Only good if you want to craft some gear with Leatherworking that you will equip. If you plan to "powerlevel" Leatherworking, you can vendor/auction this item. There are cheaper ways of getting up Leatherworking without using this item at all.

If you are wanting to farm these Dustwallow Marsh is the best place to farm by far. Tons of murlocs that drop these are grouped up on the two northeast islands. These murlocs are levels 35-37. Stranglethorn Vale has some npcs that drop them as well but there's way less of them to kill, but if you want to try to farm these scales in STV the murlocs are grouped up a little ways northeast of the Horde town.

I believe this is one of Blizz's cruel jokes. The items made from the murloc scale (2 of them) are pretty nice for the level but...

-they require too many scales for casual crafting or leveling your crafting.
-the mobs that drop them are much higher the level of the items.
-since the drop rate is not particularly high and the mobs aren't involved in many quests, it makes purchasing out of the AH an unlikely option.

The two items made would be something a higher level LW toon might farm up for a lowbie alt but not likely for anything else. Because of it's level, the Thick Murloc Armor might have been good for twinking but modern twinks use BoA armor instead.

I think this is another "lost" Cataclysm reagent.

Now I didnt farm all 21 of the NPC's listed as dropping them. But I did farm (try to farm) the top 8 on the list.
All the listed Murlocs in Stranglethorn (on the coast) are no longer in game. Or if they are I cant find them.
The Mirefins, in Dustwallow are still in game, but they no longer drop the Thick Murloc Scales.

My guess is like Slimy Murloc Scales Blizz just forgot about them. Or didnt realize they were part of reagents for crafting.
Either way from what I can tell they gone out of game.

I second that. I've killed a ton of these murlocs and none of them drop the thick murloc scales anymore.

Sadly I too wasted some time farming the old mobs for this item with no joy. What I noticed now is that it is a ilvl35 item, and typically Blizz mobs drop items of a certain i'lvl several levels below the mob lvl that drops it.

Anyone know of any lvl 38-40 Murlocs?

I read the problems with the Thick Murloc Scales on here, proceeded for farm different areas for them, STV, Swamp of Sorrows, and then Duskwallow. Not a one. So, I decided to be a real pain in the arse and contact a GM for any tips as to what the deal is. Are they actually missing since Cata? Or are we just missing them?

"Upon investing this situation, it appears that you may need to stay around Dustwallow Marsh and kill some mobs as it still does drop! :D But I cannot say exactly from what. :)"

So, apparently Dustwallow Marsh is still the place, just hit up the murlocs there, right?. I headed to the popular Northern coast's little islands. I farmed every island a few times over. Not a one. So, I took a break and flew around Duskwallow, thinking maybe there are some new, random Murloc homesteads. Not a one.

End result: These are truly missing. I have found many items more different to find, but I haven't seen a single one drop. So much for crafting a chest piece for a friend who went from boom to kitty.

Mr. GM, you are very misinformed.

I asked a blizz employee about these scales and they confirmed that they no longer are available to loot in game, though they suggested asking around, in case someone might have it stored away in a bank full of junk.

This is sad news, as the Dicke Murlocrüstung which you need these scales to make, is one of the few pink leather chest pieces in the game for transmog *sadface*

Just bought a stack of 10 of these from the AH. I stopped looking for months after I saw they were possibly removed from the game. I sent the person that was selling them an in-game mail. I'll re post after I find out if they got them recently or had them stashed away.

Kommentar von Skeven

Apparently people want a tip on how to obtain this item easy. Well, in Hillsbrad Foothills there is a rare called "Scargil." He drops this scale, the chance is quite low though. But you don't have to sit and watch untill he spawns.

The way I obtained more than 10 scales was simply that I placed one of my alts by the rare spawn and kept logging in each 5 hour that passed, Sure it will take quite some time. Though, it isn't much effort put in to obtain the item. Just the time that you'll need to suffer through.

Narbenflosse = Dicke Murlocschuppe @ 5% Drop-rate. This NPC is Rare.

According to the official World of Warcraft Atlas, this mob is rated as Uncommon rarity with a respawn timer of ~5-8 hours.

Kommentar von 752380

Negative they are not missing from the game!

Short answer:
Deepfin Humaniods in Northwest edge of Abyssal Depths - Vashj'ir
100% Drop rate, 40 kills, 40 drops on this scale, along with very generous asst items and some 500G blue shoulders in my farming sesson :) Maybe a world drop idk.

Also see the ones captured by squid "Taken Gibilin" They drop them as well, 100%.

Here's the fun story how I found them....

So a couple days ago Im researching what I need to farm next to skillup the painful Leatherworking, and Murloc armor fit the bill, especially since I can wear it on my druid soon.. and I just bought the recipes for all of them... then I read all the sorrow from the above posts.. well plan B I guess since the item isnt in the game.

So then tonight, Im out looking for Obsidium/Elementium WAY far away from where these things should drop and onea these lil booger Goblins aggroes me, I waste em just for the heck of it... and guess what I see. The mysterious Tk. Mur. scale. I gotta say, I was pretty excited considering all the lore about this dang thing, and that I actually need it NOW and... well I found a lost item drop.

Of course the only catch is you have to have a lvl 81-ish toon to go out there and farm em, but I don't think thats a real problem for most.

Your welcome :P

THEY'RE STILL IN GAME OMG YAY!

HUGE wtf on where though.

Must be 80 to farm

I'm going back into vashj'ir after the server crap with the wowhead addon and I'm going to farm the crap out of those mobs to update the data here.

out of about 12-13 kills on the gilblins on the alliance side (my mage is horde) I got 17 or 18 murloc scale!

this was in Kelp'thar forest.

I assume if alliance wanders towards the undercity ship the horde spawns in they'd find the same kind of drops

I didn't get any by our ship!

I'm elated!
:D

I just farmed a (very) few from Greymist murlocs along the Twilight Shore of Darkshore, near Remtravel's Excavation. I have about 5 from doing Archaeologist Groff's quests on some of my alts. Perhaps there was an issue with the drop rate on these when Cataclysm was released and they fixed it recently.

Kommentar von gardenbearz

Got over 40 of these today while doing quests just outside Deepmist Grotto, in the Kelp'thar area of Vashj'ir. Glad I checked here I will put them in AH rather than vendor ^.^

Kommentar von 386002

Just had one drop in Swamp of Sorrows off a Murloc, so low levels can get them again too :D

Kommentar von 1108010

I looted 26 Thick Murloc Scales just from doing a couple quests in Kelp'Thar Forest, killing (maybe 9ish) Gilblins at Gurboggle's Ledge. Highest drop rate I've seen in a long time.

Kommentar von 841086

These drop in Vashj'ir from the goblinoid/murlocish mobs. Had 10 drop drop just questing.

Kommentar von Karla

Was farming Formel: Handschuhe - Angeln from 18-20 Tornfin Murlocs in Hillsbrad Foothills and discovered that these were dropping from them. They're an incredibly low drop rate; I think I've gotten 4 out of 50 kills so far. But if you're wanting something lower than the lvl 80s in Vash'ir, you can check this place out.

Kommentar von 908722

These do drop from the Gilblin's (little black goblins) that are all around Smugglers scar at about 38,27. And the drop rate is almost 99%.

Kommentar von 1125213

Just to everyone that can't find these - while levelling in Redridge Mountains I encountered a few from killing the murlocs in Lake Everstill. Only got 3 from killing ten of them, but it's a level 16 mob so it is available for anyone to farm.

Kommentar von 732640

For a long period of time, these only dropped from one rare in Hillsbrad Foothills, Scargil. Now it seems that they have added more drops (or fixed a long-time bug?), hurray! Now, I hope they fix some of the other bugs in the game...

Kommentar von KrystalMage

Just picked one up from the Murlocs along riverbank near the Maclure vineyard in Elywnn Forest, or possibly around Stone Cairn Lake, didn't pay much attention to it until logging on here to see if it was valuable... will look out in future...

Kommentar von Eleora

Gilblins at Seafarer's Tomb (starter Vash'jir zone) are amazing for this. I get 75% drop for them.

Edit: 13 Gilblin scavengers killed 11 drops :)

Kommentar von drewbster

For right now, these seem to be dropping pretty well from the Bluegill murlocs north of Menethil Harbor in the Wetlands. Just picked up 8 while doing Klauen aus der Tiefe.

Back in the day I remember grinding Murkgills in Stranglethorn (east of Grom'Gol), so maybe those are sources again too.

Kommentar von DaggersEdge

Wetlands seems to be the place to go for farming Thick Murloc Scales. Right outside Menethil Harbor is a sub-zone called Bluegill Marsh and any of the murlocs there have a pretty decent drop rate. I managed to get 12 Thick Murloc Scales in 15 minutes. TomTom coordinates for the marsh start at about /way 13.65, 42.65. It stretches all the way along the coast until you hit Sundown Marsh around /way 18.24, 28.24. Good luck!

Kommentar von rrrof711

They must have changed the drop rate of the thick murloc scales from the giblins in Vash'jir because i killed about 30 and didn't get 1. However, the bluegill murlocs in Wetlands dropped 1 every 6 or 7 i took out. It seems the Puddlejumpers and Bluegill Murlocs have a higher drop chance than the Foragers.

Kommentar von Lucella

I'm getting loads of these in 7.3.0 from the murlocs in and around the pool in Kal'ai ruins, Stranglethorn. It's the area shaded in purple north east of Grom'gol Base Camp.

Kommentar von Elfizm

I tried the two Nth/E islands in Dustwallow Marsh, two full clears yielded no Thick Murloc Scale at all.

Next I went to Wetlands and within a very few minutes I had 5 from the Bluegill Murlocs, so that seems to be a good place to farm them currently.
