I am currently getting a great drop rate from the Sky Shadow's in Deadwind Pass.

Not only that but they drop at least 4 items per kill, including valuable items such as Giant Eggs and Elegant Writing Tools which sell for 1g 71s 20c per 10 at vendors. Among other regular drops are Feathery Wings and Ironfeathers, which amounts to quite a lot of gold overall.

I highly recommend farming here as they respawn very quickly ...

Hey! Any1 know what this feather is for?

Commento di Thottbot

the faire only comes once a month, for a week, the first week it sets up, and the second monday of that week it sets up i think... anywho, it switches between mulgore and Elwynn forest. the only problem with it is that higher lvls will be grinding lower lvl places for stuff like this to get tickets, so it will be annoying to try and be in the areas with mobs that drop these things because the lvl 60s will be killin everythin in sight =/

Commento di Thottbot

Actually, the 60's will primarily be grinding the Evil Bat Eyes. For each of the five animal parts you can turn in, the lowest options beome unavailable as your reputation with the fair increases. If 60's were relying on Soft Bushy Tails, for example, they'd find after turning in sixty or so that the quest option is no longer available.

Of course, with half of the professions offering their own quests with the fair, many players will find it unnecessary to hunt creatures. As a Tailor/Enchanter, however, I currently have no choice but to grind for grey drops...

I think the quickest way to get these with the lowest effort is in The Roguefeather Den in 1k Needles. They respawn in the cave almsost as fast as you can kill them, and you barely have to walk anywhere. The plumes drop about every 3rd one that I've noticed and the harpies are only lvl 28-30 so killing them is simple.

I'm farming in Feralas, the Northspring Harpies bear exp for me (lvl 51 Hunter) and they have a somewhat good drop rate. They can be found at the Ruins of Ravenwind, in the northern most part of Feralas.

Commento di Thottbot

These owls now have the best droprate, at 26%. They are found in northern Winterspring, and directly south of Everlook near the Moon cavern. The northern winterspring region is perfect if you're a tribal skinner, as mobs that can be skinned for chimera and warbear leather can be found in close proximity.

Commento di Thottbot

Best place to farm these:
AV , lol

as alliance farm them from the snowblind harpies -.-
and get some rep at the same time =)

Commento di Thottbot

Just to clarify. The best place to grind these if you just want them fast and dont care about reputation, experience, other drops, or skinning is BY FAR in Thousand Needles from the Screeching Roguefeather, Screeching Harpy and Screeching Windcaller. Even though other mobs have higher droprate these mobs go down so fast and spawn so quickly that I as a lvl 60 mage only waited a little for respawn.
I think I only spent 2-3 hours grinding these before I could not turn anymore in to the Faire.

If you want other things like drops, experience, leather or BG reputation while getting these, by all means get them somewhere else, but then its not REAL farming :)

And after these I would say that Glowing Scorpid Blood should be the next thing to farm (in Silithus). I never really liked killing bats in EPL for Evil Bat Eyes, the scorpions in Silithus are alot easier to farm IMO.

Commento di Thottbot

I think the drop rate on these have been lowered for Ironbeak Screechers. I fought 54 of these, with only 14 dropping. That's a 25.9% drop rate.

54 is kind of a small sample size, but I ran confidence intervals just in case. If my math is right, I'm 95% sure that the drop rate for Ironbeak Screechers is between 14.1% - 37.7%, while I'm 99% sure it's between 10.4% and 41.4%.

Commento di Thottbot

The Harpy Cave in Thousandneedles is a good place to get vibrantplumes it took me 25 min to get 10 of them

Commento di Thottbot

There's a treasure chest that spawns rather frequently while farming the harpies. It has mostly crap in it, but I found a silver bar as well as some other items that AH well.

Furthermore, while I was there, I seemed to get quite a few uncommon and one rare item; leastaways much more than I usually run across. Perhaps it was simply making up for my abysmal luck otherwise, but it was a few things that made it even more worth it farming for the plumes.

Commento di Thottbot

Im in the thousand needles den and ive got no idea what im doing wrong.
Lvl 60 hunter just plain slaughtering 10 of them a at a time (using pet to grab then aoe) one out of every 15 drops 1.
Even if i change how i kill and kill them slower (dismiss pet and melee them 1 vs 1)
the drop rate is still about 15-20= 1 vibrant plume.

Whats going on?

(EDIT : Was just an unlucky night. Came back 3 days later and they started dropping 1 plume to 9 kills. much better. Its still pretty slow and boring though, kick on some music and dream of the amulet.

Commento di Thottbot

What is the limit? How many will it let you turn in and for how much rep per turn in?

Commento di Thottbot

I looted 60 of these in 1 hour inside the cave in thousand needles, what I did was picking that test of endurance quest and just kept opening the boxes so waves and waves of harpies kept coming!

60 warrior ms build. ravencrest

Commento di Thottbot

Can anyone confirm this? Thott has the Ironbeak Screechers of northern Felwood listed at 44%. They are low 50 however, so there is a tradeoff in how fast you can take them down at level 60.

Commento di Thottbot

hunt the harpies in thousand needles is without a doubt the fastest way to get these feathers, trust me! they are level 26-28 and dies in two melee hits from me with TUF, 60 warrior ms build. btw doing the bats in epl probably isnt faster bcos whilst i quested there i killed alot of em and didnt find much eyes at all!

Commento di Thottbot

First a BIG THANKS to guys that posted the trick of the horde quest.

If you are horde get that quest :

https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/quest=1149/test-of-faith

Finish the 1st part, Test of Faith (very easy, just jump of the cliff) and then you will get the second part Test of Endurance.

That quest is inside the Harpies cave and now you can klick the boxes at the end of it. When you click one of the boxes, 3 waves of harpies come. Ofcourse I NEVER went to deliver the quest.

With my lvl 60 Mage I just stood there clicking the boxes wave after wave coming and AoE ftw.

I was killing hundrends of those in minutes.

Got enough Vibrant Plumes in 3-4 hours to finish up all the Plumes delivers (I started with ZERO (0) reputation with the Darkmoon Feiry),I had some Plumes sulprus too which were sold to AH for a decent price and made me a few gold.

Also I got numerous grennies and FIVE (5) Blues of 24-26 level. Do you believe that ? FIVE Blues (of low level but those was sold for 8-10g at my server AH very easily due to chinise farmers selling similar staff from 20-30g to 60-70g, if you add the grennies and TONS of Silk Cloth I got I have made about 100g that day).

My problem is now how do I go further than this. Tailoring/Enchanting no proffesions quests. And that bat eyes farming seems wayyyy too boring.

EDIT: The 4 out of 5 blues I got are : (It seems I cannot find the last one in thottbot, a mace or something)

I went to Winterspring to grind XP 8 Vibrant Plumes. I killed around 25 owls and got 7 of them, good enough, but the last one wasn't that easy to get... I actually had to kill 40 owls to get it >_<

Commento di Thottbot

i got 32 of them grinding 30-31

Commento di Thottbot

After patch 1.11 these feathers is not grey anymore, changed to white. About time! :)

Commento di Thottbot

It appears that Deadwind pass is the highest drop rate of them, though they are 55ish, but at about 30%, that's nice tickets.....

Commento di Thottbot

Cleared the entire roguefeather den and not a single one dropped. The drop rates may have been changed, usually I'd have 10 by now.

Edit: One finally dropped off the 40th harpy I killed. Either I'm unlucky or Blizz took a hammer to the drop rate on these.

Commento di Robbie

Vibrant Plumes are useful to players looking to earn some Darkmoon Faire Prize Tickets during the Darkmoon Faire.
The Darkmoon Faire can be found in either Goldshire in Elwynn Forest or Mulgore at the base of Thunder Bluff.

One of the most common locations to farm these are from Screeching Harpys and other similar harpy mobs in Thousand Needles. (Their cave can be found at 27,51.)

Commento di Allakhazam

I got one of this in TN dropped by a Screeching Roguefeather!.. what is this for exactly? :S

Commento di Allakhazam

The Roguefeather Den in Thousand Needles is a great place to farm these for whatever you want them for. You also get tons of Silk, Wool, coin and some greens. In the time it took me to loot 35 Vibrant Plumes I got 7 greens, 4 stacks of silk, 6 stacks of wool and about 65 Light Feathers.

Commento di Allakhazam

I've been killing a ton of the snowblind in AV, did they nerf the drop rate or anything? I haven't seen a single vibrant plume yet.

I'm level 54, neutral faction, any reason as to why they might not be dropping? I cleared my way too my banner and back out with not a single drop. I must have killed atleast 100 of the mobs.

Commento di Allakhazam

I could only hand in 80 of these at the Darkmoon fair yesterday instead of the before mentioned 125 until the quest becomes unavailable. Anyone knows why ? Hadn't handed in other stuff before ...

Commento di Allakhazam

Yes, I think it's been removed as a drop in AV - it was too good, reputation and tickets in the same time :((

Commento di Allakhazam

Yes, it's to bad they removed one reason for people like you to leech in a battleground.
There are tons of other places that it drops go grind there.

Commento di Allakhazam

I got a lot more off of Northspring Windcaller's in Feralas than anywhere else. I think the droprate on those is innaccurate

Commento di Allakhazam

I got 28 plumes while I was farming for mageweave cloth at the Ruins of Ravenwind in Feralas (killing the northspring slayers and such...)

I spent about an hour there and managed to get 110 mageweave, 28 vibrant plumes, 24 purple lotus, green pants, and a jewelcraft design...and some various other items, but I found it was worth it. :)

Commento di Allakhazam

just sell these to the vendor, don't bother the AH

Commento di Allakhazam

Save 5 and use them in a q at lvl 60

Commento di Allakhazam

what is this for? how much do they get on the ah? i got 3 and im only lvl 16 LAWLZ!

Commento di Gonny

These show as grey on Classic, Phase 1.

Commento di ZhaunRong

Just finished the Test of Endurance quest in 1000 Needles. L30 Feral DPS Tauren Druid. Cleared the harpies on the ground and in the cave - ended up with 4 vibrant plumes.

Commento di kmalisevich

In phase 3 SOD u can actualy turn this even after u reach friendly DM rep. Same for all tier 4 ticket items: Vibrant Plume, Big Black Mace, Mechanical Repair Kit and Turtle Scale Leggings.

Commento di priapus

You need to be level 30 (at least in classic) to see the DM Faire turn-in quest for these or else have someone over level 30 turn them in for you if you are trying to buy a storage box because it is BOE.
