These are a pain to farm because they're mixed in with a lot of Bash'ir ethereals. The drop rate is decent though, it could be worth it if you like being alone.

It's actually not that bad of farming if you just kill your way around. All the mobs drop 10+s and netherweave. Just make sure to keep moving. Even better if you are UD for cannibalize :P

Does anyone know if you need a flying mount to get here or if there's a hidden path to get to it?

I'd consider myself a heavy farmer. I was here for 2 hours, and gathered 5 motes. Died around 3-4 times. Farming with my rogue, these mobs are immune to poisons as well. The mobs here are pretty close quarters. Unless you're really hard up for mana motes, I'd stray from this "decent drop rate" area. They seem to have a pretty high resilience, too. My crits weren't going off much here.

The unbound ethereals have one of the highest drop rates for motes of mana, but an hour or two here and you'll realize why people still farm lower drop rate monsters.

Was here for about an hour and got about 3 motes because the mobs here take a bit of elbow grease to kill and there are a lot of them. It's hard to find an unbound one by its lonesome-- usually it's accompanied by an arcanist or a spell thief. The unbound ethereals themselves hit for ~280-350 arcane damage and have a decent amount of defense.

The area is very densely packed with patrols all around, and the mobs are all 70+, meaning it's very likely that you'll pull more things than you intend.

Man... I thought this would be a good place to get netherweave cloth and motes of mana, and although as a full shadow spec priest this guys are easy enough to solo pull and drop, and their spawn rate is very high as well, its easier to just stay in netherstorm even if you have 2 or 3 competitors farming there as well.

I don't know... I may be flying back to farm manaslayers, etc if the drop rate doesn't improve. Wish these guys gave consortium rep or something in addition to their sparse mote and cloth drops.

You can get in without a flyine mount.
If you go to cord 72.18 and runn inn to the wall (wall with the spikes) and try to Explore "The Crystalspine". When you have done that, go to "Gruul's Lair" and die as close to "The Crystalspine" as you can. If this works you will end up at a "Spirit Healer" in "The Crystalspine" and you ress there. Wait 15 min and happy farming :)

<<Good luck>>

After spending only 5 minutes here, I came to learn that this place isn't as bad as some say. If you have a flying mount and are a ranged class, you can avoid a large number of non Unbound Ethereal mobs. Hunters and mages specced for their max range will have it easiest, of course, but any class capable of 36 yards can take advantage of the terrain and get most, if not all, of the Unbound Ethereals from safe spots.

Edit: After going through every single mob spawn, there were only three times I had to fight another mob before or at the same time as an Unbound Ethereal. One case was just to be safe, one was unavoidable, and one was bad timing on my part.

If you are ranged, just use your flying mount and land on the small hills, nuking the mob down, then mount up again and fly to the next "safe" spot. Spent about 25-30 minutes as a shadow priest here for three primals, not that bad imo.

I've found myself a new farming spot

Can you get there on foot or do you need a flying mount?

Commento di 99494

You can reach there without a flying mount if you are a mage, there is a section on the northeast corner of the fire pit area that if you stand from a spike you can slow fall to the ledge to the back area, i was farming and killing stuff there when i was 68-69

This place was a breeze for me, a level 70 affliction warlock. I'm accualy looking for 3 things, depleted crystals, mana motes, and cloth, and thisplace is the best place to find it.

Commento di Thottbot

surprised theres no comments here. providing these guys aren't rare then i would expect these to be the best mote of mana farming

Commento di Thottbot

These guys are not practical to farm motes of mana from, they are in the middle of bash'ir landing. To kill one, you probably need to kill 3-4 other mobs first.

Commento di Thottbot

much better drop rate than the rays, only for alliance tho, horde don't bother...
you can fly around to get to other unreals, might have to kill a few others, but between the cloth, 25s, and greens... sooo inconvenient

Commento di Thottbot

Any1 know the respawn time on these?

Commento di Thottbot

The drop rate for mote of mana is absolutely bull. You are way better off farming Phase Hunters in Netherstorm. They drop two of them almost every kill.

Commento di Thottbot

Drop rate is way off as listed

Reason: nobody farms these - way too inconvenient. Therefore the results are based on a data pool much smaller than that of, say, phase hunters in netherstorm (which I still recommend as the best mobs to farm mana from).

Bottom line - don't farm these.

Commento di Thottbot

5 Kills NO DROPS - don't bother
Easy enough for a Balance druid - root and wrath - but why - no more of mana drops.....

Commento di Allakhazam

Thought I'd try my luck with my rogue, but it's really not worth it. You have to clear 3 or 4 humanoids before you can get to an unbound one, so the drop-rate per kill is bad...

Commento di Allakhazam

I took my warlock to these guys to farm mana motes, and I discovered that they're scattered amongst a bunch of humanoid ethereals who take half magical damage.

I have to agree that it is probably not worth it to go after this mob for motes of mana. I don't go in expecting to get the exact same drop rate that I see alla posting, but after killing 15 or so of this mob, I did expect to get some. I got a big fat zip. Nada.

(However as a rogue with only 2 points on Master of Deception, I did not have to kill all the humanoids. I don't think I killed more than one extra humanoid per unbound ethereal. And there was one ethereal that kept spawning in a spot by itself.)
