Hey, y’all! Long time, no post! (Again) Today, I’m posting about mining in Silithus. I went there for Thorium Ore and Truesilver Ore. I followed the red line all the way around the edge and hit the other red areas too. There aren’t any caves with deposits around here, but the yellow circles show you where some tunnels are. To be honest, I didn’t even bother going down into the tunnels. I was drowning in deposits/veins above ground. This place was great for Thorium deposits, but Truesilver was a little more scarce.
I ended up farming for about TWO HOURS! after taking Darkmoon Firewater. For anyone who doesn’t know, Darkmoon Firewater reduces the amount of time it takes you to gather ore/herbs/skins/etc. I flew from deposit/vein to deposit/vein and here’s what my two hours got me:
1141 Thorium Ore (2282 gold)
1620 Dense Stone (32 gold)
Truesilver Ore (I forgot to write down how many I gathered before I deposited them in my bank. Smh @ myself)
41 Arcane Crystal (1640 gold)
11 Black Vitriol (1.5 gold)
12 Blue Sapphire (54 gold)
20 Huge Emerald (10 gold)
10 Azerothian Diamond (950 gold)
The gold amounts in parenthesis next to the items are the approximate Auction House value at this time (going from the lowest ‘buy now’ price). Each Citrine would be worth 14 gold, and since I got two of them, the price next to it says 28 gold.
So during that two hour period, I gathered almost 5,300 gold worth of items! Mostly just because of the sheer number of Thorium Ore I gathered. But also because Arcane Crystals are so pricey, and it looks like the price of Azerothian Diamonds and Large Opals went up recently. As we all know, AH prices can fluctuate, so these numbers might not be accurate after the day I checked them (07 DEC 2016). Just check my last post about mining here; you’ll see how prices fluctuate. If you have any useful gathering tips or if you have a question, feel free to submit it to the blog or send me a message :) Thanks for reading!
