I have also seen a couple of these Spawn in the Slave Pens in Coil Fang Reservoir.

Kommentar von 10621

Found/Mined one. Got 5 hits out of it. Mining it is orange to me at 363.

Edit: Got lucky, found another one. Again, 5 hits. (Both of these were in Nagrand around 60,56 area, not that it would affect data)

Kommentar von 6571

When they say "rich", they mean rich. Got 7 hits out of one and 6 out of another...

Kommentar von 19870

I too have got some "rich" luck with these. I got 8 hits on one in Nagrand producing 5 eternium and an arcane crystal along with the 8 initial ore 0_0

I personally was able to reach 375 Mining without ever touching anything but Fel Iron. So, they really should have made Fel Iron stop counting at around 340 or something.

When I first saw a Rich Adamantite Deposit, figured I'd get like 3-4 hits like Rich Thorium ... was pleasently surprised!

Kommentar von Splinter

Uhm. I'll add that the deposits do have a chance to mine out rare gems on my server (Dragonblight-EU) even though it doesn't actually state this on this site. I have no clue why... Yes, I did verify this with a few other guild mates before posting this.

They also have the same chance to drop motes of earth as normal adamantite, to answer a previous poster.

Kommentar von 22265

Each vein can carry 5-8 Ores and has a chance not only to drop the green gems listed but a chance to drop the following blue gems (Other sites record this as a 0.1% chance to drop, however there is some speculation as to whether this was buffed 2.0.10. From my own personal experience I have had blue gems drop quite regularly from mining after 2.0.10)

As far as the best possible place for regular adamantite deposits as well as rich is definitely in Shadowmoon Valley at Netherwing Ledge.

I farm out 28 stacks of adamantite alone in an hour, no joke (depending on how many swings I get per mine). Usually come across 5 regular deposits and 2-3 rich ones and just keep flying around for respawns.

I've honestly never come across so many mines in a small space, especially with such a good turnout of rich deposits thrown in the mix. This is hands down the best spot I've found.

Is there a way to print the map with the pins?

Kommentar von poele

I never thought about it, thanks alot man!!!!

I don't get it, no zangamarsh? I found some out there along the mountains, and in the Bog cave where the spore guys fight.

Kommentar von Mythical

I suggest AVOIDING nagrand - too many players going there, and the area is huge.

Kommentar von Insane

After many runs in Netherstorm and SMV and Nagrand, I have developed the best mining route possible for Adamantite, Rich Adamantite, and Khorium. It's in Nagrand. Netherstorm and SMV have some nice clusters but you still get less ore overall than with this circuit.(##RESPBREAK##)272##DELIM##Uchur##DELIM##

i got about 30 primal earths,and like 7 blue gems from farming these in about an hour. these really are "rich" deposits.

Kommentar von Shivacode

In my experience the chance per hit of getting a blue gem out of a rich node is no more than a regular adamantite node. However, with rich nodes you get more hits, so the law of permutations is on your side.

Nonetheless, when you see one of these you've hit the motherlode. You can expect at the bare minimum 5-8G out of these blue babies from the ore alone, and that's not counting motes/gems. I've gotten up to 2 full Primals worth of Earth motes out of a single node (an 8G value on Vashj), so that's 16G without even getting particularly lucky!

I've found these like to spawn at the bottom of the 2 lakes in Nagrand as well as the ogre caves in the clefts.

heres the most effective way i've found start. at telaar go southwest until you start to hit the rocky outcrop and follow the entire west edge of nagrand if you have a flyer try exploring the twilight ridge. but be warned theres a 73 elite that wanders theres and can kill you/knock you off your flyer fast. continue following the mountains until you hit warmaul hill explore the two caves there (in my experiance 4-5 nodes there). then head west towards the laughing skull ruins and explore the 2 caves (the 1 at the top may not have any but somtimes has 1 near the entrance or inside) .then head towards northwind cleft and explore that cave (2-3 nodes) continue in the halaari basin until you hit right beside halaa and head west towards sunspring lake (usually 1-3 nodes). continue south towards southwind cleft and explore the cave (2-3 nodes) then head towards the burning blade ruins and explore that general area including the cave. then head towards the kill'sorrow fortress and give it a quick runthrough. thats what is most effective for me in roughly 1 hour i got adamantite 47 ores 3 khorium ores 6 primal earth several green gems and a arcane crystal all on the server Hydraxis

Rich Adamantite Deposit is giving 5-7 Ore... alongs with Motes of Earth / Green Gems / Blue Gems

while Adamantite Deposit is giving 2-4 Ore...and everything else are the same as Rich one.

Kommentar von Kefra

If you see a Rich Adamantite Deposit appear on your minimap and it's in one of the ogre caves in Nagrand, and you see signs of someone having been there very recently (i.e., dead ogres), skip it. It's probably another miner who saw it before you and is, even as you fight his respawns in a desperate attempt to get to the back of the cave, mining the deposit dry.

I sound bitter/resentful, but from personal experience it's true. Save yourself the wasted effort/frustration and skip the ogre cave deposits if you can see dead bodies outside...I should know, it happend to me FOUR !@#$%*& TIMES in a one-hour period yesterday...grr...

/pops a Ritalin...ahh...WoW is fun...

Kommentar von 118225

Im on a crowded server so these are not common to see in the Outland zones. However they work the same as a Rich Thorium Deposit, 4-6 hits. Does anyone know if it matters how long the deposit has been untouched as to how much it yields?

Kommentar von 42513

Have they removed blue gem drops from adamantite veins? :( I have farmed nagrand for 3 days straight without one blue drop.

Kommentar von 83214

This can sometimes be found on the Isle of Quel'Danas as of patch 2.4

Kommentar von 128242

On the Isle of Quel'Danas, these appear quite frequently it seems. What is unique about this is that I have not once seen Fel Iron nodes (to be fair, I haven't seen Khorium either, though I'm sure that's just because of its rarity) making this a perfect spot for farming. On Greengill Coast, there are three constantly respawning deposits of Adamantium. Typically, one of the three is a rich deposit. While that is a popular spot, because it respawns so quickly (every 7 minutes or so) farmers should ride up and down the coast along the wall.

I wonder how Blizzard would explain an Outland mineral appearing in Azeroth? Plants is simple enough to explain, but metal deposits?

I wonder how Blizzard would explain an Outland mineral appearing in Azeroth? Plants is simple enough to explain, but metal deposits?

There are two possible explanations, and both have nothing to do with lore/world.

- Isle of Quel'Danas from game point is infact in Outland. You can check that easily without any external tools by grouping with someone in Outland while staying on the island. You'll get a green arrow pointing toward your friend. Something that will not happen if the friend is in Azeroth (no matter which continent). The same is true for Blood Elf/Draenai starting zones. So imagine that blizz just post on the map "here be node" and then the server determines the type of the node to spawn by checking the level of the zone.

- It would be just funny to spawn low-level pre-tbc nodes on a place that you usually go at 70. Yes they sell well, but the effort to mine than will be just too much for a Thorium vein for example. Which again leads to the link between spawned node and level of the zone.

Kommentar von 201210

I'd have to say the sexiest deposit out of all the things you can mine, especially for a Jewelcrafter. With 5-8 hits per Deposit, and multiple of these in certain places (My favorite being Nagrand), a JWC can make a -ton- of cash by just farming this, prospecting, and selling the gems that come forth.

<3 Nagrand.

Kommentar von Pallyraid

I was able to mine 2 blue gems (seperate days) from nagrand rich Adamantite Deposits, they are very rare and I have only got both on the ridge on the furthest left side of nagrand

Kommentar von 128655

Green at 400 mining skill.

Kommentar von bladeofdark

by matter of opinion, where would i be best off farming adamantite? im considering the rich veins in either nagrand or netherstorm. I need 200 adamantite ore as quick as possible =)

Kommentar von Synix

I've compiled a simple mining route in paint for both Alliance and Horde. It's NOT the greatest, but it can be useful for quick reference, etc.

Enjoy.

Kommentar von 170689

Requires Mining 350 :)

Kommentar von 156600

There is ALWAYS one or two nodes directly northwest of Shattrath city. In a ogre infested area named Barrier Hills.
Every time i get out of a bg i always go check that area and it's net me a pretty good harvest.

Kommentar von Kaylin

I prefer the Isle of Quel'Danas when farming Adamantite. One circuit of the isle on a +100% mount is exactly the respawn time of the nodes allowing for excellent farming speed. The nodes are always in the same spot. I made a map in mspaint because I don't know how to use the wowhead maps. Nodes are in red and the route is in black.(##RESPBREAK##)272##DELIM##Uchur##DELIM##

Kommentar von simis10

Now after patch 3.0 (i think it was 3.0) you only need to mine once to get everything.

Kommentar von Pallyraid

It is still green at 450 mining skill.

Nagrand is the best area for mining. Most nodes and easy to fly circuits. There are up to 4 khorium viens up at a time (usually 20-40g a bar depending on the server).

There are easily 8-12 nodes of rich adamantite in nagrand alone.

Definitely a recommended area to power level your mining. Also be sure to push your mining above 375 so you can start mining saronite when you move on to Northend : D

Also look above to Insane's route, either direction will be the most efficient for mining.

Also if you have a hard time remembering every single node you can grab a gathering program only problem with them is they are annoying when you want to check what node it is specifically.

Kommentar von 174766

nothing says likely like a 112% chance to contain ore

Kommentar von ocelot113

They need to lower the mining lvl of this to the same as Adamantite Deposit. Makes mining in Outlands a pain in the ass. I had to pass by 25ish nodes in Nagrand while lvling 325-350. Adamantite Deposit's are sparse as it is. There is no reason you shouldnt be able to mine the Rich version at the same lvl... it's just more of the same. Atleast separate the zones better, I've seen more Rich Adamantite Deposit's than the regular stuff.

Kommentar von bookworm13

For the best resource for determining the Cataclysm adjusted mining levels as well as the best zones to farm them in, browse through the Mineral Veins listing.

Teach an elf to fish...

Kommentar von crackface

there is about 1/5th the amount of ore in nagrand than there was pre mop and most of that is fel iron.

Kommentar von 904467

As of Mist Of Pandaria, you can mine those at 345.
