THOUSAND NEEDLES (24-35)

Highly concentrated camps of Galak centaurs (24-28) make Thousand Needles an unexpectedly good silk farming zone, particularly at the lower levels. There are also significant populations of Gravelsnout kobolds (24-28) -- more spread evenly through the region than in highly concentrated camps. There are also several Grimtotem Tauren in the central part of the zone, but given that most of these are up on platforms, these are less convenient to include in a farming run.

While highly recommended for lower level silk farming, by the time you reach your late 20s, consider a move to one of the higher-level silk gathering zones, or run nearby Razorfen Kraul dungeon for good silk gathering.

Ren Recommends: Thousand Needles is an excellent mining zone, so if you are combining silk gathering with mining, consider this a premium spot for both.

ALTERAC MOUNTAINS (27-39)

The vast majority of your target mobs will be in the 32-36 range, just below the sweet spot, but with high density such that it will hardly matter.

Horde-only: The humanoids around Dalaran in the southwest corner range from levels 31-35; however, they will be friendly to Alliance, so only Horde can hunt here.

Ringing the zone are several camps of Syndicate humanoids (32-40), which both factions can enjoy farming. With a broad level range, you can hunt all through the sweet spot range. These aren't the densest farms, but they have the advantage of not being as accessible nor having as many quests as some areas such as Stranglethorn Vale.

Schläger der Trümmergratoger ogres (35-36) range to the east of the Ruins of Alterac, outside the castle gates. Stay outside the castle, as the inside is full of high-30s elite ogres. Since they don't drop more silk or drop it more often, it's inefficient to farm them unless you're way above level. Once you can handle these, they make a great loop route with the Syndicate.

Ren Recommends: Alterac Mountains provides not only excellent silk farming, but also great opportunities for mining and herbalism. It's not a great zone to combine with skinning, so choose Desolace if skinning is a priority.

FERALAS (40-50)

The Gordunni ogres (40-47) will be targets of opportunity at a wide level range, starting with the lowest-level ogres north of Camp Mojache. These lead nicely into Woodpaw gnolls (40-44) and Grimtotem tauren (41-44), all around Camp Mojache. This seems more convenient for Horde than Alliance, given the proximity to a Horde town. However, the paths north around town go straight through cloth camps, so it's just an opportunity for more farming.

The southern ogre camps in the High Wilderness are mostly in the higher level range and likely to get better yields, so move there when you are able. Unfortunately, they are also involved in a large number of quests, so whether it's a good farming day will depend a lot on local traffic. It is, however, densely populated and large, as well as in an area with excellent mining, herbing, and skinning potential.

Northspring harpies (48-50) are all right in your sweet spot, although it's not the most convenient place to pull due to changes in elevation and lots of caster mobs who won't come when called. They are plentiful and repop reasonably quickly, so it's still worth putting on your radar.

Ren Recommends: Feralas is my favorite zone, hands down. In addition to plentiful cloth camps, this is a great place to level all gathering professions. The Gordunni, Grimtotem and harpy camps are all in excellent areas for mining; the harpy camp is especially good as you can sometimes get higher-level Mithril and Truesilver mines along the northwest wall. Herbalists may wish to concentrate on the Woodpaw camps. And skinning all over the zone is nearly unparalleled for valuable Thick Leather; the yeti caves, hippogryphs, bears, and wolves around the High Wilderness are not to be missed.

TANARIS (40-50)

Wastewander humans (40-45) can be found east of Gadgetzan; in general, the lower level ones can be found more to the north and higher level to the south. Just beyond them, the densely-packed Southsea pirates (44-45) have both high density and a good repop rate. The map is somewhat sprawling, so they are not easy to string into a farming loop (plus there's an annoying run through a tunnel to get to the pirates that will dismount you). It's a good camp to get you ready for the real Tanaris cloth farming action: the ogres.

The Dunemaul ogres (45-48) have long held the reputation of being one of the best mageweave camps in the game, as they are plentiful, repop quickly, and mostly drop within the desired yield of up to 3 mageweave per drop. The terrain is flat, and it's an easy run among the three major camps.

Ren Recommends: Tanaris isn't the bomb zone for leveling other gathering professions, but it's the only zone in Kalimdor with a decent amount of Feuerblüte. Skinning is decent from wandering scorpions and basilisks, and farming birds for Riesenei can also be a good money source, as these are needed in quantity for Muschelette Surprise, the quest needed to get the final rank of Cooking. Sell these on the neutral Auction House for best convenience and quickest sales. (Also post a few stacks of Feiner alter Cheddar and Alteraclochkäse Alterac Swiss for one-stop shopping. Even when I didn't have eggs, I often kept a few stacks up on the neutral Auction House -- for a modest middleman fee, of course -- and usually sold out quickly).

FELWOOD (48-50)

If you're close to the highest levels of Feralas or Tanaris, don't have much mageweave left to farm, and wish to jump-start on Runenstoff and Teufelsstoff farming, head to Felwood to hunt the low-level Deadwood furlbog camp (48-50) in the southern part of the zone. In addition to good cloth drop rates, you'll start building Timbermaw Hold reputation.

The upside to this camp is that the mobs are in the sweet spot and repop quickly. The downside is that this is a well-known camp and there is likely to be stiff competition for the spawn. Still, it's worth mentioning that this can be a viable mageweave camp that allows you to transition to the higher-level cloth.

FELWOOD (48-55)

See Felcloth (below) for camps and map.

This is one overlap that will suit you well -- Felcloth's drop rate is so low (3-5%) that you can double your fun and profit by farming for both Runecloth and Felcloth at the same time. You could add in some trips around the furlbog camps in the zone for Runecloth only, but I'd recommend sticking to the demons for a chance for valuable Felcloth drops. Add in the furlbogs only if you are working Timbermaw Hold rep.

Ren Recommends: If you are going after furlbogs for runecloth, be very, very careful to distinguish the "good" furlbogs from the "bad" furlbogs. Hunting the Timbermaw furlbogs in the caverns between Felwood and Winterspring will yield runecloth, but it will also have a nasty negative effect on your Timbermaw Hold rep. As in life, it's much easier to lose vast amounts of reputation than it is to build it back up again.

WESTERN PLAGUELANDS (51-58)

With several undead camps and a few humanoid camps, the central part of Western Plaguelands is an excellent lower-level runecloth farm, and a smooth transition to the higher-level and runecloth-rich Eastern Plaguelands. Several Undead (53-56) haunt the various farms, as well as the Ruins of Andorhol (be very careful here, as there are wandering elites). Around the northern wall and up to the road to Hearthglen, you will find several small Scarlet Crusade (52-58) camps; don't go up to Hearthglen unless you're with a group due to the concentration of elites there.

Ren Recommends: Use your undead-killing time to raise your ArgentumdämmerungArgent Dawn faction. Acquire an Anstecknadel der Argentumdämmerung trinket from Anstecknadel der Argentumdämmerung at the Bulwark in Tirisfal Glades for Horde, or Anstecknadel der Argentumdämmerung at Chillwind Camp in Western Plaguelands for the Alliance to start earning Scourgestones from undead kills.

The farm locations of the undead camps also mean good higher-level herbalism. Choose to concentrate on the humanoid Scarlet camps if you're a miner since these are all in or near mountain areas. There is decent skinning throughout the zone.

EASTERN PLAGUELANDS (53-60)

There are many, many undead camps in Eastern Plaguelands, and not all of them have been included here as they are out of the way for a farming loop. As suggested in the section on Western Plaguelands above, get the Anstecknadel der Argentumdämmerung trinket before you start so you can farm Scourgestones for Argentumdämmerung reputation while you're doing these camps.

Your bread and butter will be the large Plaguewood area south of Stratholme. It's enormous and positively teeming with Undead (53-58). If this area is overly camped, or you want to concentrate on higher-level mobs to ensure better yields in the sweet spot. There are three undead areas you can string together: Corrin's Crossing (55-58) in the center of the zone, and two camps north of Light's Hope Chapel that are 57-59/60. If you're doing this, you can also string in the one large Troll camp (57-59) in the northernmost section.

There are a few other scattered camps of undead, trolls, and elves that aren't included here. These are small, remote, and don't add much to farming loops (plus the Elves cannot be hunted by Alliance). Eastern Plaguelands is so spoiled for choice that camps can be left out.

SILITHUS (55-60)

Silithus doesn't have any large camps, and they're spread out, but it has one big advantage: the Twilight's Hammer (57-61) mobs. You'll need to farm them for Runecloth, and they are also necessary for raising Zirkel des Cenarius reputation. These are also heavily farmed for Verschlüsselter Schattenhammertext drops for Geheime Nachrichten, which is a repeatable reputation turn-in for Cenarion Circle.

Ren Recommends: This isn't a great cloth-only camp, mostly due to heavy traffic. This is primarily presented as an option for those who want to prioritize Cenarion Circle reputation as well.

DEADWIND PASS (55-60)

This is an out-of-the-way and offbeat cloth farm -- presented here as more of an alternative than the main camp. It's great if you don't enjoy the crowds, as many of the other Runecloth camps will be heavily farmed and/or heavily involved in quests or earning reputation. Deadwind Pass has few if any quests (mostly associated with very high-level class quests) and mob-packed roads to get there. The aggravating trip alone will keep all but the most dedicated farmers away, but it has the advantage of having all its mobs in the sweet spot.

At the lower end are the Deadwind Ogres of the Vice (55-58), both in outdoor camps and in a small cave system to the southern end of their territory. On the road to Karazhan and around the old castle itself are plenty of undead (59-60). Inconvenient perhaps, but worth a trip for a dedicated farmer.

Best Places to Farm Felcloth

FELWOOD (48-55)

Felwood's camps are small, but they provide some good early opportunities to hunt both Felcloth and Runecloth. If you decided to move your late Mageweave farming to Felwood, you could transition to all three types of cloth in one reasonably compact zone.

For Felcloth (and Runecloth), you will be targeting Jadefire satyrs in three areas: two in the middle-west and one west of Irontree Woods. The lower level satyrs (50-51) overlap with Mageweave; the higher-level ones (51-52) can drop either Runecloth or Mageweave in addition to Felcloth. For the most part, you'll probably stick to the camps in Jaedenar and south of it, but these are popular farming zones. Moving to the northern camp may be necessary from time to time.

Ren Recommends: Felwood is probably my second favorite zone, not only for cloth but also for mining, herbalism, and skinning. The bears and wolves are also in high demand for meat for important cooking recipes, such as Rezept: Zartes Wolfsteak. This was my favorite zone for farming Rugged Leather for the event to open the Gates of Ahn'Qiraj.

AZSHARA (45-55)

Azshara's camps are not nearly as good as the ones in Felwood, but they are presented here as a farming alternative when Felwood is overrun. There are a few camps of Legashi satyrs (51-53) in northern Azshara that present some quieter opportunities for Felcloth farming.

Like the satyrs in Felwood, the Azshara satyrs are also involved in the Warlock quest line to learn how to summon the Höllenbestie beschwören, starting with the quest Nibys Anweisungen.

Tried killing a few centaurs for silk, but the drop rate is abysmal. Better off killing Seuchenverbreiter in Raven Hill instead.

The information for Mageweave Cloth is completely wrong. I tried the biased recommendation of Feralas and killed 15 ogres without a single cloth dropping. I know WoW is known for the most flawed RNG engine ever, so I kept going for an experiment. I made my way through the whole Gordunni area and ended up with 13 cloth out of 42 kills. That's less than a third per kill.

I then followed the tip from the Mageweave Cloth page comments and farmed in Hinterlands. First two drops were 3x and 2x so I knew I was in the right place. It averaged out to be more than 1 cloth per kill.

TL;DR; Don't go to Feralas, go to Hinterlands.

Worth mentioning for Farming Runecloth in EPL, WPL, or Deadwind Pass (if going after the Undead area). Make sure to equip your AD Trinket.

tried farming the Dunemaul ogres in Tanaris for Mageweave, got maybe 3 stacks in over an hour's farming. whilst you might get drops of 2 and 3 on an induvidual kill, it was taking me betwee 4 and 6 kills to get a single drop on average.

I've been farming silk, off and on, for the last few weeks. I started at level 35, and I'm now 39, as a lock. I'll pick a day in the week and just farm silk. I've been doing endless loops of the centaur cave in 1k Needles. Today, I tried around Dalaran, and the Fold up north of it. While the drop rate is higher in both than the centaurs, it isn't as a consistent kill rate.

Dalaran:
The humanoid npcs have, so far, only dropped one more (potentially) per kill. The rate seems to be slightly higher though. The problem is, you have the elementals mixed in there as well. Those, of course, don't drop silk. For every humanoid I kill, I have to kill 2 to 3 elementals as well. Wasting time and slowing the process down. They also are not nearly as packed in as the centaurs are.

The Fold:
They aren't as compacted as centaurs, and don't spawn as quickly. They seem to have the same drop rate as the Dalaran npcs, and are in the 38 to 40 level range. So, for me at level 39, the kill rate is much slower.

Centaur cave:
For me, this is the good spot. You have a consistent solid chest in there, often times with a green (or once a blue) to DE. There are also at least 2 mining nodes, often 3. They range from Iron to Truesilver. I can chain the centaurs 3 to 4 at a time,depending on the damage type of the centaur. If they are melee, I can have my pet agro one, I'll dot it with two dots, then have him move to the next. I'll chain 3 this way. By the time I've gotten the 3rd down around 90%, the first one is dead. If there are caster cents, I can 3 dot it and just ignore him. The dots will kill it on it's own and they don't do enough to worry about. Their spawn rate is quick enough, that by the time I'm at the beginning of my loop, they've all spawned again. The only slow down is my mana regeneration rate. If I keep that in check, it's endless killing with no need for breaks.

Their drop rate isn't as high, and you only get 1 to 2 silk per drop. There is the possibility of wool in there too. However, with the higher kill rate, this is the superior spot for me as Horde, and at my level. Out in Duskwood may be better, but the travel time makes it possibly not worth the effort comparatively. You also have the quick trip over the Freewind to offload if you need to. One trip (around 3 hours of fairly casually killing) will net me 60 to 80 silk, 20 to 30 wool, 20 - 30 iron, 10 to 20 mithril and a handful of greens. You have a higher chance of truesilver, as well as gold too. There tends to be a truesilver every other trip. On occasion, I've had it respawn as truesilver again in the same trip.

Such a great guide still! The classic wow guides are some of the best written on this site, I'm happy to say they are still useful in Season of Discovery.
