How odd, I mined one of these In badlands and didnt get any ore.. Just 4 heavy stone.

Kommentar von Tw15t3d

In addition to Iron, a small to fair amount of Mythrill may be found both in the cave at Dry Whisker Gorge (North East Corner above Hammerfall), as well as the two ogre caves. On an average run, I've come out with 60+ Iron, 16+ Mythrill, and the occasional Silver, Gold, Truesilver. This comes in especially hand when trying to power level your mining and or Engineering/Smithing.

this is where i found iron deposits in 10 runs MAP(##RESPBREAK##)8##DELIM##hatman555##DELIM##Edited so it doesn't over run the page.

Western Plaguelands seems like a superior spot to farm Iron Ore in the new patch!

Kommentar von 716135

Well i've tried every place mentioned above and i find S. Barrens to be THE place.
Do a complete circuit, and then do it again and "everything" will have respawned.
Made a newbie Engineer VERY happy.

Kommentar von 638043

I can attest to Iralima's find....

i'm watching my buddy mine each node about 4-7 times

he's taking home in about an hour and a half about:

203 iron ore

215 heavy Stones

23 gold ore

and 11 gems

definitely a must-find

Kommentar von 449714

Wow, just found five nodes stacked ontop of eachother in Western Plaguelands... Hooray for insta-spawn rates!

EDIT

Umm ok, so I just did a round trip, back to this same node. Mined it six times for 19 Iron ore! O.O its on the very southern part of the border. 75.84. Hope it does the same for others!

Kommentar von 749723

I grinded for like 10-15min in feralas and got 4silver and 84 iron so i would say that is a really good place

Kommentar von Rabz

Another good place is in Eastern plaguelands, in Terrorweb Tunnel (4.4, 35.9).

If someone hasn't already cleaned it out, you can find several nodes in here, around 7-9.

Kommentar von 486737

I can say, with certainty, that Feralas is THE place to be for Iron Deposit. In 30 minutes, with Master Riding and a time of 01.35am, I have gathered over 133 Iron Ores. Along with that, I also came across 7 Gold Ore, 3 Truesilver Ore and 2 Silver Ore. This place is a goldmine for Iron and I thank the above comments for sending me here. :)

Kommentar von Namue

I haven't tried any other place since Cata dropped, but I can say that within ten minutes of flying around Feralas I got 3 stacks of 20 ore. Along with some gold, and some silk.
This was on my 76 pally w/ speed aura and guild speed buff. Still, you mine a node, take off, fly for a few seconds, and another is on your screen. I've only done the bottom half of Feralas so far.

Kommentar von coolyellow

Feralas is BEAST for iron. I started out at New Thalanaar and went counter-clockwise around the bottome section of the map (I used the route that wow-heads spawn location shows). I went around twice in about 45 minutes on a 150% flying mount. Here are my results:

204 Iron Ore
235 Heavy Stone
7 Gold Ore
4 Silver Ore
3 Jade
1 Lesser Moonstone

Kommentar von Neverknow

If you're planning to farm Iron ore, Thousand Needles is a perfect place now in Cata. Even though you can't fly there, there's a boat after a few quests to get you around fairly quick (that goes for people below level 60 / without flying mount / without Azeroth flying) but I suggest picking up the quest that gives you the water breathing / fast underwater movement buff. Al tough it's not as fast as flying, it's quick, saves you mounting up and swimming up-down again, and the best part, since a lot of people seem to think it's a horribly slow way of farming, there's literally nobody farming there.

Kommentar von Cisavexis

21 minutes of mining in Southern Barrens as a level 72 Paladin, without Pursuit of Justice, mostly without Crusader Aura, using 280% flying mount, got me:

100 iron ore
17 gold ore
2 silver ore
123 heavy stone
2 jade
2 lesser moonstone
1 aquamarine
1 citrine

Searching along all edges of the map, as well as in the crevices between Desolation Hold and Fort Triumph, and just west of Bael Modan.

Also under the effect of Bountiful Bags and Mount Up guild perks.

Kommentar von FuryWar

Strange to see Wowhead have only 4 spawns in the Badlands. The Badlands was the first place I ever saw an Iron deposit years ago, before Burning Crusade, so that was where my Miner/Blacksmith farmed all of his Iron in the early days. Other than the few spots shown on the Badlands map here, there should be at least a handful more throughout the zone. Much easier to find now that we can finally fly there! Good luck in your mining!

Kommentar von 98777

Time: About 40 minutes
Mount: Regular (not epic) flying
Zone: Desolace
Perks: Level 25 Guild - Bountiful Bags (GLevel 23 Perk)

Ore obtained in one round (complete route):

I use and strongly recommend the following addons for farming tradeskill materials:

Kommentar von Daisley

I must say, Feralas seems the place to go for Iron.
In 20 minutes, flying around with Bountiful Bags and Mount Up on a 280% flight speed mount, I got:

150 Iron Ore
171 Heavy Stone
4 Gold Ore
2 Jade
4 Citrine
1 Aquamarine
2 Lesser Moonstone

All of this in 20 minutes? Awesome huh!

Kommentar von 867532

I have to say I'm a big fan of western plaguelands for iron ore, its an easy circle to farm. I did one loop around and picked up,

113 x iron ore
141 x heavy stone
5 x Jade
1 x Lesser Moonstone
1 x Aquamarine
as well as a couple of gold spawns.

Kommentar von Measa

Feralas is a winner, I did a single circuit of the zone this morning to farm Iron. I got 218 Iron ore, 249 heavy Stone, as well as 4 Mithril Ore, 8 Solid Stone and 5 Gold Ore.
This does differ from a guldmate who hit the zone about a month ago around 7 PM server time and had trouble finding any nodes active.

Kommentar von 884771

confirmed made a complete trip around southern barrens got 47 iron ore,5 gold ore ,61 heavy stone and one citrine hope this helps

Kommentar von 590343

Are you an alliance character looking for Iron ore? Are you annoyed that the Western Plaguelands are to far from any blacksmith trainers? Go to The Cape of Stranglethorn. Here you will find Booty Bay with a blacksmith, forge, and anvil ready for your use.

Kommentar von Allyosaugh

Unfortunately, doesn't turn dark at night.

Kommentar von 933205

Multiple people have said this, and I'll say it again: FERALAS!
In about 20 minutes, I mined:
11 stacks of Iron ore--220 total, folks :O
260 heavy stone
5 Lesser Moonstone. This was definitely the highest rate drop for green gems.
4 Citrine, 1 Jade, 1 Moss Agate, 1 Aquamarine.
8 Gold
14 Silver

I remained in the northern half of the zone, and I only circled around the mountains. No fancy zig-zag routes. I used a 310% mount with Crusader aura (492% speed).

Call me a dork, but I had fun farming this. Spawns are fast and close together, and there's some varied scenery to look at while you're farming 600+ ore an hour. The other non-iron drops are also great for leveling BS with once you reach about 150 skill.
Happy farming! :D

Kommentar von 277610

For lower levelled alliance players I would recommend Western Plaguelands since it is easier to get to than Feralas.
I took one tour around the place on my level 50 warrior with 100% ground speed, it took about 15 minutes and I gathered a total of x86 Iron ores.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Get ur Arses to Arathi.
most Iron, Tin and silver ive ever seen.
ive seen about 1 mithril deposit and a gold deposit as i mined iron and tin....a bunch of silver too.

Kommentar von Thottbot

You need at least 125 mining skill to mine iron!

Kommentar von Thottbot

Zeshy, you say to get your Gold form the AH. You must be joking. On my sever (Arathor EU) one Gold Ore goes for 3-5 Gold.

I'll just keep looking and farming Iron - Badlands is best for that.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I actualy found an iron deposit in the wetlands.
Found it in Angerfang encampment.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Get the addon Gatherer shows Blooms, Veins and more!

I use it too :P

Kommentar von Thottbot

dude,i dont know what ur saying about stranglethorn being 13% its more like 100% i mined ablout 100 iron ore in about 10-25 mins.SV rocks!

Kommentar von Thottbot

another good spot for iron i found is thousand needles

Kommentar von Thottbot

who ever said STV is a good place for iron, not imo, i went there all i could find was tin in the nothern part and mithril in the southern part..sure there is iron eveyr now and then but mostly tin and mithril :(

Kommentar von Thottbot

According to the map above the best place to find Iron is Badlands. If there is any Iron in Azeroth it's bound to be there.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Great place is Arathi Headlands.... don't need to be very high a lvl to survive, and there's a huge amount of iron.

Kommentar von Thottbot

can someone link me the coords for the iron deposits or just tell me the place

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Just switched profs and took up Jewelcrafting so spend a lot of time mining.

For Iron, I found two areas to be good.

If you want to mine Iron and lower minerals such as tin and copper I would advise Thousand Needles. This is horde territory but they have one little camp there so easy to avoid. Also, it's a quiet area, I was the only one mining there both times I was there.

If you want to mine Iron and higher minerals such as Mithril I would also advise Arathi Highlands. If you're high enough lvl wise I would go into the caves as well. You can get Lesser Bloodstone Ore which is good to sell in the AH. Stay close to the foot of the mountain as most veins are there. I also got some of three rarer ores, Silver, Gold and Truesilver.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Lol
What chump got clam meat from an iron deposit?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

what level does it take to mine iron?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

If there are legendarys in iron what could be in thorium XD?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

You can farm this like crazy in Arathi. In about two hours late at night, I pulled in about 300 bars.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

PFFFFF mined my second sulfuras today ...... why cant i just get iron....

Kommentar von Allakhazam

iron is only 99% drop? wtf woulda thott it wud be 100%?

btw thundefury, sulfuras? allakhazam change it plz

Edited, Nov 24th 2007 5:20pm by Curtmaster

Kommentar von Allakhazam

lol legendary and epics found in deposits. i guesse its bliz's way of putting the mighty sword in the stone.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Every1 start farming this like mad maybe you got a chance to get a hand of ragnaros or maybe even a thunderfury!1!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I find the best way to farm this to be the following:

- Go to Arathi Highlands and visit the caves. (Click here to see entrances.)
- Start at the kobold cave by Hammerfall.
- Move to the Witherbark Cave.
- Then the ogre cave at 54,76.
- Then the other ogre cave by Refuge Pointe.

Then start again. Each cycle is enough time for Iron Deposit respawns.

You will also find Mithril, Gold and Silver very often and Truesilver from time to time.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Mined one up yesterday, but thought it was just lower then bag fodder, being orange, so I sort of vendored it. =/

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Well i hate to break it to you, but you CANT find a TF of Sulfuras in an iron Deposit. Those are allakhazam errors and anyone who expects to find one should stop looking. Besides. Blizz isnt stupid enough to put legendarys in iron. This isnt an argry comment. Its the truth.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

which is the best zone to farm iron?
and no i'm not interested in some stupid legendarys...

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I wish I was a miner, free Thunderfury :P

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I re-he-ealy dought that you can find one of the best weapons in the game fom and iron deposit is this actually posible or is it a glitch in there program or something beacause if it is possible im going be mining till im lvl 60 to get one. Lol imagine a lvl 30 mining a iron deposit and finding a epic 2H mace instead of iron ahhhh..one can only dream.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

im a gnome rogue and i Want THUNDER FURY BLESSED BLADE OF THE WIND SEEKER REALLY BAD!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

damn i keeping mining hand of rag! i need some iron

Kommentar von Allakhazam

think i'll clear up why it says epciks are found in iron depo's =P

people make illegal private servers where they can put whatever they want in whatever they choose e.g thunderfury in iron deposits - the allakhazam add-on takes info from charcters played on private servers aswell

so in other words the person who mined it was playing on a private server whych is why it show up ^^

hope that helps

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Anybody know a easy way for me to farm these? Like a place where i can just go back and forth to mine these

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Who doesn't get iron from an iron deposit? It has a 99% drop rate for iron.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

rofl...the thing says u can get thunderfury from this iron deposit...lol

Kommentar von Allakhazam

can you actually get ragnaros or thunderfury from iron deposoit

Kommentar von knotjad

Mining Iron requires level 125 skill.
After level 175, nodes become Green and will rarely level you up.
After level 225 skill, nodes become Gray and you will no longer gain skill level.

Kommentar von WokkaD

It seems that Ashenvale is not a good place to find ore nodes.
The Eisenvorkommen nodes are around, but I only found 3 in hours of searching.
2 were around 71 51 and the other at 63 60 (inside the cave).
I also found 1 Zinnader.

Kommentar von louied777

For anyone playing Classic who wants a "laid back" approach to farming these nodes
1. Park your miner in Weazel's Crater in the Shimmering Flats (1k Needles)
2. Mine any nodes in the crater
3. Log out
4. check back in 15 minute increments/whenever you've got 3 min to check

I'll usually hop onto alts, do a few quests, etc., or go make lunch, have a walk or whatever, then come back and there's almost always 2-3 nodes. Nice, laid back spot to farm.

Kommentar von gildagger

1K needles is NOT a good iron farming spot. First of all it is a LONG loop, and runs right through several centaur camps. Also, I just completed my farming run and here's what I got. 48 tin ore, 22 Copper ore, 8 silver (just rare tin veins) and 16 iron ore. If this was really an Iron zone I would have much more iron than anything else, not a bunch of tin and some worthless copper. Also, I skipped quite a few copper veins that weren't right in my path since they no longer grant skill points and don't sell for anything. I might try arathi next for iron.

Kommentar von Henderman

If you are playing cataclysm classic the only place you need to go is Feralas. Lots of nodes and all of them are iron.
