Y'a un peu d'or à se faire avec les granules qui permettent de créer des composants primordiaux rares, parce que le farm est assez long et les composants primordiaux sont utiles voire indispensables pour up les métiers de l'Outreterre. Par ailleurs même si c'est long ce n'est pas si désagréable car il y a moyen de faire des choses à côté.

Je dirai que pour l'Eau, l'Air et le Feu, le plus simple, c'est d'aller au nord du trône des éléments en Nagrand, et de tuer à la chaîne les élémentaires d'Eau, d'Air et de Feu.

Pour la Terre et l'Ombre, ça se fait assez bien en Nagrand également, mais il faut aller au niveau d'Oshu'gun, tout au Sud. Les Rejetons du Vide forment un cercle autour d'Oshu'gun donc on farm assez rapidement sans perdre de temps à faire demi-tour, pour les élémentaires de terre c'est un peu plus à l'extérieur mais ça se suit assez bien également (mais il faut vraiment avoir une monture volante car souvent ils sont sur des zones un peu escarpées).

L'avantage de les farmer en Nagrand c'est qu'on peut par la même occasion récupérer des échantillons de poudre de cristal d'Oshu'Gun (qui sont échangeables facilement contre quelques PO, des recettes, un sac 18 emplacements). Et éventuellement pour les dépeceurs, il y a le cuir de sabot-fourchu épais qui ne se trouve que dans cette région et non loin des Rejetons du Vide.

Pour les granules de mana, par contre, impossible de le faire en Nagrand, mais c'est très pratique de les faire dans les Tranchantes sur les Raies de l'éther car farmer les raies permet de farmer les très utiles éclats apogides (qui permettent entre autres de faire apparaître des mobs lootant des dessins de joaillerie rares et très utiles). Et je ne parle pas des cuirs assez rares qui se trouvent là et qui ont une bonne valeur.

As of 1-26-07 Lagoon Eels no longer drop Motes of Mana, they now drop Motes of Water.

'Tis a pity.

Commentaire de Rylon

have any one even found one of these gas clouds yet? i have been farming life and shadow gas clouds but i have never even seen one of the mana clouds

Commentaire de 17690

As of Jan 29, 2006 - The Shimmerscale Eels are no longer dropping Mote of Mana, and are now dropping Mote of Water instead.

Mana Wraiths near Area 52 have a pretty good drop rate compared to anything else I've farmed.

These tend to drop motes of mana pretty well. i was farming for about an hour and i got 3 primals (30motes) and another 5 motes. the only thing i suggest doing to save time is try to avoid the other earth elemental things that are around them. this can easily be done if u are lvl 70 and have ur flying mount.

Best mobs to farm these (and spot) is

http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=18866
http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=18867

The trick is to kill them fast (under 10sec seems to be about right). If you don't the mageslayers will use spellreflect and the mana seeker will use mana burn.

If you kill them fast enough as a caster they wont do anything! (they have about 5200hp each)

One hour = 70-100 motes for me (i need 6-10sec for one mob 0/21/40 wl)

Commentaire de 18690

I've been farming mana wraiths as a 66 destro lock with my felhunter as a pet. You can usually nuke him down to about 30% or so before he does his mana burn ability but a well timed silence/counterspell will do the trick on these guys.

Their drop rates on these motes is really streaky. I'll go 20 minutes w/o seeing one and then the next 20 getting 16 motes. But keep at it, these are very easy to kill.

I'll lvl up a bit more and start hitting the mageslayers next.

Commentaire de Nietchze

Wish I woulda read this earlier. Spent the last 45 min farming eels and got 11 Mote of Water & no Mana. . . reading ftw! :(

Commentaire de 24102

35.58 in Netherstorm is a good place to grind these things.

Commentaire de 24057

55, 89 is probably the best place to farm, insanely fast respawn, caster mobs, die very fast.

Commentaire de 28655

I farmed void monstrosity in netherstorm for 3 hours ended up with 80 motes very good drop rate and consistent. There weren't many people grinding this area either ,but the mobs are plentiful and spread out over a large area and 2 people could work this area and not have any real downtime. I also got some greens and a blue and a singing crystal axe :) which sold for a nice chuck of G's.

Commentaire de freakish87

Warp Monstrosities on the edge of the land West of Stormspire tend to drop mote of mana at a fairly good rate. The only snag is that the mobs are quite densely packed in with some earth elemental types called Sundered Thunderers, have to keep double checking behind me, and kiting the warps around to avoid aggroing 2 mobs at once :)

Commentaire de aasartor

If you're a skinner who needs Motes of Mana, a good mob to farm is the "Phase Hunter" in Netherstorm. They are skinnable and drop Mote of Mana at a reasonable rate.

Commentaire de 38680

I made a quick outline of where all the best places to farm motes are. Very useful if, like me, you are farming many of them for a recipe of some sort.

Layout:
(Zone) NPC name - Coordinates - % drop rate - link to page at Wohead

Mote of Air:
(Nagrand) Storming Wind-Ripper - 69.21 (Throne of Elements) - 33.9% - http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=22310

Mote of Fire:
(Nagrand) Raging Fire-Soul - 69.21 (Throne of Elements) - 34.1 - http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=22311

Mote of Water:
(Terokkar Forest) Crashing Wave-Spirit - 63.17 (North-Western Throne of Elements) - 33.7 - http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=22309

Mote of Earth:
(Blade's Edge Mountains) Sundered Rumbler - (Basically above and all below Area 52) - 18.8 - http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=18881

Mote of Mana:
(Netherstorm) Mana Wraith - 36.60 and 31.73 (Anywhere above Area 52 and more below. While you're at it, kill the Nether Rays as well, they have just as good of a chance to drop and are mostly in the same area) - 25.8 - http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=18864

Mote of Life:
(Zangarmarsh) I didn't find any specific place to farm for these because the zone is just rich with them. But I would suggest farming the Bogg/ Starving Bogg Lords and Fungal /Starving Fungal Giants because they are all very close. - The Spawning Glen (SW Zangarmarsh) and East of there is the Quagg Ridge - Very similar drop rates on all 4 mobs that I pointed out, 18.2 to 18.8 - http://www.wowhead.com/?item=22575#00Rmz

Mote of Shadow:
By far the most commonly found mote. This is dropped in almost every zone and can be easily farmed anywhere. But there may be a few exceptional areas just because npcs that drop them are close together, non-elite, and easy to kill. Here's one spot in a few that are exceptional:
(Nagrand) Voidspawn - Again, no specific coords, but all around Oshu'Gun, the bigass crystal SW Nagrand. - 18.4 - http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=17981

Commentaire de 34587

As an arms warrior the mageslayers were piece of cake, really good spawning time, a lot of mobs on the same place, paradise for a warrior.

Commentaire de 37108

I've found the Mana Snappers to be best for speed and abundance

Commentaire de 68347

Since Motes have a use function, you can drag them to your Action Bar to easily track how many you got while farming.

Commentaire de 20417

by FAR the easiest place to get these is in Wizard Row in Kirin'Var Village, SouthEast Netherstorm. Kill Mana Seekers and MageSlayers. I got 3 Primals in 20 minutes... WHY, oh, why, can't fires be this easy to get? Blizzard needs to make some changes, considering how NECESSARY Primal Fires are in just about everything...

Commentaire de Jolie

As a mage i found the best place to farm Motes of Mana was from the Phase Hunters, just outside Eco-Dome Midrealm.
They're well spaced out and not immune to any spells.
Good respawn rate too.

Commentaire de bluediemond

warp chasers do not drop mote of mana

Commentaire de Zemthion

Thanks for the hints guys ifound that the mana seekers and mageslayers drop the motes of mana most often thanks.

Commentaire de 33630

I found that farming them at the south-east corner of shadowmoon valley has very good drop rates. The mobs there do minimal damage, and it is really rare to find another grinder. You need a flying mount to reach the summit though.

Commentaire de 101058_

I've always stuck with this guy:

http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=18879

The sheer volume, respawn rate, and ability to skin them makes them great. And they're stupidly easy to kill. But I think they hate casters.They have a mana burn or something. I usually farm them on my feral druid for my lock.

Quite frankly they're so easy to farm that I don't understand why primal mana is so expensive. Just laziness?

Commentaire de 110307

The warp monstrosities - http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=20516 - in northwestern Netherstorm are very good to farm for motes of mana. I just got 30 in less than an hour. The plus to these is they're not as popular as the other spots in Netherstorm. They also have a very good droprate. I went to farm two other spots in Netherstorm and it was a little crowded and then came to the monstrosities and was the only one there.

The only setback to the warp monstrosities is that they are a little densely packed and there are just as many rock elementals in the same spot as they are. However, if you are smart about it you won't have to fret. I only aggroed a rock elemental once, and I got a mote of earth out of it!

Commentaire de 102766

you can buy these motes from an NPC from stormspire in Netherstorm.... all motes are there.........

Commentaire de 117034

Phase wyrm's are great for farming these. Fast respawn rate, very low competition, and no other mobs while "out of phase". I get usually 5 motes just while doing my daily (avoiding the wyrms as much as possible).

Commentaire de poobah

Best spot to farm is in Netherstrom, near Area 52 if u kill mana bonars and wrenchcokes u will pwn with umbar str.

Commentaire de 145774

wtb primal mana :P

Commentaire de 220966

After grinding Mana Seekers and Magekillers for 60 min as a feral druid i did end up whit 192 kills and 85 mote of mana.

Commentaire de 227087

I farmed 40 of them in Netherstorm in an hour. The drop rate seems to fluctuate; sometimes I got 10 motes in a row, sometimes I went through 10 mobs without getting any.

Commentaire de AlienFanatic

Another fantastic spot to farm thes is from the Phase Wyrms (http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=24917) in Blade's Edge mountains. To see them, you have to go to Bash'ir landing and become phased. It's part of the Shattered Sun Offensive quest called Maintaining the Sunwell Portal (http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=11514).

While phased, you have a vast number of them and they drop both motes and apexis shards. No mana burn or nasty effects. The only stipulation is that you must be at least level 70.

Good Luck!

Commentaire de 457526

At 33, 77 in netherstorm i farmed 40 motes of mana off of Warp Aberations...it was awesome!

Commentaire de 505528

I found Motes of Mana off of Warp Monstrosities and Motes of Earth off Sundered Thunderers, mobs are together all over Netherstorm.

Commentaire de insaneblade

i find the mana wraths outside the hold to drop them Every 2-3Kills in an hour i farmed 11 primals not to bad as theres alot

Commentaire de xxxstonie

Carefull !
You can turn 10 (9) Motes of Mana into 1 Primal Mana.
BUT You CANNOT Turn 1 Primal Mana into 10(9) Motes of Mana !

Commentaire de TheHandOfSeth

Absolutely cold not agree enough about the Mana Wraiths. They spawn quickly, are very easy to kill, and are arranged quite nicely for ranged farming. If you're an enhancement shaman (my personal choice), these are easily farmed by using Maelstrom'd lightning bolts to pull and then you can tear them to pieces in seconds in melee. It's great to setup your totems in a central location and pull 3-5 of them in quick succession. In this fashion, I easily farmed four primals worth in under twenty minutes.

Commentaire de 829815

Another vote for the Mana Wraiths for farming Mote of Mana.

I needed a Primal Mana (for an affordable Primal Might...), and went farming in Netherstorm after reading the comments about the drop from Mana Wraiths. I was not disappointed...

I found a whole "herd" of them between Ruins of Enkaat and Eco-Dome Midrealm, and just went crazy with my lvl 74 prot-pally. After all the mayhem, I found myself with:

36 Motes of Mana, and 2 greens, farmed from 50 Wraiths. Technically a a 72% drop rate, however many Wraiths drop 2 motes so this is probably a little off. Still, very nice for about 20 minutes of farming!

I also tried my luck with the local Phase Hunters, but after killing 15 I only found 1 Mote of Mana. They may be skinnable, but I still stick with the Mana Wraiths for some quick results.

Commentaire de Crosshairs

As of 8/7/2011 wizards terrace no longer has mana wraiths. However the Crumbling Wastes, and Ruins of Enkhat have plenty along with phase hunters and nether rays. 4 primal mana worth in about 40 mins. drop rates are consistent with WOWHead. North and Northwest of Area 52 for your mote of mana needs.

Commentaire de erikvduyn

If you have the option, pay Karazhan a visit. More specifically, the area where you fight The Curator. When I solo'd Karazhan, after fighting The Curator and all the trash in his room, I had 5 Primal Mana sitting comfortably in my bags.

Commentaire de Kiliya

In Shatt, Exarch Nasuun gives the quest "Maintaining the Sunwell Portal" where you have to get a phase device out in Blades Edge Mtns. While phased, the creatures drop a good bit. Even some while out of phase. I found this to be a nice, easy alternative. The quest is a daily for the Shattered Sun Offensive. (70+)

Commentaire de Rforn

Aether Ray in blades edge seem to have a decent drop rate

Commentaire de wowkardy

Im killing Mana Wraiths arround ruins of Enkaat , there are many of them there so its easy =)

Commentaire de DELcastis

One run solo through Karazhan netted me 11 primal mana's in around an hour and a half. You get them mostly from the mana wyrms halfway through the raid.

Commentaire de Fhoulan

If you're an engineer, using the mote extractor on gas clouds (Arcane Vortex) in Netherstorm can yield a good amount of primals, as long as you have a 280+ flyer. It took me about a half hour to make one full circuit of the zone, and at the end I had just over five primals. Each "land mass" in the zone had two clouds at a time on average. There are no clouds on the small nw island, none around tempest keep, and (as one might expect) none will be located in the eco domes. I only have a 280 flyer on my engineer, but with the amount I collected in the time I was there, you should be able to get about 10/hour using this method (unless the clouds take longer to respawn.

Side note - aside from the clouds appearing on the minimap, you will know when one is in the area because the nearby mobs will have a "twinkling" effect on them (similar to characters affected by shaman totems).

Commentaire de Barleduq

I know that a miner can turn Primal Earth and Primal Fire into motes of earth and fire, respectively. Is there any way to turn Primal Mana into Motes of Mana? Trying to consolidate my bag/bank space, but don't want to lose mats...

Thanks

Commentaire de dillybar

Honestly, for hunters, the Aether Ray's in the Ogri'La area of Vortex Summit (29,65) are the best bet. Hunters can hit the ones flying further overhead and using Track Beasts can show you exactly where they are at all times, because they are not aggro and appear as yellow dots. I farmed out 80 of these (for 8 Primal Mana) and it was much faster than anywhere else.

Commentaire de 962691

if you need these, just take an 85 into Kharazan. A decent ways in (including and just before the Guardian's Library) there are heaps.

Commentaire de 1057593

Best place to farm these is in southeastern Netherstorm. Kirin'var Village

Commentaire de igorhgf

A quick tip: don't farm Mana Wraith with an Arcane Mage. Those mobs are still immune to arcane damage.

Commentaire de Madr

tl;dr the most rewarding way to farm items dropped by mobs is in a group. This may be in part due to personal loot changes in a recent BfA patch. Other farmers are potential group mates, they are not your "competition" unless they are from the opposing faction!

I went to Wizard Row in southern Netherstorm in Outland to farm Mote of Mana from Pourfend-mage and Chercheur de mana. After about 10 minutes I had 10 motes = 1 Mana primordial and I was feeling pretty happy about it.

Just then someone /w me "are you farming primals?" and asked me if I wanted to group. I said "how does that work, do we roll on them?" She said "no, it's personal loot, but we can loot each others' corpses and it goes a lot faster."

So we grouped up and I noticed an immediate uptick in my mote loot rate. She suggested we kill for one minute, then loot for one minute, which I tried but I wasn't quite that organized. The killing does go quicker if you don't loot after each kill, but you also have to loot within a couple minutes or the corpses despawn.

The mobs just started spawning like crazy. I would run up to loot a sparkling pile of corpse crystals and 2 more mobs would spawn on top as I was looting. She said they would "hyperspawn" because they were mobs that were part of a quest, so the more you kill, the more they spawn.

She said in a 5-man group it went even quicker, and that grouping was now the best way to farm anything that mobs drop, including transmogs and pets.

After 50 minutes in the group, I had 244 motes, 14 green armor and weapons, 156 g worth of gray vendor trash, a Khorium lockbox and 2 Cristal de l'Aile-du-Néant. 24+ primals in an hour is completely insane and unbelieveable based on any farming experiences I have ever had previously. But it happened, and she said she got about the same.

So empty out your bags and head to your desired farming zone, and when you see another farmer from your faction: invite them to a group!
