TONS OF IT!!

Kommentar von 3185

Alright. Officially it's back in the game, I mined it just now in Nagrand :)

Kommentar von Cryptorchild

Just as a point, these are the high quality veins of Fel Iron, like silver/gold/truesilver. Just about anywhere that can be fel iron, can be Khorium. (So Hellfire is one of the best spots to hunt it)

Kommentar von 26513

I must say that the best place to farm this in in Nagrand... I easily fill a 18 slot bag every day with both Adamantite ore, Eternium Ore and Khorium ore. just be patient and keep farming. my record for filling a 18 slotter was 4 hours and 54 minutes and ONLY in Nagrand.

Kommentar von Vitchman

I see them spawn randomly across Nagrand...moreso in the southern side of the map around Oshu'gun. Don't go looking just for them...they should kinda pop up when you least expect it.

I'd have to say that i find 1 Khorium Vein in every 40-50 Adamantite/Fel Iron veins in Nagrand. The rate doesn't seem that high, but if you get pretty occupied in farming, you'll see more and more of them. Good luck. =/

Kommentar von Foxpaw

Lol, I didnt know they'd taken it out for a while.

And I've gotten a living ruby from these nodes both times I've mined them so far. (seen it once before when I was only 3 skill short with +mining on my dark leathers)

Kommentar von Feszy

As of 5/26/2007 the average spawn of these over normal veins is ~0.4%. Incredibly low. Also if someone with a low skill cant mine it usually someone who can comes through soon enough. Not like it de-spawns or anything,

Kommentar von 53290

I've also come across Khorium in Underbog, which is currently not listed above.

Kommentar von 72856

Confirmed, Khorium can replace all outland nodes (Fel Iron, Adamantite, Rich Adamantite) and has a ridiculous chance of finding them.

I mined Fel Iron / Adamantite / Rich Adamantite 164 times

And I mined Khorium Veins 7 times.

Basically, the chance a Khorium Vein will appear instead of Fel Iron / Adamantite or Rich Adamantite is 0.4% (very low chance)

Kommentar von Shivacode

For some reason, on my server Khorium is hard to sell, whereas Adamantite flies off the AH faster than light.

Thus, I curse at my screen when I fly up to where an adamantite node should be and find this purple POS.

Kommentar von 76764

Got one just southeast of Honor Hold, in that little trench.

Kommentar von 97178

Although I just got 375 mining yesterday I can assure u that Nagrand is the top area for khorium.
It must be like 12 times I saw khorium vein and couldn't mine them :(
One is almost there in the cave with the elite ogre at Warmaul Hill. Easy to find many of them if u r doing quests in the area. Good luck guyz!

Kommentar von Tanni

You may gather Khorium with a skill of 370 by using an + 5 Mining (https://www.wowhead.com/cata/item=11203) enchantement which is not that expensiv to get.

Kommentar von HyperNova

Nice idea about the mining enchant, BUT it's pointless. In the time it would take you to get the mats, find an enchanter, get the gloves enchanted, go back to outland, and find a khorium vein you could have EASILY mined 5-10 nodes for the last 5 points ok mining skill. Honestly, if you goto outland at lvl 58-60 with 300 mining you will be at 375 mining way before you hit 65.

Kommentar von 128486

I have NEVER found it in Hellfire........

Kommentar von Porcell

Didn't see anyone comment on this before. I just mined a khorium vein in the Skald area of northern BEM and I got Mote of Fire x2 drop. Not listed as possible drop under the Mining Tab.

Kommentar von 57929

im lvl 375 in mining, and ive mined alot since i lvl'ed 375, khorium veins are still a myth to me... Still havent seen one!

Kommentar von MerokoGaming

Might be worth mentioning that as of a few patches ago, obtaining blue quality gems seemed to have increased dramatically from Khorium Vein. At first I thought I was just lucky getting 2 blues in one khorium vein but the next 5 times I found a khorium vein, I obtained even more blues and some greens. This might be because of the rarity of this node as it's only found in one place per zone at one time (although they have been known to bug and appear twice in the same place)...but who knows. Happy farming

Kommentar von cattracks

I will say this, for my fellow Khorium Hunters, Don't get discouraged if you spend an hour or two and mabye find only 2 ores. Its out there just keep hitting a set route, and youll start doing your victory rituals before you know it when you see em.

Kommentar von 311352

Also can be found in Hellfire Peninsula, found twice but forgot the place.

Kommentar von 72402

Seems like the spawnrate has been buffed in Wotlk. Found 4 nodes withing hellfire peninsula during the last 5 minutes.

Kommentar von Nisu

x:51.05 y:14.91 Terokkar found a khorium vein

Kommentar von 305661

The best location to mine ANY ore is Nagrand) Of course khorium veins aren't the exceptions - there are fantastic number of mineral veins in Nagrand, and everyone can be respawned as a khorium vein

Kommentar von asloversgo

The hottest Vein/Node currently in-game.

Kommentar von 57406

It looks like the best spot to find it is Hellfire Peninsula. Players who are still leveling mining will encounter it, but wont be able to mine it until they move on to other zones. However, in the other zones, players are at max mining and can mine it if they come across it.

Kommentar von 447038

it's Huge!

Kommentar von 484638

little tip: on isle of quel'danas the 6 markers (3 are overlapping on the zone map) are the ONLY ones i have found thus grinding the nodes here may be easier to do than trying to search all of nagrand.

Kommentar von 445357

Khorium or adamantite, either way it's worth lots of money...

Kommentar von 563120

Be reading to turn hysterical when you are farming for khorium after certain amount of time. When I was farming for Khorium I would often mistake some mobs for a Khorium vein. I also every time I see another player I get this "OMG THEY FARMIN MAH KHORIUM" paranoia :P

So having pvp gear would be nice cause I'm sure I would be ganking anyone trying to mine my khoriums :P

Kommentar von Qwaneria

Khorium Ore isn't that difficult to obtain, it just needs to be actively farmed rather than searched for. What this means is the following:

Simply select a zone and start mining everything there, continually going around in circles. Every Outland vein you mine has a chance of repopping as a Khorium vein. Given that there are far less people in Outland these days than there were before Wrath of the Lich King, the chances are pretty good that you yourself are the next person to arrive at a vein when it has respawned. As long as you keep flying around mining every vein you come across and continue to do so, all the Khorium that repops is usually yours. From my own experience of mining like this in Nagrand, I usually get several Khorium veins each time I complete a circle.

I use two add-ons to help me farm it, which are great to have if you're a miner or herbalist anyhow: Gathermate and Routes. Gathermate keeps track of any veins you've come across, and you can import data from the Gathermate_data add-on so you won't have to discover everything yourself. With Routes you can then calculate the most efficient route to visit all possible spawn points in a zone, and display that route on the map and minimap. This makes the farming simply a matter of following a line and mining every vein you detect near it on your minimap.

This way it's only taken me a few hours to mine all the Khorium for my Turbo-Charged Flying Machine. Hope this helps.

Kommentar von 373521

Whenever I get bored with achievements or running 5-man dungeons and need to make a bunch of gold, I come to Nagrand in search of ore. I use no specific routes or addons to assist me, yet have had pretty good luck with the Khorium. Some days I'll find none, and once in a while I'll get a day like I did about a week ago. I hit 4 Khorium veins in a row. I think when it comes to something with as low of a spawn rate as Khorium, it's all luck. Keep the faith, folks. Happy mining.

Kommentar von Hawker

I say Isle of Quel'Danas is a marvelous spot to grind Khorium ores. It has no competition, since the island has been completely abandoned since WotLK, so when a Khorium Vein does pop up, it's sure to be yours. I've been riding around the edges of the island for about 3 hours now, I've collected about 40 Khorium ores, 500 Adamantite and 50 Eternium ores. I'm not gonna calculate the spawn chance, since I hate maths and it's my holidays. Anyways, happy mining, I'm gonna go go craft my Turbo-Charged Flying machine now, finally <3

Kommentar von 53930

As of patch 3.3.5. it appears that khorium veins no longer spawn in place of fel iron nodes.

This means khorium only spawns as a replacement to adamantite or rich adamantite nodes.

Kommentar von 351447

I spent several hours farming for my Turbo-Charged Flying Machine Control in Nagrand. My results are:

That's 6.15% of Khorium from all the ores I farmed. You only need 48 Khorium Ores for the Flying Machine, but I found another vein on my way back to Shattrath.

My advice is: be patient, very patient.

Kommentar von Lumathe

Sigh. You're being luckier than me, Darkfiend. I spent the whole afternoon/evening farming and got approximately half that amount of Khorium Ore. Similar levels of the other three metals though.
Patience is fine up to a point, but this very quickly gets frustrating =(

Kommentar von Daocpwnswow

I read the advice regarding Isle of Quel'danas, followed it - and hmmm, so what?
I also read the comment saying "I've been riding around the edges of the island" - jackpot! This plus the inland veins at the staging area is fantastic!

On my 3rd lap I spotted my first Khorium. Spotted my 2nd on the same run. I mined a node, read a comment here, came back - it had respawned. Underground Isle must be so crowded with minerals they fight for surface!

I've noticed a few things... on each run you are guaranteed something like 6-7 nodes. One is near a spot behind the portal from which you used to do something with a daily quest long ago, the demon invasion area. One is below MgT, either just where you enter the "naga area", or on the left turnm just before grass runs out. One is roughly in the middle of the naga area, soon before the cursed shred of land (where you did the daily bomber quest) One is (hahaha, just tabbed into wow, a vein had respawned right at my feet, where there only minutes ago was an identical one!) One is right where you reach the bomber area from the north naga side, cannot miss it, it's a short distance from the beach. Then one or two is located at either of the "ridges" in the big grass area, where the wretched roam. By ridge I mean the dark slopes in the grass, they're clearly pointed out on the map.

Between every say 4th run or so, to keep your mind off the monotom...something, stop by the village and melt your ores to free space!

I'll continue farming here now, but I don't wanna say that Outland Sucks!, once I found 2 khorium veins at the same time within the ogre cave in southern Blade's Edge, with a 3rd one in the camp just east. The ogre caves in Nagrand, the Death Forge in Shadowmoon, the mana forges in Netherstorm, all are great sights to remember when searching.
Oh... blue is no longer a colour I treasure, and I'm going on a cruise tomorrow. Wonder if they'll understand this excuse when I claim I have to stay in the bar, haha.

Kommentar von Morsmort

A few tips:

* Wanna farm in the Isle of Quel'Danas? - No flying there in case u forgot... yes u need to run... If you have a 310% mount or u're a DK then u will fly A LOT faster so U might want to stick with Outlands

* The self-claimed Khorium paradise in the Isle of Quel'Danas is utter bull@#$% IMO. I have spent at least 10 hours in the past few days, I mined a total of 9 ore...

* Don't believe stories like: "Khorium will appear where Adamantite was before... nonsense

Kommentar von katten

-----------
If you want those khorium power cores, place an alt or friend in area52 in netherstorm to camp the vendor, do 1 round in quel, relogg, check him, relogg back, to let the nodes spaws, repeat and enjoy!
----------

Quel'Danas aint a zone where you WILL find it, its just a easier place to handle and control the spawns.

Easier to spot competition etc etc.
Imo farming in nagrand CAN give you more khorium faster, or less, its all about luck, more nodes that can spawn khorium, but also shared spawns, so it can spawn in a different area next time.

Me myself, well, having full control and view of the nodes do help my mindset to farm ease a lot.

I dont need to dive every damn node and hope its a khorium or anything for that matter.

All of you who got 60000+++ adamantite.. sell it and buy khorium!
Having quel'danas as a simpler route to take I can multi task easier, check movies, read stuff and wahtever.
While on flying mount I need to have much more focus so I dont miss a node, get stuck or fly to far off.

It all depends on your playstyle, there is no magic trick to mine khorium.
Everyone can do it equally easy!
Its all about luck ;D
Keep on whacking those rocks!

Kommentar von rjoy007

For people who are checking the Isle to farm this, which i find to be a great place. Be aware that the node locations have changed a bit with the latest patch so dont count on your gatherer.

Kommentar von Nosyt

I ran two circuits around the Isle and found 2 Khorium veins.. actually 1 khorium vein that spawned in the same spot. The southern tip of the island where the undead are fighting. However, I left the zone as I got stuck in combat EACH circuit. I don't know if I was unlucky but I'd only recommend the Isle if you like relogging or running. :(

Kommentar von pengster

I just finished farming for Turbo-Charged Flying Machine in Nagrand.

Almost all of the mentionned above is still true.

It's a grind, nagrand and Isle of Quel'danas are nearly empty, and u have the droprate as described before. I tried most tips mentionned.

My approach:
Farming in Isle of Quel'danas has in my opinion an improved droprate. Problem there is that there are only a few spawnpoints and that u cannot use a flying mount. Therefor i would advise to go for Nagrand. I used a fast flying mount together with the hud display of the addon Gatherer.

Kommentar von 701035

This is a NIGHTMARE to farm.

Kommentar von 742422

I mined for khorium in Isle of Quel'Danas for 3 hours and here are my results

x282 Adamantite Ore
x32 Eternium Ore
x3 Khorium Ore
I guess it is just a matter of luck. I had my Alliance character and my Horde character frequently checking /who and I was the only one there the entire time.

Kommentar von NightmareMJ

as of 4.0 patch this node map of Isle of Queldanas is no longer accurate there is around 5 more new spawn locations for any ore veins on the island and the nodes will rarely respawn the same place twice in a row(usually alternating every other group spawn). As such only 5-7 nodes spawn per respawn cycle, and the chance for them to be khorium seems to have dropped immensely (done 20 some cycles now without a single khorium node though I may just be unlucky.).

Kommentar von 421871

After 3-4 hrs in Nagrand i got:

206 adamantite ore
168 fel iron ore
30 eternium ore and...
only 12 khorium ore! =(

Gonna try camping the khorium power core vendor now...

Kommentar von 800182

I just ran through Nagrand trying to get enough Khorium ore together for a Turbo-Charged Flying Machine. It took me roughly 4 hours over 2 days but I managed to collect 31 Khorium Ore, 24 stacks of Mote of Earth, 5 stacks of Mote of Fire, 3 stacks of Eternium Ore, 15 stacks of Adamanite Ore and 6 stacks of Fel Iron. I used GatherMate2 and Routes, set up correctly this will save some time, and tracked every type of vein in the zone. It's boring but effective if you really need the Khorium.

Kommentar von 783458

For me, the most common spawn location is in/around the lake North of Oshu'Gun, as this is a common flight path, it probably get's mined alot, so more chances at Khorium.

Kommentar von BOBJohnson

forgottenring is mistaken, or extremely unlucky, or I was extremely lucky (doubtful - I have horrible luck).

I went to the Isle to farm today. I only needed 15 ore for my mount, but here is my lap results:

1 Khorium vein, rest addy
1 Khorium vein, rest addy
1 Khorium vein, 2 rich addy, rest addy
1 rich addy, rest addy
1 Khorium vein, 1 rich addy, rest addy

So 4 out of 5 laps for me had a Khorium vein.

Altogether I got:

80 addy ore
13 eternium ore (extras in the addy veins)
15 khorium ore
70 motes of earth
15 motes of fire
2 deep peridot
3 flame spessarite

So it is still a viable farming location.

Kommentar von Eilonthay

I was in Mana Tombs during a random group recently and happened upon a khorium node...didn't have a chance to mine it because we were moving too quickly, and ended up going all the way back to get it when everyone else left, along with an adamantite node I'd missed.

Moral of the story, if you see nodes in dungeons, don't pass 'em up! I ended up with 4 khorium ores, 1 eternium ore, 4 motes of fire, 3 motes of earth, and a talasite gem, all from the one node. Talk about loaded--it was certainly worth the extra minute it took to run back!

Kommentar von 142125

Honestly, I can't really say I agree with all of the above posts. I think if you're powerfarming Nagrand over and over where everyone else is also farming, the chances of finding a node are even lower than what they already are. Granted it may have the most nodes, but instead of basing your location choice on the number of nodes, try going to the places where you aren't going to have competition. I flew from HP to Swamprat Post and went north up through Blade's Edge and scoured that whole map, then over through Netherstorm and that whole map. I found roughly 4 Khorium veins in 1.5 hours and didn't see anyone else farming, especially in Blade's Edge. Also wound up with 100 Adamantite Ore, 24 Eternium, 70 Fel Iron, and a number of gems for my JC alt.

Farming on weird hours also helps too. This was around 2pm EST if you can hit up your account then.

Kommentar von Deafproud

What the highest location to find Khorium Vein?

Kommentar von Levarus

I found 10 khorium veins within 15 minutes of farming in Nagrand, either I am super lucky or god loves me, in either case, most of them I found in caves, so i STRONGLY advise anyone who is looking for khorium veins to check in the caves around Nagrand.

Kommentar von TheRealLink

I was in Nagrand a day or so ago and randomly ran into three right in a row for 11 ores. Otherwise, I've mined a lot in Zangarmarsh, Hellfire, and Nagrand recently and barely come across them.

For those of you who might have played FFXI, this reminds me of ironically, Khroma ores. Those were a rare mine-up in only one zone of the game and I estimated after too many hours to admit that they had a 0.001% chance of popping. At least WoW Khorium nodes aren't *as* rare and are a BRIGHT purple to boot ;).

Not mined enough in WoW yet to give you a firm % rate. I believe all three points in Nagrand were originally Adamantite or Rich Adamantite as well.

Kommentar von 584168

My personal reccomendation is to farm these in Quel' Danas. there is rarely anyone there, and you can get about 2-3 of these per lap of the island.

Kommentar von 502945

Am I suddenly getting love from the RNG, or has the spawn rate of these gone up since the patch? Must have seen 10 of these over the last 2 days farming the Bloody Rare achievement

Kommentar von 509794

I think the spawn rate has increased. I'm finding a lot now and RNG usually doesn't love me this much.

Kommentar von 880233

The rate of these purple bad boys has indeed increased mainly evident in the current AH prices. i remember a few months back they were going for 100g per ore/bar (varied), now I can buy them for 20g each. So glad I unloaded my stockpile before the rate increased. Good news for engineers trying to level though.

Kommentar von 880462

Nagrand is def good spot for this ore. To top it off if your an engineer there are tons of windy clouds to tap into for Mote of Air. Primal Airs still fetch a very hefty price on the AH.

Kommentar von Mightylink

These things seem to be crazy rare now, not sure which patch it changed but I've only been able to find 1 vein in the last 2 days of grinding, 1 vein! And auction prices are absolutely insane now, over 50g just for a single ore and buyout prices into the thousands for a stack, what the heck happend to this, why did blizzard nerf the spawn rate so bad!

Kommentar von 920140

As of this current patch, the rate (for me) (so far) is Zero. ZIP. Nada. And I've been gathering minerals in Nagrand for ONE WEEK.

So, forget Khorium in Nagrand. I mined riched veins, normal deposits, you name it. Nothing with the 'khorium' name on it. Tagging it as out-of-date as I post this comment.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Anyone seen any vein after last update ? They seem to have disapered, and prices on AH have tripled...?

Kommentar von Thottbot

i saw one yesterday but only had mining 344 :(

Kommentar von Thottbot

Just saw one while flying to Shadowmoon from Shatt

Kommentar von Thottbot

Actually flew back to Stonebreaker just to mine it... I haven't found any veins in a couple weeks, it was just a little too tempting.

Kommentar von Thottbot

i think the khorium veins have gone more scares nowadays

Kommentar von Thottbot

Rare but still exist

Kommentar von Thottbot

There are a couple in Blade Edge - One near Gruuls? and another towards the bottom right - can't remember the vill name. There's a couple o caves near by. I'll add co-ord next time im there.

Kommentar von Thottbot

The Khorium is still there I have mined 3 in the Southwind Cleft cave in the last 24hrs. The last one was at (52.37, 56.00) in Negrand and I also got a Noble Topaz from the vein.

Kommentar von Thottbot

these veins are amazing for gold :D
while farming cobras in Nagrand, 2 of these veins popped up pretty quickly and from mining them i got:
7 khorium ores (35g on my realm)
15 motes of fire (40g)
5 motes of earth (3g)
so about 78g from 2 veins :)

-_- Coconutfury
Cenarius realm

Kommentar von Thottbot

I was farming fel iron in hellfire and found two korium viens and they weren't that far apart

Kommentar von Thottbot

never found one of these .... following all the maps available but no :(

Kommentar von Allakhazam

These veins take 375 mining to mine. Khorium, like silver or gold ore, replaces a current node of all Outlands ore. That means that when a vein of Fel Iron/Adamanatite/ Rich Adamantite respawns after someone mines it, it has a small chance of respawning as a Khorium Vein.

How high does your mining need to be to mine one of these babies?

Kommentar von tangomas

we SERIOUSLY need to update this information! I'm following the locations in nagrand, and they're either not there anymore, or now adamantite!
