Very inconvenient for warlocks that this recipie drops so infrequently, as these robes are needed for a warlock quest chain that ends with a nice robe that will last for a few levels. https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/quest=1796

It is beyond annoying to get this recipie to drop. Your best bet is to go to the tower of Althaxx in Darkshore, and kill the high lvl enchanters there. The enchanters in Duskwood pop too infrequently, and with too many other NPCs around them.

Farmed the recipe from the Voidcallers in the tower of Althaxx in Darkshore, took about 55 kills. So not impossible to get, just time consuming and a long run if your horde.

Tried farming this pattern for my upcoming Warlock.

After spending a couple hours at the farms in Duskwood, went back the following day and logged in two high level two toons, one in the Tower and one at the farms.

I found that clearing Yorgen's Farmstead then riding to Addle's Stead and riding back after clearing that area, I could log in at the Tower to a fresh spawn. After clearing the Tower, log back into Duskwood and Yorgens Farmstead would have respawned. Rinse and repeat.

After doing this, the pattern eventually dropped after approx 2 hours at Addle's Stead in Duskwood

Good luck and happy hunting!

Wasn't that bad actually. I took my main there, took about 6 mobs for it to drop for me. Woot =D

I got it from the second Dark Strand Voidcaller kill as a 58 rogue at the Tower of Althalaxx.

Commento di 39207

I GOT WITH THE FIRST KILL!!!!!

In my opinion the drop rate must have been extremely increased since 2.1

I've farmed both places. Once to help a horde friend. And today (02Jul07) to help an Alliance friend.

The first time I went to Duskwood with my horde friend. We spent about 2+ hours there. I finally asked my horde friend where the other place was, and we went to Darkshore. Within 20 minutes we had the pattern drop.

Today, having learned from my past experience, I took my Alliance friend straight to Darkshore. We farmed for 37 minutes (I am lvl 48 he is lvl 42).

Now, I don't know why this happened. But we went in the tower, killed the roaming one: she dropped the pattern. We killed the one by the chair on the same ground level: she dropped ANOTHER pattern.

Thats two patterns in 37 minutes. Darkshore is your best bet for farming this. I understand that horde isn't really welcomed in Darkshore. But believe me. It is worth the trouble to swim the sea or hug the mountains to get to the tower.

Alliance hardly ever goes to the tower!

Got two, just now! Tried farming at Tower of Althalaxx for a couple of hours. No go. So I logged out and switched to one of my lowbies. Was about to sleep but thought, "What the heck - just one more try." Now I got two, in succession! And first run to boot. hahaha Hmm..maybe I'll try for a third. One for my tailor, one for my faction AH and one for Booty Bay. lol

To all the others: Good luck! ^_^

i've been farming these as a lvl 66 shaman for over two hours, in the Tower of Althalaxx... i can kill them in one hit, sometimes two, so it's real fast... still no drop. i'll update whenever i finally do get it... hopefully soon!

***so i logged off and checked mail and things with my other toons, logged back in a couple times to clear the tower... and about the third time i logged back in, it finally dropped off a lvl 29 voidcaller!!! i couldn't be happier!! if you need it on Agamaggan talk to "Ostentatious"

Commento di 66720

The pattern dropped for me within 30 minutes. Dropped in Duskwood. Farmed it for a friend.

Commento di cogar

Much faster then I anticipated. Only took about 30 min of farming in Duskwood, Actually dropped from the 15th or 16th enchanter.

Commento di 54902

just one kill and got it from a defias enchanter, lucky me

Commento di 78487

ive tried looking for this for 2 days and nothing, i already tried both places and i spent 4 hours each day looking for it, still nothing......its frustrating

Commento di 33173

Just got the drop from a Voidcaller in the Tower of Althalaxx. Think I cleared it about 5 or 6 times on my 59 orc hunter twink. After each clear, logged into an alt and quested, and every time I took the alt back to town to turn in quests or empty inventory, would log into the hunter and clear the tower again.

Commento di druhim

As usual some of you don't seem to get how probability works so you assume just because it dropped for you quickly at one location that it means there's a higher drop rate for those mobs. Look at the numbers, they're almost identical. So really the consideration regarding where to farm the pattern should be based on which location is easiest for you to get to, whether it's already camped by someone else, and whether you can readily kill the mobs in question. If the voidcallers are proving tricky, just go to duskwood. You might get lucky and have them drop quickly, you might have to kill thousands of VCs or DEs to get the pattern. That's the nature of probability for you.

Commento di 66244

dropped second mob, the robe sells for around 10g on ah. if it doesn't sell at first keep putting it up. everyone and their sister has a warlock alt and there is a buyer ever few days on a well populated server

I killed 3 Defias Enchanters at Yorgen Farmstead in Duskwood and got it easily. Farming the pattern from the black widows on the eastern side took much longer.

Commento di ophir

I have farmed this for two warlock characters, one Alliance and one Horde. I've always had good luck getting it from the Defias Enchanters, whereas I have spent hours farming the mobs in Darkshore without luck. There are only about three enchanters in the whole zone, but the respawn is fairly fast and you can kill other Defias for cloth while you wait. Also, the Enchanters are a lower level mob than the warlocks you have to kill in Darkshore.

For Horde, the Enchanters are closer to get to as well.

Commento di 103115

I farmed it at Addle's Stead. It only took me about 25 minutes. Maybe I was lucky or they adjusted the drop rate during a patch. It wasn't too bad, the enchanters spawn relatively quick.

Commento di circatm2001

so I killed about 4 or 5 of the defias enchanters in duskwood alternating between the yorgen and addle's farmsteads and it dropped gl to anyone else trying to farm this, I was about to give up and just buy on AH when it dropped lol

Farmed in Duskwood just running between Yorgen Farmstead and Addle's Stead killing enchanters. It took a few hours but paid off. If you need the robes and play horde on Lightning's Blade, pst me: Shadowmort.

Commento di Mudling

I just hit the Tower of Althalaxx in Darkshore and this pattern dropped within a few minutes, sweet! :D

Commento di 117994

I first went to look for this pattern in Duskwood, I had two 70's and a fellow 32 along as escorts to help blow threw the mobs.
We bounced back and forth between the two farming locations, and after about 2hrs nothing, we finally had to leave when three Alliance 70's rolled in and camped us.

So the next night I decided to solo my way up to Darkshore, im not sure if my way is the fastest / safest but I decided to go out to Zoram Stand and head north along the coast. Im a lvl 32 Warlock so the one nice thing is the "Unending Breath" spell. I was able to swim along the coast and avoid any Mobs or other enemy players that might have been there.

After about 15min I made it to the tower where the Darkstrand Voidcallers are located and I began the task of killing them. Now the level varies from 28-31 on them so I had to be careful not to draw in to many at a time which is not easy with the tight area of the tower. I died about 4 times while killing the Callers, but after about 1 1/2hrs the pattern dropped.

I suggest going to Darkshore while trying to find this drop, its in Alliance territory but its a low level area for them, and in the 2hrs I spent in the area I only saw one enemy player who was a lvl 19 druid, other than that nothing but NPC's. Either wait till youre a 33+ to do this farm easier alone, or take an equal level friend along for the task.

Good luck and happy farming.

Commento di 103703

Well as I'm a warlock I needed it also and i didn't want to buy so i went tower of Althaxx in Darkshore. I did kill Dark Strand Voidcaller around 40 min. Then I had to do some other stuff so i logged off. When i did log on i killed 2 of them and did get the pattern. So under 1 hour. I suppose i was lucky. If u enter in the last floor be careful to not to pull too many mobs on U.

I was lvl 35.

Sorry about my english its not so good.

Commento di 121289

I made an account, just to comment that I've been farming this for roughly 5 hours =(

I'm hoping it'll drop soon, seeing as how these mobs are worth no experience to me.

Commento di 121830

theres no fregin way this things worth 65g -_-' everyone tells me its only like 3g and this dam thing got my hopes up for that robe of insight

Commento di 127200

It took me about 5-6 clearings of the tower in Darkshore for this pattern to drop. While farming for it, I also got the Hands of Darkness pattern. This was on the Ysondre server.

Commento di 127605

I farmed this pattern for about 3 hours this morning, running between Addles and Yorgens. I gave up and tried it out again tonight, after about 5 minutes the pattern dropped at Addles. The respawn rate was really quick, as soon as I finished with one area and ran to the other, they were all back.

Commento di 134645

For some reason I was insistent on finding this pattern. The Tower Althaxx in Darkshore is the best place to farm this, I tried both. Not only do you get experience if you are higher level (I was 36 while farming it) but you don't have to run back and forth between farms. The spawn rate is quick in the tower, and even though the drop rate is stated as a bit lower, you can kill a lot of them a lot faster than the enchanters in Duskwood. Didn't have a single Ally bug me while I was in the tower, only saw a couple of low levels on the way through the territory. Took me about two hours at the tower to get, also picked up a bunch of greenies to disenchant and silk to tailor with, so bring your tailoring supplies! Saw the pattern on AH for 350g buyout on Frostmane right after I found them - I plan on selling the robes on AH for slightly below market value(8-10g).

Commento di 17424

Farming the tower for several hours now and still no drop. Droprate is awfull :(

Commento di 137021

:( still farming, havent seen it on AH either. Have been farming for 4 hours now!!!

Commento di Noise

I plan to make these robes to sell on AH. It took me about 10 runs through the Tower of Althalaxx to get this recipe to drop. I kept my high level hunter parked in the tower and bounced between killing the Dark Strand Voidcallers and opening Cat Figurines to get a Ghost Saber.

Commento di regexer

I'm a lvl 34 'lock, and I've tried farming in both places without success so far. I tried Duskwood first--farmed there for a couple hours. The advantage with Duskwood is the mobs are low enough that you won't die if you pull 3 or 4 of them (and with lots of wide open space you probably won't).

Then last night I tried Darkshore. It took me forever to get up there (I did get a couple flight paths on the way), and I opted to swim from Zoram'gar Outpost. It was safe, but very slow. I farmed the tower for about 2 hours and died and died until my gear was just about to fail. No drop.

I ran back and forth a lot in both places (running from graveyard to tower in Darkshore, and between Yorgen's Farmstead and Addle's Stead in Duskwood). Obviously, if you can stay alive in Darkshore (with help from a friend, for example), you'll run less. I imagine the drop rate is about the same in either place, so it comes down to preference.

In short:
If you want xp, mobs close together with quick respawn--and you don't mind dying a few times while you're at it, then do Althaxx Tower.

If you are willing to go without the xp, don't mind running back and forth, and you like to own your surroundings (solo), then farm Duskwood.

I'll post an update after I get the recipe or after I give up. :-) Happy farming!

Commento di 145284

If that information about Grimtotem Geomancers now dropping the pattern is correct, that's a big boost for the Horde side. It used to be damned near impossible to get the pattern or robe for a reasonable price.

Commento di brunik

this droped for me at lvl 68 (cuz i was too lazy to farm it at the right lvl), in the tower, from the first run; so i guess i was pretty lucky.

Commento di 173386

farmed for pattern at both farms in duskwood killed 42 enchanters in 45 minutes pattern dropped, im out.....

Commento di 167017

I actually got this off the grimtotem from 1k needles while i was leveling an alt. Had no idea they could actually drop of these guys and was suprised to see the drop rate and buyout price for this pattern.

Commento di dreadneck

I spend FIVE hours in Duskwood farming the pattern form the dafias enchanters!! But other than the time well wasted, it was worth it, they sell well for a mid-level tailor, considering how many warlocks will want this robes for: https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/quest=1796, which both sides do! You'll have all the warlocks on your server willing to pay anything for this stupid cloth....

Commento di Thottbot

Need more mobs to drop this, its too limited at the moment.

Commento di Thottbot

Easier to get the scroll off these mobs in my opinion. A lot more to kill in one area and fast repop instead of constantly switching back and forth between camps. Farmed about 5 hours worth of Defias Enchanters compared to 30 minutes of Voidcallers before getting the pattern. Voidcallers were also a better choice considering I was 36 and couldn't stock up on soul shards from the Enchanters.

Commento di Thottbot

There's a tower towards the northern strip of land, on the south-eastern part of the bend there of the road.

Had to kill ~30 of these guys to get it, but it did drop. I would suggest to bring a friend of some type, specially one that can heal some way, these mobs do like to run around a lot and get friends, and even if you're 40+ (like myself), that kind of damage adds up quick.

Commento di Thottbot

At the time of writing this, here are the probability of atleast 1 drop in n killings (using data from thott)

killing Defias Enchanters	-	Dark Strand Voidcalles	-
1	0,92%	1	1,21%
10	8,82%	10	11,4%
50	37%	50	45,5%
100	60,3%	100	70,3%
200	84,2%	200	91,2%
300	93,7%	300	97,4%

Commento di jamina1

Level 35 Horde warlock, took about 10 full clears of the tower, and several deaths. These mobs like to run away from you and aggro their adjacent mobs, so it might behoove you to be higher than 35. I would estimate I killed about 30 - 40 of them before the pattern dropped. Wish this was more convenient for Horde

Commento di Eluria

I have killed 97 enchanters in Duskwood and haven't seen a pattern drop... do these still drop in Classic? Getting ridiculous here.

Commento di SsevereE

Took me 5 hours for the pattern to drop, even got a blue boe, but I can confirm IT DOES drop (farmed at Tower of Althalaxx)

Commento di Boombomb

Dropped after clearing the Tower of Althalaxx for around 8 times. Pretty easy as a 60 lock, just Curse of Agony everyone from top to bottom, by the time they reach you, most of them are dead. Respawn is pretty fast, too, around 5-7 mins.

Commento di Kraagor55

I have to say that the drop rate seems a lot lower than 1%. Took five hours on my lvl 60 paladin to get this to drop for my 34 warlock. Up & down, down and up, kill everything in the tower. Make sure you empty your bags first, 'coz you'll pick up a LOT of crap...

Commento di Spellmonger

just sold this pattern for 100G on Grobbulus in about 30 minutes someone else had it on there for 200 i bet i could have gotten that much

Commento di Spellmonger

One of those items thats a great find when you get it but frustrating when you need it. found it during the The Tower of Althalaxx The Tower of Althalaxx quest line sold for 100g in about 20 min on the alliance ah on Grobbulus

I farmed the Defias Enchanters in Duskwood for about an hour and a half before this dropped. Which seems to be the norm from reading other comments.

Commento di Slaweq32

Got it on 98th kill, was farming tower in Darkshore

Commento di scionix

Just want to confirm for Classic, the Defias Enchanters do drop this. I tried running back and forth to both farms but after a couple of trips I decided to just hang out at Yorgen Farmstead as I was getting 3-4 enchanters there vs. 1-2 enchanters at Addle's Stead. I just stood in the south part of the field and waited for them to respawn. I was there for about an hour.

Fun story: I was farming EARLY in the morning to avoid competition and Ally. Didn't see anyone one else at all for an hour. Then, as soon as I agro 2 enchanters, a NE dru jumps me. I feared him right into a pack of mobs. Kill the dru, kill the mobs, and the recipe drops at the same time. It was pretty epic :)

Commento di Lifz14

It dropped on the first Dark Strand Fanatic I killed...I guess I was lucky. Their Voidwalkers hit really hard (~100 critical)

Commento di gildagger

Confirmed this does drop in SOM from the tower. Got it during my 5th tower clear. Probably 40-50 kills.

Commento di Avinai1

I got the drop in about 2 and a half hours at Darkcloud Pinnacle in Thousand Needles. By far the easiest place to farm it.

Commento di treii28

Woah, this scares me! Someone in the guild was looking for someone to make the robes for their lock, so I said I would help try to get the recipe since my lock would eventually need it. I parked my hunter in the tower and would hop on it occasionally to clear the tower. I had cleared it about 7 times with no luck.

I was browsing on here for rings for my newly-20 priest and saw the defias enhanters might also drop a ring, so after clearing the tower again, I brought my rogue down to duskwood and got it the recipe on the 4th enchanter. So I hopped back on my hunter, cleared the tower one last time, then swung over to the naga area to see if one of the rares with a possible ring was up,

While there, I decided to pick a few cat figurines. I picked 5 and got two cat spawns. I almost didn't see the second one and was riding away when I saw the dot on the minimap due to track beasts being on. And the ghost cat dropped the figurine!

Now I'm scared - my luck is never this good. Something bad is probably going to balance my karma now!

Commento di pauladin

Spent 3 days farming Defias Enchanters. Gave up and went to Tower of Althalaxx.

Second kill. Now i still have 24 minutes left on my hearth...

Commento di Lauridsen03

Killed 85 Enchanters for it in Vanilla Classic.

Commento di Astronian

2023 Update... took me about 150ish Enchanters to get this, with about 250 other enemies killed to get to them. In classic ERA, Enchanters spawn in the same spots as the Night Blades, so you should kill both enemy times to try to increase the spawn rates. Running between the two farms helps, but takes forever. Did it on Horde-Pagle, not many other people trying to get it. Of course when I finally get it the AH price drops from 50g to 25g.
