World of Warcraft Gold Farming: Motes of Gold

By: IC

Niche



There are several types of motes, nearly all of them worth a huge amount of money



Putting it simply there are seven types of motes, all of which can be turned into their primal elements for free, just right click on a stack of 10, remember to check on the AH if it’s the primals or the motes that are selling for the most, a single primal water may go for 30g, but a small stack (Between one and five) of mote of water may go for more than if you combined it into a Primal.



Prices



Primal Fire – 30 – 45g each

Primal Air – 30-40g each

Primal Water – 25-35g each

Primal Mana – 20-30g each

Primal Life – 15-25g each

Primal Earth – 5-10g each

Primal Shadow - 70s-2g each



Primal shadow up to primal life are hardly worth the effort., if you ever need any of these grind the more expensive Primals (such as fire or water), sell them and buy the lower ones at cheaper price.



Where



Primal Mana can be ground fairly easily in Netherstorm (34,57) at the ruins of Enkaat. The mana wraiths there drop about 1-2 with a 30% drop rate. While this is easy enough there are better places to grind motes, that can later be exchanged for primal mana.



The best place by far to grind Motes is the Elemental Plateau (67,23) in Nagrand. This can only be reached by a flying mount, however it does contain a lot of level 70 Fire, Wind and water elementals, all of which drop their respective motes. This is a fantastic grinding spot, with the only flaw being it is slowly becoming filled with constant farmers, making it a slow way to get your motes sometimes. However if the plateau is full of other players there are alternatives.



There are 3 places you can go, each which has elements all below level 70.



For Air there is a place called the Alter of Shadows in Shadowmoon Valley (58,70) around here you will find a fair few air elementals, there are also some that roam about Nagrand, they are however too far apart for any effective grinding.



For Fire Elements there are several spots, also in Shadowmoon Valley, the most effective being at (34,27) and (47,47) where you will find a large amount of fire elementals and earth elementals. Be careful here though, there are several parts on the lava which deal 600-800 damage per tick, making it a difficult place to grind if you are not careful



My all time favourite grinding spot has to be for Primal Water, this is a spot just south of the Elemental Plateau in Nagrand (58,26) Here you will find hundreds of water elementals (levels 64-66), you can easily get 150g to 300g an hour grinding Primal water here, and that doesn’t include the grey drops (about 30g an hour) and the greens 1 seems to drop every 20-30 minutes. This is based on a level 70 with good gear, if you are a lower level it will take you a little bit longer, especially as you will need to take a mana/food break more often!



Primal Might



If you are an alchemist you might want to turn your Primals into Primal Might.



Primal Might requires:



1x Primal Earth

1x Primal Water

1x Primal Air

1x Primal Fire

1x Primal Mana



It will however sell for the cost of mats plus upto 30-50 gold, depending on your server. This is a fantastic way to make more cash from your primals, it does however require 350 in alchemy.
