Blizzard appearently hot-fixed these to now drop motes of water instead of motes of mana. Droprate seems to be the same though.

Commentaire de Flyv

On Feb 2 on Eitrigg I killed 28 eels. I got 9 Motes of Water, 0 Motes of Mana. I guess they patched it.

Commentaire de 12437

I killed these for about an hour today. In that time, I got 47 motes of water, and not a single mote of mana. So, if they still do drop them, it is not worth grinding them for it.

Commentaire de 19910

Farmed them two days ago and they dropped nothing but water, farming them today dropping nothing but mana...

Commentaire de 10105

in 30 minutes, i killed 73 eels, and recieved 20 motes of mana. these are very easily farmed as a fury warrior, i literally had NO downtime with my mushroom trinket. 85 eel kills netted me 30 motes total

Commentaire de Nienie

8:11pm -8:51pm Eastern - Motes of Water dropping. Looted 35 in 40 minutes. Pretty easy kills, though swimming around is annoying, even on an Undead.

Commentaire de 12437

Yeah, I reccomend the quest A Rare Bean out in Nagrand. It gives you a stack of cherries (20 of them) that let you breath underwater for a half an hour each. Makes this grind much better.

Commentaire de 5940

The only time dependant alternating drop I know of is the Sunscale Salmon and the Nightfin Snapper. The drop rates changed every 6 hours, from what I had observed.

12:00 AM - 6:00 AM = Just Nightfins
6:00 AM - 12:00 PM = Both
12:00 PM - 6:00 PM = Just Sunscales
6:00 PM - 12:00 AM = Both

If the motes these guys drop are time dependant, I'd bet that they are on a similar schedule as these fish.

Commentaire de 17690

In addition, for warlocks, this is a fantastic place to grind soul shards. The Eels go down fast, drop an easily sellable commodity (motes of water), is just a stone's throw from Shattrath, cater's to our underwater breathing spell, and is rarely overcrowded.

I'm not sure of the hitpoints on these guys either, but with a destro build, they die with Immo+Incinerate+1-2 secs of drain soul.

Commentaire de 17690

I'm still getting just Motes of Water. No mana. Farmed for 3 hours, 8pm to 11pm. Netted 3.5-4 primals per hour (with no competition as a 70 lock).

I prefer to swim South to North, eat/drink at the falls, and then fly back to the south end of the lake and do it again.

Commentaire de 13813

I farmed these for about an hour on Feb. 28th.
Got:
4.5 Primal Water
0 Primal Mana
~40G worth of grey stuff
6 Green items

Little competition, level 70 hunter.

Commentaire de 27210

Practically defenseless and cute. Who could resist?

I also only saw primal water, at about a 4/hr rate, grinding off and on between 7 and 8pm server time. It sounds like that's it here.

Commentaire de Stapler

I got 5 Primal Waters in about 50 minutes. Nice grinding for a warlock with dark pact, they die so fast you never have to rest plus you've got underwater breathing. Started out on my own, halfway more people came along but respawn rate is quite good.

Commentaire de Veok

Are these eels skinnable? Some eels are, others aren't, which makes for very confused leatherworkers.

Commentaire de 24572

Pretty decent for motes of water. Took me an hour and eight minutes to get 4 primal water. Stopped twice to mine (4 nodes in total). Never stopped aside from that.

Commentaire de 30936

After 300 kills in two hours, I can make a post here to tell you about my impressions.

Total items:
- 61g in trash
- 10 Greens or so
- 9 Primal Water and 2 Motes of Water.

The droprate of Mote of Water is 30%.

It is really worth farming there. It is not farmed at all (I saw two other people) and there's always fish to kill.
It is better than Elemental Plateau since you don't have to worry about opposite faction or to wait for monsters to spawn.

However, you must have something to breathe water. I used Nagrand Cherry (https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/item=24421) from a quest in Nagrand. If you already used all of these cherries or you deleted them, buy pots.

Primal Waters sell for 18g on my server. 61 + 18*9 = 223g in two hours, not counting greens (I disenchanted them so I don't know the price of each :p).

Good farming !

Dropped Essence of Water for me. 30 May 2007, 16:15, Tarren Mill EU.

Commentaire de 51520

i concur with everyone here, this place is great for mote of water farming. a warlock casted unending breath one me, for its duration 10mins, i got 9 motes of water a green dagger and some grey stuff.

Commentaire de Tilaro

I was farming these guys for Motes of Water last night. Couldnt have been there for more then 40 minutes. (3 casts of Underwater Breathing) and walked out with 4 Primals, about 3 greens, and 100+ greys that vendored 1g+ per stack. Never saw Motes of mana
(I think it was from maybe 7:30-8:10pm Game Time.)

-Level 70 Affliction Warlock.
-Never stopped for anything but to loot the kills, swam constantly casting CoA, Corruption, Siphon Life, and even in the crowded sections of they didnt last long enough to get more then 3 eels at a time.

Commentaire de 25547

I dunno if it's a recent thing, but I was farming for about half an hour and got 2 motes and a green. Not worth it for farming in my opinion, back to the muck spawns I go...

Commentaire de 71961

I have found these eels to be an excellent source of income. After farming several hundred of them and analyzing drop rates I have determined that each eel is worth roughly 80 silver on average. This may vary from server to server, but that is a rough average of what you can expect. Considering the speed which they can be killed, and their proximity to Shattrath, it makes them ideal for farming. If you plan on farming them for any extended period of time, I would suggest you invest in two items that will help maximize your income.

Azure Silk Belt - Increases swim speed by 15%
https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/item=7052
This item is trivial to craft and really helps you get around the lake.

Elixer of Wather Breathing - Allow water breathing for 30 minutes
https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/item=5996
These are sometimes a bit hard to come by, but they really help to maximize your kill speed since coming up for air will be one of your biggest time sinks.

It is also best to farm them while your faction has control of the spirit towers for the extra 5% damage boost. Happy farming!

Commentaire de 39079

too bad Blizzard nerfed the droprate :( used to get 5 primals an hour, now i get max 3..

Commentaire de 65162

Personally ( as of 8/1/2007 ), and Im sure some will agree, I think this is the fasted source of Motes of Water in outlands.

Reason:

At 70 these things are very easy to kill, sure their drop rate is only 18%, but you would be suprised how much that is when your killing one of these things every 15 seconds! I have tried so many places for Water Mote sources, Elemental Plataeu, Skettis, and that pond near Shattarath. Hated them all.

Came to the ring around Hala and circled it, everytime I came around the Water elementals were respawning, and as a 70 DPS warrior I was getting Motes of Water very fast.

Try it, see how you like it.

Commentaire de 24840

64 afflic lock, 32 motes in 30 minutes. was also a 70 hunter there farming too ><

this spot is awesome~

Commentaire de Shivacode

While these mobs have pathetic HP, they often drop Essence Of Water now as well as motes. So you're worse off farming these than Muck Spawns, which are all over Nagrand's lower areas.

Commentaire de 95858

3k hp each eel-good drop rate-elemental fragment every kill (2g+ a stack at vendor) good farm

Commentaire de 95917

Has the droprate been nerfed? I Killed 50 today and only got 3 mote of water.

Commentaire de moocow

Another thing to note if you're a Moonkin / Ele Shaman, is that these aren't immune to nature, unlike most water elementals.

In half an hour of grinding these, I killed 82 mobs, getting 19 motes, which fits pretty well with the listed droprate. You were unlucky, Callister :)

Commentaire de lcbagna

They have a good drop rate for their hp amount. You can kill them very fast and the respaw time is short so a non-stop farming will grant u like a primal every 10 minutes!

Commentaire de childofnewlight

30 minutes I had 3 primals and a bunch of stacks of the junk they drop. Sells to merchant for 2g each.

As a frost mage this was a MUCH better area than the Elemental Plat. Two frostbolts and a fire blast and they were dead. I'm a newer level 70 with decent gear for having turned 70 a week or so ago but nothing spectacular.

A tip, give the eel two hits and then let them get almost in your face before giving the finishing kill. Avoids having to do extra swimming to pick up the drops.

A hunter was also in the water with me farming them. I tried going in the opposite direction and there seemed to be plenty spawns for us both. We rarely got in each others way.

The downside is no crystals for Halaa Research Tokens. However, consistant 3 (2 if I crit) hit kills compared to 7 or 8. As well as only two or three stops to get out of water for mana (as compared to almost every fight in Nagrand) out weighs the one con.

Also, its right outside Shattrath. So its easy to go back and forth as needed. Takes maybe 2-3 minutes on an epic ground mount to get to the lake. If that.

Commentaire de 111097

Today, around 10:30 CST on Kirin Tor, I farmed about 20 of these without a single mote of water dropping. I'm level 61 Forsaken Warlock.

Commentaire de 110227

Wow! Did the quest "Rather be fishin" and got primal water in here. Great place to farm primal waters!

Commentaire de 99360

I love farming these. Discounting the motes of water, after around 30 minutes of farming ive made 15-20g in greys alone. I'm a level 66 shadow priest and I can almost kill these with a single SW:P. I usually just shield up, then swim buy and Vampiric Touch + SW:P all of the mobs I see, which is about 7 or 8 before I run out of mana.

Commentaire de 111351

Albeit what can be a mediocre drop rate on Motes of Water, due to this mob's low health, even if you are unfortunate with the drop rate, you are still able to mass farm Elemental Fragments/Primordial Essence. If you aren't undead, I would suggest taking Elixir of Greater Water Breathing along with you to farm so that you can farm as many mobs as possible and only have to stop to health/mana up instead of resurfacing constantly.

For all the frost mages out there who needs Primal Waters, these are your best friend. If you can, get your hands on an Azure Silk Belt beforehand. Also stock up on Elixirs of Greater Water Breathing to alleviate farming. Put up Ice Barrier, and Ice Lance every Eel you come across. Use Rank 1 Arcane Explosion to keep them agro'd, and pull about half the lake. Pop Ice Block, frost nova, trinket, Ice Barrier, AoE down (but not with Blizzard.) I farmed 2 Primal Waters in a matter of 10 minutes doing this.

Commentaire de 95917

I was very unlucky today. The drop was terrible. I had 7 mote of water and thought, ok ill get 3 more for a primal. I had to kill 60 of them to get the final 3 motes.
Terrible.

Commentaire de 96236

If water breathing is yr biggest problem just grab a Noggenfogger Elixir https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/item=8529 and get yr self in skelly form ;)

Commentaire de 122122

Alright, after an hour of farming (or 131 kills), I have the following items (from playing a level 63 Beast Mastery Hunter):

Vendor Trash (gray): 112x, 19x, 1x, 1x, 1x (This all equals out to 19g, 79s, 5c)
Common (white): 46x (Avg. AH Price - 2g/ea)
Uncommon (green): 1x, 1x, 1x, 1x, 2x
Rare (blue): 1x

I prefer grinding in this area if you're trying to get gold, I've gotten two blues (from my two hours of grinding, so far), a ton of greens, vendor trash, and motes of water, and I never run out of mana killing these (I do two Steady Shots per battle), and the spawn rate is crazy. If you ever run out of food, mainly for Well Fed, just kill the Basilisks next to you for , you can cook it up into . The only downside that I see from this is you need to get underwater breathing so you don't have to come up every minute, which is a big waste of time. To counter this, I just pop on a and grab a few s if I can, that way I get around the lake quicker.

On my server I've never seen more than one person here, so it seems like there's not much competition.

!!! EDIT: I highly recommend turning your s into s. All of my Primal Mights sold, but the motes of water from the night before have not sold but two.

Commentaire de 139584

i farmed for 30 last night and only got 12 motes. lvl 61 warrior (prot/DPS spec). must be bad luck.

Commentaire de 121630

With lvl 70 sl/sl warlock, I got in 35-45mins 40 motes of water, 2 Essence of waters, 1 pair of green plate pants that can be sold to vendor for 4g(maybe a bit more in AH) and other vendor thrash worth about 16g 25s. First I was alone, then in the end, there were 2 other guys+me. Not a big rush, I didn't have to wait for respawns at all.

Commentaire de 173264

i farmed for 3 days ( from 2-3 hours each ) and got the following

232 motes of water ( sold each primal for 29,95g " dont try to sell motes coz they take longer to sell if not sold entirly ")
37 green equips
19 essence of water
75g worth of vendor-trash

i was a lvl 64 bm hunter , used the following while farming :

aspect of the viper ( gave me no downtime at all , i was killing those eels every 20sec's

15% speed increase
https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/item=7052
and
underwater breathing
https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/item=9452
( this staff took me 14 tries to get from that boss , really annoyed the crap out of me )

during those times i saw alot of lvl 70 players famring alongside me , and a few that were around my lvl , i actually went there becoz i wanted to grind for exp since they have low hp and could be killed fast

be careful though , thier respawn rate is crazy and they get respawned at the same time with high numbers , its nice since you will keep hitting away quite fast but if ur not careful u might die ( for me i didnt die once but i saw many players get pwned by 3-4 eels respawning at thier heads ,lol )

Commentaire de Evilblobs

Farmed them for 20 minutes, got about twice as much gold from gray loot then i did from the measly 3 motes i looted.

So while i cant confirm it, it does appear the drop rate has lowered in 2.4.3

Commentaire de 205906

Guys this is free xp/mote.
They only got -- 3k health, i like 3 hit them with my lvl 62 shaman!
Thanks blizz!

Commentaire de LurkerPatrol

Just thought I would add my statistics to the rest of the lot here.

I noticed this was a great farming place when I did the relevant quest for it. Anyways, here are the details:

Level 66 Hunter, Marksman spec, Echeyakee with dash for pet.

Timer: Nagrand Cherry - Underwater breathing for 30 minutes.

For 1 run using the cherry as a timer, I obtained:

21 motes of water (so 2.1 primals)
15g 62s in vendor trash
1 essence of water

Commentaire de Thottbot

These eels seemed to have stopped dropping motes of mana and started dropping motes of water.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Images:
Mote of Mana dropping, 2/04
Mote of Water dropping, 2/04

Seems like a lot of people reporting that Mote of Mana no longer drops from the eels are basing that off of completing the Rather Be Fishin' quest. Or, more accurately, about 20 kills. Anyone who's a high enough level to kill these should be familiar with how frustrating probability can be in WoW, especially when dealing with such a low number of kills.

As a frost mage, this is one of the few (only?) places I can farm Primal Water for the Frozen Shadoweave set. I don't have an exact number, but based on my XP gain I've killed well over 1,000. Not a huge amount, but enough for me to be able to say that Mote of Mana still drops from them :)

It is entirely possible, however, that the droprate was reduced significantly to reflect their level (as opposed to the level 67+'s that drop them). I've found about four times as many Mote of Water as Mana.

Commentaire de Thottbot

When I first started farming these, I was happy because they ONLY were dropping motes of mana. (40 manas, no waters)

Then the next day (and for about a week) they dropped ONLY motes of water. (about 30 waters, no mana)

I go back there 2 days ago and they are ONLY dropping motes of mana again (23 manas, no waters)

And of course yesterday, they are only dropping waters. (15 waters, no mana).

Is there some quest someones doing that changes these? Or is it a night/day thing? Some in game event that is changing these?

Commentaire de Thottbot

There is something fishy about these fishes..

I am a warlock, currently lvl 66 with the build 24 / 31 (aprox), When i sacrefice my voidwalker i litteraly out regenerate these babys hp wise vs dmg.

These things are 3 times easyer to kill than a normal mob and that is not all. They do nearly no dmg at all.

Here comes the unbalanced part, they all drop motes of water 1 - 3 on every fifth fish. On my server a primal water sells for 30g, so if i can get 100 primal waters i am then 3000g richer and 3000g closer to epic flying mount.

BUT THAT IS NOT ALL! The trash that they drop easly sell for 20g after an hour of grinding + they drop a lot of greenies (as for my encounter i always get around 4 green items after a solid grinding periode of 2 - 3h). Its insane..

I once caught myself doing 213g per hour (titan panel stated that) while farming these..

My word to you; Farm these before blizzard nerfs them, they obviously forgot that these fishes have no hp and deal no dmg (for a warlock like myself i like to curse 10 fishes and continue.. i dont need a break, they deal no damage)..

Regards wallrock of deathwing (eu)

Commentaire de Thottbot

Grinded em today and yesterday.. was doing about 80-120g / hour.. (as a mage, so no dots :/)
arc blast arc blast, wand a few times, they die..
molten armor ftw btw.

Managed to farm enough for my epic mount (had 10g :x now i have about 200g remaining after buying the skill + epic mount)

Farmed like 3 hours today..
drop rate fluxuates.. but still.. gets me my money :)

Commentaire de Thottbot

ive found the drop rate to be more round the area of 10-20%

Some times you get 2 or 3 motes tho so its not too bad

Commentaire de Thottbot

Unless the drop rate is worse than 1/1000 or I'm really, REALLY unlucky (1000+ kills), these no longer drop mana. The drop rate on water has been nerfed to about 10 percent, I got a little less than that.

Commentaire de Thottbot

I've been farming these for awhile but today nothing is dropping. I've gotten about 3 motes in 50 kills. Anyone else notice this?

Commentaire de Thottbot

While I didn't get any motes of mana the water motes seem to drop well, out of about 60 kills I got 20 motes.

Commentaire de Thottbot

I tried it out today by killing 100
27 motes of water
4 essence of water
2 green item drops

Most motes of water I got came in clumps of two and would sometimes get 2-3 drops in a row so there was alot more killing between drops but in the end came to roughly the same drop rate which i usually get

Commentaire de Thottbot

I'm not sure if Blizzard made another change, but I was there for over an hour yesterday and none of the eels dropped any motes at all.

Commentaire de Thottbot

how well do essences of water drop?

Commentaire de Thottbot

motes of water seems nerfed as of todays patch

Commentaire de Thottbot

lol can twinks get this fishing pole? every thought of that? its like amazing.. im acually going to use this while tanking! soemone tell me if its possible for a twink to get it

Commentaire de Thottbot

i mean the eel quest from the seth guy the fishing pole you get... im in the wrong section for the question tho lol

Commentaire de Thottbot

These eels have very good drop rate of mote of water (33-35%). They are lvl 63 and have only 3200 hp!, haven't any special attack, only melee you (to my 68 lock they hit for 120).

Commentaire de Thottbot

are these guys in the water or on land?
do u think i could farm these for my lvl 60 epic mount? im a 59 rogue btw

yanman - blackwing lair-

Commentaire de Thottbot

wow, omfg.i have killed 120 of these eels, i have only gotten 12 motes, it is deffently not a 20% drop rate, im about to $%^&ing pull out all my hair

Commentaire de Thottbot

about 30 kills. 17 water motes. 5 greens. 1 blue. NO mana

Commentaire de Thottbot

I wish i got that many warter motes per kill , about 30 kills 7 motes. lol thats all

Commentaire de Thottbot

I killed 35 and got 1 mote. Has the drop rate been nerfed?

Edit: Seems to run cold at the start. I had a stack of elemental fragments before I got a single mote, but after about 200 kills I had over 50. And every time I go there I get nothing for the first ten or twenty kills.

Commentaire de Thottbot

just killed them for 3 hours - I average 28 motes an hour.

and that's with no competition and me being able to 2 shot them.

I run into some bad streaks there, though - went 17 mins of constant killing with ZERO motes the other day.

I get the same drop rate in Nagrand around Halaa, but those mobs are 3-4 levels higher and spam annoying poison, but at least they're near Ogres that I kill for Netherweave for a change of pace.

farming motes is no fun at all; and I dread having to do it every freaking day.

Commentaire de Thottbot

did 45minutes there and got:
3xPrimal Water
2xgreens
6xgrey gear (2g/each)
100xelemental fragment
20xprimordial essence
3xessence of water

all this as a subtlety rogue, drank a 1h underwater breathing potion, and off i go. did around 30g on greys

Commentaire de Thottbot

as a Afflic/shadowburn lock was fairly ez to pull as many as i want, spam 3 instant spells life tap and drain life one while others would die off pretty fast. as for drops i farmed for about 50 min and got 3 Primal Waters
2 Greens
60 Shards
11 Essences
few grays
wasnt that bad but being a shadowcloth tailor it would take some time to get all the primal waters for Frozen Shadoweave set from these guys

Commentaire de Thottbot

These things spawn fast and there's a ton up at any given time so about three people can farm these without bumping into each other too much.

After farming for about half an hour, I had:

2 primals
1 green
9g worth of vendor trash.

So I would say the drop rate for the motes is pretty good. And they seemed to most often drop two at a time.

Hope this helps!

Commentaire de Thottbot

destro lock with mid kara gear, farming is a real lolfest in these waters...
most of the time: shadowbolt, drain soul, crit +300 or so hp from soul leech, 1300 or so mana per mob from imp drain soul...
or maybe 2 shadowbolts, but still makes it the most mana efficient farming place...
wierd to think you gain hp and mana while farming continously

oh and the drops are quite nice...i average around 40 or so motes per hour of farming ^^

Commentaire de Thottbot

i will forever love blizzard for those farming thing!
there are a lot and they are so easy to kill.
in one hour i can farm (as 62 full frost mage) 4 primal water, about 10-15g of junk and some green for others 10-15g (it depends of the greens). in my server the primal water goes for about 15g, so in one hour you can do easy 80g....
not bad for a 62...
i have done my whole frozen shadoweave set thanks to those stupid fishes.
i use a elixir of greater water breathing for one hour, and i go in zangarmarsh at the little fall. here i jump down and i start to gring till the end of the lake. here i get my mount and i go back in zangarmarsh...in thise time all this mob respawns and you can continue all the time you want....
ofc i have to clean off all the nasty allys that quests here....

Commentaire de Thottbot

im a lvl 70 warrior on Darkmoon Faire.
i got 8 epics.
all points in arms.
ive spent alot of time farming in this lake (about 2 weeks worth)
ive noticed that on average i got around 40 motes an hour. (which is 80g/hour)
im pretty sure its the best place (apart from elemental plateau) to farm motes. due to the low lvls and low dmg recieved.

Commentaire de Thottbot

When you think about the droprates..if they've gone down/up, then grind atleast 1000 of these before you make a statement please.

Now to the good stuff.
0.1185g 81%droprate Elemental Fragment
0.1325g 19%droprate Primordial Essence
2.0000g 26%droprate Mote of Water

these are the highest droprates...so, what could we get when we kill 100 of these?
0.1185g*81= 9.5985g(@vendor)
0.1325g*19= 2.5175g(@vendor)
2.0000g*26=52.0000g(@AH)
Thats 64g 11s 60c from 100 kills

These little guys have 3250hp average, thats 325 000hp.
Thats 1.9728copper per hp, lets say 2 copper per hp since it will drop more then just these t
hings.

So..whats you're dps? how much will you make in an hour? :)
Lets say you can chop of 200hp per sec, thats roughly 4s per second..2g 40s per min...144g per hour.

I searched www.wowhead.com/wotlk for grey drops, that stacks in 20, and is worth more then 10s. These mobs are among the few who drop em at 80%droprate. The mote of water is probably the main reason to grind em, but hey..dont throw away those greys.

If my calculations are wrong, bare with me, I've worked all night, and I'm about to go to bed. :) happy grinding to all.

EDIT: I have now tried it out, grinded for an hour, to see how the outcome would be.

247 kills, 1 hour, 68233xp, warlock lvl69 affliction, mobs lvl62-63, 193g earned.
(31%)76 Mote of Water(worth 2g each on my server)
(77%)191 Elemental Fragment
(23%)56 Primordial Essence
7 grey armors
2 green armors(vendor trash)
1 grey weapon
1 eternuim lockbox(sadly only 1g of vendor trash in it)
1 essence of water

I was probably lucky with the motes, or it was a good call to grind em at 4 at night. I was all alone, and I could kill non-stop.

If we backtrack this, we find my average dps that hour. 182g is what I earned from the top 3 drops. This amounts to 252.5dps. I'm fairly satisfied with this grind. I will probably do it more. :)

..on a funny little side note, they dont drop Elemental Fragment + Primordial Essence from one mob. Each mob drop 100% sure one of em, so its 100% sure to get 11s 85c or more from each mob. If I had been max unlucky, my grind would have resulted in 29g 26s 95c that hour. Thats with zero motes, and zero extra drops. 30g/hour worse case scenario. :)

Edit2: I tried it again, this time with Azure Silk Belt(+15%swimming speed). I went from 247kill/h, to 295kill/h. Those extra 50 kills means alot more gold. So find a tailor, and get yourself one of those belts. :) Earned 244g in 1 hour(counting 1 mote of water as 2g), got 87 motes of water. Vendor trash alone gave me 70g.

I know its naiv of me to put all this out here thinking it wont get nerfed by blizz..but its been around for so long..why would they nerf it now..? ;) Anyways..if more and more grind mote of water, the prices will slide, and there is no need to nerf..but hey 70g from vendortrash alone is very good ;)

Sorry for the wall of text this has become, but I felt the need to mention one more thing, not sure if I mentioned it. I'm an affliction warlock, I can grind non-stop, without drinking or eating(I think I might have bandaged once during the one hour). Did this as lvl69, never tried it as lvl70, but I bet it would be abit easier. Faster then doing dailies too I guess. :)

1 Hour, 200 Kills - Rogue

x5 Primal Water Sold for 25G Each - 125G
x5 Essence of Water - Sold for 2G Each - 10G
x2 Greens - Sold for 7G Each - 14G
Vendor Trash - 30G

Had the place to myself, pretty much continual killing, other than the enevitible swimming. Didn't have a "Azure Belt", no doubt if I did, the outcome of kills/Primal Waters would be different.

Did another hour, Had the place to myself yet again.

x5 Primal Waters
x4 Essence of Waters
x6 Greens

So, I just did my own little survey.

Had the lake to myself, 100 kills.

AH:
Primal Water x 2* - 49g 98s
Green items x 2 - 14g 50s
Essence of water x 1 - 89s

All AH items were priced at the same price as the lowest price for the same item currently on the AH at the time. I'm a Horde on the Azjol-Nerub realm.

Vendor trash:
Primordial Essence x 20 - 2g 65s
Elemental Fragment x 80 - 9g 48s
Grey items x 2 - 94s 73c

Repairs - 59s 34c

So, if everything sells first time & not counting AH fees, I make it 77g 85s 39c for about an hours work.

* I actually got 19 x Mote of Water in the 100 kills, but carried on to get the last one to make it to a round 20. It dropped on the 103rd kill. The 3 Primordial Essence that the extra 3 dropped weren't counted.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

4 primal waters in one hour, as a lvl 64 ice mage. they die in only 3 frostbolt...

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Definitely the best place for farm for motes of water. As as 70 rogue, I farmed 8 motes in (literally) 5 minutes =)) Cheap Shot, Mutilate, Evis, and 1 dead eel ;p

Commentaire de Allakhazam

same prob, farmed them sometimes for last time was yesterday .... but today i only get :(

These mobs are involved in:

Rather Be Fishin' http://wow.allakhazam.com/db/quest.html?source=live;wquest=10037&locale=enUS

Commentaire de Allakhazam

They now drop essence of water

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Same here - 10 minutes farming equaled 8 motes of water.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I think you only get Motes of mana at a certain time during the day because ive killed 100 of these things for my transmute quest and all they dropepd was motes of water

Commentaire de combatboots7

Can we normalize grouping up to kill these guys? There's a quest to kill these guys, and the drop rate is not that great to begin with. What should only have taken ~10-20 min, took me over 2 hours to do during a low traffic time on my realm. And no one would accept my invites.
