Where does it drop anyway? Anyone have any info?
Might be like a roflcoptor or carpet for alchemists by any chance?

According to MMO-champion, this recipe is learned upon discovery.
http://db.mmo-champion.com/i/65891/vial-of-the-sands/
Whether this is correct or not remains to be seen and as always, Blizzard could change how it is obtained.
Turns out they did change it!
Edit: As of 4.0.3b, the recipe is learned when you find it using archaeology. 450+ arch is required and the produced vial is now BoE making it the alchemy equivalent of the chopper/Mechano hog. As this is not classified as a flask, elixer or transmutation, it will not be subject to any of those specializations and I look forward to maxing archaeology trying to find this.
Edit^2: 4 years later, I've quit wow after having never found this. This was in my opinion, the worst RNG dependent drop to have ever been implemented in the game.

I would like to say that Nathanvel was correct
The people that downrated him were too lazy to look for themselves.

It applies the mounted buff
then applies the model change

29,000 Gold for vendor mats (Goblin Discount confirmed to work - 23,200g)
I am guessing another 20-30k for other mats.
*NOTE:
You need 450 Archeology to obtain the recipe, and it is extremely RNG. I have heard it was obtained with an alchemy skill as low as 225, though it requires 525 to make.
(Approximate odds)
13% Chance to get a Tol'Vir digsite in Uldum (you need 3-4 to complete a
Canopic Jar
)
12% Chance to be working on a
Canopic Jar
10% Drop rate of the recipe out of a
Canopic Jar
So assuming you get 1 Tol'Vir digsite every 30 min and about a 0.15%* chance of getting this for every 3-4 digsites.
We are talking about an average 1200** hours of archeology. This does seem a bit high, so I am hoping the rates I have are wrong. Please post if you have better data on the rates.
*.13x.12x.1=.00156
**30x3.5/.0015/60 =1166

Not necessarily 24,000g. If you're guild is at
Level 24
it will reduce the price down to 21,600 gold. And if
Yasmin
is affiliated with a Reputation, and you get to Exalted with them, that would bring the price of 8
Sands of Time
down to 16,800. Of course, we don't know whether she is or not, we'll see how it all plays out.
TL;DR: To make
Vial of the Sands
, you may only need
16,800 Gold
to get the 8
Sands of Time
, instead of
24,000g
.

This comes from the
Canopic Jar
, a Tol'Vir common item. The Canopic Jar is now a white quality item, so it shouldn't escape your attention so easily.
There is a total of sixteen (16) Tol'vir digsites (up from the previous nine) in the game, all located on Kalimdor (Uldum) and you can only start getting Uldum excavation opportunities after hitting 450 Archaeology. The recipe will only drop for Alchemists, is not a guaranteed drop and is Bind on Pickup, however the mount associated with it (
Vial of the Sands
) is not. Given the rarity of Tol'Vir excavation points (~16/56) you're going to be flying around Kalimdor a *lot*. Non-mages, utilize your hearths as best as you can; the major home cities have their respective ports to Hyjal and Uldum.
Horde, I advise using your hearth to Orgrimmar when you have 3 or more projects in the northern zones (Ashenvale and up) and grabbing a
Ring of the Kirin Tor
so you can use the Caverns of Time portal in the Violet Citadel. This gives you mobility all over the continent on very short cooldowns.
Alliance can use Stormwind as their home point to fulfill the same purpose as Org (port to Hyjal for the north digs).
This task is RNG (project) wrapped in RNG (dig site) coated with RNG (pleasedeargoddroptherecipe), but with the changes that've been made to Archeology (
3-6
UPDATED* fragments (at max level) per successful survey) it should be a little more bearable. Even with these changes, this is a task only for the patient.
Good luck, guys.
The digsites are:
Ruins of Khintaset, Temple of Uldum, Ruins of Ahmtul, Orsis, Ruins of Ammon, Halls of Origination (North), Halls of Origination (South), Khartut's Tomb, Neferset, River Delta, Cursed Landing, Keset Pass, Akhenet Fields, Obelisk of the Stars, Sahket Wastes, Schnottz's Landing

It's smart loot, so it'll only drop for players that actually have alchemy.

Can we assume that if you have high enough alchemy and construct the Canopic Jar that it's 100% chance? or is there still some sort of drop rate associated with this? (sorry if it's a dumb question, I just don't want to get my hopes up once i finally start constructing one... especially considering how many other obstacles there are in getting the mount.)

I personally think the recipe should be bind on account, if your alchemist is not your main, it would take forever to level archeology a second time and who wants to do that?

A Handy Guide for those who haven't started Archaeology:
Training Arch allows you to see Dig Sites on the two old world continents.
There will always be 4 Dig Sites on a continent at any given time
Once you mine out a dig site it respawns at a randomly selected location on that continent
The Canopic Jar that drops this recipe is completed from Tol'vir Digsites
Tol'vir dig sites are only in Uldum, and require a skill of 450 to spawn
There are about 6 Tol'vir dig sites and 54 across all of Kalimdor, meaning when you mine out a Kalimdor dig site it has a 1/12 chance of spawning a Tol'vir dig site
There are now 16 Tol'vir dig sites in Uldum, out of 69 in Kalimdor, and which contain 9 to 18 fragments
As of 4.1(?) dig sites spawns are now weighted based on whether or not you have any remaining rares to be completed. For Canopic Jar farming this usually means,the spawn chance of night elf dig-sites will be lowered once you complete all of their artifacts, causing your digsites to be significantly more focused in southern Kalimdor, reducing travel time. This benefit is largely lost - however- once you complete the fossil rares; equalizing your fossil and nelf spawn rates.
The Jar is one of 7 common Tol'vir artifacts requiring 45 fragments each to complete, you will not be able to get repeats until you've completed them all once
The Canopic Jar has a, currently unknown, % chance to drop the recipe. Most reports are of people not getting it on the first or second try, so likely less than 50%. Your mileage may vary, I gave up after 28.
Now that you know what your in for, have fun!
EDIT: updated with current numbers for dig sites and the new fragment drop rate
EDIT 2: reupdated dig site counts, and added bullet point about spawn rate changes in 4.1

costs to made overall ~72.000 (30k must buy NPC goods - rest buying stuff from the ah)
NO cooldown ... and tradeable... and useable for every race and for every profession - you dont have to be an alchemist

Rare drop
from a
rare drop
from 45
archeology fragments
. It is likely that Blizzard outdid themselves with this mount. I find it an interesting dynamic when comparing the amount of time farming gold (mats) and the amount of time needed to farm a raid that this mount is the lonely man's path to epeen flailing that you mostly only see with the hardcore raiding guilds doing end game heroic raids. The difference...BoE! Now people can pay you for epeen! The alchemist that has this recipe will be quite famous on your server.
I apologize if this question has been answered, I'm editing an older post.
QUESTION:
Can non-alchemists get this recipe drop? (Obviously they can't use and it's BoP, I'm just wondering if a temporary trade skill swap may occur)
I see now that the question has been answered, seemingly (according to posts) you must be an alchemist to have this item drop...effectively lowering/raising it's drop rate significantly, depending on how you factor alchemists vs everyone else looting jars

It really would have made more sense for this to be a reward for an achievement (
this
seems like a good candidate) like certain cloaks in WotLK. As it is now it's far too random.
I got my first Canopic Jar on Sunday, now four days later I finally got a second one. Both without a recipe. I like to think I have more patience than most, but I can't stand the thought of four more days of spending all my in-game time doing archaeology for another
chance
of seeing this drop.
I've decided to give up for now (yes, QQ) and wait for someone luckier than me to get the recipe so I can pay them to craft the vial for me instead.

Got the
Canopic Jar
today.
No recepie inside :( Just a gray item.
My skill in Alchemy and Archaeology is 525 so no trouble there. Just bad luck.
"Just" have to wait until I can solve it again.
Should you have enough Tol'vir points to solve the Canopic Jar and not be at max Alch or Arch lv I suggest you wait with the solving. The excess solving points will be transfered to the next solvable item ... and the next ...
I've had Night Elf at 190/35 and that just meant I could solve five artifacts in a row.

The spawning of more than 3 fragments per dig sped up the Tol'Vir hunt quite a bit.
I'm just opened my third Canopic Jar, to find my third mummyfied organ... frustrating.
I'm now at 12 grey items and the epic ring solved so far.
If you're not a mage, optimize your routes using the Hyjal and Uldum portals from your capital.

Anyone know if you need to have Alchemy as a profession in order for this to drop? I would much rather farm for this until I actually find it prior to dropping a 525 profession, as opposed to dropping a 525 profession, leveling alchemy and never actually finding it.
If so, have there been any blue posts regarding this, or is there any proof?

While it may or may not require being an Alchemist to receive the recipe, my Alchemy was only at 450 when I got the recipe in my 2nd jar. So you don't have to stress about maxing out your Alchemy before opening your jars.

This mechanic is incredibly frustrating.
I got no recipe from my first jar, and I am on my 9th common since completing one of each of the 7 Tor'Vir commons, none of which have been a second jar. I have done 3-4 of a bunch of others but no jar. I estimate that I have farmed 150 + 12 x 45 fragments since my first and only jar thus far...
I am starting to get very very very annoyed with Blizzard.
Oh, and I'm sitting on all the mats as well :(

YAY! i have farmed archeology for the last 2-3 days and today i got skill enough to get Tol'vir artifacts the reason i farmed this was because of the alchemy mount witch comes from a recipie in a jar which can when you appear when you solve Tol'vir artifacts (Uldum only)
when the Jar finally apeared i ofc farmed till i got it and when i opened the recipie was in! I have prob been extreemly lucky to get this in first Jar and i have no idea if theres any other on my server who also have it, now i have started my farming on mats for the mount and hopefully ill get this mount in a few days.

I have opened 5 jars so far and all of which did not contain the recipe. It took more than 100 hours already just to get my 5 jars. It seems the drop rate is not that great after all.
edit1: 6th jar still no recipe.
edit2: 9th jar still no recipe. about 130 hours of digging now. can this get any more retarded?
edit3:10th jar still no recipe (this jar alone took a little more than 20 hours).
edit4: 11th jar no recipe. stopped counting hours. Completed a total of 77 commons and 3 rares for tol'vir. Currently have 11829 nelf fragments, 4946 fossil, and 1407 troll with everything in those race obtained.
edit5: 12th jar finally got the recipe. total time spent on getting this recipe is probably in the 300 hrs zone.

So I've read a bunch on this and everywhere people are saying "yes you need max alch" "No you don't" etc etc. Does anybody know if your Archaeology has to be maxed, or can it be obtained without the 525? I'm around 476 right now, and my first Tol`vir artifact is a Canopic Jar. Kinda scared to solve it though since my archaeology isn't maxed. I'd hate to open it just to find out later that Archaeology HAS to be at 525 =/

As soon as I hit 450 on my Archaeology I went to Kalimdor and started to farm sites there to get Uldum ones to appear, my second item was the Canopic Jar and I got the recipe first try.
to CheezeBurga, I dont know if having 525 Alchemy matters or not, but if it does, it would make sence as getting this recipe reminds me of getting recipes for cooking, they drop of mobs sometimes in raids, but not unless your someone in that raid that needs it and can learn it i.e. has the lvl requirement to learn it so it appears.
Also reminds me of the heavy frostweave book in Wrath , couldn't get it to happen as a drop until you have the required lvl of first aid.
My Alchemy btw is 525 and I had it done first before leveling up my Archaeology so that might hold true, it would make sence. That or I just got damn lucky getting it on my first try.

Is this really BoP this recipe? Cause I've been levelling Arch to get my friend his cause he hates it, and in return he'll make me a Vial after his own. Can I not find this? Cause that'd be REALLY stupid of them to do, force people to level a prof they don't like to get theirs....

I first started taking alchemy because I heard of this "alchemy exclusive" mount. After getting my Alchemy to 525, I figured out that the mount became BOE instead of just for alchemists, which made it "just another pricy mount". Kind of took away from it's luster, but then again, still worth getting, so I set out to farm the recipe. I am now 5 jars in, with no recipe. While other professions have been getting cool "exclusive" to that profession mounts, (i.e. magic carpets and the turbo-charged flying machine, WoW have blessed alchemists this expansion with a "headache" while trying to track down the recipe for the vial. Thanks Blizz.

Sitting on about 2k fossil and 5k Night Elf fragments without any use, scared to even think about the time I've spent on this (way beyond the point I can just give up).
Honestly I would be very surprised if Blizzard didn't do something to make it easier to obtain.
oh, and there are 9 Tol'Vir digsites and for Alliance it's probably a good idea to put Hearthstone in Stormwind for the Hyjal and Uldum portals

WARNING:
The following claims are in no way to be taken as "If I get 1000 digsites I am gaurenteed this recipe." That is stupid. Please, please, please, please don't call gambler's fallacy because it is irrelevant. I have put quite a bit of thought into my algorithms and the function of this simulation is an accurate model given the assumptions I have presented. The simulation was a console program written in C#.
Since I am a nerd I decided to make a
simulation
to figure out how many dig sites it will take
on average
to receive this item.
Simulation Conditions:
There were 10,000 players.
All Dwarves.
Each player has completed EVERY rare artifact, and when the simulation began had a 1/7th chance of having the canopic jar in their journal.
Each player started with 0 tol'vir fragments
The simulation was conducted 100 times, and the results averaged.
Each player gave up after surveying 10,000 dig sites.
Every player stopped after recieving the pattern.
Fairly reasonably understood assumptions that this simulation makes:
There are 54 dig sites in Kalimdor and 6 Tol'Vir dig sites. There is an equal probability of getting any dig site no matter the race or position on map. Dig sites are chosen after the digsite has been cleared and it is equally possible to get the same digsite as it is any other unoccupied digsite.
There is an equal chance of getting 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7 (dwarf bonus) fragments with each loot.
Each player used as many keystones as possible from looting artifacts.
Each player has completed every rare artifact, and thus will only receive common artifacts.
It is possible to get the same artifact twice in a row and there is a 1/7 chance of getting the canopic jar.
Every player attempted to maximize the chance of recieving a tol'vir digsite by always digging up a tolvir digsite when one appeared.
Some bold assumptions I made on the nature of drop rates:
This recipe has a 15% drop rate from the canopic jar regardless of level. Current data on drop rate is not statistically accurate so your guess is as good as mine. This seemed reasonable to me.
Keystones are a 10% drop from each fragment cache. Whatever. I'll do some testing and see what I can come up with.
My results were as follows:
Successfull finds:
99.99%
(out of 1,000,000 players, some gave up after 10,000 dig sites.)
1107.5 dig sites surveyed on average.
This is about three times as many digsites as it takes to get from 1-525 archaeology. Prepare to spend a long time farming this one, folks.
These figures could be wildly inaccurate. I had to make some big assumptions with drop rates because nobody has any data. I might make a histogram or some other fancy stats once I find better data on things like drop rates. I would like to remind anybody who feels an urge to comment to read the disclaimer and the entire post before commenting, for pete's sake.

Archaeology does NOT need to be maxed, I just got this on my alchemist tonight (valkiyre, Sisters of Elune realm) at 501 skill. My alchemy was maxed,. though others have said alchemy also doesn't need maxed.
From reading everything, I got very very very lucky, my second Tol'Vir dig started the jar, and about 4 hours later I completed it and got the recipe.
I also had an exceptionally horrible rare creation rate from archaeology prior to getting it - either it was making up for lost time, or I just used up all my luck for a year.

Something to take note of if you are an aspiring Alchemist trying to raise archaeology for this recipe.
Don't get discouraged by the increasingly declining drop percentage of this item. Wowhead does and always has collected data from anybody who submits it, as well as all other database-oriented websites. What this means is that the data recorded for the pattern not only includes canopic jar uses for 450+ archaeologists who also have 450+ alchemy, but alchemist/archaeology combinations whose profession levels are too low for discovering this recipe. In addition to that, the data collected also includes jar uses by people who have neither profession and have 0% chance of finding this recipe.
Don't let numbers on this site discourage you from trying for this recipe.
As it stands, I'm one of the few who are having rediculously terrible luck finding this. With all the research I've done, from people who have reported actually finding this pattern, the drop chance is closer to 10-15%.
However, so far for Tol'Vir I have crafted:
Rares
Ring of the Boy Emperor
Pendant of the Scarab Storm
Commons
1x - Tiny Oasis Mosaic (am currently working on my 2nd as I type this)
1x - Engraved Scimitar Hilt
2x - Sketch of a Desert Palace
3x - Castle of Sand
3x - Cat Statue with Emerald Eyes
6x - Soapstone Scarab Necklace
6x - Canopic Jar
These numbers, now that I've laid them out, seem very depressing. But I'm still trying for it. If I manage to find it before someone else in my guild gets it out of their first jar (which will be my luck), I will edit my post with new numbers.
Edit #1
: I'm now up to 7 soapstone necklaces, 4 cat statues, 2 mosaics. Completed 3 more artifacts with no luck, currently working on yet another cat figurine.
I have 2345 night elf fragments that I can't use because I have all the night elf rares. I also have 1077 fossil fragments that I can't use either.
Still no new jar.
Starting to lose hope.
Edit #2
: FINALLY got this out of my 7th jar.
As it stands I've made 30 commons, 7 of which were jars, and 2 Tol'Vir rares. But, before you look at that and say "she was effing lucky" let me put it into perspective.
It generally took me 4-5 hours to get a single dig site in Uldum the last 2 weeks. I've completed a total of 3 artifacts in the last week alone.
I have over 11 days played at level 85, and at least 7 of those were solely spent farming this pattern. So, over 200 hours played time invested in this item.
Was it worth it? Hell yes. If you really want this mount, be persistent.
I currently have 2968 night elf fragments, have farmed over 60 night elf keystones, and have 1490 fossil fragments. Lots of work, lots of time, lots of torture >_o

SO unlike EVERYTHING else where they made it bind on account so as not to needlessly cruel being that this method of getting stuff is just too much to do twice.. For this one item they made an exeption to be mean.
That's simply taking 40hours game time from players for ne other reason than a tick box somewhere wasn't ticked. It's be stupid if It stays like this!
I pity the RP'ers who have to somehow marry this into play.

Have leveled Archeology to max on my druid and started farming for the recipe the instant i hit 450.
Got my first Uldum digsite after about 45 mins of clearing fossils and NE sites.
This was about a week ago.
Current findings:
Rare
Pendant of the Scarab Storm (4th)
Ring of the Boy Emperor (12th)
Common
Cat Statue with Emerald Eyes (1st)
Castle of Sand (2nd)
Canopic Jar (3rd, 9th, 11th)
Soapstone Scarab Necklace (5th)
Sketch of the Desert Palace (6th, 10th!)
Tiny Oasis Mosaic (7th, 14th
- In progress
)
Engraved Scimitar Hilt (8th, 13th)
Total Hieroglyphs:
15
Statistics:
(excl. Hieroglyphs)
(closed)
Digisites
31
Fragments
417
Avg Frag/site
13,5
Conclusion:
No recipe yet, but I dont expect anything before 3-5 jars. Scarab pendant as the first rare, the most useless of the rares from Tol'vir, lovely :)
Update (a):
Been getting very frequent spawns, even had a triple proc on a Tol'vir site (
proccing another site in Uldum
). Was fortunate to get 4 hieroglyphs over 3 sites. And currently on the 2nd jar with hopes up. RNG can be your enemy or your friend.
Update (b):
I Consider myself pretty fortunate to get 2 jars within 3 solves, lets see if the 3rd wont bear fruit. Fragment/site seems steady atm. Average time between spotted sites has been approximately 15 minutes.
To Be Continued...

My math said that after 17 jars you have a 50% chance that the recipe is in one of them:
Coin flip has a probability that heads appears in 50% the flips. The probability of not flipping a head in two tosses is .5x.5 or 1/4, in 3 tosses it's .5x.5x.5 or .5^3 which equals 1/8. The probability for heads not showing up in n number of tosses is .5^n
The probability of the recipe not being in the jar is 96% assuming the 4% above is accurate. So the same thing applies to the drop rate .96^n = the probability of it not being in any of those jars. If you want to know what n is for a percentage, then type this into a calculator: (log )/(log .96) this will give you n or the number of jars required to open. Lol sorry if this is a bit technical.

Has anyone been lower than level 85 when they found the recipe? Because some people have found it immediately & others have opened many jars without finding it, it makes me wonder if you need alchemy as a profession AND level 85.

You do not need to be 85 to find the recipe.
You do not need to have 525 archaeology to find the recipe, only above 450.
You do not need to have 525 alchemy to find the recipe.

I got Canopic Jar on my 1st, 3rd, 6th, and 8th common artifact drop with no recipe yet. Almost like looking at the numbers on a Powerball Ticket and seeing that 4 of your numbers on it matches today's winning numbers, and then realizing that you are looking at last month's Powerball Ticket. =/
I hope your have better luck with the RNG God then I have with the recipe.
EDIT: Got my recipe on my 6th Jar last night. =D But my buddy got in his 2nd jar a few days ago. =/ Oh well. No more farming for the recipe.

Ok so after i leveled my main to level 85, and blizz changed the mount to be boe, i quickly started to level ONLY archaeology on my hunter (level 80). I leveled to 450 on Eastern Kingdom, and a bit on Outland because digging up and down drove me nuts. When i hit 450 i started to dig up Kalimdor (this was on 23th of dec). By the time my hunter became 82.5, remember, ONLY by digging.
Now, my hunter is level 85 (still, only by digging), and no recipe yet. 5 level, 9+5+2+1.6 million xp only by digging (not rested xp, normal), and no recipe.
I got :
3 canopic jar,
2 rare (scarab storm pendant, ring of the boy emperor in progress atm)
2 soapstone necklace
2 cat statue
2 castle of sand
1 tiny mosaic
3 scimitar hilt
3 sketch
When i started this project NOONE on my realm had idea about the mount, about the recipe, and how to get the recipe. I wanted to be the first, i have 100+ hour in this, and i'm very disappointed.
My digging tactic is this:
dig from up to down till i get 4 uldum digsite, then dig those, rinse and repeat. I have almost all night elf rares, plenty of repeats of course, and my bag is full of fossil stuff too :)

Farming for this has made me an angry person.
So far, 30 Tol'Vir commons completed, only 3 of which were jars, obviously none containing the recipe.
4 Rares completed, though this includes the battle tank, which is at least consolation.
However, I do not recommend anyone pick up this terrible profession. The rewards really aren't worth it, (though nothing in this game really feels that way anymore) and you spend so much time digging up worthless ^&*! (hello fossil/troll/470000nightelffragmentsomfgkillmenow still no doll srsly?) you can't get anything else productive accomplished.
Oh and I've wasted about 10,000 gold on Tol'Vir Hieroglyphics. (@800 a piece)

Recipe Drop received with the following facts:
Recipe was inside the first Canopic Jar solved, though other posts suggest that this is not a common drop as they have solved multiple Canopic Jars with no recipe inside.
Archaeology was maxed at 525, however Alchemy was only at 510 at the time of the find.
Total Artifacts solved:
Dwarf: 5
Fossil: 28 (mount and pet found)
Night Elf: 86 (all rares found except trinket)
Tol'vir: 6 (1 rare Pendant of the Scarab Storm found)
Troll: 12
All leveling and otherwise was done completely on Kalimdor. At no time did I travel to any of the other continents or zones.
I was exceedingly lucky in this drop, I squeed both IRL and over chat to various friends for a good 20 minutes or so. Good luck and happy hunting to you all who are also searching for this elusive recipe. Should also be noted that my toon is an 85 priest. No summoning or porting tricks. I did most of this strictly through use of flight points and the occasional hearth. Archaeology maxed 525 on December 25th 2010. Recipe dropped a week and a day later. I don't know how many hours I have put into this project, but a good portion of my wow time since I hit 85 (in the first week of release) has been dedicated to this rather then instancing or leveling one of my other toons. And I'm not done! I have a bunch of rares that I still need to dig up...now however I can be a little more picky with which continents I can go to.

(hello fossil/troll/470000nightelffragmentsomfgkillmenow still no doll srsly?)
haha I had to smile about this
sorry for you, but it is good to be around people feeling the same way finding the recipe
share the madness :-)
I started bravely with this mission, having alot of time consuming achievements already (Loremaster pre-cata, pets (whelps) and many fishing achievements)
To tell you the truth after 8 common Tol'vir artifacts (1 jar) and 1 rare (scarabs) the fellowship is already breaking apart.
My mind is telling me to farm the 8k gold. That is the amount Alchemists are asking to craft the drake on my realm.
With almost all dwarf, NE and troll rare artifacts in the bag (Zinrokh and Tyrande's doll) this mission is becoming more boring and time consuming than it already is. No I didn't do The Insane and probably never will.
What makes this mission even more difficult is that you're flying around digging for the recipe, your guildies are doing fun stuff (heroics, pvp, getting epic gear).
Ofcourse never forget your goal. The mount will feel better if you craft it yourself, you raise your reputation on the realm and your guildies favor your forever when you craft this baby for free.
When you find this recipe, you will fall asleep with a very big satisfied smile on your face. Happy as a little child on christmas evening.

I only leveled my archaeology for that recepie. It took LOADS of time, but eventually it is rewarding. My advice is dig only in EK whie you reach max levels, because you will hate it if you are all the time on Kalimdor. It is a bit easier for a mage, since we can teleport and set HS in the middle of the continent.
My recepie was in the 3d Canopic Jar, until I got that one I solved almost all the common Tol'vir twice, so it took forever. In meantime I got every single Night elf rare....besides the intellet trinket of course... would be too much :D
But dig dig dig dig and you will get it!

8 jars, still no recipe.
210 night elf solves, still no trinket.
i'm beginning to wonder if there is some sort of bug for some people that causes their odds to get this thing to be way lower or something. Seeing people talk about "finally" getting it after 2 or 3 solves is very upsetting, considering the trouble some of us are having :(
Oh, and Rekra: Nice trolling with that. There's no need to come in here and basically taunt people who have made a ton of crap and still not gotten it.

I got a shocking drop of this recipe today. I've had the
Canopic Jar common
artifact come up before and didn't get squat from it. So, just for fun, once i got the Tol'vir runes to solve for the jar, I flew down into Uldum to the
Cradle of the Ancients
(~43,72) and solved this Jar there. I almost crapped my pants when this recipe dropped out. I had to reread it twice before the shock wore off.
I have no idea if this really works or if i was just really really lucky... :) A confirmation would be nice... :)

I am an Alchemist and this has dropped from the first Jar I opened. I'm not sure if the other people farming jars are alchemist, but I know the droprate reported by Wowhead will be skewed by two things:
1) people who already have the recipe opening the jars
2) people who are not alchemist opening the jars

You are quite correct Kolenka. I was one of those lucky few that received the recipe out of the first Canopid Jar solved. I have solved a total of
6 Tol'Vir artifacts
. 4 commons, number 5 was the Scarab Pendant, number 6 was the Canopic Jar which contained my recipe.
The canopic jar itself is
not considered a rare artifact
. The recipe while it is an epic item does
not
count in the archeology achievements for rare finds, confirmed when I opened the jar and learned it with
9/10
rares already found for the
"I Had It in My Hand"
achievement and the
Assistant Professor Title
. The achievement
did not
complete. I would think it is on a different scale then the rest of the rare items and I don't see how solving rares in Tol'Vir would affect the frequency rate of the drop except for furthering along the cycle of items queueing up to get to the next Canopic Jar.
It appears to be completely random. Some get it off the first jar they open, some of the third or fourth, some are on their 15th jar and still have not seen the recipe, assuming those opening 15+ jars are also alchemists and have a chance to see the recipe. I've corrected multiple people complaining about not finding the recipe on my server who were all fired up about leveling archeology in hopes to get this recipe drop so they could exploit alchemists and sell it for thousands of gold on the AH. I burst their bubbles informing them a) recipe was BOP and b) smart loot.
While it requires max alchemy to learn, you do
*not*
have to have max alchemy to see the drop as My Alchemy was 510 at the time of the find. Unknown if someone who has just trained but not leveled the alchemy is still able to see the drop or not.
I posted this above but I think people may have marked as negative and 'unhelpful' out of spite *because* I got it in my first drop. Apologies to all of you who may have seen it as me trolling because of my luck. I am by no means trying to cheapen anyone's hard work trying to locate this recipe but the good luck drops are just as meaningful as the ones that take forever in figuring out the statistics and drop rates. If it makes you all feel any better, I still haven't seen the darn Nelf Trinket. :P

Here's my pain...
2 days, 20 hours played since I hit 425. At that point I used all the dwarf artifacts that I saved; I saved them all, hoping for the staff. That would have made this a little less painful...
I have all the NE rares.
I have solved 30 Tol'Vir artifacts, 2 of which were the Pendant and Ring. 5 of which were jars... each of course contained remains.
My alchemy was at 525 before picking up Archaelogy and of course, I was at 525 in Arch after discovering all the dwarf artifacts.
So the two items I'm after, the recipie and staff have not been seen yet...
Sigh... I'll up date late... I have some holes to dig.
Anyone else saving the fossil and N Elf in case they add more items later? :)
Also, I have 3366 N Elf pieces and 1418 Fossil saved...
I just completed the current artifact I was on when I orginally posted and the next was a jar... keep your fingers crossed for me :)
Well.... jar # 6 and another mummified organ.... but the next artifact... another jar. 2 in a row. Now they are starting to tease me...
Jar # 7.... mummified Organ...
Jar # 8... and yes, you guessed it.... mummified organ...
Up to 44 Tol'Vir artifacts, no more jars in the last 8 hours or so and my new artifact is The Scepter of Azj'Aquir.... Just what I wanted... NOT. Now 150 more pieces until the next... sigh.
After getting The Scepter artifact, I spent 6 hours without one Tol'Vir dig site.... After finally completing it the next item was the cat's eye...
After that, I received my 9th Jar... 3 days, 8 hours played of nothing but digging and finally... I received the recipe! No god damn more digging! Well, until I get a hair up my *** and want to work on the dwarven staff.
I was about to give up, but with the time invested so far, that wasn't an option.
The nicest thing about it... is now I can actually start playing the game and enjoying it :)
For the others out there... good luck! It's a long, boring road... unless you get lucky like some. But it's out there... What's a little tunnel carpel syndrom for a nice mount? :)
Also, this was completed on a mage... and I have 5642 N Elf pieces and 2334 fossil saved up after getting all their associated rares... just to give you an idea of how many sites I had to touch...

I had 4 Canopic Jars sitting in my bank that I finished before ever learning alchemy, today I decided to drop mining and train alchemy-- When my skill was 516 I remembered I had them in my bank and decided to open them and on the 2nd jar I got the recipe... So if you don't have alchemy but you have the jars hold on to them just in case you decide to take up alchemy someday.

By the way anyone brought this up on Blizzard forum? I mean if this recipe/mount is like Chopper was in Wotlk, this should not be soooo grindy. A bit grindy is ok, but many of us has 100+ hours in this project, where the mount was bop by default, and only the vendor parts are 30k (plus 24 flask + 12 truegold)

Here's my tally:
Canopic Jar: 8th contained recipe!
Castle of Sand: 5
Cat Statue with Emerald Eyes: 6
Engraved Scimitar Hilt: 3
Sketch of a Desert Palace: 2
Soapstone Scarab Necklace: 8
Tiny Oasis Mosaic: 3
Pendant of the Scarab Storm
Ring of the Boy Emperor
All Night Elf and Fossil artifacts (including rares)
Also, it's worth pointing out -- you must be
at least
level 80 before dig sites will appear in Uldum and Mount Hyjal. I leveled alchemy to 525 as soon as I hit level 75 and started digging in Kalimdor with no luck. I finally put in a ticket and the GM confirmed that level 80 is a requirement for those dig sites.

Note: This is in reply to a deleted post, but I'm leaving it since it does respond to a common counterargument. Essentially, this is a reply to the belief that "anyone who farmed the recipe did it to get the mount for themselves, so the horrible grind was so THEY could have a mount. Any mounts they make after that is free and no effort, it's greedy and inconsiderate to charge money to make it, and if you do want money then a small tip should be enough!"
I can see your point, but you're still making a lot of assumptions.
Personally, I've been farming (at 2-5 hours/day, every day, for two weeks) the mount not for myself, but because I'd like to be able to sell it and make a profit. Between the keystones I've found and used instead of selling, and the keystones I've bought just to use, I've probably sunk about 20k gold into the grind so far. I also picked up and maxed alchemy
just
for this, which was another 10k gold.
When you also consider the amount of money I could've made if I hadn't been farming for the recipe, but instead grinding other things, doing dailies, and playing the AH then I'm down
much
more than a mere 20-30k. This is my only character on this realm, and I don't have any casters -- In this entire grind, I've yet to find a single rare piece of equipment I can actually use. If I had spent all this time doing heroics, I'd be fully geared and ready for raiding by now. Instead, I'm still wearing a lot of the quest greens I first dinged 85 with.
You also need to remember that this mount isn't something necessary for normal play, it is purely a status symbol -- the entire
point
of a status symbol is that they're hard to get. In this it's hard to get because it costs a lot of money.
After all this, I'm still no closer today to finding the recipe than I was two weeks ago. Random drops are random, and I've spoke to several people who got the recipe in their first jar since I began this ordeal. You say it's greedy to want a big tip for this, but you really need to consider the time invested against that. You said that being considerate to your fellow wow player is more important than greed: but which fellow player are you considering?
After investing virtually all of my free time for two weeks on this grind just in order to make money, someone certainly isn't being considerate to
me
by selling the mount so cheap that, at the end of the grind, the entire thing has been nothing but a fantastic waste of time and gold. They're not being very considerate to the people who grinded the mount themselves, either -- suddenly their unique status symbol has been reduced to something much more common, much easier to get.
True, 3k gold is a tidy profit on making the mount. But you also need to consider that a lot of the people who wanted the mount already have it, and there aren't infinite customers in line to buy from you. I doubt someone who finds the recipe today will be able to sell very many mounts, to be honest. At 3k gold each, it could take many months before a newcomer has made enough money in tips to even recoup the cost (both in burned keystones and wasted time) of getting the recipe in the first place. It's not greedy to want to break even faster than that, it's
human
. The person you bought the mount from probably either got very lucky and didn't have to grind for their recipe, or they got it so long ago they made hundreds of thousands of gold selling it early on and are now trying to undercut newcomers to drive them away.

I can say the myth about "You will not get any repeats unless you complete every common artifact for that skill level for any given race." Is not true. As others have stated I have gotten repeats before I've solved every single grey in a given tier.
I think that it isnt myth. All think about just races but there are also level tiers for some races. In case of tol'vir or nerubian or orc it doesnt matter because they are 300-375, 375-450 or 450-525 but NE or Troll (fossil and dwarf too ofc) have less commons 1-300 level and once you reach 450+ (maybe also for other levels not just 450) you open new commons. You may see these common having requirement of more fragments and having 2 slots for keystone, lower level common needed like just 30 fragments and had no keystone or just one slot for it. Thats probably why you get repeats and still dont had all commons solved. Same apply for rares i dont think you can get NE rare trinket below 450 as you cant get those higher commons.
Until will someone confirm of getting repeat on tol'vir common (which is top tier currently) before getting all 7 commons i ll take this as truth. Repeats on NE arent real proof because of those level tiers.
In my case i had exactly 7 commons tol vir in row. One of each ofc no luck for recipe :( and now, solved another 20 commons including 2 tol vir rare and still no canopic jar repeat.

Thanks for your replies, I do take some comfort in knowing I'm not the only one going through this, I was starting to think my game was bugged or something lol. I opened my first Canopic jar before I had gotten the Boy who would be king achievement, had I'd known it was a requirement to get the recipe I prob would have waited to solve it, but I'm not sure if that would have made a difference.

Maxed Alch 525, Arch 525, have Ring of the Boy Emperor, Scarab Necklace... Just opened my 5th Canopic Jar to find nothing in it....
The worst part is after seeing the Jar was the common item, it took literally 4 straight hours of digging to get a single Uldum site to pop.... Finally some did and I completed it to find nothing yet again....
Stats are as follows so far:
3 Castle of Sand
5 Cat Statue with Emerald Eyes
4 Tiny Oasis Mosaic
5 Soapstone Scarab Necklace
2 Sketch of a Desert Palace
5 Canopic Jars
12 Engraved Scimitar Hilt
3726 NE pieces unused
1520 Fossil Unused
This grind is the worst I have done in my gaming history... It takes a special person to keep at this with anything over 5 jars completed with no success... The RGN system has no garauntees no matter how much time you put into it... That is the SCARY part... I have to be honest in that I am struggling to continue with the same focus... When I see people looted this in one or two jars I realize it could possibly be 20+ jars with no success with this system in place...!
Fix:
My suggestion would be that once you complete all rares within a certain race... You gain something like Archaeology Focus which would allow you to lock-out that racial digsite... So in the example of Kalimdor, if you completed all the Fosil Rares, you could then lock out the fossil sites and your chances for Uldum increase slightly... Once you grind enough and are able to knock out the Nightelf Rares, Uldum becomes open to complete and your odds are significantly greater... This way you have a sense of accomplishment and not feel like each piece you grab is a complete waste of time... It would still take awhile even with this system but it would reward hard work on not rely completely on a RGN system... My two cents
** The spawn rate for Uldum digsites is just Awful...!
Edit** Just got the recipe after the 6th Jar... I am one happy player that I can not express in words... Maybe it is because all that grinding is over..! lol

After mindlessly grinding for a few weeks now, this recipe is getting on my nerves. I was originally lured into the grind by my three friends who had all gotten the recipe on their very first Canopic Jar, very early on in the expansion, but boy didn't I know what I was in for. Fast-forward up to now, and I've completed a total of 1314 archaeology projects, whereas nearly 700 of them are Night Elf only. 175 of the projects are of Tol'vir nature, consisting of the two standard rares (Scarab thing and the ring) and these commons:
28xEngraved Scimitar Hilt
23xTiny Oasis Mosaic
24xSoapstone Scarab Necklace
28xCat Statue with Emerald Eyes
20xSketch of a Desert Palace
20xCastle of Sand
...
30xCanopic Jar
I've solved and opened
30
Canopic Jars, all containing that mummified piece of... I believe I'm on the very poor end of the luck-o-meter, considering the amount of comments mentioning 7-8 jars. *sigh* Back to zig-zag flying across Kalimdor.

*NOTE:
You need 450 Archeology to obtain the recipe, and it is extremely RNG. I have heard it was obtained with an alchemy skill as low as 225, though it requires 525 to make.
(Approximate odds)
13% Chance to get a Tol'Vir digsite in Uldum (you need 3-4 to complete a Canopic Jar)
12% Chance to be working on a Canopic Jar
10% Drop rate of the recipe out of a Canopic Jar
So assuming you get 1 Tol'Vir digsite every 30 min and about a 1.5%* chance of getting this for every 3-4 digsites.
We are talking about an average 1200** hours of archeology. This does seem a bit high, so I am hoping the rates I have are wrong. Please post if you have better data on the rates.
*.13x.12x.1=.00156
**30x3.5/.0015/60 =1166
While your calculation of the probability is quite an interesting one, I am asking myself another question:
Is it better to mine every dig-site giving Tol'vir artifacts once it pops up, or is it just as good to mine all others and going to Uldum and mine all dig-sites there? I would guess that yes, you I should go there every time it pops up to highten the chance of another dig-site in Uldum.
Any thoughts?

I will update this as i go... i really truly already am starting to loathe archaeology and the canopic jar. It wouldn't be so bad but sometimes i'll grind for 5 hours straight and see two tol'vir sites.
Hate really doesn't encompass how i feel about this grind. Apparently blizzard is trying to out-do korean MMOs in terms of grind with this skill and are winning by a huge margin.

This sucks beyond belief, it's taking me an average of 15-20 other dig sites just to get one to show up in Uldum, I've only been doing it for about a week now, and to make things more painful the first tol'var item I had to make was a rare, so 150 fragments right there, and now I'm on a second rare, so another 150 before I can even move onto my next item, oy...

There are 63 digsites available in Kalimdor. 9 are Tol'vir. Once you clear a digsite, the next can't be the same you just cleared.
Uldum digsites available----Chance for the next digsite pop at Uldum:
----------------------0:---------------------------------~15.3% (9/59)
----------------------1:---------------------------------~13.6% (8/59)
----------------------2:---------------------------------~11.9% (7/59)
----------------------3:---------------------------------~10.2% (6/59)
Never let them build up. Go to Uldum as soon as they pop there (

-> Capital City -> Uldum). The time you save most certainly pays for the

7th dud Canopic Jar!
Getting frustrated -- this recipe was really the only artifact I wanted from day 1 but instead (not that I'm complaining) I've gotten the mount, the staff, the ring, the scarabs... and a migraine.
EDIT
: 13 days of digging later,
STILL
on my 7th stinking jar! Ugh! I haven't dropped the F-bomb this much on any other part of the game -- not even on my 203rd (
finally
) successful attempt at the Baron's mount; my neighbors must think I have Tourette syndrome!
Here are the current stats on my Tol'vir artifacts thus far:
7 Canopic Jar
8 Soapstone Scarab Necklace
12 Cat Statue with Emerald Eyes
14 Sketch of a Desert Place
4 Castle of Sand
6 Tiny Oasis Mosaic (working on #7)
8 Engraved Scimitar Hilt
10 Jade Asp with Ruby Eyes
Pendant of the Scarab Storm
Ring of the Boy Emporer
Staff of Ammunae
Scepter of Azj'Aqir
and "It Belongs in a Museum" with the subsiquent Professor title (and in fact, have all of the Archaeology achievments)
Grand total for Tol'vir artifacts to date:
73
Also, I only have 4 other rare archaeology artifacts available.
Adding insult to injury, one day I spent an entire 20 hour straight grind digging with only bio and food breaks and not a single solitary Uldum site opened! I even moved to a PvE server in hopes of making digging go faster.
Here is my current stand on this topic: I pride myself in having all of the other alchemy recipes available in the game (and previous good luck at aquiring them) however, if I gather the mats before I have the recipe (only 3 Sands of Time left to purchase) I'm paying someone to make it and throwing away this stupid pick! I would much rather spend my time farming rare mounts or pets rather than taking the chance I'll get something that I take the chance I'll get something else inside of!
I'm annoyed, I'm tired, and there are buckets of sand in my underwear!

12 jars, no recipe. I salute those who go beyond 20 and still continue. I've completed roughly 50 Tol'vir artifacts, so I'm not complaining about the number of jars that have been made available to me. I do wish, though, that they would reduce the number of fragments needed from 45 to about 35 and only letting us use 1 keystone instead of 2. I rarely even get one, so that wouldn't really matter. Anyway, if you want this recipe, you must be prepared for a long, long grind. The worst one I have done by far. Or... you get really lucky in find it in your first 3 jars. And btw... complaining after you've opened under 5 jars is just sad. Either you go all the way, or you give up... your choice.
12 jars and still going strong... happy digging!
(If anyone was wondering, you can get the jar multiple times in a row, my best one so far being 4)

So it seems like the question no one has asked is, what happens if you get the jar and are NOT an alchemist? My 525 archaeologist is still searching for this jar, but I'm wondering if I will just never get the recipe because I'm not an alchemist, or will I still have a chance to get it and be able to sell/bank it if I choose?

What's up with the recorded drop rate? It was listed at 5% forever, now it's 38%.
EDIT: Just saw that the recorded drop rate for Mummified Organs is 1000%. I'm guessing Wowhead added an extra zero to the drop counts for some reason, which means the drop rate should be listed at 3.8%. And yes, I realize that's taking into account the non-alchemists who opened it.

Is it better to mine every dig-site giving Tol'vir artifacts once it pops up, or is it just as good to mine all others and going to Uldum and mine all dig-sites there?
I have had better results by digging Tol'vir sites as soon as the pop up.
heres some theory to support.
we have 9 digsites in Uldum and 63 digsites in kalimdor.
If you dig Tol'vir digsites as soon as they pop-up - then probability that the next digsite will pop up in Uldum is 9/63
If you have 1 digsite already present in Uldum - then probability that the next digsite will pop up in Uldum is 8/63
If you have 2 digsite already present in Uldum - then probability that the next digsite will pop up in Uldum is 7/63
If you have 3 digsite already present in Uldum - then probability that the next digsite will pop up in Uldum is 6/63
0% chance to buil-up more than 3 sites in the same area
I am diggin from 2 days and still dont have the recipe. pitty myself :(

Once you clear a digsite, the next can't be the same you just cleared.
This is actual an incorrect statement. I have on at least 2 occurences I have cleared a site with the next site being the one I had just cleared (one such time was today, saddly a fossile site). No I did not miscount the number of artifacts I dug up.

Sometimes you can get lucky. I uncovered all of the Tol'vir commons and the mount before my first canopic jar was discovered. I then uncovered two commons before my next canopic jar. Right after I solved my second canopic jar, a third canopic jar was uncovered. That was the one with the recipe. So, three canopic jars for me.

Been digging non-stop for 3 days now. Four jars deep and no joy. I'm not really surprised though.
I've completed all Night Elf and Fossil rares and completed the Zin'Rokh on another character on this server, which raises the question can I complete multiple Unique-Equipped rares on the same server?
Anyways, I think I've noticed an increase in the spawn rate of Tol'Vir digsites.
Also, my philosophy has been a little different on the Tol'Vir digsites. I like getting all four down there, then going to town. Usually it trains off into another 2-3 digs which just feels like I accomplish more instead of teleporting down every time I get one.
Edit: Answered my own question. Here's Ring of the Boy Emperor #2.

15th Canopic Jar had the recipe.
Over 22k in fragments, total (and still going).
The the person(s) who said that getting 4 Uldum dig sites at one time was impossible:
I've had it happen to me twice so far. And that was before 4.0.6 went live. Granted. This was over a month of
continuous digging (anywhere between 2 to 8 hours per day).
With the vial of the sands, many 'ride me' and 'I'm truly an epic mount' jokes have begun.
My only thing is, if the rider wants 'variable speeds', they'll have to supply their own haste potions. =P

The chance to get a canopic jar (and the drake recipe) is much better since patch 4.0.6 because 7 new Tol'vir sites have been added to the Kalimdor pool. The new chance for Tol'vir sites to pop up is 23,19% (if you strictly dig in Kalimdor).

seems several people have gotten the recipe on my server this week, the price of the mount has gone down to the point of being barely above cost of mats, so looks like the days of getting a 15-20k profit off of it are over.

Redundant thought but they must've increased the drop rate on this item. Tonight I started my first Tol'vir project ever, and it was a jar, finished the jar within 45 minutes (even getting 2 back to back digsites in Uldum), opened it and inside was the pattern. I know I might be extremely lucky but I never have this kind of luck with anything so I'm skeptical.

Got the recipe on my 15th Canopic jar. I've completed 73 artifacts, including the "common" 2 rares. I had actually given up on getting this recipe, but after the patch (which included 7 more Uldum digsites) I decided to give it another shot. I asked a GM if having an Uldum digsite made the chances of getting another one less likely, but he confirmed that every digsite was randomly chosen from those who are available. Of course, getting 1 and then ignoring it to get more makes the chances of another on less likely as there a fewer Uldum digsites to pick from. Prior to the patch I would have recommended those looking for this recipe to go to the Uldum digsite as soon as it appeared, but now I would say that allowing 2 or 3 digsites is much better. Having more than one made it easier for me to keep digging, as I could solve 1 and then see what the next one was. Still, this recipe is hard to get. You might get lucky and find one in your first 3 jars, but some may have to open 15-30 jars (or more) to get it.
Buying it from someone else is much less time consuming, and the time you will spend on getting it is time you could have spent on farming the gold to buy it (and much more). If you're like me and won't stop until you acutally get it yourself, you may have to dig until you start to go insane. The new digsites has made it much easier, but for all you unlucky bastard out there... this may be a long, long grind.
Happy digging!

While trying to get the bug mount from Tol'Vir solves, I decided to save up about 15 Canopic Jars in my bank.
Picked up alchemy from a trainer and leveled from 1-500 one day, and opened the Jars I had in my bank. The recipe dropped from the first.
So just dropping by to say that you SHOULD save your Canopic Jars even if you're not an alchemist. You might want to change professions some day.
Now if only I could have as much luck with the mount as I had with the recipe...

The mount is selling for around 40,000g in AH. Comparing it with the low rate of dig site appearance, your chance of getting the

Finally! I got it tonight on my 25th jar.
I wish i could say it´s been a pleasant adventure but it really took my nerves after farming for such a long time.
Uldum digsites are still very rare even after having the chance to respawn increased in the last patch. The days i spent more time farming i got 1, sometimes 2
托维尔符文
, but most of days i got none.
I crafted 163 Tol´vir fragments in total and here there is the distribution:

This means i crafted more than 100 artifacts without getting anything new, which was tiring, and in just the last 4 days i got half of the canopic jars i completed. I had to dig in Kalimdor over and over again to make an Uldum digsite respawn. Mostly i completed Night Elf artifacts which are the more common digsites of Kalimdor. In total i completed 436 Night elf and got all the possible items from this race.
Anyway, when i got the recipe tonight i admit it made me happy but im not sure if its worth the time. I leveled from 80 to 84 by doing only archaeology and digging something practically everyday since the launch. A guildie got it after 14 canopic jars and another friend after only 2.
If you want to go for it, be patient, and who knows ^^

I'm trying to imagine how a certain Cata development meeting must have occurred:
"All right, so alchemists have been complaining that they don't have a special perk for their profession. Ideas, anyone?"
"How about a two-person drake that they can craft? A very expensive two-person drake?"
"Good idea... Let's make it more than just expensive, though. I want them to work for this."
"I know, let's have them find the recipe via archaeology."
"Yeah, it could be inside canopic jars. We could call the recipe 'Vial of the Sands,' because, you know, Uldum's got sand..."
"But not *every* canopic jar... that'd be too easy."
"Right, right, it'll be a rare drop within the canopic jar."
"Ooh, how about this? Let's add a feature to the archaeology program to make sure that players doing archaeology rarely get Uldum digsites. We'll boost the Night Elf digsites instead. That'll drive 'em mad."
"So, to summarize, here's what we've got: They have to wait for random Uldum digsites to appear.... and when they finally DO get Uldum sites, they have to wait for the random canopic jar artifact to appear... we'll make sure they get plenty of other Tol'vir artifacts. When they finally get enough fragments to solve the canopic jar, it'll be completely random if the Vial of the Sands recipe is inside. This way, they'll be slaving over archaeology for months, painstakingly solving jar after jar with no apparent progress towards their goal."
"Oh, that's devious. I like it. Good meeting, folks. Let's implement this!"

I set my hearth to Ashenvale (15 mins with guild perk) and used Potion of Deepholm to get back to SW, and then go direct to Uldum.
My strategy was to go back to Uldum everytime I saw a site appear. Several times the next one appeared there too. I would then just move onto next closest site and check each time. If it was in the North, I would hearth to Ashenvale then potion my way back if one appeared in Uldum again.
I was lucky and got 4 in a row in Uldum one time.
I averaged about a jar per day over 4 days (4-6 hrs per day) and recipe was in 5th jar.

Well, the 4.1.0 patch seems to have helped some. Now you are less likely to get a dig site of a race if you have all or most of their artifacts - and since I have pretty much vacuumed Kalimdor for the last 5 months, it means I've got about 99% of what's gettable - except the recipe from Uldum - and now I'm getting Uldum more frequently.
Of course random being random, that may not turn out to be any help in the long run.

While it is possible for the recipe to appear even if you are not yet at 525 Alchemy, it will only appear to Alchemists of a certain level of skill; so I recommend staying on the safe side and getting to 525 Alchemy first. You'll need it anyway to actually learn the recipe!

in the far northwest of Uldum. Finding any of these mats for cheaper than the listed price on the Auction House is unlikely,
but possible
*, so make sure you check because it could save you money. Obviously, don't buy them for more than the listed price. Duh.
The mats from Steps 4 and 5 will be used to make the vial. If you are not an Alchemist, you will need to find one that has completed Step 3 and you'll have to give them the mats to make it.**
*The mats in Step 5 are bought from a vendor so the guild perk
can be used for a discount. No other forms of discounts are currently known. If you do not have this perk, you can check the Auction House to see if someone who does is selling at a discount. Since it could potentially save you money, why not check?
**
Make sure you protect yourself! If you get scammed, GM's can and
will
take action to get your gold and/or mats back, just open a ticket. In order for them to confirm it was a scam, make sure the entire transaction is negotiated using in-game text chat so the GM can read the chat log and confirm that you have been scammed.
(Hopefully this won't happen anyway, but 29k+ in mats is a respectable chunk of money, so make sure to cover your bases.) This 'scam protection' is provided for all forms of scams, including the 'give you the mats to make an item and you keep them and give me nothing' scam, as scamming is against the ToS!
I recommend, for Alchemists making this for yourself, after you make your first one, check your realm to see if there's anyone willing to buy this for extremely high prices (like, 60k or higher, perhaps even 80k). If you get enough profit, make another one and attempt to sell it. Keep going until you don't get any buyers for awhile, making and selling one by one, and then if you go a long time and can't sell your current one for a profit, THEN learn it yourself.

First of all, please note that you HAVE to have alchemy to have this drop from a canopic jar which is from farming tol'vir dig sites. So you need max archeology and have to have alchemy of any skill from what i've seen. The jar drops at least once for every 10 artifects from expiriance and it takes 3 + jar drops to get the recipe. I have never gone passed 15 jars without it dropping. The mats for the actual potion are very expensive and if you can con someone to buy it for 10k lmao you're either very smart or the dude is very stupid.

The latter should allow for a better chance on this recipe in the future if you focus on the tol'vir.

Finally found it, I also have Tyrande's Favorite doll to show for all the silly Night Elf fragments and have almost completed archaeology as I took a detour through Northrend and Outland to complete the rares for Orc, Draenei, Nerubian and Vrykul. I have various painting and writing projects so I do these while flying in windowed mode, it makes it easier.
1x Ring of the Boy Emperor (R)

It took me 20 canopic jars before i got it, reading all the comments of people who got it in less than 10 makes me cry >.<
To anyone who cares it was my 98th tolvir common solve.

If you've gotten this far in the comments and are still reading, here are some interesting thoughts:
According to
this thread
, the recipe has approximately a 10% drop chance.
By the
multiplicative property of probability
, each time you open a jar you can consider the probability of not receiving the recipe as 0.9^
n
, where
n
is the number of jars you've opened and starts incrementing at 1.
Thus the probability of not getting the recipe from 1 jar is 0.9^1 = 90%
The probability of not getting the recipe from 2 jars is 0.9^2 = 81%
etc.
Using this property, assuming that getting the jar is a totally random event (one trial does not effect the other), and across hundreds of thousands of people trying for it:
0.9^7 = 47%, so we would expect about 50% of people to receive the recipe in 7 jars or less.
0.9^13 = 25%, 75% of people in 13 jars or less.
0.9^22 = 9.8%, 90% in 22 jars or less.
0.9^29 = 4.7%, 95% in 29 jars or less.
And if you get to 43 jars you'll be pushed into the 1st percentile. If you have enough tenacity to get this far and still be going after the recipe I recommend you immediately stop trying and never go to Vegas.
Thought this was a neat little way to create some milestones. I'm thinking that if I get to 29 I'll stop. Having been schooled in science the 5th percentile is all the stubbornness I think I can muster. Now if statistics would just stop abusing me by forcing me to go three days at a time without a single jar showing up as my next project, I'll be a much happier person.

Finally got this from my 21st jar with 144 tol'vir artifacts solved. This took about four months although I stopped few weeks before 4.1 and waited for the promised digsite spawn change. I also leveled alts during this project so I didn't dig 24/7 or anything...
If someone asked for advice I'd tell them not to start digging. The mount is not worth it. Find someone else with the recipe and have them craft it for you before you become so obsessed that you can't stop.
But if you consider yourself lucky and try to go after the recipe I'd suggest that you watch some tv series or listen podcasts while digging to distract you from the boredom.

I quit the game because of the frustration I went through trying to get this damn vial when Cataclysm first came out. I spend weeks leveling my Alchemist to the max archaeology, only to go through about 15 jars and not get the damn recipe. I guess I just got turned off because I spent ALL my time focusing on getting the recipe and not doing other things in game. That was last year, and now I am going to play again. This time I will space out my hunting for the recipe with other in game things I enjoy until I get it. Hopefully it will be worth it!

Reading all of the messages makes me feel kind of bad for wanting to share this but I got the Recipe: Vial of the Sands after opening my second Canopic Jar... Obviously I was ecstatic, only to bump against the next obstacle: the costs to make the damn vial. All in all it costs me roughly 36K gold to make! I'm planning on making one, selling it for 50K, and then make one for myself using the money I made. That way I'm not completely poor once I obtain this beast. Fortunately these mounts are in very, very limited supply on my server. Have been checking the AH and so far there hasn't been one in the AH for the past week.

For anyone collating stats.... found one in my 7th Canopic Jar...and next Tol'Vir artefact is another jar!
To get to this stage I have solved 43 Tol'vir artefacts and suffered through solving 136 Night Elf as a by-product. I am still trying to get the Crawling Claw but the last day and a half grinding has returned zero rares from Kalimdor (I have 8 purple and 1 blue left to solve in total, including 1 Night Elf and 2 Tol'vir)

2 tolvir Rares - Ring of Boy Emperor and Pendant of Scarab storm.
23 tolvir commons
I got 2 back to back canopic jars, 3 and 4.
BIG TIP - Dont go to uldum for one digsite, wait to get 2, then go to uldum to get both. Then clear all 4 kalimidor dig sites, then wait for 2 digsites in uldum again. Repeat.

I Finally got this today after what seemed an endless lost cause. I had previously only got 1 Canope Jar and since then had nothing but other Common Artifacts id almost given up until only my 2nd Canope Jar appeared and there it was inside:)
And guess what popped up after getting the drop? Yeah only my 3rd Canope Jar lol
Was weird i kept getting keystones while digging in uldar and i thought this was strange and though "it might be inside this one" lol.
Glad that grind is over.
Along the way i got the BOA ring from uldum and endless Night Elf vanity items.

I got over 50 of those canopic jars when I was farming the bug mount on my main some months back. Yes, 50+. What sucks is my main is a mount/pet collector. I don't have alchemy on them, but an alt does. So, now I have to try and get the plans. I'm up to a very meager 4 jars so far. Oh how I WISH I had my 50+ jars from before.
They should have made the plans available to anyone, but make it bind on account, so you could send it to any of your characters that have alchemy. I don't see a problem with that. I suppose it would make it less rare, but still it would be only for you right? And there still wouldn't be many in the AH, because it's too expensive to make and not very profitable.

I did the grind from 80-85 (on my mage/alchemist) almost entirely on archaeology in hopes of getting this recipe. Had to go through a number of uldum artifacts, including two rares before even getting a canopic jar, but I got the recipe from the first one I opened. :)
Already had enough money saved so I was able to make the mount today. Just had to farm some more volatile lives to make the flasks required. The whole reason I leveled archaeology was because a friend said they wanted this mount, so of course I gave them the mount after I made it. :)
Good luck to all others trying to get this.!

Do you have to be an alchemist in order for the recipe to drop from a jar? I'd hate to drop a profession after 5 yrs unless i have that recipe in my greedy little hands first heh. I cant seem to get a definite answer from here on wowhead or in-game...I got two different answers from two different GM's....one even said "well its supposed to be a mysterious item, and figuring it out is part of the fun!" ...almost sent me into an all caps rage haha

I just got this one.
I get the canoptic jar in archaeology when i had LW/skinning.
But changed my professions when i saw my archaeology reward, to alchemy and JC.
And i got the recepie on my first canoptic jar.
So if loot is decided on the jar when it shows up in archaeology, it can contain the recepie even if you don't have alchemy. You probably just woun't be able to see it. Unless you change a profession to alchemy.

Breaking News: I was testing Archaeology in 4.3 PTR (Build 14995) on a non-alchemist and came across a canopic jar with this recipe. Confirmed after 9 canopic jars, and many many tol'vir solves.
The recipe can drop for a non-alchemist, but is not learnable unless you have the appropriate Alchemy level. You'll have to drop a profession to learn alchemy and level it before you can use the recipe.
Remember, this happened on the 4.3 PTR (Build 14995). I have no idea if the recipe will drop currently on live realms, or in 4.3 live for no n-alchemists.

Not sure if this has been posted before or not...admittedly I have not read all 250+ comments here.
You
can
get this Recipe more than once.
I got it on my 21st Jar earlier in the year. Made my Vial mount. Not long after, I dropped Alchemy to take up Engineering (just far enough to get the two mounts), then dropped it and went back to Alchemy. Naturally this caused me to lose the Vial recipe from my spellbook.
Was out chasing the hand pet today and got another Jar. I had gotten a few since my profession swap and hadn't gotten another Recipe, so I didn't think anything of it.
Today's Jar, however, did contain the Recipe, and I was able to learn it again.
Just thought I would toss this bit of info out there in case anyone was wondering.

I have been farming this recipe for 5 months now. I have digged up about 40 canopic jars. I have still not received the recipe. I even open up a ticket because I should have at least got it by now. The GM told me that is random and to keep trying.
It is definitely not worth the time invested. I put way too much into it to stop now. I will keep farming till I have enough gold to buy it. Good luck to everyone else. I feel for you.

Just looted this recipe last night (Jan/12.) Thought I'd offer what I learned. 310% flying was well worth it. It took me about 14 hours to go from arch 1 to 450, about 2 hours to max out. Solved 203 items, got the recipe in 4th canopic jar. Goblin discount definitely gone for Yasmin's mats. Took almost 40 hours from 450 when I started getting tol'vir items to getting the recipe. Some said that it was good to go immediately to Uldum sites, while others liked to clear out the rest, to me, once I was done leveling the skill, the only ones I did were those close to Uldum and only hearthed northward when none were popping up. Those I left, in my mind, blocked them and made Tol'vir more likely. It is possible to get the tol'vir heiroglyphs and pass them from one character to another. They are not soul bound. They do sell on my server but not for anything I'd spend. I have one left, tempted to try. More than 3/4 of my items were Nelf, but I did see fewer of their sites once I had 16 commons and 8 rares. Don't know how many exactly there are. But the resultant void was filled with both Tol'vir and fossil, since all fossil Items I wanted were already solved, that was still kind of annoying. I almost didn't even try this, considering the negative comments, and while it was a grind, and felt like doing handsprings once I got the recipe and didn't have to use that pick axe any more, I think, if you want this mount, don't let what others say discourage you.

Even though it's time consuming, I think it is worth the while looking for this recipe, especially since the vial itself in my realm costs around 85k on AH. Dunno bout y'all but I find that way overpriced considering what you get.
Am not really looking for it to get the dragon. Just wanna screw up the overprice by selling it cheaper >:)

as I said... think it's worth the while looking for the recipe...

It is true in order to get this recipe you must have 450 archaeology in order to get the digsite in Uldum. Thankfully for me I got the recipe on my first canopic jar which was my 2nd artifact in Uldum with an archaeology level of 510. I did archaeology off and on for 3 weeks to get my archaeology up til I got the jar and recipe. I will tell you farming and getting the mats is worse than leveling your archaeology, if you plan to make everything yourself. If exaulted in Uldum you can get the sands of time for 2.7k each from Yasmin and the Pyrium vial for 4.5k from Yasmin. Good luck fellow alchemists, it sure is a journey for this mount.

Just got this of a Canopic Jar(My 4th one). So I'd like to share some information I gathered during this quest to acquire the recipe. I contacted a GM about it to know if I had to have 525 alchemy or what not.
Me:
Hi, I'm wondering if Vial of Sands recipe drops if you don't have alchemy? Also if it doesn't would lvl 1 alchemy be sufficient?
GM:
Greetings Drottendauwg,
first of all, apologies for the long wait - the last patch is still keeping us fairly busy.
You do need to have Alchemy in order to get the recipe to drop at all. The question of minium level, however, is something we do not disclose as the community hast to figure precise drop mechanics our for itself. Generally it is true though that one does not need a maxed Alchemy skill in order to obtain the recipe (but there is a minimum).
In the end you need 525 skill to use the recipe anyways so bringing Alchemy up before opening the Canopic Jars can't hurt. ;)
Should you have further questions or concerns, do not hesitate to get in touch with us.
So he confirmed that you
need
Alchemy in order for it to drop. And that there is a minimum level of Alchemy needed.
Anyways I skilled 525 alchemy before I started. And one thing I noticed when at 525 archaelogy and after a long time after getting Night Elf artifacts and what not is that Tol'vir where spawning much more frequently and Night Elf much less and this I'm sure of.
Hope this helps out in some way those who want the recipe.
//Good luck, Drottendauwg@Zenedar

Well, my mother got this today.
On her very first Tol'Vir project.
Level 82 druid, 480->485 Archaelogy skill when she made the Canopic Jar and opened it. Obviously there's no minimum level to get it other than being able to get Tol'Vir dig sites.
Now if you'll excuse me, my DK who leveled from 80 to 85 exclusively on archaeology XP still needs to farm his. >.<

After much hair-pulling, whining, computer kicking, (and a temper tantrum or two), I finally got the recipe and squealed so loudly, my husband's ears are still ringing (according to HIM, anyways). It was a lot of work, and pretty time consuming with the flying everywhere. (I watched tv& movies on my iPad). Fortunately, I was home sick for awhile and had some time on my hands.
I found the recipe in my 5th canopic jar. The other Tol'vir artifacts completed include:
1 ring of the boy emperor (rare)
1 pendant of scarab storm (rare)
4 tiny mosaic
1 castle of sand
6 engraved scimitar hilt
11 soapstone Scarborough necklace
6 cat statue with emerald eyes
3 sketch of a desert palace.
Absolutely worth it. And passengers can jump off you in mid flight and parachute in places! Awesome mount, way too much fun. And now Mommy can fly the kids around to help them level. For a fee, of course. :)

For those who are creating characters specifically to get this recipe-- god bless you-- I have a few pointers. Note that I still haven't gotten it on my Alchemist, so take this with the usual grain of Internet salt.
First, obviously, you need 525 Archaeology. The Uldum digsites won't even show until then. Second, you have to have Alchemy; the recipe won't show unless you have it. Some people say that you don't need max skill in that profession, but why take chances? Besides, those Potions of Treasure Finding help make grinding Volatiles more rewarding.
A Dwarf may be your best bet. Although I haven't noticed any real statistical superiority (wait till I have 300 keystones on each of my Archaeologists), they're said to find things like Tol'vir Heiroglyphics more frequently. I like Druids for exploring digsites, because their Swift Flight Form is instantaneous and can be cast while moving; getting from place to place inside a digsite is more tedious if you have to spring a Gryphon or run every time. Alas, Dwarves can't be Druids at the moment. Mage would be the next best bet, because of their teleportation ability-- it cuts down greatly on travel time.
Four sites will spwan on each continent; when you exhaust one, another will spring up. Therefore you can pimp the Uldum sites by diggin in the rest of Kalimdor. Some people have asked whether it's best to jump on the Uldum sites when they pop up, or wait till you have two or three; I'd say the former. Sites will not spawn on top of ones that already exist-- there will always be four unique locations, barring errors-- so having three non-Uldum digsites filled means three non-Uldum sites that won't be selected for the replacement. It's a very small percentage benefit, but every point counts.
Good luck! I'm off to farm digsites.

Unless my maths is flawed (Being an accountant in training I like to think it isn't) the chance of getting this is 69/120000
The chance of getting a Tol'vir digsite is roughly 23% if my source is to be trusted. 23%=23/100
There are 12 Tol'vir artifacts in total, meaning the chance of a canopic jar is 1/12
The canopic jar has a 3% chance of having the recipe 3% = 3/100
23/100x1/12x3/100 = 23x1x3 (69) over 100x12x100 (120000)

This just proced for me on my 11th canopic jar. It was my 65th Tol'vir solve. I bought the drake last year.
Weeks ago the mount, ultramarine qiraji battle tank proced for me. I had the pendant and the ring in that order already last year, then the mount and now the recipe, all in 65 Tol'vir solves. Polishes fingernails on lapels and smiles.
Now for the hand pet. Steps into phone booth to change clothes.

Had alchemy 540 (goblin), decided to level up archeology for this recipe and farmed Kalilmdor digsites exclusively. Took Tol'vir digsites spawn as soon as they we're available.
Total artifacts farmed: 354
Dwarf: 1
Fossil: 74
Night elf: 203
Tol'vir: 59 (of which 5 were

This include 18 rares (4 of them from Tol'vir: Scepter of Azj'Aqir, Ring of the Boy Emperor, Pendant of Scarab Storm and Mummified Monkey Paw).
I consider myself lucky. Good luck farming!

Just got my recipe today (I was up to my elbows in mummified organs..really messy) before this dropped for me. I had to open about 6 or 7 canopic jars before I got it. I had a 511 in alchemy so I still have to get 525 before it will let me learn it.

Power leveled Alchemy last night 1-525. Arch was already 525. I had 3 Uldum digsites I had already saved up-didn't want to bother till I had the Alchemy skill.
First project was a junk worth 10g.
Second project was a Canopic Jar
Busted open the jar and got Vial of Sands pat. :)
Third project now is the Ring of the Boy Emperor
I'm liking this RNG. *!@#$% bragging done.

After all the researce i did on the recipe i was pretty sceptic about starting to farm for this. Thinking it was going to take weeks. My first jar dropped after the fifth artifact and guess what! It contained the recipe: Vial of the Sands. Never been this lucky before :D

Well for my two cents - If you are going to look for this - Remember to do your transmute truegold -your going to need 10 - with a day cool down. I'm actually doing the two day one of first transmute create the Pyrite then transmute that into the Truegold - which share a cool down

The little hunter scooped away the gritty sand with her fingers, carefully exposing the jagged shards of broken pottery. Overhead, the blazing sun beat down, baking her armor and making the air shimmer. Her spirit beast pet prowled at her side, whining in irritation at having to endure the searing desert heat and the sand which always got stuck in his paws. For him, there was no killing, no excitement. Just his little hunter endlessly surveying the landscape all around Azeroth and digging up pieces of silly old objects and painstakingly piecing them together. The spirit cat noticed that she always seemed frustrated when on her digging jaunts, and she’d mutter constantly about wishing she could control which artifacts she searched for and how there were too many Night Elf digsites. He wondered why she bothered, then yawned sleepily, dismissing her puzzling behavior from his mind as he idly watched a scorpion scuttling by.
Meanwhile, the little hunter realized that these fragments were the final missing pieces for the canopic jar she’d been laboriously assembling from sites all across the desert sands of Uldum. Not for the first time, she wondered what catastrophic or mystical forces had acted upon the artifacts of the past. Each item’s fragments were scattered all around the world, rather than being located in one general area as would be expected.
She set the final piece of the jar in its place, and it suddenly became whole in her hands, an ancient magic she did not understand. She shook it lightly, and inside something rattled. That was nothing new. Each of the six previous canopic jars had contained mummified organs, some relic of civilization past. While each jar was clearly empty during the assembly process, when it became whole, somehow those mummified remains appeared. But not just mummified remains. The little hunter had learned that sometimes, if one was very favored and very fortunate, the jar might also contain a rare and ancient parchment. A recipe for alchemists such as herself, teaching her how to transform herself into a dragon strong enough to carry a friend, and how to provide this ability to others.
Long had the little hunter searched for canopic jars, and each had proved empty of anything except those dry and smelly organs. She never gave up hope, though, despite the unfathomable magic of archaeology forcing her to dig repeatedly for the artifacts of other races - especially Night Elf artifacts. Oh, how long she had spent in backbreaking labor, digging in dirt, rock, mud, and sand and piecing together items she didn’t even want. (She still blushed at the thought of the
scandalous silk nightgown
she’d found - remarkable not only for how its silk had survived being buried for so long but for how little material it used.) Yet she persevered, sure that somehow, some day, the gods of Azeroth would favor her.
Now, she ran her fingers lightly over the jar, and sighed. Yes, here was a canopic jar - that in itself was rare, to be allowed to find one - but her heart didn’t beat in anticipation as before. Some of her guildmates were near, and she told them that she would once again be bitterly disappointed by the contents of the jar, empty of all but the detestable organs that she was sure were there solely to mock her. Her hopes nearly extinguished, the little hunter opened the jar, and emptied its contents out onto the hot sands. Down plopped a mummified organ, its disagreeable mustiness permeating the air, but the little hunter paid it no mind as she watched a piece of dirty, cracking parchment drift gently to the ground. The jar fell from her nerveless fingers as she stared at the paper, unable to breathe. She could hardly pick it up as her hands shook from excitement, the frail paper rattling as she hastily scanned the spidery writing and faded diagrams. Yes! It was the recipe for the Vial of the Sands! It was hers at last! She learned it, feeling the ancient knowledge suffusing her like a warm golden glow.
Oblivious to the searing heat and her cranky pet, the little hunter did a dance of delight in the sands, shrieking aloud her happiness and shattering the midafternoon silence. Her pet cast a bored and slightly inquiring eye on her as she capered deliriously about, and she hugged him. “Come on, Telperion. I’m done being an archaeologist! No more digging! No more dusty armor! No more Night Elf digsites! No more sore muscles, long flights, and dirty fingernails! I found the recipe for Vial of the Sands! Let’s go to Orgrimmar to celebrate, and then, my friend, it’s back to the old times. Just you and me, the open road, and whatever adventures befall us!”
The spirit cat stretched lazily as the little hunter began performing the spell that would teleport them to Orgrimmar. He didn’t care what she had found, as long as it meant that they would leave this scorching desert and he would get to chase something very soon.

my experience...
ive read others say in their comments " dont let the dig sites build up in uldum run down there right away to dig them" not as affective as saving them up.. the time u spend traveling back and forth flying to digs and even porting makes this insanely retarded,, hearth stone in uldum then hit all southers digs working our way north and stay north til all digs are down south and travel down,,, usually 3 of the digs would be in uldum, and at least 1 would repawn in uldum making 4 and often times id be stuck down there for an addition 2-3 respawns before doing the move north again.. thats how i run EK as well,, gets things rolling fast, nice way to level ur toon as well if u have an alt with tailoring leatherworking or blacksmithing to catch their gear up on...
the very first jar i got had the recipe in it.. lucky me but not without tons of farming artifacts from everywhere, from lvl 75 to 83 90% of my xp earned was from arch no joke, im running a mage so its a bit easier with ports but still a grind, just dont understand this run down every time one pops up noise... run down with multiple spawns and get 2-3 artifacts each time u hit uldum not "almost enough" to do one

At this late stage of Cataclysm I had the choice of all this farming, random drops and expensive mats vs. buying them on trade where they are commonly selling for 21k. Since farming money is very easy for many now, I'd consider that instead of flying around the desert. Three evenings in GDKP runs did it for me.

Found it today in my 5th jar. After reading the comments here I was prepared to find it in the 20th or more. That was one of the most frustrating moments that I witnessed in wow until today, the major problem is not the long time that takes to drop the recipe from canopic jar, it is the long time Uldum's digsites respawns and the canopic jar... My advise for those who are tired: thinks always positive, say to yourself that it's only 6 time that you will have to farm epic 150 fragments and after that will be easier to get the jar (each epic only comes once) and if you have time to play make a goal as I did on doing a cap of 1 jar per day. BTW while I was looking for the recipe I got the mount, the ring and the pendant. Good luck.

So, I finally got it late Friday night, this was the only reason I picked up archaeology. Started digging in Uldum at 82, which was a pain.
It took me 36 Tol'vir solves, in which I saw Ring of the Boy Emperor and Blessing of the Old God about half way through.
It was in my fifth Canopic Jar.
Some other info:
I had all the rare Night Elf solved, and all but one fossil. Once I was done with Night Elf, I did get Uldum more often. But still, I would keep digging until I got four dig sites in Uldum. Even then, I would get a Tol'vir site pop right back up.
All good stories must come to an end however...
Upon learning the recipe, I'm seeing it being sold on the AH for a little over the cost of mats :(
Oh well, at least I earned mine the hard way.
Good luck!

I just got super lucky. I grinded my alchemist's archaeology, did a few Tol'vir projects, and then got the stupid scarab pendant thing that required 150 tokens. *groan* Finished that, then did one more project, and finally got my first canopic jar project. Flew around kalimdor, got the sites, and solved it...
I closed my eyes and right clicked the jar... opened my eyes and there was the recipe. Wowhead says a 3% chance to get it from the jar.
For those of you who are discouraged, and have people telling you "lol good luck with that", keep going, and with some luck you'll get your recipe. I'm still in shock that I got it from my first jar. :D

Night elf warrior.
I've been working on this recipe since January, 2012. No luck on the first 3 Jars...
2 of my friends grinded archelogy from 1 to 525 in 3 days... They both got recipe on first jar. So i ask my buddy when his dropped what he was doing different than i was.
He said he filled the fragment counter almost to full and then he would do multiple projects in a few seconds... I would grind archeology on a full day many times but with no luck. I kept completing the projects as soon as i had enough fragments for any project.
I tried to fill up the fragment bars to full, got two rare projects, one click and the rare is gone and the next project is up, and i get two canoptic jar at the same time... the 4th jar had recipe and mummified organ in it, and the fifth jar had mummified organ as well.
I hope this helps, i was very discouraged every special project i would get, my friends way is better i think... I did grind archeology today for 10 hours in a row, but the recipe is worth the trouble.
7 months of trying every few weeks, 81 common, 17 rares. I dont do it everyday, it's supposed to be fun, i dont think the game feels like a job to me.
Good luck to all of you who want to try this.

If this recipe were BoA I could farm it on my main along with all my other archaeology mounts/pets/epics, and it wouldn't even bother me that I'm up to 18 Canopic Jars with no recipe because hey, I don't have the Scimitar, Staff or Crawling Claw yet either so I'm going to have to keep digging anyway. But no, I have to keep chugging along on my Alchemy alt almost hoping I don't discover those things because I'm going to have to re-farm them again on my main anyway. And on my main I keep getting Canopic Jars and boy does it burn when you see those.

Warning this is the ugliest grind in the game that I have found my toon is up to 36 days at lvl 85 out of that 864 hours played most has been spent looking for artifacts so far
NO Success.
think about suspending my account every empty jar.
Have made 28 rare 869 common out of which only 35 where canopic jar's been maxed on Archeology and Alchemy over 1 year 1st canopic jar was over a year ago. good luck to those that attempt to find this recipe.

I know everyone is going to hate me for this, but I got the Vial of the Sands recipe on the second Canopic Jar I opened. My first jar was a bust, but after solving a rare artifact, I lucked out and got two Canopic Jars back-to-back. I solved both of them before opening one (I wanted to see if it was possible to carry more than one jar in your inventory - it is.) and the first one I opened had the recipe. After spending the last 12 months camping for Aeonaxx, I couldn't believe I got this so quickly. Maybe Blizzard figured I'd been punished enough.
I'm sure luck had something to do with it, but I also tried to keep my fragments maxxed out. I only solved when I had to to make room for more fragments. I also did digs in other areas until I had all four dig sites in Uldum. Then I'd go there and knock them all out at once. These are just bits of advice I picked up here and in the Blizzard forums.
So yeah, last Tuesday, my Archaeology was only at 100, and less than a week later I have the recipe.
Good luck to everyone else still trying to get it!

Like some people have said, getting this recipe is without a doubt the most annoying thing I've ever attempted and have yet to claim as my own.
I got realm first alchemist, meaning I was 525 hours after cata launch, and my goal was this thing, after learning it came from archeology, I dove right into that.
But it being a RGN, inside a RGN inside yet ANOTHER RGN... it's the making for a lot of heart and headaches.
1) Pray it's a tol'vir.
2) Pray the solve nets you a Jar
3) Pray it's in there.
I'm attempting to get all the alchemy recipes in the game, and the ONLY one I'm missing, is this one. (291/292 recipes) So you can imagine my frustration at this thing still not showing it's face. I'd pay some good gold for this recipe if it became BoE.

Level 85
Alch - 525
Archaeology - Near or at 500 when I got my first Canopic Jar.
Scenario: I was leveling Archaeology when - around the early 500 level - I got a dig in Uldum. I went out there - performed a dig and got got enough fragments to "solve." I solved and sure enough I got a Jar. It may have been the second solve, since I had a couple of digs in Uldum.
Anyhow, I did NOT open the Jar. I was a bit confused - whether you had to be 525 Archaeology so the pattern would show up. So I did not open the Jar. Of course, once you hit the 501 or 505 Archaeology level - every solve no longer gives you 5 points. Now it is 1 point. So I was getting desperate - and thought of opening the Jar. But I restrained myself.
Note: Once I had the Jar in my bag - I had multiple solves in Uldum and did NOT see another Jar. So I'm not sure if you can have more than one Jar in your inventory.
Aside from that: I continued to level my Archaeology with the Jar in my bag. As soon as I hit 525 Archaeology - I opened the Jar and BAM! There it is! The pattern. My first Jar!
Took me about two days to level Archaeology up to 525. Today, I started early at about 250 level and hit the 525 mark. Very excited!
Note: I also got the Skeleton Mount and a couple of other lower level account bound epics.
Right now I see the Pendant of the Scarab Storm to be solved - Isn't that the bug mount? Anyhow, going to complete that last one and then off to make me a dragon!
For verification - you can see "activity" under the character "Counselor" Horde Blackrock.
Anyhow, good luck all. Hope you get the pattern!

As of patch 5.0.4 we are able to dig 6 times on each dig site, with a max total of 54 fragments per dig site. It's hard to say if that will make it easier/faster to get this recipie or not. On one hand you'll have to dig 6 times on every nightelf, fossil etc dig site for force spawn the tol'vir digsites, on the other hand you'll get 6 digs per tol'vir digsite. Maybe it evens out in the end.
When I try to force spawn tol'vir digsites I usually start up north and slowly make my way down towards south, digging on every site I pass on the way. Unlike what some people say, I dont go straight to uldum as soon as a digsite spawns, but continue my north-south route. And most of the times when I reach uldum I have 2 digsites there, but sometimes I have had 3 with a 4th spawning right after I finished the first site. I've found this to be the best strategy when collecting tol'vir fragments.
I was lucky and got the recipie fairly quick, but I'm still grinding tol'vir fragments trying to get the

I'll point out that you can turn your completed pandarian and Mogu artefacts into a 'Restored Artifact' and trade them to Brann Bronzebeard for Tol'vir fragments.
You only get a nodes worth of fragments for an entire artefact but it takes out 1 level of RNG and even if you don't get it, 3x 1g artefacts for something like the Cat statue with emerald eyes worth 100g isn't too bad and the sites are closer together too.
*you can also trade a spirit of harmony for a restored artefact crate.

How I worked: From the start of archaeology, I only dug on Kalimdor. As soon as I was able to get Tol'vir digsites, I started on top of the map (if there were digsites there of course) and worked my way down. I didn't immediately go to Uldum as soon as a digsite spawned there. My

Blizz: Hey let's give this lv 90 EVERY SINGLE Tol'vir rare artifact we got first, THEN all the worthless common and grey items! JUST so that he/she does not have to spend his/her time on the worthless trash!
Me: Only 100 more aritifacts untill I get this "Ring of the Boy Emperor"! Maybe afterwards I'll get the Canopic jar!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Random person: Yay! We can finally find 6 different sets of fragments instead of 3! That means I'll get that recipy twice as fast!
Me: But that also means you have to deal with twice as many Night elf sets!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Wile I was doin my thang, I listened to books on my phone, these are all the audio books that where listened to wile finding this recipy:
The Harry Potter series (7 books)
The Lord of the Rings + The Hobbit
Wuthering Heights
Persuasion
The Hitch Hiker’s Guide to the Galaxy
Alice in Wonderland
Tale Of Two Cities
To note, I did listen to a bit of them outside of this, but whenever I was board, I just turned on the audio books, got on my toon, and started finding (about 85% of the time while listening)
--------------------
I did a LOT of other things, but really it took me a total of......... I'd say 35 hours if I remember right, (starting from when I first got my first Tol'vir spots). Good news also! while finding this, I accumulated around 15k gold worth of the usless grays and commons, so there goes about 1/2 of the cost for the damned thing!

Does anyone know if it's possible to find this recipe more than once? I'm asking because my Horde alchemist found it about 7 months ago but I am now trying to get it for my Alliance alchemist who is on a different server. Yes, I know the Sandstone Drake is account-wide now and yes, my Alliance alchemist has the mount. But I have some friends on that server who want me to make the mount for them but the only toon I have who can do that is a different faction on a different server.

Digging only in Kalimdor, (as an alchemist with 450+ archeology, of course), once your have all of the Troll, Tol'vir, Night Elf, and Fossil rare artifacts, your chances of getting this recipe from any given dig site is
~0.4%
. That figure is based on averaging the completion of one artifact per dig site, which has been quite accurate in my own experience. If you don't have all of the rares, your odds may vary by a small fraction of a percent, depending on which races' rares you have completed.
This means you have approximately
50% chance of finding the recipe after around 150 dig sites
, if you include leveling archeology up to 450.
And just to give an idea of what farming this can be like...
It seems I've been particularly unlucky thus far, having gone through 500+ dig sites, only getting 11 canopic jars (should've been around 18), and none of those jars containing the recipe (69% UNlucky). I've put 21 days on my main - about one week leveling to 90, another week leveling skills and doing lvl 90 dailies/dungeons/raids/etc., and the final seven days (times twenty-four hours) looking for this damned vial recipe. I can't imagine how I would feel if I were the guy who went through 50 jars before realizing he couldn't find the recipe without alchemy! (Good luck, bud! Hang in there!) Im'a keep looking for this thing until I find it. It's about pride and obsession now...but mostly obsession. The thing of it is, I don't even want the stupid mount - just the gold. I have all the crafted mats to make three of these in the bank.
Anyway, WoW is just not fun when you're spending many, many hours chasing this elusive item.
My advice: BUY THE DAMN THING!
The next jar had it! So my revised advice: BUY THE DAMN THING
FROM ME
!
Downrated due to - what - helpful math?

This took me 2 days to get with two Canopic Jars. Each dig site in Uldum put out enough pieces to make a common artifact (saw somewhere it took 3-4 sites which is wrong)
Once I got to 475 in archaeology I kept digging in Kalimdor (and going to Uldum when I had dig sites there.) Though I was 600 when I got the recipe.

FINALLY!
I get to be the person that everyone
hates
. Seriously, you don't know how long I've waited to say the following words.
"Hmm, this isn't that rare I mean come on, I only did 3 dig sites in Tol'vir and my first Jar dropped the recipe."
Seriously though, I know how rare this recipe is and I almost passed out when I saw it drop from the first one. I have the absolute worst loot luck and I actually avoided Tol'vir as long as I could, because I didn't want to be disappointed. Finally I had 3 Tol'vir dig sites up and if I wanted to keep grinding Night Elf Stuff, I had to go do those sites to free something up. I got 2-3 Common pieces of junk and then a Canopic Jar, I knew what it was but in my normal bad loot fashion did not get excited, because I know how rarely I get anything cool without effort.
Finally finished all the sites and need like 1 more fragment for the Jar, luckily another site popped up, went, surveyed, crafted, opened jar
profit all the happiness in the world
.
Now I'm just too unbelievably wow poor to afford making the thing.
Edit, because I feel a little bad for doing this, but I'm just so darn happy, see my fail statistics below!
--Swift White Hawkstrider
: Farmed every day on all 4 characters for 2 years it finally dropped after 2 yeras
--Dark Whelpling
: Killed 8k Whelps while farming and never saw the drop, however I did see a lovely druid passing by kill about 2 Whelps, either way after a ridiculously long farming session I head back to Stormwind to see that Druid that was there no longer than 5 minutes, selling my precious Dark Whelpling, the one that I put all the effort towards. I wanted to rip my face off
--Ashes of Al'ar
: Yeah,we're not going to talk about that
--Raven Lord
: 3 Years of farming, I've still never seen it once
--Mysterious Camel Figurine
: For a year and a half I've used popular macros for way points at least once every other day to hunt these things. I've never even seen one. I've scoured the area around each way point thinking I must be missing that tiny little figurine, but nada, zip.
There are way too many of my failures to list, seriously. My lack of wow awesome epics and neat trinkets is not for a lack of trying, it's for a lack of RNG not being on my side. I'd continue the list, but I just got depressed with the amount I've written, haha.

Hello my fellow Archaeologists!
Hopefully my story will encourage all you would-be Vial of the Sands creators. I did 6 dig sites in Uldum once my skill was high enough to see them. All 6 were Tol'vir! When I started solving the projects, the 4th item was a Canopic Jar! That very first Canopic jar had the recipe! It took a total of 90 minutes start to finish to get this grandest of prizes! So keep at it! It may be your day to become a dragon creator!
P.S. to anyone on server Misha if you can get the materials together come find me in-game and I will create yours for free! ; ). Let the sky be filled with Dragons!
Regards,
Mage Marquous

Got the recipe on my first jar, and have alchemy capped, Not sure if having alchemy raises the chance, or I just lucky. Other then that, been trying to get the Scepter for the mount, but no luck yet.
Dont give up!

Extra tip for anyone still lower levels: Darkmoon Fair. Many of the mats you need, such as the volatiles, ore, and herbs can be fished from the sealed crates, plus other stuff you get can be sold in AH to make gold as well

Hey guys:D I have this awesome trick to have constant tol'vir digsites. First of all you need a http
螳螂妖遗物声波定位仪
, purchased from Brann Bronzebeard at the Seat of Knowledge for 1
修复的遗物
. Then head to kalimdor. You will now see that you have 8 active digsites on your map. 4 off them will randomize everytime you fly to another zone. So if you go to Uldum and fly between it and one of the other zones nearby, you should be able to spawn lots of tol'virs! This will may get fixed soon so enjoy while you can :D
- 21 jars still counting:/
EDIT: got it on 25'th jar:) I hate RNG:)

My 3rd Canopic Jar contained this recipe (on my Alchemist) -
i think the % to get the recipe is actually large if you are also an Alchemist of high skill.
I suggest you buy the Mantid Artifact Sonic Locator
, it will allow you to randomize dig sites anywhere in the old world just by flying from one zone's border to the other - for more info, look at the Mantid Artifact Sonic Locator's page on wowhead.
In total took me about 2 hours to farm tol'vir fragments (with the mantid locator) until my 3rd canopic jar happened.

Hey guys:D I have this awesome trick to have constant tol'vir digsites. First of all you need a lasts 1 day in your bags, purchased from Brann Bronzebeard at the Seat of Knowledge for 1 Restored Artifact. Then head to kalimdor. You will now see that you have 8 active digsites on your map. 4 off them will randomize everytime you fly to another zone. So if you go to Uldum and fly between it and one of the other zones nearby, you should be able to spawn lots of tol'virs sites! This may get fixed soon so enjoy while you can,you may also logout and back in. That's what I did and it seemed to work better then going from zone to zone because, when you leave a zone it puts some where you left but as you go back in to that zone it randomizes agein . This is a repost of what Kraniks said and its the best way so far so I wanted to keep it on the top of other crap posts . And this still works , i would not go with the Crate of Tol'vir Archaeology Fragments way, which can be purchased for one Restored Artifact. Because you have to spend a spirit of harm to get Restored Artifact. And it may take hours, Even Days of farming to pick up the amount of Tol'vir Fragments you will need. First of all if you are not exalted with the Lorewalkers. the Lorewalkers rep is needed to buy , You can Get exalted with the Lorewalkers in an hour or less with this guide at
http://wow.joystiq.com/2012/10/05/lorewalkers-easy-exalted-guide/
]. There's coordinates, maps and more, this is the way I went and you will get 47,223 rep with the Lorewalkers. And you can buy a mount for 480g from the the Lorewalkers vendor that can be found in the Mogu'shan Palace. Happy farming guys :D

Finally found the recipe after opening 9 x
坎努匹克陶罐
. However it was not as easy as it sounds and this is my story.
My alchemist is a 90 worgen druid and I leveled archaeology from the ground up to find this recipe during the Mists of Pandaria expansion. I primarily leveled in the Eastern Kingdoms and once I hit 450 archaeology, I went to Kalimdor to finish leveling and with the hopes of finding Tol'vir dig sites. Around 575, I went out to Pandaria to try the new "trade in" method from
布莱恩·铜须
at the Seat of Knowledge. You do need to have 600 archaeology before you can make use of the trade in boxes.
At first I was getting a steady stream of Uldum dig sites, along with a good amount of Night Elf sites and a handful of fossil sites. I was getting what I considered a steady rotation of
坎努匹克陶罐
, seemed to be about every third common Tol'vir item. What felt to be half way through my grind, which consisted of 8+ hours a day for 4 days, something odd happened. The RNG Gods decided to play a cruel joke on me. The Tol'vir sites stopped, I stopped seeing the jars. They became very far and few in between the common Tol'vir items. Night elf dig sites became extra heavy, even though I was only missing
泰兰德最爱的玩偶
, and there were a ton of fossil and troll sites, handful of dwarf! The only fossil I was missing was the
绝种龟壳
and the troll rare
辛洛斯,诸界的毁灭者
. It honestly felt as if a Tol'vir rare was waiting to spawn and luckily it was the recipe. By this time, I was feeling burnt out and crushed. This is still no where an easy grind unless you are super lucky.
The only saving graces was having the fastest flying speed along with shape shifting, which reduces time getting on a mount. My hearth point was
七星殿
and I would take the portal to
暴风城
and then to
奥丹姆
. Also there was no cooldown on
传送:月光林地
so that got me to the north end of Kalimdor fast. Otherwise without that spell, you can port to Stormwind and then take the portal to
海加尔山
. You can also take the portal to
达拉然
and take the portal to the Caverns of Time which is in
塔纳利斯
. If you get burned out flying around Kalimdor, doing archeology in Pandaria can help pass the time and turn in straight for Tol'vir pieces, though I didn't find that as efficient. You need a completed artifact to trade in for a box of 6-9 pieces.
Could I have just found an alchemist to make this for me? Possibly but my server population has died out, especially anyone that played during the Cataclysm expansion.
时沙之瓶
was expensive on my server, it sells for around 40k. The grind was frustrating but in the end, it was worth it as I will have this recipe for as long as I play WoW.
At the end, this was my count:
Tol'vir:
3/7 rare (including recipe)
9 canopic jars
43 common
Night Elf:
6/7 rare
119 common
Fossil:
4/5 rare
54 common
Troll:
2/3 rare
33 common
Dwarf:
0/4 rare
14 common
Pandaren:
2/2 rare
11 common
Mogu:
1/2 rare

From what I've read, I've seen claims of people getting the recipe as low as 225, and as I don't want to take the risk with my 230 Alchemy and open a jar that could've had the recipe if I'd only had my Alch level higer- can anyone validate/invalidate these claims? If so that would be awesometacular. :3

I don't know if the Mantid artifact bug still works as it used to, could somebody comfirm this?.
I can only reset the locations by logging ; and I noticed a considerable decrease on my fragment and hieroglyphs drop..
( Im getting more 5's and 6's and one hieroglyph each 3 digsites, not to mention I solved just 1 canopic jar since I started it ; when I used to get 9's and 8's way more often and at least one hieroglyph per dig site and 6 canopic Jars)
I might be paranoid tho, and hope thats it, Because a nerf on the canopic jar and rares by using this "bug" seems posible ; ah yes, I forgot to say that the number of rare items solved sicne I started to use the bug is 0; just common items so far
I know I completed just a few artifacts (so far 80 and 7 canopic jars) but
before
the Bug I made 6 canopic jars and every rare item; now that im using it not a single rare item ( 40 items solved, all of them common and just 1 canopic jar)....
Am I some kind of bad luck Brian or this got nerfed?

The "Vial"... *sigh*
When I was just a little girl, back in Ironforge, I'd sneak out of bed and sat at the top of the stairs, to hear the stories that were told in my parents' inn. Those stories would tug on my heart strings like nothing had ever before, and would never after. Against all advice and judgement I went to seek out this Vial, this elusive Recipe, that had defeated the toughest of explorers. I walked, rode, ate, drank and slept amongst Humans, Draenei, Gnomes, and others in search of this one item... this One Great Prize.
Sand, sand, sand, as far as my eyes could see. Sifting through sand, breathing sand, coughing up sand, until my eyes fell shut and the night spread her starry blanket over me. And I dreamed... The Recipe for The Vial... mine... Eternal fame and fortune... mine...
Last night, as I was updating my journals, I found myself flipping the pages, back to my first Uldum Canopic Jar, more than 1 year ago. Such a long time! I put my journal in my backpack, laid myself down, pulled my blanket over me, when suddenly...
"pssttt!"
I bolted up straight and noticed some movement outside my tent. I opened the flap to find no one there, just a piece of rock with a note slipped under it.
"
TONIGHT
!"
A silly note? An Omen? How could I know? Unable to sleep, I decided to go for just one more dig...
After the Ruins of Khintaset, I was only 15 fragments short of opening another Canopic Jar, so I checked out the Broken Pillar Digsite in Tanaris, while impatiently hoping for another Uldum dig.
Yes!
Schnottz' Landing!
As I fumbled to fit the final fragment into the Canopic Jar I almost dropped it. When I heard it click into position I realized I had closed my eyes. It took a lot of effort to open them, and I saw...
Mummified Organ...
Pah! so much for "TONIGHT!"
Then I looked at my journal. What? Another Canopic Jar to be found? A quick calculation told me that I would need not just One, but even TWO Tol'Vir Hieroglyphics! I threw whatever caution I had inside me to the desert winds...
My heart lept in my throat when I discovered not just One, but TWO hieroglyphics, it almost stopped beating when the 6th and last dig brought forth the EXACT amount of fragments to complete this Canopic Jar...
I forced myself to not even BLINK this time...
What my wide-open eyes beheld, turned my legs to Haggis and I fell to the ground. The Sands of Uldum drank my tears, as my trembling hands held:
"Recipe: Vial of the Sands"...

The glitch where you use the Mantid Artifact Sonic Locator to randomize your spawns no longer works after 5.4. Just a heads up. After grinding my archaeology and my lorewalker rep then realizing it was for nothing. Good luck getting this drop in any speedy process.

Does anybody ever consider, this shouldn't be in a container--think about it. You're putting together fragments of a jar, then opening the jar to see what's inside. By all logic, nothing would be inside, because you JUST put it together.
I'm all for magical loot fairies, but this just isn't fair.
/rant over, back to farming. (I was REALLY lazy in Cataclysm.)

The fastest way to get this recipe after 5.4 since
sonic locater isnt working anymore is in my opinion to just get the pandaran digsites done.
and exchange the completed artifacts
for
crate of tol'vir archaeology fragments.
usually u get between 5 and 9 pieces and once in a while a hieroglyphic.
i got my recipe out of my second jar i made this way.
Good luck to all you farmers and fellow alchemists

I started doing this on an alt and realized that (unfortunately) Restored Artifacts are soulbound. However, there IS a way to send your alt who has Alchemy some love:
1) On your main, save up your
修复的遗物
while you're doing your Arch achievements.
2) Turn in all the Restored Artifacts at the Restored Artifact Quartermaster in the Vale for Tol'vir boxes.
3) Open them all, DO NOT USE ANY TOL'VIR HEIROGLYPHICS TO FINISH PUZZLES. Simply use the pieces from the boxes and keep going until you are out of
修复的遗物
.
I did this with 100 boxes and got... 15 Tol'vir Heiroglyphics. These are most certainly NOT soulbound and can be sent to your alt to quickly burn through Tol'vir puzzles to get to your
坎努匹克陶罐
faster.
Hope this helps!

I ended up farming for the vial for 3 weeks, got 2 canopic jars and it was in the 2nd jar i had gotten. to be fair i farmed for about 6-8 hours at a time 7/days a week for 3 weeks at max level alchemy and max level archeology- for every 10 digsites i had gotten i had gotten 2-3 uldum digsites, and everytime i had farmed the uldum digsites i had gotten 4-5 gray items, 1 rare then a canopic jar- by the time i had gotten done and had finally gotten the jar (by sheer luck that it was in the 2nd jar i had gotten) i had nearly 1k worth of items that i had sold to the vendors alone- so yes it took forever just to farm it, and yes the items you need are expensive, but once you even see the receipe in your inventory you will feel a lightening and a sense of relief- it will feel worth the grind, does it feel worth it while grinding? no because you will feel like you will never be lucky enough to get it, or be able to afford it, but with time, and with luck, you will get there. trust me, i know :) im on staghelm- warlock named Dementya (my alchemist). good luck fellow players, and happy (or frustrating) hunting ^_^

(This is for getting Canopic Jars) Some people don't know this, but the easiest way to farm those pieces is to farm archaeology in Pandaria and then go to Brann Bronzebeard in Vale of Eternal Blossoms, Mogu'shan Palace and trade in your restored artifacts for a Crate of Tol'vir archaeology fragments. In the crate you'll get about 6-12 fragments with a possible Tol'vir Hieroglyphic. Hope that helps people who were just farming in Uldum, which I did at one point then remembered this.

Let me start this off by saying YOU NEED ALCHEMY TO LOOT THE RECIPE! Not just to use it. I.E. the recipe is not in the loot table of canopic jars unless you have alchemy. This is something that is not stated enough. While the skill level required is unknown, you should probably have about 450 to be on the safe side.
As for what I found to be the best method to protect your mental sanity of farming this recipe: Go out and get exalted with the lore walkers in MoP. There are guides on how to do this. When you are exalted, you can buy mantid artifact hunter kits from them. While the exploit with the sonic locator was patched, it is still useful by keeping all dig sites in townlong steppes and the dread wastes, cutting your travel time between sites in half (maybe more).
Now after resetting all your pandaria digsites using the lore walkers map that comes in the kit you got, check your own map, and go to whatever zone has the most digsites. Make sure you have the gathermate addon or something similar. Due to the generally small sizes of the mantid digsites, the colour of light on you surveyor will almost always tell you exactly where the fragment is. If the light is green, check what fragment locations on your map are green, and go to them. Do the same for yellow and red lights. I found that I could uncover each fragment in 1-2 casts of survey.
What you want to do is complete all of the digsites the are close together in your zone until they either; put all digsites in the adjacent zone, or there is only 1 digsites left in your zone, but it is very far from you. When either of these are true, go to the other zone and repeat. Leaving behind a stray digsites will save you time in most cases because you are inevitably coming back to that zone. Why go out of your way to get it, just to increase the flight distance to your next digsite? When you get a bunch of mantid artifact, restore them and go back to Brann Bronzebeard to trade them in for tol'vir crates. Loot the crates and solve as many tol'vir artifacts as possible.
Now here come the really important tips that will keep you from going insane during this long process.
1. Find something to listen to or do, that can take your mind off of the task at hand. Be it music or tv or anything, have something that will make the farming more of a background thought.
2. Don't constantly go back and forth between farming the artifacts and trading them in for tol'vir crates. Instead, only go back to Brann when you have 30-40 mantid artifacts. Whether you collect that much in one or many sittings is up to you. I promise you this will help. I found that If I frequently traded in the crates to solve tol'vir artifacts, I was discouraged to go back out and farm if I didn't get the recipe. even worse if I didn't get a canopic jar. But if you don't go back, then you stay complacent with farming.
All in all this method managed to get me my recipe in 5 jars. I can't claim that it is the quickest method, but I can claim that it's the easiest and most stress free method. Good luck diggin'!

I got the recipe from my 5th Canopic Jar on my 600 maxed Alchemist, maxed Archaeologist. Wound up spending 58 Spirits of Harmony to exchange for Restored Artifacts. Only got 2 jars from that, and about 4 cats eyes and a couple other common items. Glad to finally have it done, and now I can use up the 8 Sands of Time that I've had sitting in my bank for the past couple months.

Here is what I believe is BY FAR the fastest way to pull this off, here are your requirements:
1. 600 score in archeology
2. exalted with the Lorewalkers
3. flight in Pandaria
4. Have completed at least one digsite in Uldum
5. Be an alchemist of course, at least 525
Once exalted with Lorewalkers, purchase a MANTID ARTIFACT HUNTER'S KIT. when you open it 2 items will appear in your inventory. One item will cause you to only see mantid digsites for 24 hours. The other is a one use item, Lorewalkers map. It will reset your digsites. After using it you will only see mantid digsites and only they will respawn for 24 hours. The advantage here is that they only spawn in Dread Wastes and Townlong Steppes. You will have 3 to 4 digsites in the same zone on a regular basis, helping you generate restored artifacts 10 times faster than normal. Trade them all in for Tol'Vir fragments and you'll have the pattern before you know it.
Trust me, it'll work, I sit before you in dragon form in less than 2 days because of it.

So I got this "blink of an eye" sensation that I absolutely needed this recipe when I saw someone advertising their vial of the sands (even though I've seen that a thousand times, literally.) I guess that's just how these things go sometimes.
Well, I read the painful comments about opening 45 jars, farming artifacts for hours and hours, etc. And I decided I would deal with the pain. Well, about 5 pandaria digsites in I was getting quite bored, so I decided to use spirits of harmony to get archaeology crates to turn in for tol'vir fragments.
I made one common artifact, and the next that popped was the canopic jar. I used my SoH's and got enough crates to get enough Tol'vir artifacts (and then some) and proceeded to make and open my canopic jar, which yielded the Vial of the Sands. I was elated that I didn't have to spend more than 20 minutes on a few digsites, and only used 10 SoH's (out of the 94 that I have) But it also made me feel pretty crappy about all the people who have to work their butts off for this recipe.
I can't give any legitimate advice of farming for this pattern. Most people don't horde SoH quite like I do, but I can say if you have a whimsical desire to suddenly go for this, don't be discouraged by the scary comments. You may just get lucky. And if you don't, well, that's the name of the game, and you can bet you will get it at least later than sooner, and appreciate it all the more.

2014 may 08. I want to give you some concrete reassurance and consolation, based on my own grind:
That you can get the recipe, if you want!
Particularly, what you are in for, regarding psychology and mindset. I'll do it backwards, from the immediate to the more back-groundy stuff.
I got it between 10th and 20th canopic jar. Reading about many similar cases, I trust the rumoured 10% drop rate.
I guess the chance to get a canopic jar is between 1/7 and 1/10. There are 7 types of tol'vir dig-items. Though it often took awhile between each canopic jar, I got them often enough that about 1 in 7 doesn't sound 'off the mark'.
Method of obtaining tol'vir fragments.
I initially started with the Pandaria mantid approach: Exchanging mantid fragments with the Lorewalkers. This caused me early burn-out: I didn't like the bad exchange rate when converting, and got annoyed with having to endlessly circle the same few mantid dig sites.
So for a while I switched to Kalimdor Tol'viring, for some variety. But realised this was differently worse, for 3 reasons: Too much travel to reach dig sites. Too complex digsites, with 'red' surveys (bad direction advise). Too many non-tol'vir sites between tol'vir respawns.
Having thus learned my lesson, I returned to mantid digging. in the meantime I had become a 'fluid' skilled archeologist, and now appreciated that mantid fragments often only require 2 surveys. (in addition, I had installed tons of curse.com archeology add-ons - some of these help immensely, showing dots on your map where you have found fragments earlier.)
I had now adjusted to the grind, which - with the appropriate mindset/patience, isn't really bad. As with many things, it's not (only) your situation, but instead your 'view' of same situation, that determines how horrible it will feel for you..
Aspects of my approach: Good podcasts. e.g. 'auction house podcasts' about earning your 40k gold :-).
I would do the grind in 1-2 hour chunks, 'calling it a day' after having put in an effort. Also, I would set other goals than "drake recipe". Example goals are "get a canopic jar" - a much more 'realistic' goal. Another goal is "find 20 artifacts" or "find 40 artifacts".
Some numbers from that: Mostly, I'd get about 20 artifacts per hour. Pacing yourself, you could probably get 25 or 30 per hour. But my perspective - why 'hurt' yourself like that, when doing a long grind - it's not a dps race, it's an endurance race, so.. make yourself comfortable instead.
A tol'vir artifact typically requires about 6 source mantid artifacts. Thus 20 mantids per hour means 3 tol'vir per hour. If canopics are 1 in 7, that is around 1 canopic jar every 2 hours. (which matched my actual experience.)
Total grind time: Somewhere around 20 hours(just recipe).
Now various pseudo-psychological tricks, that, at least work for me:
- If I got a canopic jar, I wouldn't open it at the END of a session. Instead, I'd leave it in my inventory. Then, when arriving prepared for next grind session (quality freshbrewed coffee mug in my hand, good armchair..), I'd start the session by opening the jar to get my mummified organ, then start the grind..
(btw, mummified organs taste great with coffee.)
This to me is much more effective than ending your grinding session with the disappointment of opening a failing canopic jar. My point: A canopic jar is a reward (success with a part goal.) A mummified organ is not a reward (at least, to me it feels disheartening.)
Same trick just with artifacts: Instead of getting 10 non-canopic artifacts, I'd keep the tol'vir artifact crates until next session start (again, tol'vir artifacts are a 'reward', a successful part-goal.) If you are in doubt about how to choose between these two: If you have 200 artifacts, go ahead and try go get canopic jars (because you'd expect to get 30 canopic jars with drop rate of 1/7, ie a reward), but if you only have 18 artifacts, keep them, because you'll probably not get any 1/7 canopic jar..ie disappointment)
Thoughts on 'for who is this activity worth it?'.. Why is 'anything' worth it? Example: I'm also learning to walk slackline (outside of wow..) It can be compared a bit, since learning that is also a 'long grind', butnot very hard, if you just stick to it. And to me personally, slacklining is very fulfilling: When you start out, you can't do it at all. Then, one day (gradually), you can dance salsa and text on your mobile while balancing on one foot on the slackline. Not useful per se, but a very fulfilling experience, seeing yourself suddenly easily 'doing what was impossible'. Now; I know sand drake is not like that exactly, but:
Compare it to just grinding the gold and _buying_ the drake instead. That doesn't make sense to me, it just feels like 'buying a toy', that you have no connection to. In comparison, I 'earned' my sand drake: I felt the ambition to get it, I let the ambition and determinedness and will grow in me to go after what I wanted, while doing it, having patience, while I believed it was 'realistic' (e.g. 20 hours of my life, which so far has been considerably longer than 20 hours.)
It doesn't mean that afterwards I'll sit for weeks 'hugging' my new drake, but it means that it's meaningful to me to earn it. btw 'meaning' and 'meaningful', to me, is something personal that you assign yourself - we are 'meaning-assigning' creatures 'meaning has no meaning' outside of us.. So if I decide to give something 'meaning' for me, by definition it has.. Until I lose that sense of 'meaning' in a given purpose.
For the same reason, I'm not sure I'll ever use my 'boost to 90', because the result of that boost would feel alien to me - I need the 89 levels to connect to my toons, and in fact I often switch to a new toon as soon as my current reaches level 90..
I've seen advice on "make sure to take breaks and distract yourself with other things" and so on.. it might work for some, but for myself, it was important to have a bit of discipline in the grinding.. if you set off 120 minutes to grind drake, then grind for 15 minutes, then procrastinate for 105 minutes halfheartedly, it will take you a very long time to put in those "20 hours", and they are going to feel like 80 hours (mostly because they are - 15 hours grind, 65 hours procrastinating and feeling guilty..)
:-) Good luck!

If you recently just got an Alchemist and got Archeology (like me) and dont wanne use that trick that randomize zones you in Uldum can turn in restored artifacts

First of all, spending the 2 crates to get the mantid only dig sites IS a GREAT investment! (if you find you get a "cant use that here" error it is probably because you are trying to dig in an old non mantid site. Use the randomizer and go at it.
2nd... I lucked out. I switched to my Archie to get the sonic pulse generator gun for my new hunter, lucked out, and got it on my first "solve" (maybe not luck, it was in my journal) but.. now I didn't want to do my digging. LOL.. Keep at it, since you used the 2 crates, make the most of them.
3rdly, the completed artifact crates can be turned in for other racial fragments. Given that these mantid digs only occur in 2 zones (so far as ive noticed) and that they are actually small dig sites, you will get crates like crazy, bringing me to point #4...
4th KEEP a close eye on your mantid artifacts. Since the changes, you get MORE per dig, meaning you will cap your 200 every 2nd dig site (or maybe a little into a 3rd). Ive maxed at 200 3 times in 30 minutes *36 minutes since my last post, which I made just prior to starting to dig* (which included flying from the first area to the 2nd, but that was not even very far, they are side by side)
5th.. You might even want to do a search on wowhead for gear that requires archeology as a profession, and hunt those items down for use with future characters. The caster robe is very OP for leveling, surpassing even Bind to Account Heirlooms for pure dmg per second output and stats. PvP enemies will HATE you, especially if you take engineering as a profession... We are talking (fully enchanted) 103k chaos bolt at lv82 vs an 84 DK.. Needless to say, it discouraged him from farming clothies. LOL.

To keep it simple for the 99% of people that come here for a straight answer -
- The Vial of Sands recipe has a
2% drop rate
- The Vial of Sands recipe is
Bind on Pickup (BoP)
- You must have a
minimum Alchemy Level 525
to learn the recipe. To achieve this you will need to learn Zen Master Alchemist from the Alchemy Trainer, which requires a minimum
Character Level 80
.
- You must have a
minimum Archaeology Level 450
for the digsites to start 'spawning' in Uldum to get the Tol'vir fragments. To achieve this you will need to learn Zen Master Archaeology from the Archaeology Trainer, which requires a minimum
Character Level 80
.
- You need to be minimum Character Level 82 to get to Uldum via the portal (get the starter quest from capital city notice board). Otherwise you can fly yourself there.
- There is a known glitch, which Blizzard does not intend on fixing, which sometimes allows the Vial of Sands recipe to drop for people who have Archaeology but NOT Alchemy. The recipe was designed to be 'smart loot' and drop for Alchemists only, but this is not the case. This means that some non-alchemists can have the BoP recipe in their bank, and at a later stage maybe drop their existing professions, take up Alchemy, and learn the recipe themselves.

Just registered to share some important info. Several weeks ago desperate of all the fruitless digging I started looking all over the Internet for some help - the digsite reset thing was gone so I basically found nothing until I stumbled upon a post in some forum (I can't even remember what it was but credit to whoever discovered it). Basically you save all your
坎努匹克陶罐
which have only mummified organs (open to check but don't take it out) and just let them sit in your inventory (haven't tried with the bank).
When a patch hits (don't know if it only applies to major ones) the loot in the jar gets resets and you have a second chance to find the recipe. I had saved 5 jars and the morning after 6.0.2. became live I started checking and what do you know - the second one I tried had the

I was beyond myself with joy.

Go this on jar #7. I did a mix of Uldum digs and turning in restored artifacts. I highly suggest Draenor digs as with MoP artifacts you will occasionally get artifact quests that you turn into your garrison for display and net yourself 3 restored artifacts. It can be a long grind but very definitely worth it. I treated myself with my first Sandstone Drake ( I had already gotten the materials ahead of time in anticipation). If you do all the farming for mats you can net yourself about 11k a mount which is not bad.
Happy hunting.

Confirmed by GM today. Only drops for people who have alchemy as a profession. No level required but 450 Archaeology to get Tol'vir sites, and as the item says, 525 Alchemy to learn the recipe.

So this is what I recommend for people wanting this recipe in the WoD expansion...this recipe is much easier to get now than previously.
Obviously you need archaeology as previously discussed, but there are a couple of things that can help you get it quicker, which really helped me. Initially, use your archaeology to survey digsites in Kalimdor only, which will spawn new digsites....as soon as a digsite appears in Uldum, fly there and survey that digsite. Repeat this process.
I read about the grind involved in finding this recipe and know that it is only found in Canopic Jars. However, hold onto any Tol'Vir hieroglyphics that you come across whilst farming (these can also be bought on AH for extortionate prices).
The key for me, was getting as many Restored Artifact Crates as possible and then going to the Archaeology vendor in Stormshield, Draenor and buying Tol'Vir fragments with your crates.
It's an NPC right next to the archaeology trainer. From him, you can buy Tol'Vir fragments with restored artifacts. Each purchase got me between 5 and 10 fragments at a cost of only 1 restored artifact. Having up until that point only made 1 canopic jar from a handful of Uldum digsites, I went to Stormshield to buy the Tol'Vir fragments and quickly got my second canopic jar, which contained the recipe.
I'm not saying you'll get the recipe from your second canopic jar, I'm saying that keeping and using your restored artifacts to buy more Tol'Vir fragments is your way forward in this and will get you the recipe quicker. If you already have lots of restored artifact crates when you get to the point where you can do Uldum digsites, use them on buying the Tol'Vir fragments if you really want this recipe and see what happens.
There were people telling me there is a Pandaria archaeology dude that could help with Uldum digsite spawns but it honestly didn't help me at all.
Although it wasn't easy getting the recipe, it's not as hard as it used to be. Good luck!

I'm averaging a whole one canopic jar per 25 Tol'Vir digs/solves and I've just hit my fourth jar. So as you can imagine I'm really starting to get more than a little annoyed. Given up keeping a tab of the amount of hours wasted so far.

Just got this 30 minutes ago after farming for exactly 8 days (avg 5-6 hours/day) using the Pandaria method of collecting/turning in crates.
On the way:
- 3x rare tol'vir artifacts (to my luck both the mummy hand pet and the battle tank mount were in the 3)
- 141 common tol'vir artifacts of which 24 were canoptic jars
- finished all mantid collector achi's and most mogu collector ones (due to the lvl 100 sha mob that rarely spawns when you pick up an artifact and drops mogu fragment)
- History of the Mantid achi completed as well

I had farmed 9 Jars with an alchemy level almost null (~15) only to find out that you do need a minimum level to see the recipe. Went to train until 525+, came back and found 1 more Jar with no recipe in it. I decided to re-open the 8 Jars I had in my bank, the recipe was now in one of them.

After Mists of Pandaria, this achievement is pretty easy to get. All you need is the
Alchemy
profession (not entirely sure if it needs to be capped, but mine is at 600), the ability to fly in Pandaria (you can buy this option at the
Shrine of Two Moons
or the
Shrine of Seven Stars
) and you have to have completed at least one Tol'vir digsite.
Instead of doing the old pre-MoP routine of doing as many digsites around Kalimdor as possible to unlock the Uldum ones (so much Night Elf stuff.... -____-) you can just do any Pandaren, Mogu or Mantid digsite anywhere in Pandaria, right-click the completed Pandaren artifact to turn it into a
Restored Artifact
and then hand it in to
Brann Bronzebeard
in the
Vale of Eternal Blossoms
. (NOTE: If you haven't done any Lorewalker rep grinding yet, you can find Brann and the rest of
the Lorewalkers
at an upper level of the building where the
Mogu'shan Palace
is situated.)
For each one
Restored Artifact
handed in, you get one
Crate of Tol'vir Archaeology Fragments
. Each Crate nets you about six to nine
Tol'vir Archaeology Fragments
, as it would if you were actually doing a Tol'vir digsite, and there's even a chance for a
Tol'vir Hieroglyphic
to drop, which is always useful.
OTHER NOTE: If you're grinding for Archaeology achievements for other races,
Restored Artifacts
can also be turned in for other Crates of Archaeology Fragments for all the races, so this method works with multiple goals.
LEGION EDIT: You don't need to be contained to Pandaren sites-- you can also do any digsite from MoP, Draenor or Legion, crate the artefacts and turn em in for Tol'vir ones <3
Happy hunting!

Found it inside my 13th jar, looks really cool.
Don't believe in the 2% drop chance, I am pretty convinced it is way higher than that, otherwise people wouldn't find it as often as they do (first to 20th jar).

To make this recipe you need a mix of vendor mats and crafted items. The vendor mats (from the innkeeper in NE Uldum) cost 29,000 gold. You cannot get them anywhere else. Expect this to cost around 37,000 gold to make so when you see it advertised in trade for less than that, be suspicious. The actual mount is pretty ugly too.

1 Recipe: Vial of the Sands
It is still out there in 6.2.3 Draenor. It really is. But, golly!
Find a night where you have a few hours to yourself, put on some good music (or in my case, an interesting lecture) pour a relaxing drink, expect to refill that drink a few times over the next few hours, and click, move, click, move... Most importantly: plan to repeat this night many, many times.
While there are many (most of them old) strategies for doing this in Kalimdor, I recommend Pandaria. I've tried both, and because I doubted my data, I tried both a few times. Given that your alchemist is a mage, both rake in your Tol'vir finds at about the same rate. (If you're not a mage, or if you ARE a mage but don't have all Kalimdor QUEST portals opened in Orgrimmar, don't even bother w/ Kalimdor.) However, despite your class, I found Pandaria far more relaxed. There are a handful of large sites, one Mogu, the rest Pandaren. Only one Pandaren site in Jade Forest really annoys you (the giant site south of Tian Monastery set around a SUPER annoying mountain). But most of the sites are very small and quickly completed. Some of the Mantid sites have mere steps between all the finds. And the distance between sites is minimal.
Literally FARMING motes at Sunsong Ranch was a nice perk in MoP, but has since been triple nerfed and is no longer worth your time. That time is now better spent autoflying (autorun on a flying mount) toward your next dig site.
Since I took a leisurely approach to this, it took me about three years (shortly after MoP launched). However, if you pace how quickly you find your "finds" (with each rare counting for 3) I'd wager you can expect to get your recipe around 150, RNG dependent.
Now to farm the mats...

I just received my recipe after 34 solves. I started my quest to obtain this recipe on August 16th, 2014. I've taken breaks from grinding out restored artifacts over the past year and a half, but I would like to share my stats, my method, and some ideas with you all. Perhaps it'll shed some additional light on this seemingly elusive recipe (for me, at least)!
Interesting(?) Statistics:

孩童皇帝的戒指
-
1 Solve

-
1 Solve
皂石圣甲虫项链
-

-

沙城
-

雕花弯刀柄首
-
29 Solves
坎努匹克陶罐
-
34 Solves
Assuming a 10% drop rate and 34 solves, the probability of
not
seeing the recipe would be:
0.90^34 = 0.0278 or 2.78%
This means that I would have about a 97% chance to see the recipe after 34 solves.
Assuming a 2% drop rate and 34 solves, the probability of
not
seeing the recipe would be:
0.98^34 = 0.503 or 50.3%
This would mean that I would have close to a 50% chance to see the recipe after 34 solves.
I don't know what the actual drop rate is (assuming the 2% drop rate on wowhead as of 1/1/2016 is inaccurate due to players opening up
坎努匹克陶罐
s without alchemy). If it's 10%, I should probably never go to Las Vegas. If it's 2%, then I simply won a coin flip. I would go on to say that I imagine the drop rate is around 2%. Either that, or I am extremely unlucky.
The Method I Used & Some Additional Ideas:
I used the Pandaria farming method by farming Mantid Archaeology dig sites in the Dread Wastes and Townlong Steppes. The method has been described here, but to reiterate, I purchased
螳螂妖神器猎人的装备箱
from
布莱恩·铜须
. This item contains the item that only spawns Mantid dig sites,
螳螂妖遗物声波定位仪
. If you do not have Mantid dig sites already, go ahead and use
游学者的地图
. This will cause your current sites to be "randomized" into all Mantid sites. I also searched my AH for cheap
螳螂妖琥珀裂片
. These will also help expedite the grinding process.
When you solve any races' artifacts in Pandaria (and WoD), they can be "used" and subsequently turned into
修复的遗物
. These are what we use as currency to purchase
一箱托维尔考古碎片
also sold by
布莱恩·铜须
.
修复的遗物
s can also be used as currency with
瑟卡
and
格拉吉斯
found in Warspear and Stormshield respectively. These two NPCs might seem redundant, but I was able to put them to good use as I will explain a little later. Purchasing
一箱托维尔考古碎片
is what we're grinding for, since it contains both
托维尔符文
s and
托维尔考古碎片
that will then get us on the infamous RNG hype train.
托维尔符文
s currently sell for just over 1k gold each on my server's AH, and according to the Undermine Journal, the global median currently sits at 700g each as of January 1st, 2016. Needless to say, I did not purchase many hieroglyphics at full asking price.
Another thing to note is that Pandaria and WoD artifacts have a chance to be "pristine" when solved. For example,
先祖护符
has a chance to proc
完好如初的先祖护符
. These pristine solves can be turned in for 3
修复的遗物
and the race's keystone to boot via a quest that will be given by the artifact itself. The catch is that pristine artifact quests are not repeatable on the same character. That is, a character cannot complete
完好如初的先祖护符
over and over again.
I used this idea with WoD archaeology solves, as I had run out of pristine Mantid solves. However, since pristine solves are based on specific characters, I used stockpiled
鸦人考古碎片
,
德拉诺氏族考古碎片
, and
食人魔考古碎片
contained in
矿车
. Across all of my alts, I was able to purchase a massive one-time burst of
一箱托维尔考古碎片
from Srikka in Warspear since flying all the way out to the Seat of Knowledge just wasn't going to cut it. I sent all
托维尔符文
s to my alchemist/farmer to help expedite the process (and to save a little gold).
By no means would I say that this should be a primary method of farming, but it is something to consider if your alts have stockpiled WoD archaeology currency.
Furthermore, alt characters must have 600 skill level in archaeology to buy other races' crates using
修复的遗物
AND characters must have archaeology to see currency drop from mine carts in the garrison.
Conclusion:
It's been a crazy grind (I'm not creative enough to write a story about it, please forgive me!), but to those flying around Townlong Steppes and the Dread Wastes, I wish you god speed and I hope you find your recipe soon!
tl;dr:
Used the Mantid dig site farming strategy
Took 34 solves to get the recipe
Used stockpiled WoD archaeology currency on alts for a chance at a pristine solve.
Alts must have 600 skill level in archaeology to buy other races' currency AND alts must have the profession to see currency drop from mine carts.
Sent my alchemist/farmer with extra
托维尔符文
s from alt pristine solves
Would not grind again

Here I'd like to discuss the
time aspect
of obtaining the recipe. I suggest you'll read up on some of the other great comments obtaining the strategies for it before looking at this.
I thought I came here to deter people from ever farming this recipe but as you'll see at the end, I'm now torn. I got mine on May the Fourth be with you, this is my recount about it.
1. First, you'll spend a couple of hours leveling archaeology from 1-600, assuming that you haven't already done that. This is pretty straight forward, you'll dig and you'll solve.
Try to make your travels easier by using portal devices such as a hearthstone and cloak of coordination. I used a mage so I had the option of using portals as well.
I did it in Eastern Kingdoms (0-300), Outland (300-425), Kalimdor (425-600) and it takes a handful of hours of playing perhaps
5-6 hours.
2. Secondly. you'll grind up your Lorewalker reputation to exalted. This is quite easy and pleasant, the addon
HandyNotes_Lorewalker
will make this part much easier. The grind is simply flying around in pandaria and pressing various outdoor scrolls. It'll take you around
2-3 hours
.
3. Now the grind may commence. Remember to take advantage of your hearthstone, I put mine at shado pan garrison.
You'll make around
1200 mantid archaeology fragments an hour
this includes keystones. This translates to 24 crates of restored artifacts an hour.
Each crate will give you a crate of Tol'vir fragments which contains an average of 8.2 fragments including keystones. So you'll make roughly
196.8 Tol'vir fragments an hour.
But here's the cookie, unless you'll get very lucky you're going to need thousands of those fragments to get your recipe.
I solved
four Tol'vir rares
:
Scepter of Azj'Aqir - a nice ground mount.
Crawling Claw - a great pet which I caged and sold for 65k.
Ring of the Boy Emperor - a quite boring ring.
Pendant of the Scarab Storm - a fun little toy
With 150 fragments for each rare this means
600 fragments.
I solved
103 Tol'vir common artifacts
13 Castle of Sand
16 Janopic Jars (Number 16 contained the recpie)
14 Engraved Scimitar Hilt
10 Tiny Oasis Mosaic Jars
17 Soapstone Scarab Necklace
23 Cat Statue with Emerald Eyes
10 Sketch of a Desert Palace
With 45 fragments for each common this means
4635 fragments
And a total of
5235 Tol'vir fragments
Which tallies up to
26 and a half hour
of grinding mantid fragments.
In total it took me
35 hours of grinding
to obtain the recipe.
It may take you a lot faster or you'll be spending twice that time before obtaining the recipe.
Considering the daunting grind I thought I would come here to deter people from undertaking this grind. But now, a week after I've obtained the recipe I've already sold four vials for 60k each making a profit of 15k / vial. There's very little in World of Warcraft that allows you to make a profit of 60k a week by simply crafting an item. And being a collector myself I also understand those who wants all alchemy recipes in game.
So I'll end this with: if you're dedicated to crafting and the auction house and will actually make and sell these this awful grind might pay of in just a couple of months. Or if your a dedicated collector with almost all alchemy recipes go for it. If not I strongly deter you from undertaking this. And if you want the mount yourself just go and buy it.

Got mine today. I got my alchemist up to Pandaria skill level, and mostly just ground out Pandaren Restored Artifacts since I can fly there and it's quicker than flying all over Kalimdor. Bought Tol'vir fragments from Brann Bronzebeard, grabbed Tol'vir Hieroglyphics from the AH whenever I could.
Some stats for those who want 'em:-
Pendant of the Scarab Storm x1
Ring of the Boy Emperor x1
Scepter of Azj'Aquir x1
Canopic Jar x9
Soapstone Scarab Necklace x9
Castle of Sand x9
Cat Statue with Emerald Eyes x6
Engraved Scimitar Hilt x10
Sketch of a Desert Palace x3
Tiny Oasis Mosaic x8
So that's a total of 57 solves before I got it. It's doable, if you have something nice to watch on youtube as you fly around Pandaria on autopilot. I recommend the mod 'Archy', it integrates with TomTom to route you to the next digsite and makes solving a simple click.

FINALLY after 16 jars, working on it off-n-on since June 2014, the pattern dropped for me tonight! Yippee!

SorceressGM
I began digging for this particular item last night. I am already a high level Alchemist (nearly 800), but my Arch was sitting at about 350.
After clearing some other digsites in Kalimdor I ended up with two sites available in Uldum. Between the two I had enough fragments to create one canopic jar. And by this time my Arch had leveled to about 550.
The recipe dropped from that one jar. I'm not sure if the RNG has changed considering the age of this recipe, but I feel super lucky after having read some of these comments, even if they're old.
I may have squealed when I opened the jar.

Got mine with the first canopic jar using the pandaria/mantid method. I recomend using this strat since it saves a lot of time.

Here is what I did to get the recipe: Used my arch on every digsite I came across around Azeroth, Outland and Draenor. You get
修复的遗物
and then use them to get

from a Archeology trainer. From the crate you get the fragments that you need to solve and hopefully get a

with the recipe inside. It worked for me. On the first try actually :) Good luck!

Today I received this recipe. The current patch is 7.3.0. Below are some statistics and my thoughts on the grind.
I farmed this recipe with the Mantid artifact trade-in method. It took me around 4 hours /played to go from 0-600 archaeology and another 13 hours /played to obtain the recipe from Tol'vir solves.
The Statistics
Using the Mantid method I would gather an average of 28 restored artifacts per hour (not including "pristine" quest rewards). Each restored artifact would convert to an average of 7 Tol'vir fragments, yielding around 196 fragments per hour. I solved a total of 337 Mantid artifacts and 62 Tol'vir artifacts by the end of the farm (the 62nd being my final Canopic Jar). Below are my Tol'vir solve numbers:
Rares: 3 (In order: Mount, BoA ring, Scarab Toy)
Sketch of a Desert Palace: 11
Engraved Hilt: 6
Cat Statue: 8
Soapstone Necklace: 6
Tiny Oasis Mosaic: 10
Castle of Sand: 10
Canopic Jar: 8
Per my results, Canopics Jars had a 13% chance of being the "next" solve. I do believe that the stated 10% drop rate for Vial of the Sands within Canopic jars is likely true. Using the formula where n=Canopic Jars, one can calculate the relative probability of seeing the recipe drop by the nth jar (however, your likelihood of getting it from one certain jar never exceeds 10%, be it your first or fiftieth attempt). Given my numbers, I had a 57% chance of seeing the recipe by the 8th jar, and it did indeed drop, so one could say that I have "average" luck (but not on brewfest mounts... a different story entirely!).
Game-relevant Advice
I completed this grind on a level 110 rogue with decent gear, which really has no effect outside of deterring players from the enemy faction from attacking me. I did complete this on a PvP server and occasionally saw players of the enemy faction also farming it, however it seemed that no one was looking for trouble and there were no exchanges in PvP. If one is scared of PvP engagement I recommend using a rogue for archaeology as you can survey while in stealth. The only time stealth would break is if I were to loot an artifact or mount up. I have not tested druid's cat form, however that might be even more advantageous as they enjoy a given 30% bonus movement speed. They might even be able to survey while in travel form, I'm not sure, but it might be worth investigating for someone who has both options available. Regardless of class, selecting talents or specs that give a passive movement boost might be worth it. Just food for thought.
I used my Dalaran hearthstone to get back to Dalaran every hour and try my hand at Tol'vir solves. My normal hearthstone was set for Klaxxi'vess to cut my return time shorter than taking the Dalaran portal to Pandaria. Finally, I used the addon Arh to help "plot" where the artifact might be located. Although it hasn't been updated on Curse since 7.1 it still works in 7.3, so I say give it a shot.
Farming Advice
I would farm in one hour increments, hearth to Dalaran, and then get up to stretch, get water, read a magazine article, or go outside. I made my breaks a minimum of 10 minutes at a time to retain my sanity during this rather brutal grind. Only upon returning to the game would I trade my artifacts in for Tol'vir fragments, solve, then determine whether or not I had to go "back out there." I tried not to think of the farm while I was on my breaks and remain optimistic - I feel like if I knew during my break that the grind wasn't yet over I would have felt exasperated instead of "recovering."
I would recommend picking up a second monitor if you don't already have one. I got an old one from a local goodwill for $10 and it has been a godsend. This is a task that can easily be completed absentmindedly and it helps to focus on something else. Watching one hour shows or breaking up a documentary into one hour increments is what I did to pass the time. It made a huge difference in how I felt about spending my time and completing this farm. If you can't use a second monitor I recommend getting cosy and settling into the mood, chatting with guild mates, etc..
Is this farm for you?
This was pretty seriously trying on my willpower toward the end. I went into this grind with unrealistic expectations (0-600 arch + receiving the recipe in 2 days) and those expectations were quickly broken during the Mantid artifact farming. If you want this mount for yourself and only intend on making one you
will
get it faster by farming the gold to buy one from the auction house. I planned on making multiple as gifts for long time friends so I stuck with it through the end but it wasn't easy. I nearly quit toward the end, but I think I stuck with it solely due to the sunken cost fallacy. So whether or not that works for you or against you might determine how your dedication to this grind. On the upside, completing the farm for this recipe makes farming the mats super enjoyable comparatively.
Best of luck!

There is an old highly rated comment below by Juranda describing an easier way of farming for this recipe. It suggests that using his method you can have the recipe in about 2 days. For those looking to farm this recipe - this is false. Many patches ago there was a bug that assisted in your search, but he does not mention it, and strictly using his method below, you will have to be really lucky to get the recipe in two days even if you played 16 hours / day.
Some details can be found under the Canopic Jar comments from a poster named Pindip, about jar drop rates. See:
坎努匹克陶罐
#comments
He claims he can farm 25 restored artifacts per hour. I farm about 16 per hour. He also mentions buying restored artifacts with Spirit of Harmony; however, this method has been removed from the game!
So the math:
Given Pindip's figures, you average one jar per 55 restored artifacts, you will need to farm for over two hours before getting a single jar at
his
rate. At 16/hr like I farm, 3.43 hours per jar on average (my Alchemist is a well geared lvl 110, so no mob slows me at all). Wowhead shows a 2% drop rate per jar so here is a table of probabilities for the math challenged:
20 Jars = 33%
35 Jars = 50%
69 Jars = 75%
149 Jars = 95%
227 Jars = 99%
342 Jars = 99.9%
So at my farm rate of 16/hour you'd need to farm for 120 hours to have a 50% chance of getting it or 512 hours for a 95% chance.
One final note, don't be stupid and amass jars before opening them. Open them as you get them, because if you get lucky, your farming ends right then and there. If you insanely amass 342 jars and find the recipe in the first one you farmed, Darwin is desperately looking for you...

For Legion, do the same as with Pandaria.. You get only one map to search and to dig, so solve a lot and trade.
I found that the best time to do this is during Hallows End with the Magic Broom, you dont have fly mount casting time, its instant.
You can farm this using the Suramar archelogy sites... just wait till two of them are the ones on the far right (Crimson Thicket, Meredil and Gates of the City).. so you "lock" the remaining one to the other sites, which are pretty close and are easy to dig, once you get the idea, you know where to dig.. Use the boxes from the solves to get Tol'vir parts and cross your fingers... its faster than grinding in Wastes or trying to farm in Uldum directly..
GL HF!
Edit: Added info on Hallows End

Just got this less than 10 mins ago. Today is my first day back after resubbing after a year(ish) mia. I did all kinds of math to figure out how man artifacts id need to farm this (9/10000 chance, because the rng is 3 tiered) and I got it on my 1st canoptic jar. I normally wouldnt post but Im so excited I had to tell someone! I farmed this for so long prior to mia Im out of control excited to finally have it. I even tried to scam GMs claiming i got it and got DC and it was gone after i logged back in. SO STOKED!

Just got this on my 18th jar. Used the mantid method which seems to be the fastest. If you start it, don't underestimate the potential effort necessary. After 10 jars, I got really bored, but at that point it was hard to give up(sunk cost). Worst thing was to think about the statistics. Finding jars are independent events. Every day you start again grinding, the chances are the same as yesterday. Yes, with the law of large numbers, eventually you will be lucky, but there is no way in determining when that will be.
Tolvir solved:
1 Mummified monkey paw
1 Pendant of the scarab storm
1 Ring of the boy emperor
1 Scepter of Azj'Aqir
21 Castle of Sand
20 Cat Statue with Emerald Eyes
23 Soapstone Scarab Necklace
22 Tiny Oasis Mosaic Jars
21 Engraved Scimitar Hilt
18 Canopic Jar
13 Sketch of a Desert Palace
Needed 746 Mantid and a couple of extra Mogu (from Ancient Haunts) solves for it. I consider a rate of 20 Mantid/hour realistic, could be more, sometime its less, depends on your focus. Equals to more than 37 hours for me, so go figure

So I went from 0 to 600 archaeology and the best way to do it would probably be start in the 1-300 zones and then move to dreanor when you can. I did not have flying but the travel times were not too bad. The artifacts you get in Dreanor can be boxed up and traded for Tol'vir fragments. Do this until you can do the mantid farming method in Pandaria.
I had about 8 artifacts before I got my first canopic jar, and by the grace of RNGesus, my recipe was in that first jar. I had 600 arch and like 650 alch at the time of the drop.
Leveling archaeology was by far the worst part, best of luck!

Litteraly took me like 6-8 hours to get this recipe... what i did:
1. On my pally (this was my character with a max level alchemy) i learned archaeology and leveled up on the Broken Isles from 1 to 525 (this is the minium required to dig in Pandaria), this took me like 4 hours or so, the reason i leveled here was because the digsites locations vary depending on the archaeology quest active that weekend, the pro here is that because of this you will only get artifacts of the same race (demonic, highborne or highmountain tauren) so you wont have to travel a lot. The con is that all these races ask you for a lot of artifacts fragments in order to complete a single artifact.
2. Once you reach 525 of archeology the next step was going back to pandaria and start raising my rep with The Lorewalkers which i didnt have... it only took me like 40-60 min to reach exalted it´s an easy step, the reason you need this is because of the item
螳螂妖神器猎人的装备箱
, this item contains
螳螂妖遗物声波定位仪
which you will need to farm
修复的遗物
that you are going to trade to
一箱托维尔考古碎片
.
3. When you reach exalted the last step is start to farming all Mantid Digsites in Pandaria and convert your Tol´vir artifact fragments and wait until you get
坎努匹克陶罐
...
To tell the truth i got it on my first jar so thats the reason why i got it in less than 8 hours... but it can take you more time for this... so GL to all of you guys who are trying to find this recipe.
My native language is not english sorry for all my mistakes in grammar and ortography...
Edit: 15 minutes after i got this recipe i went to fish some

I was expecting to have a bad time trying to get this. But second Tol'vir rare was canopic jar and that first jar had the recipe. Farming for the materials took way longer than getting the recipe for me.

As of Legion wouldn't this be faster grinded in suramar (as long as you have legion flying) rather than MOP?
I see all these comments about MOP but, suramar has 3 spawn points alone. With the extra spawn points a person can bounce from place to place way faster than flying across MOP, and in turn get more crates per hour.
I maybe wrong(i might be missing something) but, if am please explain why MOP is faster.

I found my recipe this past Sunday (7/22/18) after so many weeks of "on again, off again" searching. I found it in my 7th Canopic Jar. I had been using the Mantid method in Pandaria, and buying Tol'vir fragments from the vendor. The exchange rate for this process is painful, so I woke up Sunday morning thinking I would try the old-fashioned method in Uldum. I saw 1 dig site in Uldum already, cleared 3 dig sites in Kalimdor and they opened up 2 more in Uldum, for a total of 3 Tol'vir sites. After clearing all 3 sites, one of those opened up another Uldum site. I solved the tiny mosaic that I started the day with, then solved a cat eye statue, but the following one was another jar. I completed that in the middle of my last Uldum dig site, and it had the recipe in it.
Call her superstitious (which is likely the case), but my wife believes that being in Uldum when I solved and opened the jar made a difference. I don't think that is the case, but for those out there that are still searching and on the verge of giving up, why not try it? Even if you buy a ton of Tol'vir fragments in Pandaria and then fly over to Uldum to uncrate them, why not give it a shot? Maybe blizz wants us to be standing in those "sands of time" to find the recipe.
If that sounds ridiculous, then just keep trying and don't give up, even though you may be very tempted!

Should you ever ask yourself: do I want to farm this? No. You don't.
Just ask around, some people apparently are very lucky. They'll craft one for you.
Been doing this for 5 whole days now, using the Mantid method.
Never felt so much D3 in this game before.
Edit: Got it at the very end of day 5. Had an actual laughing fit. Stats:

Does anybody know if it is necessary to still have ---Alchemy--- AND +++Level 525 (or 150 or whatever the Cata Alchemy level is now) in BFA for the recipe to drop?
I've never actually done this, and BfA is getting a tad bit boring to me, so I'm looking into things to do.

Do you have to level alchemy all the way to cataclysm ( inclued all expansion ) or leveling cata is enough ?
Reciped tells 75 cataclysm required to learn but what about the drop ?

All mounts will be Account wide when "Mists" hits. Not sure if this one is included in that, but can't see why it wouldn't be (okay, I can see a couple things they might not allow).

For those asking what are the requirements for dropping the item after BfA - I just got my recipe today after 12 jars and 107 Tol'Vir solves.
The char I got it has 75 Cata Alchemy, without any ranks in Alchemy from previous expansions.
I used the Mantid digsites method as it appears to be the fastest.

I submitted a screen shot showing the drop I just got today, dunno if it will be approved, but at any rate a few things:
1. I've been farming this for years, foolishly doing so on this character (Timotius) that didn't have Alchemy! haha I know, stupid right? Anyway, caught on a year ago to this stupidity but still no joy.
2. These past weeks I tried a few things: a. I made sure this alt I have for Alchemy had the full training of even BFA archaeology, dunno if it makes a difference but there you go. b. I achieved the achievement "Unearthing Uldum" a few days ago, then did a few archaeology sites on Kalimdor until a site in Uldum popped up. No canopic jar then, but after I completed the site on Uldum and got some trash, the Canopic Jar came up as the next solve. c. Then hearthed back to Tradewinds Market, got the training up to 950, and bought some crates with Restored Artifact crates, enough to solve the Canopic Jar up on my list. And then bam, as the screenshot I uploaded shows, drop of the recipe! Yay, me.
So, dunno if any of the above matters (probably not) but, if my screenshot ever gets approved, it'll show the recipie still drops as of this date (patch). So anyway, good luck! I'm off to farm the mats now, seems like that will be a challenge in of itself. Good luck!

I just got mine today after almost three solid days of farming, but only one use of the mantid gear you buy from Brann.
Here are the numbers I've opened if anyone cares for research, etc.
Rares:
I only completed 2 of the possible 6. And if you are doing the Mantid grind, it is a complete slog to get through 150 fragments per rare.
I completed both the Pendant of the Scarab Storm, and the Ring of the Boy Emperor.
Commons:
Engraved Scimitar Hilt - 4 Completions
Soapstone Scarab Necklace - 3 Completions
Castle of Sand - 3 Completions
Tiny Oasis Mosaic - 2 Completions
Cat Statue with Emerald Eyes - 3 Completions
Sketch of a Desert Palace - 1 Completions
Canopic Jar - 3 Completions
If you figure maybe an average of 5 fragments per traded box to Brann, you can estimate how many Mantid boxes you should work up before going back to Brann.
My Tips -
Set a Hearthstone to The Golden Lantern. This is is the Shrine of Seven Stars (86, 63). Work up a bunch of Mantid boxes and hearth back, then fly to Brann. Exchange, (do or don't get the recipe) fly back to a flight point and fly west again to rinse and repeat.
Always use the Mantid Amber pieces you get for that +20 Fragment boost as you are digging.

I have:
75/75 Cataclysm Alchemy
0/0 Northrend
0/0 Outland
1/300 Alchemy (Classic/Vanilla)
My Archaeology is 689/800.
WilI I be able to find the recipe in the Canopic Jar AND will I be able to learn it as my Alchemy is?

So I have been trying to farm the
阿兹亚基节杖
for a while now. I am currently at 392 solves with 60 completed
坎努匹克陶罐
. I have had alchemy this entire time but only for BFA. Since I wasn't focusing on trying to get the recipe, I didn't really look much into it and thought the drop rate was just insanely low. However since I got bored of farming, I went and picked up Cataclysm Alchemy but didn't level it all to see if it would drop. Within 3 jars I got the recipe.
So for those wondering:
You do NOT need 75/75 Cataclysm Alchemy for the recipe to drop.
BUT it might seem that you at least need Cataclysm Alchemy learned
.
Also you don't need any of the previous expansion ranks either. I was 1/300 Alchemy when it dropped and only had 175/175 Zandalari Alchemy learned.
Proof image
I can't confirm whether of not you need Cataclysm Alchemy learned since I saw it drop after I learned it. But since it's so simple to learn it from the trainer you might as well.

I would like to say that I play WoW since 2011 and use Wowhead from the start. I created this account on Wowhead now (2019) JUST TO MAKE THIS WARNING.
I got the recipe after dozens of hours of grinding. I got so happy that finally i could have this mount, but surprise surprise, there still some (lots of) grinding ahead.
Getting the recipe is just step 1.
Getting all reagents for the potion will take several hours or you will spend thousands of gold. All reagents are Cataclysm expansion features. NO ONE plays that anymore. Which means you need to grind it by yourself or buy the few available reagents at AH for a huge amount of money.
And if you are grinding this by yourself, remember you need 2 heroes to do that: The 1st one is the one that has alchemy/herbs that you used to get the recipe. The second one needs mining. One of those also need fishing.
I DO NOT RECOMMEND ANYBODY TO FOLLOW THIS PATH! JUST BUY THE POTION IN THE AH AND BE HAPPY WITHOUT THIS MANY HOURS SEARCHING FOR THE RECIPE AND REAGENTS!
If you think you will profit on this, think again. For each potion you will spend too many hours in a dead zone.

Successfully looted this today after 5 solid days of profession leveling and farming, starting from scratch in both archaeology and alchemy. Here are my steps!
-Have a lvl 120 character (makes things simple)
-Use
this guide
to blitz through cataclysm alchemy to max level pretty quickly. It costs a fair bit for the raw materials, but they are not too difficult to farm if you have herbalism on one of your toons.
-Level archaeology to 525 in Broken
Shores
Isles (all the digsites stay in the same zone, makes it quick and easy)
-Go to Pandaria and use a
handy dandy guide like this
to find all of the Lorewalker scrolls around the continent to reach exalted status with them, which only takes about an hour.
-Once you're exalted, you can trade 2
Restored Artifacts
for a
Mantid Artifact Hunter's Kit
, sold by
Brann Bronzebeard
at the Seat of Knowledge above the Mogu'Shan Palace in Vale of Eternal Blossoms (right by Lorewalker Cho), which will make all Pandarian digsites occur in Townlong Steppes and Dread Wastes for the next 24 hours. The digsites will also all be Mantid (making artifact restoration easier/quicker).
-Go to Timeless Isle and kill a ton of
Burning Berserkers
until one of them drops
Foragers Gloves
, which cuts down on gathering time (including surveying) by about 50%.
-DIG DIG DIG DIG DIG DIG.
-Turn in crated artifacts to
Mr. Bronzebeard
in exchange for
crates of Tol'vir fragments
, which you can then use to restore Tol'vir artifacts to get the beloved
Canopic Jar
for a chance at the recipe!
My recipe came inside of the 12th Canopic Jar, which was the 74th Tol'vir restoration, which took me 470 restored artifact exchanges and approximately 36 hours of game time from start to finish. However, through the process I ended up lucking into a handful of toys, a ton of achievements, and even another mount from the
Scepter of Azj'Aqir
.
Happy hunting, stay vigilant, never give up, never surrender.

I think doing this in BFA zones with flying is far preferable to the old Mantid method. Dig sites have 9 nodes instead of 6, Zandalar and Kul Tiras seems smaller than the Dread Wastes/Townlong combo, no need to waste two finds each day on the kit to set the zones and it's much easier to travel around with more flight points and the use of the whistle. Plus FWIW you'll max out the Archaeology skill as opposed to being maxed at 600 in Pandaria.
Don't have the recipe yet but I'm definitely doing solves much quicker than I was in Pandaria, and since my hearth is to Dazar'aolr, no extra travel to do the trades for Tol'vir fragments.

I got it with the 3th canopic!
I was alchemist with max skill (also Shadowlands) and then I lvlt archaeology from 1-625 in Legion. I opened 1 canopic and got nothing.
2 Days later I wanted to try it again and I was thinking if I should do pandaria with this special reputation item (always mantis artifacts) or if I cap legion archaeology to 700 first.
I watched Mandalorian series and decided to do legion and cap legion archaelogy to 700 while I was watching this series. I thought it would need weeks till it would drop anyway.
After 2 episodes I was 700 and I had 22 boxes with artifact-fragments which I traded in Dazar ´alor (Zandalar) for Tol ´vir artifact boxes. (I had the idea to even skill archaelogy to 850 cap there but first I wanted to open the 22, so I had still skill 700).
The first Tol ´vir artifact was a rare ring :( I was insulting the developers on that point.
Luckily the second Tol´vir artifact was a canopic. I disabled fast/auto looting and I opened it (all in all 3th canopic) and I got the recipe :D!
I needed only 20 of these 22 boxes with artefacts.

I got the recipe from my first jar. It took about 100 crates for the tol'vir fragments to even get the one jar. I have Cataclysm alchemy at 75 and my Archaeology at 601. It took about 8 hours of farming. I was about to take a break after opening the jar since it was my first one. I was shocked it even dropped that fast.

Edit:

Finally got it!
For me it took 2 hours of grind per 1 jar, so decided to get 2 jars a day, with several 1 hour sessions.
I was opening jars with Auto-Loot off (!) and saving opened jars in the bank, so just in case I could have another chance for all jars with patch containers item reroll (for example, 9.1 coming in 10 days).
Honestly I was getting depressed even with listening to self-development podcasts on YouTube while grinding -- but at least it was a very productive time in the end. And here I recommend you guys getting something similar like success/psychology/philosophy audiobook or YouTube channel (instead of any music).
Good luck!

Whoever came up with the idea for the grindfest involved in getting this recipe should be punished by having to find a piece of hay in a needle stack.

Judging by all the comments and by my experience, the recipe drop rate is actually pretty high. I dropped the

from the first

I ever opened in the game, and I dropped one single

from 60

helped immensely, I did everything the guy said in the guide.

Okay so I've been farming this off and on for the past year or so. I've solved on average 12 of each common artifact and 3 rares (no staff/mount).
I've opened 12 canopic jars with no recipe.
I'm 75/75 cata alchemy, I have all the mats ready to go.
When I started, I did the suggested method of farming lore rep and only digging in Pandaria. I got so bored of this, I moved on to Kul'Turas/Zandalor area. Sites were too spread out imo.
I then went to Broken Isles. So far this is far superior than the Pandaria method. All digsites will only be in 1 zone because of the way archeology works there. I always start in Dalaran because there is likely a quest there in the archeology shop that will either get you extra boxes or a cool item. When you feel done, use your Dalaran hearthstone and trade in your boxes. Much faster than flying to Bran every time you want to exchange in Pandaria.
I'm not sure if this is actually better. Not sure if you need less artifacts per solve with mantid artifacts. But what I know is going to a place you haven't been means you get more chances for pristine artifacts which gives you an extra 3 boxes.
My suggestion is to move on to a new place when you get tired of the grind. Going to Kul'Tiras means you can max your archeology skill, which technically isn't useful anymore, but cool for completionists like me :) Watching lectures for work and TV shows definitely passes the time much faster.
I also sometimes join queues for BGs or dungeons (during timewalking) or pet battles to break it up a bit since I just get transported to where I was before.
Wish me luck, going to continue farming. 12 jars down, hopefully it will happen soon!

I'm not sure if people are aware of this and i havn't seen any info on it on here so here goes, so iv'e been farming the recipe now for a week or so which is......yea a LOT of hours doing archaeology, and i have discovered that if you fly into the center of the red area and survey most of the time the next point will be almost next to your current survey spot saving LOADS of time. I tested it by starting to survey as soon as i flew into the red area and most of the time it was red or yellow making me fly to the opposite end of the area. So yea not that big of a thing but it's saved me so much time in the long run :)

I have that recipe in 2 different realms. One took like 15 jars, and the other one took 3 jars. In the first one, I didn't have Cataclysm Alchemy on me during first 10~ tries until i read some forum member's comment about how having cataclysm alchemy increases your chances.
So It would be safe to say that you DEFINITELY SHOULD get Cataclysm Alchemy before starting to farm the recipe, talking from my experiences.

Is this possible to be found in the jars from someone who is not an alchemist? If so, what happens to the recipe since it's BOP?

Exalted with the Lorewalkers
From krnpriest
The Method I Used & Some Additional Ideas:
I used the Pandaria farming method by farming Mantid Archaeology dig sites in the Dread Wastes and Townlong Steppes. The method has been described here, but to reiterate, I purchased Mantid Artifact Hunter's Kit from Brann Bronzebeard. This item contains the item that only spawns Mantid dig sites, Mantid Artifact Sonic Locator. If you do not have Mantid dig sites already, go ahead and use Lorewalker's Map. This will cause your current sites to be "randomized" into all Mantid sites. I also searched my AH for cheap Mantid Amber Sliver. These will also help expedite the grinding process.
When you solve any races' artifacts in Pandaria (and WoD), they can be "used" and subsequently turned into Restored Artifact. These are what we use as currency to purchase Crate of Tol'vir Archaeology Fragments also sold by Brann Bronzebeard. Restored Artifacts can also be used as currency with Srikka and Grakis found in Warspear and Stormshield respectively. These two NPCs might seem redundant, but I was able to put them to good use as I will explain a little later. Purchasing Crate of Tol'vir Archaeology Fragments is what we're grinding for, since it contains both Tol'vir Hieroglyphics and Tol'vir Archaeology Fragment that will then get us on the infamous RNG hype train. Tol'vir Hieroglyphics currently sell for just over 1k gold each on my server's AH, and according to the Undermine Journal, the global median currently sits at 700g each as of January 1st, 2016. Needless to say, I did not purchase many hieroglyphics at full asking price.
After doing it, you will get only the Mantid Digsiste, which work as below:
Mantid Archeology:
- 5-9 fragments
- most artifacts are worth 50 fragments
- digsites in Townlong Steppes ( mostly SRA'VESS ) & Dread Wastes
- spawn locations very close to each other ( almost all green )
I completed in total 250 Restored Artifacts. I would go and turn them in after gathering 50.
I Collected the following artefacts:
Rare:
Ring of the Boy Emperor: 1
PEndant of the Scarab Storm: 1
Common:
Tiny Oasis Mosaic: 12
Castle of Sand: 5
Cat Statue with Emerald Eyes: 8
Soapstone Scarab Necklace: 6
Engraved Scimitar Hilt: 10
Canopic Jar: 6
Sketch of a Desert Palace: 11
In total I spent almost 2 days grinding the place, but I got the recipe in my 6th canopic jar!
Then I went straight to Zereth Mortis and helped everyone who needed a ride complete their flying.
All in all, a good weekend.
I will probably never do archeology again, or just take a very long break from it.
Best wishes to all my fellow alchemists trying to get the recipe. IT'S.NOT.WORTH.IT

After getting Zin'rokh i still had 160 restored Artifacts. So i decided to learn cataclysm alchemy and start buying Tol'vir fragments.
First i got the mount and after 3 Jars i got the recipe. All within 25 total tol'vir solves.
What a lucky day :)

This finally dropped for me this morning, first day of 10.0.0, from previously-opened (without looting the organs inside) jars in my bank, so the canopic jar item ID resetting after a major patch is still a thing thankfully!
After 28 crafts of the jar, and then saving up 13 of them (how many I've managed to make since finding out about the ID reset) throughout the entirety of Shadowlands, I honestly thought they'd fixed the patch reset! I have literally opened more than 60 of the damn things before getting the recipe.. on the very last of the 13 no less!
"Relief" doesn't quite cut it...

Currently at 161 Solves / 20 Jars.
No recipe yet.
Exalted with the Lore Walkers, Alchemy level 600, Pandaria Alchemy 75 and yes I do the mantid trick and have Foragers Gloves.
I’ll post again if I ever get the darn thing.

203 solves, 3 jars, 0 recipe. And I thought getting the gold was bad. Spent better part of a day flying around with that lorewalkers thingy. Not looking forward to a repeat...
Edit: 5 solves, 1 jar, 1 recipe!
Now i can have friends ride with me... if i had any. lol!

Because all other replies were really old, here's your friendly reminder that the pandaria farm still works like a charm.
Patch 10.0.5 (Dragonflight) ~
Farming Archaeology in Legion/BfA from 0 to 525, whichever you have flight in, as you don't lure mobs if you're level 45+.
Save ALL your
Restored Artifact
.
Head to Pandaria (must have flight), and farm reputation with the
Lorewalkers
up to Exalted, that with a guide and tomtom takes no more than half an hour to reach.
Buy the
Mantid Artifact Hunter's Kit
from
Brann Bronzebeard
for 2
Restored Artifact
once, open it, and then you have 24h of guaranteed Mantid digsites in Pandaria only.
The reason why you'll farm in Pandaria is because you get an average of 1
Restored Artifact
per digsite, a rate much higher than farming straight away in other exps.
Finally, gather enough
Restored Artifact
and exchange them with Brann for several
Crate of Tol'vir Archaeology Fragments
, solve them and hopefully you'll find enough
Canopic Jar
to drop the recipe.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In my personal experience, it took me 60x
Restored Artifact
, giving me 4x
Canopic Jar,
1x
Sketch of a Desert Palace
, 1x
Cat Statue with Emerald Eyes
, 1x
Soapstone Scarab Necklace
, 1x
Tiny Oasis Mosaic
, 1x
Castle of Sand
and 1x
Engraved Scimitar Hilt
. And then I got the recipe from the first
Canopic Jar
(so very lucky, for once in my life).
