I'm currently farming these for frost pots to bring to Kharazan, and after having tried Arathi Highlands, I highly recommend the Lesser Water Elementals of Stranglethorn Vale. No, the droprate isn't higher pound per pound, but the mobs are a lot more plentiful. If you're a lvl 70 and you're gonna farm these, you will be spending at least 5 minutes waiting in between spawns in Arathi, whereas the waiting time in Stranglethorn is shorter, and the action more plentiful. A more pleasant and productive grind.

Currently I'm getting between 1-6 elemental waters per "spawn wave" (No pun intended) with an average waiting time of about 2 minutes. Very fast.

I farmed these at the camp of Cresting Exiles in Arathi for about 45 minutes and came out with 12. I found that each time you clear the camp you get about one drop. So one Elemental Water every four or five minutes.

Best place is definitely at STV. they keep respawning fairly quickly once you're done clearing it. It is an island located northwest of STV. (20,23). About 10% drop rate.

Also the western coast of Feralas, loads of fast spawning elementals there, but these are also the target of a quest picked up in the area, so depending on the time of day, could get a bit crowded.

this may sound a bit ulikely, but i got 2 of the right after each other in 1K needles. doing the "sacred flame" quest i killed alot of the water elementals. now im gonna try push the pricing for them as high ass i can get them :P

I've found that the fastest way to obtain a few of these is actually through fishing the patches of elemental water in Azshara. If nobody else happens to be fishing in this area, which is pretty often considering how few people fish for profit (especially in lower level areas), you'll probably catch 10-20 elemental waters in 45 minutes or so. I got really lucky and picked up 21 in half an hour, but I was on a 70 druid for added swimming speed.

Go to http://www.elsanglin.com/fishing_elemental_water.html for more information. Just keep in mind that the article was written pre-BC and is a bit outdated, but the spawn points and such are still accurate.

There is a slight problem with the comments on this item...Elemental Water...these do not drop from STV....those are Enchanted Water, not Elemental water, which this page is about. Elemental Waters drop from either Arathi Highlands as mentioned above or they drop from fishing in Azshara. Enchanted water drops frequently in STV on that island but not elemental water.

I assure you, Elemental water does drop off the mobs mentioned in STV.

Комментарий от Slater

cleared the entire STV island (20 or so elementals) and got 1 drop. Good call guys. Slow respawns also.

Комментарий от 156433

20 drops in less than an hour. Most of them dropped in the first half hour. Fairly quick respawn also.

Комментарий от 158598

I cleared the island off the coast of northern STV 6 times and it yielded:
9 Elemental Water
149 Enchanted Water
32 Azuredeep Shards

Then I cleared another 3 times and got 13 Elemental Water.

off teh water elementals in STV. they are on the island on the top left, or at coords 20,22.

killed about 20 and 4 or 5 dropped.
great for tailoring if you need them in a recipe!

Комментарий от Thottbot

No way the drop rate is ~4% on the Scalding Elementals in Thousand Needles. I've experienced a lot more, at least 15-20%.

Комментарий от Thottbot

After patch 2.1 the drop rate of the low-level elements like this has increased ALOT.

Water elementals in Stranglethorn Vale around 21,23 drop Elemental Water at around 15-20% droprate now.

Expect the prices to drop like stones from an airplane.

Комментарий от Thottbot

Dropped by fouled water spirit around Bloodmyst Isle.

Комментарий от Thottbot

I grinded at the Circle of East Binding for around 2-3 hours last night, I have a grand total of 14.
Drop rate doesn't seem that bad.

Комментарий от Thottbot

Just got 4 in less than 10 minutes at the Circle of East Binding in Arathi.

Комментарий от Thottbot

I would strongly recommend going to the island in sv over the circle of binding in arathi drop rate is alot better.

Комментарий от Thottbot

Ok....so I went to the exile place in Arathi. I slaughtered the entire place (which is pretty easy for an SPriest) and I only got one elemental water... I continued the masacre for awhile. Then I went to STV. I killed three and one dropped. I killed three more. Another dropped. STV is the way to go.

Комментарий от Thottbot

I was bored so I started killing the exiles in arathi with my lvl 41 paladin, after 170 kills I had 20 elemental waters, 12% droprate, I also got enough xp to level up :-)

Комментарий от Thottbot

got some off of the fouled water spirits in bloodmyst isle. Killed about 40 and recieved 5

Комментарий от Thottbot

In 45 min I got 8 pieces, that's kinda low: 1 in 5.62 min

Комментарий от Thottbot

The best place to farm Elemental Water is easily STV.The Lesser Water Elementals on the island in northwestern STV drop the water much more than the cresting exiles in arathi. Also, there are much more elementals at stv.

STV
Time farmed- 20 minutes
Water dropped- 7

Arathi
Time farmed- 20 minutes
Water dropped-3

Комментарий от Thottbot

Needed to farm 20 of these for Jewelcrafting. Ended up killing 125 water elementals on the northwestern island in Stranglethorn Vale to get them.

Комментарий от Thottbot

I Killed 183 to get 20 in STV, not too bad.

Комментарий от Thottbot

I had much better luck this morning with the elementals in Arathi than in Stranglethorn.

Комментарий от Thottbot

I haven't tried farming in Arathi but in STV the droprate is a consistent 9% average. As with all drops they seem to come in groups... you get a couple then you don't get any. The average rate though is right at 9%. I killed 130 and received 12 (also 2 greens and a blue).

Update: farmed another 100 or so elementals; the drop-rate has increased to about 10%. Also many more greens.

Комментарий от Thottbot

Farmed the island off the Savage Coast in STV for these. I needed 12.

Took a little over one hour, I cleared the island 7.5 times.

12 Elemental Water
266(!) Enchanted Water
72 Azuredeep Shards
6 low-30s greens.
1 Strong Iron Lockbox.

I got 4 elemental water out of 13 lesser elementals killed. I only got 1 when I cleared all the water elementals at a single spawn in Arathi, plus in STV the island pretty much only has elementals on it. In Arathi, you've got a lot more wandering mobs that might join in. The tactic of working your way around the island so the first ones you fought have respawned by the time you get back around is a good one. I've done that to good effect when farming elemental water for my crafting friends.

Edit:
Tried this again last night.
I cleared the island 15 times (meaning I went counterclockwise from the south, killing all the elementals on the island 15 times).
I got:
17 Elemental Water
94 Azuredeep Shards (gray vendor trash worth about 80 cp each)
191 Enchanted Water
Chief Brigadier Cloak
Sentinel Boots of the Monkey
- I got a magic item about every fifth time around the island (horrible drop rate for mediocre items).
- I was on my 3rd time around when the first elemental water dropped. I didn't always get one per trip around (sometimes got none one time and two the next). Makes me think only about one elemental on the island actually has an elemntal water at a time (there are 13-20 elementals on the island at any one time by my count).
- A lot of the elementals drop nothing. I only saw one Azuredeep Shards drop per mob. Only 1 elemental water per mob (when it did drop). You can get up to 5 enchanted waters at one time (that's the most I got at one time). You can get all three items from a single kill sometimes (what I call a "juicy" mob).
- May be a coincidence but 15 of the 17 elemental waters I got were from elementals on the southern/southeastern part of the island.
- The elementals swimming in the water off the northwest part of the island almost never had any loot at all and when they did it was 1 Azuredeep Shards or 1 Enchanted Water.

(Sent the Elemental Waters to a tailoring friend, sold the shards to a vendor, still don't know if I should bother AHing the Enchanted Water. Also, on my way back to Booty Bay I stopped to mine some iron and had to kill a Cold Eye Basilisk nearby. It dropped the Cold Basilisk Eye trinket. Woot!)

ive gotten no drops from Cresting Exiles in Arathi after about 100 kills.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

only drop, but alchemy can use it to make Greater Frost Protection Potion.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

sorry about triple post :/

These can now be fished .. similiar to the pools of random fish .. there are "patches of elemental water". I found several pools in the Bay of Storms in Azshara. Note that you can also fish Essence of Water and Globes of Water from these patches as well.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

They added the recipe to split the heart of fire into 3 elemental fire, because ppl were complaining about making greater fire prot pots, but why not add the same recipe for the other elemental types? I wanna make buttloads of nature and frost pots now.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

CAn this be made with Alchemy skill or does it only drop?

Комментарий от Allakhazam

The drop rate from cresting exile in arathi is totally wrong, i killed 44 of this and dropped only 2 elemental water (4,54% drop), i'm a lvl 43 holy priest, is there a good place for me where i can fam this?

Комментарий от Allakhazam

the best place to farm this is in STV, on the big island... there are a lot of water elements (lvl 36/37) and their drop rate is like 11%, good luck =)

Комментарий от Allakhazam

20/20 I think blizzard likes me ^^

Комментарий от Allakhazam

I killed over 100 cresting exiles yesterday and received 75 enchanted water, 35 crests and only 1 elemental water. Based on this drop rate I should have gotten approximately 10 elemental waters.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Saying that the droprate is wrong cause you got 2 elementals out of 44 kills is just lame. If you look really close you see that allakhazam got it's droprate out of 58.000 kills, and if you knew just a tiny bit about statistics, you would know that such a large source is more reliable.
What you just said is like me saying that I got no elemental waters out of 1 kill, thus the droprate is 0%

Комментарий от Allakhazam

I know the stats disagree, but I've been taking turns grinding the Lesser Water Elementals in STV and Cresting Exiles in Arathi and I've been getting a lot more Elemental Water drops in STV...

Also, if you start at one end of that island in STV and work your way to the other side (lengthways) the first mobs will be freshly respawned again by the time you reach the end; rinse repeat. Cresting Exiles on the other hand are a smaller pop so you'll always have downtime waiting for respawn. Obviously your server load will alter any respawn rates, so there may be times when Arathi grinding is desirable... I doubt it though.

In short; stick with Lesser Water Elementals in STV if you want Elemental Water.

Classic WoW

Farmed at Felwood from Toxic Horrors during the quiet hours (around 3am)

I used 5x Bobbing Apples as a measure of time (15min x 5pieces = 75minutes)

Elemental Water dropped: : 7 (4%)

Toxic Horrors Killed: 104

Комментарий от fabflippintastic

Feralas. Sea spray and Sea Elementals, on the coastline by the boat to Feathermoon Stronghold. Killed all the mobs on the entire coastline, twice, not a single drop. Would not recommend.

Комментарий от Aneyhla

In Season of Mastery, i got one from some Stranglekelp. However the drop rate seems to be very low...

Комментарий от Guggenheim

As of Season of Mastery, Elemental Water can now be found in Stranglekelp
