I am still farming embersilk for the first aid achievement and more importantly to still make dreamcloth for bags on a weekly basis. Between my 2 tailors and using everything but the orbs I can make 5 dreamcloth a week each, meaning I need 40 bolts a week. I think this grop gave me the suggestion to farm the Troggs in Needlerock. That was a great place and the only downside was all the competition. Using the potion of treasure finding meant I could get 40 bolts usually in 30-40 mins. With patch 5.4 Blizz changed the Troggs to dropping only gold, so any other suggestions about good places to farm embersilk? I am going to check out the dwarves in the dry riverbed of twilight highlands. Those are in groups of 2 or so. Glad for any other ideas. On an unrelated not, 5.4 also seems to have changed the npcs in Wintergrasp to providing no drops. When things were slow I would take my toons there for the battleground for honor and get some Frostweave cloth in killing them. Stacks of that sell well on the ah. Oh well, not anymore. Brian

Thanks for the suggestions. I will check out those places. The last time I did it I did it at Krazzworks in Twilight Highlands. It is more up and down than I would like but the mobs are engaged with other npcs and usually die before they get to me and the respawn rate is good enough my first mobs have respawned by the time I get to the end, as long as no one else is there. I still use the potion of treasure finding to boost the return and get other useful stuff. I tend not to run dungeoins for farming. It is not that it is not doable but seems to be slower. This may all be moot. I am doing this embersilk farming primarily to make illusionary bags to top off the bank bag capacity of my various toons once I outfit them all with the royal satchels. I've got a couple alchemists who do the transmutes so I have the 30 volatiles per two tailors each to make the dreamcloth. I don't do the orbs dreamcloth so that is 5 dreamcloth per tailor. 8 dreamcloth per illusionary bag means just under 1 bag every other week per tailor. I don't mind farming the embersilk but up till now I could buy the volatile life on the ah for under 2g each by checking the ah regularly and buying all that appeared at that price. I haven't seen anything posted at that price for over 3 weeks.I won't pay the higher prices and won't diligently farm enough for the dreamcloth production. Such is life in WoW. Brian
