There are always about 5 bushels of bloodthistle above Duskwither Spire. They respawn every 10 minutes or so.

A tribute to the Blood Elves' addiction to magic. The herb contained in this node gives you a magic effect (spell damage boost) for its duration (10 minutes), and afterwards you go through withdrawals, where your spirit decreases (for 20 minutes, or until you consume another Bloodthistle).

Probably the most plentiful herb in the Blood Elf area, and makes starting out Herbalism very easy, and starting a new Blood Elf caster a treat.

You can only herb them as a Blood Elf, no other races of the Horde/Alliance can herb it.

Addiction to magic?

I think not.

They're addicted to these babies.

I always found it funny that this herb would make you have bloodthiste withdrawals. But anyways, this is a great way to get your herbing skill up. You can always find these things around the corner!

(This is mainly for RP'ers looking for a good laugh)

Bloodthistle (Cirsium sanguis) is an evergreen perennial herb indigenous only to Eversong Woods, Eastern Kingdoms. It grows 30-100 cm erect with numerous smooth stems and broad, spiny leaves. The inflorescence is 10-22 mm diameter, deep red, with all the florets of similar form.

Bloodthistle tends to thrive in areas where sunlight intensity is moderate, temperatures are moderate and magic is especially plentiful. It is common to see this herb grow in the wild around blood elf dwellings and other buildings or Sanctums where magic is practiced.

Due to unique toxic properties, Bloodthistle can only be safely used by Blood Elves. No other race has been known to consume the herb without inducing adverse side effects leading up to death.

Located within the stem and leaves, the toxin's constituents include several acidic phenols that Gnomish Scientists theorize have been warped by several ley lines that meet in its natural habitat. Many theorists agree that Bloodthistle may be a corrupted cousin of the Swiftthistle plant.

The toxin itself takes on the appearance of a bitter-tasting milky substance, and when consumed by a Blood Elf it acts as a catalyst to raise adrenaline, as well as production of Serotonin and Dopamine in the synapses. The results invariably cause short term effects such as euphoria, mild psychedelia, increased spell power, and a sense of well-being. The physiological effects include pupil dialation, increased heart rate and blood pressure, blurred vision, loss of appetite, a rise in body temperature, and other bodily dysfunction (usually in males).

Following the 'high' Blood Elf users will endure a lowered mood, or even depression (comedown). They may have feelings of increased anxiety, agitation, stress and other negative emotions. Others may have residual feelings of euphoria or calm (afterglow). Physiologically, users suffer withdrawal and may develop extreme thirst, exhaustion, lethargy, and cravings for another dose. The long term effects of Bloodthistle use by the Blood Elves have yet to be fully determined, though Gnomish Scientists theorize that serious damage is done to the neuro transmitters of the brain.

When used by other races outside of the Blood Elf species, death is usually imminent within days. Immediate effects are more pronounced than in Blood Elves, resulting in manic behavior and extreme socialability. Non-magic users may find they are able to cast spells and cantrips, albeit temporarily, while magic users will see stronger but unpredictable results in their own spellwork. When the initial effects of Bloodthistle subside, users will experience the onset of cramps, jaw-clenching, spasms, organ failure, and finally death.

Bloodthistle has been catagorized as a noxious herb that is highly addictive and generally fatal for consumption. It is illegal to sell or use in Shattrath and most Alliance territories.

as far as i know they dont give you any points to your herbing.

Kommentar von Aamunkajo

If you are not a Blood Elf, you can herb these and get classic herbalism skill, but nothing lootable comes from the node. Blood Elves still get the item.

I'm fairly sure it used to be lootable by other races also at some point, just not usable.
