I can 100% confirm my Rank 3 felslate seem experience:

It dropped on broken shore with a Legion mining skill of 99-100. With an active crystalline phial of perception. It dropped after 56 flasks..... It took 28 hours for me... and i was close to madness. Dropped from mining felslate seem ( Just saying because the ingame mining book tells you it drops from the normal felslate, thats wrong !!!!) Of course Rank 3 felslate seem drops from mining felslate seem. Please all AVM Hunters DO NOT GIVE UP !

Tbh i think its impossible to do this achievement unless if you maxed your mining during legion.
i farmed every R2-R3 with some try hard for each rank and most of them took me an average of 2 hours.
I'm facing a wall right now for Abbauverfahren: Teufelsschieferflöz + Abbauverfahren: Teufelsschiefervorkommen, they just don’t appear.
I farmed 2 weeks about 3/4 hours per day and no npc spawnned when mining felslate.
So there are 2 possibilities; the drop rate is completely &*!ed and im really really really unlucky or quests are bugged and do not drop anymore.

I reached a gm but as always there is no bug from their side and if i think there is a bug i should make a bug report :)

I decided to stop this boring and useless farm untill the launch of 10.1.7 and see if some people are like me and can't drop these 2 quests.
If you are like me, just target this achievement on the ptr and report bug or make a feedback about R3 from legion.

Anyway i can give some tips about mining in legion :

- If you start from scratch use an Highmountain Tauren.
- Buy Handschuhe - Bergbau der Verheerten Inseln + Dunkelmond-Feuerwasser.
- Grab every R1 first and after farm R2 then R3.
- Unlock Argus and grab R1 Empyriumvorkommen + Empyriumflöz / Since you can't fly Krokuun is the best area.
- Since mining can't use a mount like herbalism, i suggest to do this achievement during Schlotternächte and use Zauberbesen.
- Check wow profession they got some nice routes.
- Die Verheerte Küste is the best area for farm Felstate Seam and Leystone Seam.
- Do not focus Lebender Teufelsschiefer unless its your last R3 missing and go to Felsoul Hold.
- Same for Lebender Leystein this spot Lagunenbasilisk got a good respawn but from wowheads comment people dropped their R3 at Hafr Fjall and tbh i farmed here with 3 accounts and the respawn is too bad for a single account, try in azsuna if you got a single account maybe there is a better spot but you need to check by yourself.
- Do not expect Ranks 2+3 to drop easily, you can be lucky and drop one after 2 or 3 tries, be patient because it is probably one of the worst achievement from the 10.1.7 :)

Kommentar von Murbastic

Really low drop rate on these ones but they sure drop, my most pain was empyrium seam running around on that island :)

Kommentar von BladeKnight1120

Something I was wondering and can now happily confirm:
- You don't need to be max level for these to drop
- You don't need the others types in the same categories to be the same level

After mining the basilisks in Felsoul Hold for a couple hours I finally got Ondri to appear to get Living Felslate R3. My Legion mining skill was 82 at the time, and my Felslate Seam was R2 while my Felslate Deposit was R1. Go nuts if you feel like farming a particular type.

Kommentar von Brogash

I just got this achiev and will share my results going from rank 0-3 on all.

Leystone ore: 4977
Felslate ore: 2190, I had completed rank 3 on felslate and felslate seams at 1640 but had to clear more to make space for leystone seams.
Empyrium ore: 1465. At 1004 ores i was stuck on being at only rank 1 on ores and 2 on seams and started to get really worried, but it turned around rather quickly.
Legion mining skill when finished (probably doesnt matter) 98

For Living leystone rank 0-2 i recommend the basilisks with 0 downtime in Azsuna around 56/35. The reason im not recommending rank 3 for for this place is because firstly i couldnt even find a single comment from someone here that got rank 3 from them and me myself killed a few thousands there with no result. So instead i went to stormheim 55/93 as recommended plenty of times and got rank 3 from the basilisks there. there is only around 12 of them there and they respawn after 4-5 min but it does look to be the best place.

For Living felstone rank 0-3, the basilisks at Northern Felsoul hold, Suramar 29/63. You can combine this after clearing your route going in to caves and water areas in Suramar for both seams i usually killed some 30 to give proper time for respawn of seams then went out again.

Should you get Leystone seams rank 3 before felstone seam i recommend going to broken shore as it has much more felstone seams then other lands. Good luck!

Kommentar von Bzarth

I needed to complete the Argus questline until Khamir spawns after Xera is "recovered" after that I had both the Empyrium deposit chunk and seam chunk drop shortly after for rank 1.

Kommentar von Shaila1

The fact that blizzard added this achievement without looking into the drop rates of the rank 2/3 recipes is beyond me and deserves all the negative critic it gets. I farmed for HOURS/DAYS now with not even a single progress. It goes so far that it makes you wonder if your character is just bugged. Nothing should have such a low drop rate.

And this is not the first time blizzard simply fails to design fun and engaging achievements. They fail over and over again.

It is getting so frustrating to me that i am thinking about taking a break from the game/quit. I am simply so overly done with stupid achievements like this one only for them to maybe be fixed 9 months later after you already wasted hours over it.

Nothing about this whole achievement is fun. It should not exist. And the persons who are responsible for designing it deserve every bit of negative feedback. And i am willing to die on this hill.

If you ever were looking for a picture book example of "devs not playing theyre own game". This achievement takes the cake.

Kommentar von McDenny

What about infernal.brimstone, how so.you get from.rank 1 onwards?

I do.the wq when it appears but with no luck

Kommentar von Pedronia

Please don't be like me and farm 6k+ ley and 4k+ fel until you realize, that for the felslate quests to drop you need to complete a questchain. See e5ordie'S comment here Lyrelles rechter Arm#comments

Edit: I kid you not, the first seam after completing the last prequest and the arm was inside - tried to submit a screenshot as proof.

Edit 2: Finally done, just to let you know what might await you: 14.222 Leystone ore, 8.855 Felslate ore and 511 Empyrium ore. I guess you cant count 6k Leystone and 4k Felslate, as I was missing the last quest in the felslate quest chain. Also I never had to famr living ley or fel, as I farmed so many nodes that I got them from basilisks that spawn random. Empyrium was exceptionally fast though in the end. Well, I guess it is just rng after all.

Kommentar von Slawter93

From R2 felslate seam to R3 felslate seam it took 5k felslate ore and 7k leystone ore

Kommentar von Kyndmryn

In order to be ELIGIBLE to loot rank 2 and 3 of Felslate and Leystone techniques you need to complete 2 chains of 3 quests:
(FELSLATE -> The Felsmiths -> A Shred of Your Humanity -> Darkheart Thicket: Nal'ryssa's Sisters)
(LEYSTONE -> The Highmountain Tauren -> Where Respect is Due -> The Legend of Rethu Ironhorn)
You can start those quests in Dalaran from Mama Diggs AFTER you find all 6 rank 1 techniques (Leystone Deposit, Leystone Seam, Living Leystone --- Felslate Deposit, Felslate Seam, Living Felslate)

Kommentar von SavageChild

Don't get discouraged by all the other negative comments. This achievement is not bugged. It will take several days of grinding, but it is very doable and you will see steady progress. Here's a summary of the most useful tips from other posts and my own experience:

Leystone and Felslate Deposits/Seams: these ranks are obtained by mining nodes in non-Argus Legion zones. The best zone seems to be The Broken Shore. You'll earn rank 1 quickly. After rank 1, complete the mining quest chains from the Dalaran mining trainer before proceeding to ranks 2-3, which are much more rare.
Infernal Brimstone: earn rank 1 by completing a world quest (for me, it was in Highmountain). Earn ranks 2-3 by completing a quest chain, which is available from the Dalaran mining trainer only after earning Rank 2 in leystone deposits/seams and felslate deposits/seams.
Living Leystone and Living Felslate: I recommend waiting until earning all level 3 ranks in leystone deposits/seams and felslate deposits/seams before working on living leystone and living felslate. The reason is because mining any leystone or felslate node has a chance to spawn a basilisk. Mining the basilisk's corpse has a chance to earn the respective living leystone or living felslate ranks. If you still need living leystone/felslate ranks, the best places to farm are: for living leystone ranks 1-2, the basilisks at /way Azsuna 55 34; for living leystone rank 3, the basilisks at /way Stormheim 56 91--be sure to get nodes and basilisks in the 3 caves; for living felslate ranks 1-3, the basilisks at Felsoul Hold (/way Suramar 28 59).
Empyrium Deposits/Seams: ranks are obtained only by mining nodes in Argus zones. Because there's no flying in Argus, the best zone is Eredath. Rank 1 will become available only after progressing the main Argus storyline quests until Khamir spawns after Xera is recovered. Because of no flying in Argus, empyrium ranks are the most challenging of the entire achievement.

Additonal helpful tips:

Highmountain Taurens have a racial mining bonus. If possible, use a character with this race.
Create (or buy from AH) Enchant Gloves - Legion Mining.
Create (or buy from AH) Demonsteel Stirrups.
Max mining skill level is not required for any rank. You may actually earn the achievement before reaching max skill level.
With the exception of living leystone and living felslate, all ranks are obtained by either looting an item or spawning an NPC while mining nodes. Either way, it will initiate a quest that you turn in to a mining trainer in Suramar, Highmountain or the Argus ship.

Kommentar von Wildroot

I am unable to verify this however Crystalline Phial of Perception (Perception Boost) appears to have a substantial boost on Quest Items. I have noticed that when I have one on I seem to get a Rank 2/3 of Herb/Mining every 30-Minutes. When I do not I will go for hours upon end with none. I finished up Herbalism today, and have 3 Mining remaining. I have been at it for about four days. I went and added Perception to Mining and Herbalism Tools and noticed my speed increased further. I recommend anyone frustrated to try and let's gather data.

Kommentar von kingarthas13

Finally got this brutal achievement done today.

Finished with 17k leystone ore and 13k felslate ore.

I had everything at 4k leystone ore and 2.5k felslate ore EXCEPT for Felslate Seam.

It took an additional 13k leystone ore and 10.5k felslate ore before Lyrelle finally spawned.

Blizzard really needs to try playing its own game.

Kommentar von Megatitan

Ive read all of the comments. But im keep coming back to read them over and over again, just to calm myself. Reminding me that its not only me who struggle with this nonsense achievement. There is more people having hard tmes to finish this. Its so helpful to share the anger we have.

Kommentar von Knewbee

I farmed Living leystone rank 3 for hours in Azsuna and had no luck. Then I went to Stormheim 56,91 and rank 3 dropped for me within minutes. Not sure if its luck but it seems a few other people have had the same fortune as me.

Kommentar von Belsabu

This NEEDS to be buffed. Been farming this for months, making this achievement a true nightmare, nearly same as Draenor Curator.

At this point there's no fun at all, just a lazy achieve made just for one purpose: Spend hours and hours of gameplay forcing you to play obsolete content with not fun at all.

Kommentar von mmota

Possibly the worst achievement Ive done in the game since Draenor Curator. Took me over +50 hours of playtime starting from scratch

Kommentar von Weatherworn

I am wondering if I am doing something wrong. I completed the highmountain quests but stuck getting Leystone Seam R2. I have over 80 hours (demonsteel uses) (actually check that I have used 80 demonsteel so that is 160 farming) and have collected over 30k leystone. I am just flying around the Broken Shores which has many seams available.

Kommentar von Aprofis

While doing this achievment, i couldn't stop thinking of the song "Mine, Mine, Mine" from Pocahontas.

Mine, boys, mine ev'ry mountain
And dig, boys, dig 'til ya drop
Grab a pick, boys
Quick, boys
Shove in a shovel
Uncover those lovely
Pebbles that sparkle and shine
It's gold and it's mine, mine, mine
Dig and dig and dig and diggety
Dig and dig and dig and diggety
Oh, how I love it!
Riches for cheap!
There'll be heaps of it
And I'll be on top of the heap!

Listening to it makes this horrible achievment way more "endurable". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5MlBIavLjEQ

Kommentar von rhaenysqt

If you ever had switched from mining to different proff, make sure to buy this book Vergessene Techniken der Verheerten Inseln it will teach you all the ranks you gained before swapping, I mined for around 20 hours without getting any rank up so I went to check dalaran NPCs if they have any quest for me, they didnt, but I found this book on vendor, bought and used it and I got pretty much everything to rank 3.

Kommentar von Boccomino

I gave up on this achiev till they fix it.
Please someone let me know when they do.
It is insane, I almost got all herbs rank 3 while collecting all in broken shore, just missing aethril.
In the mean time, I only got rank 3 felslate seam and nothing else.
It's absurd the % for something like this.

Kommentar von Buuloki

Ensure you have completed the quest Das Finsterherzdickicht: Nal'ryssas Schwestern and other quests from this quest line! You may have abandoned it during Legion or previous expansions (i did). Without completing it, you cannot loot some ranks.

Kommentar von Knauki

So today was a mining quest in Suramar, where you have to mine 10 "special" felslate nodes, is it possible to spawn the quest NPC there?
The nodes are very close to each other and it should be possible to mine them while in a raid, so you don't get the credit.

I can't recall the name of the world quest, i completed it and thought about it later when i flew my loops around broken shore.

I DO NOT KNOW IF THIS WORKS!
i don't know if you can spawn the NPC with the special nodes
i don't know if the nodes are respawn fast enough to be valid

Maybe there is someone out, who is already desperate enough to try such a shallow theory.

Kommentar von Noldorimbor

I am done with this %^&* finally and I'm pretty sure RANK 3 drops for this achievement are on a weekly cooldown, you can get only one of them per week. I can not prove this yet, but my experience is getting them after 20 min farming every wednesday, but nothing for hours after that. Spare yourself some agony if you get a rank3 quest from a node or a seam and continue next week.

Kommentar von Brownkent

This is bad, like really, really bad. DO NOT attempt this if you don't have patience. rip smh

Kommentar von Laika18

Holy smokes. I read the comments before I started (from scratch) so I knew this was going to be rough. Let's be honest though, some part of us always thinks "maybe I'll be the exception, surely it won't be that bad." It was indeed that bad. By hour 10, I was not having a good time. By hour 20, I was fully in sunk cost fallacy territory (little did I know). By hour 30, I was entirely questioning my sanity. By hour 40, I was begging, pleading...please let this be over. "Surely the end is near" I told myself. Finally, around hour 55, I completed this god-forsaken achievement.

Good luck to others who are crazy enough to embark upon this journey. This is horrible game design and I hope for the sake of others the droprate is buffed in the future.

Kommentar von Knauki

Actually, THIS achivement should reward "...the insane" titel.

Kommentar von Uludil

As a dedicated achievement @#$%^ with 45k achievement points, let me tell you something:

I see others posting that the Stormheim basilisks somehow magically gets you Living Leystone rank 3. I seriously doubt that is the case. I've been clearing them out for months and months now, whenever I'm not raiding og pvp'ing. And guess what? NOTHING!

yes, I've done all the prereqs and my miner is eligible for the rank.

It's really just a horribly designed achievement. Let's all just pray the proc will somehow get buffed. I can only urge everyone to ticket and cry about it :)

Kommentar von boogg

So many people moaning about this achievement but not one comment that has a concise and clear method of how to actually do it without filtering through 200 comments most of them QQing and piecing it all together. Pretty annoying.
