Best farming spots in Cataclysm as of right now

Hello again everyone, the past few days I have been compiling the best farming spots in cataclysm. I am a pretty experienced bulk material farmer, however this is just my two cents.

As far as skinning goes, I found Uldum to be your best bet, by a good amount. Follow the red route down the river until you run out of crocadiles to skin, then head down to the cradle of the ancients. I find this route to be highly affective no matter how much time you're willing to devote to it. I spent two hours there and got around 200 savage leathers and 5 pristide hides. All of these sold withing two hours and I was 11k richer. Also, it's very important that you invest in an elixer of treasure finding when you're skinning. I got 2 stacks of Emberweave cloth and a few volatiles that added into that income.

Now as far as mining goes, I had a bit more trouble finding an amazing route to farm because I myself is not a miner. After doing some brief research this is the route that I found was the most effective. I included the herbalism route as well to save space. The black represents the best routes to farm, the grey is sub-optimal obsidium ore routes, the darker blue is the best whiptail route and the lighter blue is sub-optimal.



Hope you enjoy everybody, I will be posting again the next couple of days. Enjoy Cata and the most important rule of farming is NEVER GET BORED!!!

4.0.6, my personal opinions

Okay, so as you all know, 4.0.6 dropped a few days ago and so far it's pretty nice. Heroics were nerfed (Thank the wowgods aka Ghostcrawler) and some minor and major class changes have proved to be beneficial to the community as a whole. For example, hunter's MM spec is once again viable in every aspect of the game again! To me this is great news because my main is a hunter and I was having problems putting out decent dps in raids and heroics. In addition i've always loved the marksman spec so that made me even more happy to find out that MM was the new survival. The mastery system is insanely awesome as well. Wild quiver in my opinion is the best mastery for hunters. I don't think I will be respeccing anytime soon. Anyways, I apologise for not posting since the 24th but i've had some problems with my PC. More posts soon
