Has a very low chance of dropping the Mature Blue Dragon Sinew

Also drops the recipe for 'Greater Arcane Protection Potion' which might become more popular with the Curator fight in Karazhan, and Tempest Keep: The Eye which is probably going to have arcane fights in it. Careful of the patroling elite dragon.

We are on Curator tonight. So we needed a couple of these, since the Major Arcane Protection Potion mats are crazy. I -although I don't have alchemy- went farming this for my guild and the recipe dropped on the 3rd kill along with the . https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/item=14493

That means I can craft low levels this excellent item. Ahn'Qiraj - EU - Alliance - Karafauxtr (Level 70 warlock)

Also the only mob to drop Schematic: Arcanite Dragonling =O Going to farm for it right now.... hope it's worth it >..<

It seems strange that Blizzard would put a whole whack of rare recipes (tailoring, alchemy and engineering) all on one random mob's loot list.

Not that I'm complaining or anything.

Commento di 113310

i spent a good hour and a half farming the schematic, and still NONE.

i did however receive tailoring pattern x3, alchemy recipe x5, a bunch of random greens, and a Brain Hacker (boe epic 2h axe). Nice, but not what i was looking for :[

what frustrates me even more is their terrible spawn locations and spawn times. after killing all the mageweavers in the cave, the new spawns would be Wymkins instead! wth

only shoots Frostbolt, 191-299frost dmg, 3sec cast)
Mages: use Frost Ward :) you don't even get hit

(nearby Cobalt Broodlings minidragons aswell, only 70ish dmg though)

drops:
Pattern: Robe of the Winter Night dropped after 4 kills
Recipe: Greater Arcane Protection Potion dropped after 5 kills (2nd after about 15)
Schematic: Arcanite Dragonling didn't drop for me

I have 300 alchemy, it could be you get the recipe only when you have alchemy, and you get the schematic only when you have engineering?
also note:
the Pattern is BoP, the Recipe and Schematic are BoE (you can AH them or send them to alts or friends)

(in the middle of the cave you can find Manaclaw, big elite lvl58 dragon, soloable at 70)
(in the back of the cave you can find Scryer, big elite lvl60 dragon, difficult to solo at 70) drops quest things
nothing else of interest there, just stay outside :)

How hard is this guy? Has anyone every tried to kill him? Any special abilities to watch out for?

Commento di Thottbot

Not hard for paladin, having frost resistance aura, and him being a mage. Although that place is full with scalebanes (elite dragonkin warriors) - those are much more of a trouble :) But hey, I'll put my shield + trash blade and try them too :)

Commento di Thottbot

Took them solo easy as a 60 rogue. Keep on top of kick and use evasion if needed. Cake.

Commento di Thottbot

Im a frost mage & I've been farming these for the past few days, looking for the robe pattern drop. I only have t0 equivalent gear so I get a fair few resists, but I can take out all 3 different types of elites, they arent too tough. Although it has to be said that the spawn rate stinks. A ratio of roughly 2 Wyrmkin to 2 Scalebane to 1 Mageweaver is pretty accurate.

& what the hell is with the groups of 3 whelps? 3x lvl55 & I can't kill them all in one go. My best is 2 at a time, but with the frostshocks & mana draining breath I really struggle.

As for Spellmaw ganking every 5 minutes, don't even get me started.. =P

UPDATE: Day 3 - I have now picked up 2x Greater Arcane Protection Potions & 1x Mature Blue Dragon Sinew. At this rate I'll be able to afford Pattern: Robe of the Archmage before I get the robe pattern drop.

Commento di Thottbot

well guys ive been reading these posts thinkin o %^&* this gon suck but when i finaly get there i can 8 shot them. They dont even last 20 seconds. lvl 60 marksman hunter

Commento di Thottbot

My husband and I went farming for this last night expecting the worst. We entered the cave (where there seemed to be a much higher concentration of the mageweavers. We found 2 of the alchemy recipes withing about 5 minutes. We'd killed maybe 10-15 of the Mageweavers when the pattern dropped! I'd say we farmed for less than 30 minutes. :)

Commento di Thottbot

These guys are a piece of cake. I fear kite them 100-0 without taking damage as a 57 warlock. However, if I fear into the little whelps I'm screwed. Those beasts do badass damage and drain my mana so damn fast.

Commento di Thottbot

Hadn't realised the robe pattern drop was bop, got two of them in the past half hour, useless to me. Wanted it for my lock for when it gets to 53, but as usual, I'll just have to pay inflated prices on the AH on my server or try to find someone to make it.

Commento di Thottbot

Good lord, someone please tell me the arcanite dragonling recipe isn't really a 0.4% drop rate item. I did enough farming of enemies in Oshu'gun for that arcane protection potion. Maybe I'll just go on my mage and plow these things 2 shot style for my engie alt.

Commento di Thottbot

I killed 10 and got both the Arcanite Dragon plans and the Robe Pattern. Good thing I'm Tailor/Engineer 8)~

Now for Felcloth

I'm Horde on Twisting Nether, msg Tastybrains if you want these made

Commento di Thottbot

How hard are these to solo as a shadow priest?

I am a tailor and would like to farm for the tailoring pattern so I can have it in my collection. Since it is BoP I cannot easily farm it on my rogue :(

Commento di Allakhazam

1st kill dropped recipe to Greater Arcane Resistant Potion, 3rd kill dropped pattern to Robe of Winternight, which was what I came from. Nice and easy to solo for a fire mage :)

Commento di Allakhazam

I found Arcanite Dragonling 1st kill about 6 more and I got Robe of Winter Night then about 15 more till I found the Arcane Potion. still no sinew :'(

Commento di Allakhazam

I hate u all lucky guys

Commento di Allakhazam

Soloing these dragonkin is not too hard, but they respawn pretty fast. If you can't keep up a steady pace of dispatching them, you could wind up dealing with adds that spawn, especially in the cave.

Commento di Allakhazam

ive been killing them for about 3 days now, and still, no drops, ive gotten around 100 gold from their 18-24 silver droprate, but no schematic, pattern, i did get 40g worth of greens though, so altogether 140g, but im still going, not gonna stop until i get 1-2 schematics.

Commento di Allakhazam

haha found the robe of the winternight pattern in my first kill :D

I paid a lvl 66 warrior to accompany my 51 lock to get the Robe of Winter Night pattern. Watch out for the elite named chimaera and the elite named dragon!

Fourth circuit around the 3rd Mageweaver dropped "Recipe: Greater Arcane Protection Potion". Two more and "Pattern: Robe of Winter Night" was mine!

Took about 55 minutes and 5pg for the mercenary.

Commento di Allakhazam

Got a sinew after ten kills ~ or so :)
Can these drop jeweled necklace of cainwyn as well?

Commento di Allakhazam

I was sitting there waiting for my paladin friend to get there so that we could corpse run through the cave to turn in his Onyxia key quest and one of these wyrmkin casters spawned on top of me and dropped the sinew! woooooot!

Commento di Allakhazam

perhaps only the lucky ones post, but sounds like tall tales to me I personally just walked in the mageweaver said here it is , dropped it at my feet and i left so I WIN

Commento di Allakhazam

Went there to get grind them...

Second dropped...

OMG

Commento di Allakhazam

Elite Dragonkin types. Love to cast frostbolt and other icy spels on you )

Commento di Allakhazam

Went there last night to try and get the Enchanter and Engineering plans with a 58 Hunter friend (I am 60 Warrior). We generally didn't have problems fighting the elites in the area but once you get in the cave the respawns are fast and there were patrols that caused problems.

Killed a few of them with no noteable drops. It was fun though and we will head back with another to hopefully make a better run of the area.

Commento di Allakhazam

I got Arcane protection potion on my first kill, but I still havent found any rugged leather...

Commento di Allakhazam

For a frost mage, what level should you be to solo these guys without too much trouble?

Commento di Allakhazam

If you're searching for the pattern drop, a bit of research pointed me toward the Cobalt Mageweavers (as opposed to the other Cobalt dragonkin types that spawn in the same area), and suggest that the drop rate is actually pretty decent when only the Mageweavers are taken into account. I got mine, for example, after the second kill.

As far as the Mageweavers themselves go, they are easily soloable by a level 55+ caster with decent gear (based on a lv55 shadow priest's experience in these highly unskilled hands). Their offensive aresenal consists primarily of frost spells, and as 'caster-type' elites have a lot fewer HP than the average elite at their level.

The most difficult part for me was finding these buggers. There is apparently some evidence that they share a spawn with the other, tougher, elite Cobalt dragonkin, and I did not spot a single mageweaver on my first dash through the area. There area also swarms of flying wyrmling non-elites that can cause a huge headache, especially for clothie types with low HP.

Commento di Allakhazam

while farming for the pattern, the sinew dropped on me off about the 40th mob :O

Commento di VzDub

I farmed this for an hour yesterday, and 2 minutes today. In 19 kills they dropped nothing but silver. I was like, meh I'll do one hour a day.

Robe of the Winter pattern dropped on my first kill today (20th total).

I'm not upset.

Commento di roodee

been farming this sparingly for a week. I've got 6+ of the alchemy recipe and probably 10+ of the robe pattern. no schematic. there's also no schematic on the AH. this drop rate must be really bad.

i dont just kill the mageweavers either. I kill everything in the area. was thinking the mageweavers might share a spawn with the wyrmkin but unsure. also... the respawn rate is too low. this is a brutal drop.
