Definitely not that way to go for volatile waters. I just killed about 20 and got my first volatile. Guess it's time to level fishing :(

These guy can be frustrating if your a pet class. They will water bolt random targets forcing you to eat after a while.

As a hunter, snake trap did a lot of the work eating up the random water bolts, but I still had problems with 3 and 4 pulls.

I cleared the whole river from top to bottom of these and only got 5 volatile water

20 minutes of farming yielded 8 Volatile Water, 1 Green drop and about 22gold in trash. I didn't get a single Water in the first 40 kills and was getting rather discouraged. Killed a few more and 2 dropped from one mob. So only thing I can say is RNG can really be a pain when farming. Not easy to pull more than 2 mobs at a time as a Frost DK. Couldn't interrupt all the water spouts / bolts. Pulling them solo was super easy though.

I did a little test today. As a ilvl 335 Elemental Shaman it took me about 30 minutes to get 100 of those killed. I was alone and covered the whole delta a few times. I managed to get 23 volatiles in that time.
My goal was to reach 30 Volatiles, did that in about 45 minutes with 143 kills. At the end 2 more players showed up, but the respawns were fast so no down time.
Interrupt the water bolts whenever you can and avoid the spouts, they hit for a few k dmg and you get fall dmg as well.

Commento di Senhull

135 kills for 31 Volatile Air.
Was I unlucky?

My strategy? Catch up with friends and relatives...these guys are so easy just make some of those long phone calls you've been meaning to get to. The Volatiles start to pile up along with your good friend karma.

Dont look very muddy.

So I just wanted to put my 2 cents in and see if my crazy theory is true. I noticed when I was farming these guys for volatile waters I would take them on solo and go threw 20 to 30 of them with no drops. Then when I started taking them in groups of 3-4 I would get a drop guaranteed every time between 1-4 volatiles. Was just wondering if someone else was willing to try this and see if it did make a difference or if it was just one of those flukes.

Actually the chance on drop is even a little bit higher than 13%. In my experience it was 17%. I've farmed these elementals for about 1 hour. After kill ~250 of them I had 42 Volatiles Water, plus 5 green items.

So this place is good to farming Volatiles Water. A lot of mobs, without wait to respawn.

I think they dont cast Water sprout now. I pulled 4 of them and i just stood in place and healed myself, and not a single one casted it. They only have water bolt now

After farming for 1 hour with a potion of treasure finding this is what i looted from farming Muddied Water Elementals from the bottom to top of the stream:

92g in vendor trash
4 greens
1 blue
1 ele lockbox
62 volatile water

22 tiny treasure chests (contents hyphonated)
- 3 volatile earth
- 2 volatile fire
- 11 volatile life
- 9 volatile air
- 21 pyrite ore
- 5 elementium ore
- 86 embersilk cloth
- 75g loot

I was farming on an affliction warlock with felhunter pet, fel armor ilvl 354 full pve, a key trinket i used was Sorrowsong (it gives you an average of 855 sp when farming, making it better than firelands hc trinkets, only in this scenario!).

My tactic was just put Corruption, Unstable Affliction and Bane of Agony on every target and use Haunt whenever the CD allowed, aswell as instant shadow bolts. Also when i had 3 or more elementals on me i'd use shadowflame. I had to use Soul Harvest after clearing from the bottom to the top of the stream each time usually.

I had just done 1 hr farming Volatile Water. I had used a 0/32/9 Feral tank talent spec with a 330.4375 ilevel gear set for tanking. I was bear and no Mark of the Wild was used, but I did use potion of treasure finding. Level 85 Druid on Eldre'Thalas. I had used FarmIt addon to track what I had looted from these guys. I started with 1 Volatile Water in my inventory.

I had killed 129 Elementals over the course of 1 hr. I had taken 578.7k (54.9%) Water Bolts of damage, followed by 319.6k (30.3%) Basic Attacks. I also received 150k (14.2%) in damage from water spouts, no falling damaged was received. I did not stop to heal as Leader of the Pack did that for me, but I had to used 2-3 minutes of travel time to get to the next one. The water spouts are avoidable, but you have to be quick to notice it and you have to go about 5-10 yards to avoid it.

I have done 9.67m damage for an average dps of 3675. My main attacks were Mangle(Bear), Basic Attack, Lacerate. I pulled with Faerie Fire(Feral) and then Mangle, Maul and then Laceratex3. Hitting every skull bash I can and hitting every berserk proc I can. I was avoided roughly 9% of the time.

Loot:
33 Volatile Water (25.5% drop rate)
108 Crackling Crystals (79% drop rate)
21 Shimmering Shards (16% drop rate)
5 Mini Treasure Chests (3.8% drop rate)
-2 Green
-13g 50s, 19c
-5 Volatile Fire
-24 Embersilk Cloth
-2 Volatile Earth

After Selling the greys, I will get another 30g, 67s, 83c

92 gold worth of grey -mostly shards-

Chest Loot
About 50 gold
3 stacks of Emberweave
7 Pyrite
Volatiles

All in all very good run!

I know some people have already put their experiences here, but I'll contribute as well.

Spent 2 hours farming Volatile Water while using Potion of Treasure Finding. I was using my moonkin offspec, ilevel 389 geared with mediocre LFR/HoT heroic gear.

658 Elementals killed
- 125 Volatile Water (18.99%)
- 23 Tiny Treasure Chest (3.49%)
- 16 Green items for Disenchant (2.43%)

Loot from Tiny Treasure Chest
- 5 additional Volatile Water
- 225 Embersilk Cloth
- 19 Volatile Life
- 9 Volatile Fire
- 7 Volatile Earth
- 4 Volatile Air
- 4 Pyrite Ore
- 2 Green items for Disenchant
- 104 gold

If you keep a good pace, you can average about 60 volatiles per hour. Make sure to always use a Potion of Treasure Finding as well, for the additional loot, the potion really does pay for itself if you farm for an hour straight.
