Apparently just by looking at the map, there's a ton of them in Sholazar Basin

Kommentar von MrGrouch

As a level 70, I ran a ring around the outside and skirted around some of the pillars and found an abundance of Rich Saronite and Saronite nodes (along with Titanium nodes). If you are careful, it is suprisingly easy to mine these with a level 70.

I went to here and it worked very well for me.

Just for those wishing to know the skill level to mine this it is 400. Just so you don't think you can take your 70 to a node and farm straight away.

I think Sholazar Basin is the best place to farm Saronite(as the map shows). Got 168 Saronite Ores and 30 Titanium ore in about 30 min just by circling around the riverbanks and the 5 Pillars.

These babys stay yellow until 450 ! :-) Easy leveling for mining

If the most upper poster meant that he was getting the veins from Zul'Drak. I think many people will be dissapointed.

First of, the run shown on the link takes you between level 76-ish mobs, with nodes inbetween them. So no way to get there at level 70. Unless your pet can tank them up while you loot the mine.
Also, doing that run only got me to 1 Saronite vein, which was trapped under a staircase. The other veins were all Cobalt.

I doubt the accuracy of the veins in Sholazar Basin, 337. While Zul only has 8.

Kommentar von Againigan

Sholazar is overrun on my realm as well. The best place I've found so far, is Wintergrasp. As long as you don't go there while a battle is going on, you should be fine.

I did a few laps around there earlier today and didn't come across any other miners. I found 3 or 4 Rich Saronite and at least 1 Titanium along with several regular Saronite nodes each lap I did.

I don't know why nobody has mentioned this, but Saronite is pure evil.

Sholazar Basin is no doubt the hottest farm spot in all servers, most probably you will find tons of people in that zone. Hence, I gave up the idea to farm in SB and go to Icecrown instead.

It is definitely has lesser people and nothing bad compare to SB. Follow this route, you can easily have 10 stacks of Saronite, few stacks of Crystallized Shadow and Earth and some Titanium within 1-2 hours.

Why isn't there Saronite Nodes at Saronite Mine in Icecrown? pretty wierd if u ask me...

Kommentar von flopfaint

If saronite is related to Yogg-Saron, and Yogg saron is supposedly under Grizzly Hills, Why is there no saronite there?

Kommentar von 303448

just something i've noticed - stay off the outer "ring" at the edge of the zone, as it seems to be a victim of quite heavy traffic. Staying closer till the centre will get you more, as less people venture there - on my server atleast (Stormscale)

Edit: In Sholazar Basin, that is

Kommentar von Benna1234

After around thirty minutes of mining, i'm pretty sure the amount of deposits in Sholazar Basin have been around halved as of 3.0.8.

Kommentar von garymce

I beleive the nodes that are shown on the Dragonblight map are in fact up at the edge of Wintergrasp, in case anyone lower than level 77 is getting their hopes up :-p

Kommentar von 304495

I mined some blue gems out of it... However, wowhead says it cant give you gems, so good to know for all i guess ^^

Kommentar von 317895

I was doing the beginning quest where you have to kill the 15 venture co. guys in a little circle i made 22 easy saronite ores not much but it works for taht small range

Kommentar von fatalicus

Amazingly enough, the drop rate is NOT 100% for saronite ore from these deposits.
I just mined one in Storm Peaks and the only ting i got was a Crystallized Earth! no ore!

I have the wowhead client so this might be updated when it uploads, but the again, it might not, since this most likely happens so rarely it still counts as near 100%, and not 99%

Kommentar von paszka

Green at 445.

Kommentar von 295692

As seen by the maps now i was in ice-crown and although the path was a little more difficult to figure out every time i ran by a saronite vein there was at least another sometimes 2 around it as well. They Spawn in clumps it seems like, and by the time you make it around the respawns have already hit. 18 Stacks of saronite from ice crown in about 1hr 30min, however titanium yeild was low i didnt care, no Allies to deal with.

Note: it was kind of difficult at some place being a warlock and most of the zone being undead fearing was not an option, i just skipped over the mob heavy areas.

it can dropp https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/item=36927

Kommentar von Schryver

Today I mined a saronite deposit that had NO saronite in it! WTF Blizzard

Icecrown vs. Sholazar Basin for Farming Saronite:

Competition is very heavy in Sholazar Basin, as stated before. My server has quite a low population, and I've seen multiple people on at 4AM on weeknights farming in SB. That said, people farm here for a reason. Spawn points are incredibly dense around the perimeter of the zone, and as such you can achieve a very regular farming circuit. Furthermore, mobs here are three to five levels lower than those in Icecrown, which makes it that much easier to deal with any mobs that may be guarding a node you're about to mine.

Icecrown is in many ways the exact opposite of SB when it comes to mining Saronite. Spawn points are heavily clumped up in discrete sections; I've seen up to three nodes appear on my minimap at the same time. Player competition seems to be a bit lighter, at least on my server, than in Sholazar. However, mobs here are considerably tougher than in Sholazar, especially in the northwestern areas, where the mobs are elite. Moreover, the nodes tend to be more frequently guarded by mobs in the first place; this may be due to positioning, but part of it is simply because the higher level mobs in Icecrown have wider aggro ranges.

My preference is to wait until off-peak hours and then farm in Sholazar. Icecrown may be more rewarding if you are a well-geared DPS class and killing the mobs around your nodes does not take long for you.

At location 30.4, 58.9 I mined Saronite Ore(1), Crystallized Shadow(1) and Twilight Opal(1).

Kommentar von kayerose61357

Sholazar Basin is the best for a-lot of Saronite Ore, and along the same general route you can get lucky enough to spot some Titanium Veins as well. Titanium are rare veins so if u dont get any, dont be worried, it took me a while to get 22 Titanium Ore.

This is also a good Ore to farm when u need gems, if u or someone u know can prospect the Saronite you get then you can most definatly get quite a few gems, i do this and got about 100 gems from the 500 ore i prospected plus the 400 i already have in the bank from being a JC..

5 hours of mining in Sholazar Basin.

500 Saronite Ore.
22 Titanium Ore.
35 diff gems, 10 being blue Quality.

I hope this helps a bit, i was also lucky with the Titanium becuase i was alone mining for 5 hours, so i didnt have to compete with other players, i sugest going and mining from 2 am server - 5/6 am server. its the most quite time to mine.

Kommentar von 451397

in just 10 min of mining Saronite i got
50 ore
2 blue gems
2 eternal earth
3 eternal shadow
and 6 titanium ore
and i got the ore at the basin

Kommentar von Vonara

For some reason nobody on my server goes to the pillars. It's a bunch of people on the outter rim. Of course I fly around it too, but I also go into the basin itself. I've found something really weird about each pillar in doing so: Every pillar has three ores at a given time. I simply circle the pillar, mine all three, then go to the next pillar, and pick up any more ore I see on the way.

Edit: Excluding Suntouched Pillar, the Venture company kind of makes it pointless to even try if there is an ore.

Kommentar von 462852

Its 1-7 saronite ore, but hardly ever get 7 but happens now and then

Kommentar von 122037

35 minute parse.

11 stacks of saronite = 220 ore
1 stack of titanium = 20 ore
4 blue gems = red,purple,blue,yellow
12 eternals = 4shadow 4 earth 1 water
14 Green gems..

All of the above was attained in 35 minutes in Scholo... very good spot imo... next parse will be icecrown

Kommentar von 249975

You ever get that, "you can't do that because you are mounted." warning while you are trying to mine a node? The sit key (default 'x') will make you fly straight down, opposite to jump which makes you fly straight up. So if you fly next to a node and hold x you will land next to it allowing you to mine.

I know it's made my mining easier.

Kommentar von 329758

To all you likely also disappointed 60 twinks
Saronite deposits also require level 65 to mine.
So, back to the adamantium/khorium grind for us.

Kommentar von LabGecko

As of 2022 the saronite data here for Icecrown is horribly wrong. Saronite is everywhere around Icecrown.
