Dropped after 125 kills.

Commento di 20187

Got it after an 20 minutes of farming.

Commento di 20504

I can make it, Shariq @ The Maelstrom EU (Alliance)

Commento di 3217

I spent 4 hours farming this and I got it after around ~150 kills, flying mount really help to dodge the NPCs and beasts patroling in the area.

Commento di 18754

Dropped after 7th kill (straight after unscheduled server restart).

Commento di 10954

I farmed a total of 131 level 68 and 147 level 69 archmages over 2 days (maybe 6 hours or so total). Looks like some people are just born lucky. Me? I earn my crust.

Commento di 6780

Expect to be here a while. I got lucky and got mine relatively fast. However the drop rate on the scryer faction stuff makes a long camp still be profitable. You may also consider bringing an alchemy friend with you since the mobs also drop the rare Fel Mana Potion recipie.

Commento di Egitor

Prepared to farm for an hour or so for the pattern - got it after 6 kills. Also got an Arcane Tome... Had my good luck charm with me :)

Commento di 25831

91 kills till this dropped. I think it took me about an hour and a half to kill that many. I'm a healing priest so this was just as annoying as farming.. well just about anything else. WTB shadow spec

Avoid the centurions, they are a pain in the bum. At around 10-12%, if you don't kill them fast enough, they will heal themselves to full health.

However I managed to get 50 sunfury signets and 2 arcane tomes, which I guess sort of made up for it. So this works really well if you need scryers rep, two birds with one stone.

Commento di aiacos

Dropped for me from Archmage while i was doing "the shadowmoon shuffle" quest...i think i was very lucky!
Coords: around 47.66

Commento di Slit

Easy to get, you just have to be patient. I downed 121 Archmages, but if you get the area for yourself (as I did) respawns are fast.

Archmages are easy, centurions too....those riders are annoying...as a combat rogue, I found this one fairly easy.

Got 76 Sunfury Signets and 4 arcance tomes during the farming.

Commento di 554

I usually have to grind for a while to get something to drop but this one I got from my 20th kill...also from an even numbered mob...It goes w/ my theory of even numbered adds.

Commento di 12521

Dropped on my 3rd kill, lol. All in all not too bad of a farm ... just be careful where you fight since mobs are generally pretty close together.

Commento di 16806

Just farmed for about 15 minutes, got it on about kill number 25. Lots of archmages right in the camp so youll never be looking for them.

Commento di 31330

Took me 37 Archmages to get it, 17 lvl 69, 20 lvl 68.

Commento di 38617

Drops from the Archmages... Got mine after about 150 kills.

Commento di 39669

Yep got mine from an Archmage - i team'd with a 70 hunter after 3 hours of no luck then about 30 mins later i got it, thank god, now for the shadow one ><

Commento di Flick

30-40 kills to get mine.

Don't be discouraged by the blue-quality label on the enchant: judging by anecdotal evidence it's not any lower droprate than the other various BoP enchant patterns out in the world. The resulting enchant, however, is worthy of blue-quality (though there really isn't any such thing with enchants).

The archmages are static and don't share spawnpoints with the nearby Centurions, so feel free to pick them off without worrying about trash saturation (a la Bloodmaul Geomancers).

Commento di zaber

371 Sunfury Signets
56 Arcane Tomes
0 Formula: Enchant Cloak - Greater Arcane Resistance

grrrr....

Commento di 11333

Worth mentioning that you need to be a chanter to see this drop.

Commento di 48854

Dropped on exactly my 200th kill. I spread farming across 3 days.

Commento di 54322

Just dropped for me on the 5th or 6th kill after about 20 mins. Wondering if the drop rate was increased with the 2.1.0 patch or I was just really lucky.

Commento di 57978

7th archmage gave it. must be my lucky day

Commento di 73838

So lucky.. got mine after 10 kills. Yay!!

Commento di 37714

I've killed probably 300 of these so far, no enchant.

When I was after fel mana recipe, it took me 10 kills.

Any idea if there's a bug when you have one of them already?

Commento di berbel

Around 80 kills or so. But so worth it

Commento di 35339

was helping a friend do a quest, droped off the 5th mob, didn't even know about the enchat

FOR THE HORDE!

Commento di Bozlee

Here's the obligitory "got it first drop" post. I would assume that it has a droprate similar to the shadow resist cloak enchant.

Commento di 109996

Took exactly 35 Eclipsion Archmage kills and 40 min. My strat was to just pick out the mages, kite them to where you wont aggro more, then destroy them :P.

Commento di Dale

Just dropped for me, just lucky, was doing some random quest there and poff it droped :) does anyone kno if arcane resisatnce even is needed?

Commento di Ladno

I got this drop while doing the Rod of Lianthe quest there.
Just lucky, I guess.

Commento di 128008

I got my drop while doing another quest, gathering armor parts.
Required enchanting lvl is 350, and it drops even if you are not high enough skill to learn it yet.

Commento di 149067

Must've killed around 200 and spent at least 5 hours and not one drop =.=

Commento di 151345

1 hour, 58 kills. Not bad :D

Also killed everything else that got in my way, and made off with ten greens and a blue, about 50 Sunfury Signets, three Arcane Tomes, and more shadoweave cloth than I could carry. Definitely worth the grind.

Commento di 152205

got mine after 19 kills

Commento di 172636

Hello this scroll i start think do not exist more then 450 kills of those mages and not yet dropped .

Seems it is abit diffrence fore all of us got it after 475 mages this is a strange drop rate on indeed

Commento di cptgrr

I got mine after about 20 kills. Good luck with yours.

Commento di 227192

Took me about an hour all up 98kills later 3 Greens 1 Black Lotus 20 Sunfury Signet it finally dropped.

Posted a screenshot of the path i used to kill and I was a rogue. so stealth helped.

Commento di 235468

I'm guessing the reason to drop rate per kill is so low is cause non-enchanters grind these guys for Scryer's rep items. Since you have to be an enchanter to see this, Wowhead will only count those that are seen as opposed to those could actually be dropped if this wasn't an enchanter exclusive drop.

Judging on how many kills it takes before people are seeing this, would 2%-4% be a good estimate for the actual rate?

Commento di Hezkezl

I got this in 3 kills today off of the Archmage guy. I made it a point to go around and get all of the BC recipes, since I've been bored.

This, Enchant Weapon - Major Spellpower, Enchant Bracer - Major Defense, Enchant Weapon - Major Intellect, I got all in under 10 minutes. Hooray for increased droprates or insane luck?

Commento di 391828

Got mine on the first kill... What luck!

Commento di 236530

Just wanted it for my collection, an hour and a half later and got it....

Commento di lolitu94

2nd kill! :)))

Commento di Allakhazam

Droped from Eclipsion Archmage after some hours of farming. Only Enchanters will see the drop. And ofc I can make this on Draksorrow(Horde Side) - Zendoran(Warlock)

Commento di Allakhazam

Lucky drop after 17 kills, kinda nice after the 213 geomancers and 480 skirmishers I had to kill for Enchant Bracer - Spellpower

Commento di Allakhazam

Grabbed the quests for the key/staff and signets, headed on over 5 kills in this lovely formula dropped just for me. Great enchant to have.

Commento di Allakhazam

This finally dropped for me after god-knows-how-many kills, not long after the spellsurge on melee weapon formula dropped, and right before a massive lag spike that killed me and caused a server shutdown minutes later.

Still I got a load of cash, a ton of cloth, a bunch of sunfury rings, a few arcane tomes (all of which I needed to farm anyway), plenty of greens and a blue staff that sold for 130g. So not bad really.

Commento di Allakhazam

Anyone know the mats to this enchant?

Commento di Allakhazam

Took me about 50 kills, first kill on my second farming session. :)

Commento di Allakhazam

dropped for me of a Eclipsion Archmage killed about 30 of those, wasent even farming for the formula, just got borded and killed some :D

I can do this one Turalyon EU english server > Horde > Zangor

Commento di Allakhazam

Mystikal on Maelstrom alliance can do this

Commento di Allakhazam

Took me roughly 100 kills till I finally got it. If you need it on Illidan contact Edgerin (horde)

Commento di Allakhazam

Wow. So I got this due to dumb luck. I was doing the Cipher of Damnation series and had my blood elf disguise, when I decided to mount up and fly off. Well, apparently the disguise wears off if you try and mount, so I was immediately attacked by a nearby Archmage. I easily beat him down and this dropped.

Point of the story is:
If you need this enchant; Sharla, Alliance side, on Whisperwind can do it.

Commento di Allakhazam

Dropped while questing.

Cardoc @ Darksorrow/Horde

Commento di Allakhazam

Confrimed. It drops from Eclipsion Archmage after 348 kills. If you want it I can make it also on Darksorrow (Horde) - Crazypriest.

Commento di Allakhazam

Was doing the Cipher quest line , didn't know that this dropped there. I got it on my 3rd kill of the archmages there. Doable by Rebelroze (horde) Zul'Jin server

Commento di Allakhazam

i was lucky enough to get this in about 2 hours of grinding.
if any1 needs it on Doomhammer (alliance) server please contact me in-game (Spades)

Commento di Allakhazam

Droped during questing in the area... 5th, maybe 10th kill and I got it. I didn't even knew that it can drop there (lol).
Unfortunately I didn't have so much luck with +30int or +40sdmg enchants :(

Commento di Allakhazam

I spent a while farming this and it finally dropped off the Eclipsion Archmage after about 6 dozen kills, definatly easier than some other patterns. So i'm doing this enchant on Malfurion (Horde) just pst Duumma

Commento di Allakhazam

Woot! This dropped on the first archmage while doing the quest The Rod of Lianthe.

Commento di Allakhazam

This dropped for Dcybele on Scryers 4/1/2007 (no, not a joke).

Commento di Thottbot

bop, got it while farming blood elfs at eclipse point

Commento di Thottbot

I got mine doing the quest at that same location, Archmage dropped it iirc. BoP recipe.

Commento di Thottbot

Took about an hour of farming, maybe 50-60 kills (had to wait for respawns) before an archmage dropped it.

Commento di Thottbot

I'm posting this in the hopes that complaining will make my luck turn around. It always seems to work that way.

Been at it 8 hours. About 500 kills ... 9 arcane tomes, 127 sunfury signets, a handful of greens, a blue, a ton of grays, ... but no enchant.

Update: Got it! Finally! About 10-11 hours. Final count 16 arcane tomes, 194 sunfury signets, about 15 greens, 2 blues, and lots of grays.

I found a really great place to farm them is up top by the three demons. There's at least six archmages on the plateu, and you can run down the stairs and find another six. By the time you've killed all twelve and a few guys around them, they will start respawning.

Commento di Thottbot

Found this while farming Sunfury Signets for Rep.

From what I understand certain formulas like this *ONLY* drop if you do that profession.

(Please correct me if I am wrong about that).

If this is the case though, I welcome it. It makes it feel like an accomplishment earning something that you can do solo, without having to outroll your raid for, and to not just be the one who buys gold and has every BoE in the game.

If you are on Llane Alliance, look up Josileen for the chant (and many others).

Commento di Thottbot

right, i even forgot count of how much i killed. things i got while farming it:

2 epics
4 blues
tons of greens.

all i can say:

DROP IT YE NABS!

Commento di Thottbot

Avg. number to kill for the Enchant is 362.3
Nobody should care that you got it after two or that you've been farming it for weeks with no drop.
People who report aren't the average people.. get it from 200-500 kills.
Kill 200.. chance to drop ~ 50% chance .. no drop.... the next two hundred you kill ~ 50% drop chance..not 100%

Good Hunting..
Nice with Signets, Tomes, and Netherweave Dropping besides.

Peace

Commento di Thottbot

Do you have to have the enchanting level to use this in order for it to drop? That is to say, if the recepie requires 350 enchant to use, then you will not be able to get it if you are bellow that? just wondering .

Commento di Thottbot

Just having the enchant skill is enough at this point. It was not so in previous patches. You can now pick them up as long as you have the prof, and bank it until you can learn it.

Commento di Thottbot

I've farmed nearly all the soloable BOE enchanting drops (with Logros). My best advice - don't do this until you're done with the solo quests in the Outlands. At that point, you'll really be looking for something to do, and this is a great way to pass the time.

And by /that/ point, your gear should be halfway decent, and grinding goes much, much faster. As a well-geared enhance shaman, I can kill very, very quickly with little downtime, so grinding isn't nearly the chore for me as it would have been when I was barely 70.

Commento di Thottbot

Finally-
4 Hrs
80 Signets
6 Arcane tomes
6 stacks of netherweave
7 greens later

it dropped
I'd recommend esp pulling out the flying mount on this one, you can figure the best places to land to pick the archmages off so you don't have to bother with getting mobbed and/or killed by the other stuff

good luck!

Commento di Thottbot

Dropped at Eclipse Point in Shadowmoon Valley. Only had to grind about an hour.

Commento di Thottbot

141 Archmage kills for me

I did it double boxing a shadow priest and holy paladin. Group loot worked out ok. The corpse went to the priest but the paladin was the enchanter and it showed for him and didnt for the priest. I was a little concerned when going into the grind but it worked out ok.

Great drops, turned about 400g from the grind in about 4-5 hours.

Talidus

Commento di Thottbot

Dropped for me after about 150 kills. Didn't take too long as I was the only person there. It is not bad gold and rep (for Scryers at least) and I would definitely recommend taking a friend or two along since adds can pile up quickly if you aren't careful.

Commento di Thottbot

took me bout 2 hours of farming thewse guys, not too hard really, drop down on FM, kill all mages in range, mount up, fly to next spot, repeat.

Commento di Thottbot

GOT IT TODAY! lol also got the bop alch fel mana potion today. Lmfao

Commento di Thottbot

I grinding about 300 of these.

In the town at Eclipse point there is a terrace which has 5 and below down the steps are 6 more.

Commento di Thottbot

If you're a caster (which I think the majority of enchanters are), it may seem like a natural course of action to try and pick out the archmages and avoid the centurions cause of their spellbreak.

In the end though, it's easiest and probably most efficient to just clear everything as you see it. You're going to get obnoxious adds no matter what, and it's a lot easier to deal with centurions when they start at ~30 yards than it is when they run right up to you while you're fighting something else. Nothing except the elites orcs and the infrequent patrolling bloodwarders are more than trifling to kill if you don't get swarmed, so just mow them all down.

Some people will be really lucky and get this on their second kill. But for most, we're going to be here for a few hours. And it's a lot easier to just kill everything indiscriminately than it is to try and surgically pick at the archmages.

Commento di Thottbot

Killed about 20 mobs and luckily enough it dropped got 2 arcane tombs and 10 sunfury signets

unlucky for the people that spent ages farming it =) i was lucky

happy hunting

Commento di Thottbot

started farming it last nite to add to my collection of enchants. i ran the circle at EP and theres give or take 10 archmages around that circle. i farmed for about an hour or so and went to bed didnt expect to get it. then this morning decided it was time to try again, ran the circle once and there was a troll shammy (get this he actualy was helping!) but he was also killing the mages so i said id run one more time and be done with it. i killed a mage, and before i could loot i got attacked by a birdrider, and a dragonhawk. needless to say i died. i ran back to my corpse and looted the mage body and boom, there it was. anyone farming for thsi, got to the ruins at EP (west of wildhammer..i think?) and jsut run the circle and kill everything u see, u get a ton of netherweave, signets, and arcane tombs, how ever i only got 1 green and a lockbox in the 2 days i farmed. but youll get it at soem point. hope this helps

Commento di Thottbot

lol just went to farm for some scryer rep and what do you know a +15 arcane resistance recipe... :) probably killed 30 guys or less

Commento di Thottbot

4hrs and 403 kills and still going. This drop rate is just bad. Did get a consolation prize thought. On 194 kill I got this. Beggers can't be chooser's but it still isn't what i was trying to get from the work.

Commento di Thottbot

It hates me. back to grindin and nothin. I swear it is hiding it from me on purpose.

Commento di Lomkail

about 600 kills in. It is save to say that it is not available in Phase 1. Also don't know of anyone who has it.

Commento di sseeaann

Dropped in less than two hours of farming Eclipsion Archmages, don't have the kill count but I believe it's in the range of ~100. Also got loads of Sunfury Signets, multiple stacks of Netherweave Cloth, some Arcane Tomes, so the grind is not too bad.

Commento di TooFad3d

Can confirm, after 5 hours of farming, this item DOES drop in Phase 1 TBCC.

Commento di goadiroth

I was one of the very few lucky ones, and got the enchant on my first kill :D
