Micathius

On my hunter I've been getting between 30-40 a run, sometimes more depending on drop rate. If you're a level 80, I would suggest just walking through the Naga section for the handful or two of Hibiscus that can be picked up in the wasp hall. I wouldn't bother killing anything in there because none of them actually drop the plants, but at level 80 it's easy enough to walk right by them. Don't forget to grab the one on the end of the left hand path after Claw, but don't fall in. It's a long run back.

Commento di 581254

I know a lot of these posts are from Burning Crusade, but for me, as of 3.3.3, I just started farming the sanguine hibiscuses, hibisci? Whatev. Anyways, started farming this morning, and within two full runs, I farmed 55. Really easy farm, imo, I'll have to continue later though cause the girlfriend just woke up :D. Just thought I'd let you guys know, clear everything up to Naga, you can walk past most if not all of them. Clear bosses, and jump down at end to exit instance. Super super easy.

Commento di Jerodast

Sharing some numbers from my farming as an 80 priest.

Best strategy for me was to clear and collect up to the "Naga patrol bridge", but skip all giants and the boss. The giants occasionally drop but the rate is low and they take far longer to kill than the others. I essentially followed the route on Felicia's nice map up to 13, then dropped off the ledge there and circled back for respawns (Levitate is nice for the water here). Any plant 9 and below has the potential to respawn by the time you're on your way out.

Your time will vary depending on your gear, AoE abilities, and damage avoidance/healing skills. Your numbers should be similar to mine though - totals of
21, 28, 17, 21, 29, and 22
per run. The bolded numbers were my first runs of the day - not sure if it's a coincidence or not that these were significantly higher than the others. My one run that included the giants only gave me one drop from them and was several minutes longer.

You'll have to compare this to other methods on your own; I only tried the non-clearing method once each so the data on it isn't reliable. I never bothered going to the end - with no drops and such a long walk it seems like you'd be better off starting over.

A note on Glowcaps: if you don't have enough already to buy whatever you plan on buying when you hit exalted, I recommend you swing by the Glowcap area every time you head out for a UB farming run. If you wait to do them all at once afterwards, you'll probably pick the area clean and get quite frustrated.

A trick with these is to clear the entire instance, then drop down after the black stalker to the start. Then run through again, iy has quite a short spawn time and you will be able to pick up a few more this way.

an african hibiscus or a european hibiscus?

You can spend a couple hundred gold on these in the AH and buy your way to exaulted with Sporeggar. You'll need to do Bring Me A Shrubbery!

Commento di Allakhazam

And then place it slightly higher, so you get a level effect!

Vegi and Felicia both made a guide to farm these things as a rogue or druid for sporeggar rep, and they are quite accurate.

If you are snatching the hibiscus further in the instance as well as at the beginning then know this:

it is possible to get through the stealth seer's without a sprint through them and then vanish or whatever.

To the left of the stealth-seeing naga is a crack in the wall.

Simply angle your screen to the right/left. and press jump and forward at the same time (keep doing this until you are over the wall), its kind of tricky but once you get the hang of it you'll be farming for hibiscus without even burning vanish (if you're careful).
Good luck! =)

used for a quest, u need 5

Commento di Thottbot

Since these aren't soulbound and they can be vendored in general, could the quest they're used for be repeatable in the future? Or is it now?

Cause I want a race of mushroom men to exalt me.

Commento di Thottbot

It is indeed repeatable

Commento di Thottbot

This is, in fact, repeatable from Sporeggar friendly all the way to exalted.

Commento di Thottbot

when you first walk in the Underbog, there will often be one sanguine hibiscus just past the 2 patrolling sporebats. Kill each sporebat singly, then pick the hibiscus. there's a good chance one of the bats will also drop a hibiscus. exit reset instance. repeat til you're blocked from reentering an instance (for an hour).

Commento di Thottbot

There are several plants scattered around the Underbog that you can get to solo. Just pay attention to patrols and distance from mobs. If you aggro, vanish. None of the Bog Giant or Sporebat type of mobs can see through stealth.

Also, don't fall into the water, the Frenzy in there can see through stealth. I managed to walk off a cliff while not paying attention and died.

I'm pretty sure druids can do this as well.

Commento di Thottbot

the part about deleting the WTF folder to get around the instance cap is not true. I tried. repeatedly. If it ever was possible (which i doubt), Blizzard fixed it.

Commento di Thottbot

Watch the movie "Monty Python And The Holy Grail"!
In the movie you find the story about "The Knight's Who say.. NII!" They demand Shrubbery from King Arthur and his knights. After they found the Shrubbery and brought it to "The Knight's Who say.. NII!" they want another Shrubbery!

Blizzard's weird...

Commento di Thottbot

As a druid, i am able to get about 10-13 in a stealth run. Some of them spawn too close to mobs to get, but if your a druid, use soothe animal on the beasts if you can.

Also, the sanguine things tend to spawn in only a few set spots, and if you get them in one spot sometimes they will spawn in the same run in another, which is useful since you can only run it 5 times per day.

Commento di Thottbot

Can i buy the things on AH?

Commento di Thottbot

Okey, so I'm now Exalted with Sporeggar, and I got to tell you, this is one of the easiest rep to grind for rogues and druids.

There is 13 spawns for Sanguine Hibiscus, but you can only herb 12 of those places (In some rare cases, you can only herb 11, as one spawns to close to the adds.)

The good thing about these plants is that when you herb one, another one will spawn. So for each run you will end up with 12 herbs.

1. Stand against the wall and you will be ok. (SAFE)
2. Wait for the Sporebats to fly away (SAFE)
3. Wait for the Sporebats to fly away (SAFE)
4. This one is the spawn that sometimes wont be able to herb. It depends on what spawn that is closest to the herb. When you aproach, stand just as close so he wont agro. When he walks away from the plant, run forward and herb it ASAP! (Semi-SAFE)
5. Stand at the water, when the Sporebats fly past, run up and herb (SAFE)
6. Watch out for Bog Lord (SAFE)
7. Just herb it (Super SAFE)
8. Watch out for patrol (SAFE)
9. This spawn is impossible to herb (NON SAFE)
10. Just herb it (Super SAFE)
11. Watch out for Patrol, they fly past this spawn 2 times, so take it directly after they have flewn by (SAFE)
12. Watch out for Bog Lord (SAFE)
13. Stand at the edge, behind the Bog Lord. When he walks forward, run up and herb (SAFE)

Follow the numbers, as this rout will be the easiest and safest. The big red rings show you the hardest parts that you should not walk in, no matter what. Her there is to many mobs, and patrols from every way, and you will most likely die if you try to take a shortcut.

The spawn places is random, but all 13 places will spawn in a timespan of 10-15mins, which is very good. If you always walk out with 12 herbs every run, you will always reset the instance without running out of time, and therefor that 5instances / hour rule wont apply as when your on your 5th run, you will have been there for atleast an hour already.

These things respawn so it's always worth it to do a second pass after you've cleared everything to get more, especially after you finish the final boss and you're already by the entrance

Commento di Thottbot

Do the mobs in the heroic version also drop this item?

Commento di Thottbot

I had my Rougue and gathered the ones that were safe and exited the instance, re-entered but the instance doesn't reset for me. All the safe hibiscus are gone, and also the mobs I managed to kill have not respawned.

I don't get it...

Commento di spellenvy

Decided to try farming these on my druid. It's going ok, and Soothe Animal is a life-saver for close moments with the underbats. It's a little rough without vanish but if I can make it to the water I can avoid the run back.
