Good place to get these if you are low level is to go to Tanaris and farm the Dust Stormers there. I got about 6 in around 2 hours. I dont' have the map of the spawns of the guys, but go to wow.allakhazam.com and go to the player map whose name starts with the letter D. His map is right on for the spawns of these guys

Commento di 51991

I've been getting the essences faster than the breath. Same with the earth ele's with essences dropping more than core of earth!

Commento di 63288

The absolute best place to farm this stuff is from the Dust Stormer's(55-57) in the NW corner of Silithus. I spent days everywhere else and countless hours looking for Breath of Wind, now I'm finding 3-5/hour. Approx coords are 30, 17. Core of Earth can also be found a bit deeper into the corner, behind the Dust Stormers

i cant ever get this lvl 44 so i cant go to silthus

Commento di VooktaVelen

I have tried 3 times in NW silithius, i keep getting essence of air, i have so much of it that i had to vend some. BoW has only ever dropped 3 times ever for me in Silithius.

I make the phantom blade and farm my 6 BoW's i need for the blade circling the ogre camp in Tanaris in approx 1 to 2hrs.

I have had no luck in Silithius getting these. Also in Nagrand i have had no drops at all from them.

Commento di 64664

Whenever you're in Tanaris and encounter those elementals, I really suggest killing them at all times.
Regardless what the droprate says. There is really a great chance that they will drop it anyway.
Unfortunatly they dwell in quite unpredictable paths, which makes it hard to farm.

Commento di 69947

I farm mine in Silithius, got 6 in 1 hour, you just have to be patient. 10% Drop rate while being able to find your next target right away beats 85% while not being able to find the mob at all anytime in my book.

Commento di 52235

Using my lvl 70 hunter (farming for an alt), I was able to get 7 of these in less than 40 minutes in NW Silithius. Also collected 2 14-slot bags, 26 Essence of Air and 8 Elemental Air.

The whole process was much easier that I thought it would be.

Commento di 33173

Not good luck with this in NW Silithus. Got 1 drop in 55 kills. :( At least I got some l33t Hydraxian Waterlord rep out of it...

Commento di Nystedt

Silithus was seriously the best, no doubt. Though, a small piece of luck doesn't hurt. Grinded with my 70 Mage for my warrior who want to craft Phantom blade. Got the first off my second, then it took a while to get the two next, but suddenly I got 3 in a row. As my MobInfo2 Addon said, I had killed 46, and about 14% drop chance (Mostly cause of the last three I got in a row) but I guess, as everyone says, 10% drop rate, and undoubtly the best place to grind theese for.

Commento di 11180

My goal: 10 Breath of Wind

My target: Dust Stormers in Silithus

Throughout the course of my 242 kill and 1.5 hour journey on my level 70 Destruction Warlock, I finished my goal and got some other nifty things:

13 Elemental Air
54 Essence of Air
92 Core of Elements

and some greens as well as 2 BoE patterns. The grind wasn't particularly difficult, but somewhat annoying seeing how half of the time they didn't drop anything at all. The drop chance on these Breaths is closer to 0.0413 than 0.11 as WoWhead states from these mobs, but again, that is due to the fact that they don't always drop loot. Happy hunting!

Commento di Astry

NW of SIlithus is really best place to farm.
4 BoW, 20 Essence of air, 18 core of elements and 2 green cloth in 40 min

Commento di ragnarbh

I was farming these in the NW corner of Silithus, and I killed 60 elementals before one BoW dropped. So it took me about 3-4 hours to get a stack of 10.

Sold 3 of these for 1000g to some Pally, lucky me!

Commento di 115705

Either I'm incredibly unlucky or they nerfed the droprate. I got a 2% droprate after 127 kills from the Dust Stormers in Slithus.

Commento di 164163

I'm having the same problem with the drop rate, I cleared the area twice and only got 1 breath of wind. The item has vanished from the AH on my server... today someone put a pair up on the AH for 172 gold.

Commento di 120209

Northwest Silithus has got to be the best place EVAR for these. Got eleven of them in twenty-six minutes flat (didn't keep a kill count), seven from Whirling Invaders and Dust Stormers and another four from The Windreaver, the elite elemental boss that appears during the invasion.
Tip for Mages- turn on Dampen Magic and go wild. Run around spamming rank one Arcane Explosion until you have a sizeable flock (I found it helpful to grab mobs with Ice Lance), then AOE them down. Works better if you have Magma Shield on.

Commento di theslish

I need 8 of these for elemental leatherworking and I can tell you that Tanaris is a terrible place to farm. Without a 70 to back me up and easily grind, I can not head into Silithus where the droprate is less attrocious apparently. The point is, either grab some 70 friends or hope that there are some on the AH for a cheap-ish price. Honestly, when they are up on my server tehy go for at least 20 (except for today in which they are 16 start bid). Esentailly, if you need these, I hope you have some gold making strats, 70 alts, or a nice group of homies who'll either shell otu cash or time getting you these. eitehr that, or wahtever you're making is obselete by the time you can make it (Helm of fire *cough* *cough*).

Commento di 169060

try very hard farming in tanaris searching for gusting vortex..not a good idea..just need a very good place for farming as i need lots of it for my blacksmithing..make sword and lots of armor need it..can be very high sold in ah tho :P

Commento di Thottbot

Basic info that is needed.

Spawn times is around 8 - 10 minutes for them to respawn. When they spawn its random between Land Ragers and Gusting Vortex's.

Gusting Vortex's drop rate is around 20% - 30%. Then 70% - 75% of the drop will be Breath of wind. Then 15% elemental Air and maybe 10% for something else (*or less*).

Dont trust on the Living Storms to be there for you, if you come across one, Excellent, if not, No big woof. I have yet to get a Breath of wind from a Living Storm.

Commento di Thottbot

I spent 4 hours finding, tracking, killing, and cursing at the Gusting Vortex Elementals in Tanaris. Here's the Data I gathered from it.

Time: ~ 3-4 hours (lost track of time)

Kills:

28 Gusting Vortex Elementals
36 Land Rager Elementals

Loot:

7 Breath of Wind
2 Core of Earth

Location:

Broken Pillar, Eastmoon Ruins, and The Gaping Chasm in Tanaris

Analysis:

- Drop rate for my push was 25%. More data would be needed to confirm this as an absolute drop rate. First 17 kills dropped 1 Breath. Next 11 kills dropped 6 Breaths.

- Spawn is shared by Gusting Vortex and Land Rager. Kill both types of elementals. Land Rager does occasionally drop Core of Earth.

- Do not bother killing anything else. Scorps, etc. are NOT placeholders for the elementals.

- The elementals roam in a wide area, but their paths are predictable and they respawn in certain areas.

Commento di Thottbot

I got 6 of these in 2hrs killing Dust Stormers in the top left hand corner of Silithus around the big mountain there. The drop rate is low if they drop anything at all; I wanted Essence of Air but seems it's less trouble to buy it at AH.

Commento di Thottbot

I spent ages last night in Tanris finding and killing the air elementals, with no breath of wind. Today i found two, killed two and got two breath of winds. Just the way it goes...

Commento di Thottbot

I went to Tanaris from comments from thotbot and I roamed the abyssal sands area for about an hour and netted 4 breath of wind out of 8 kills on the vortex's. Not a bad drop rate...probably my lucky night but I will take it nevertheless. I will try again in a day or two and see what happens then...Good Luck and happy hunting. Also, if you happen to have mining as a profession, take advantage of tanaris and run the South Western Edge and follow it around to the South and to the East. I ran into 4 mithril mines, 1 truesilver and 2 thorium and also got a red ruby and a huge emerald..good pickings too.

Commento di Thottbot

Farming in Silithus for 30min, around 19, 20 where is full of air elementals i have results:
-1x Breath of Air
-20x Core of Elements
-12x Essence of Air

So, Breath of Air drop is freakink low !

Commento di Thottbot

I did a bunch of circles around Tanaris.. I killed about 10 of these "GUSTING VORTEX" and none of them dropped anything. I couldnt loot.

The best place I found to get Breaths of wind is SILITHUS.

Go to NORTHWEST SILITHUS. And grind on the Dust Stormers.. I got 9 breaths of wind within an hour. As a lvl 70 human warrior I took them out in 1-3 shots. I had to wait for all to respawn.

I killed a lot though (about 200) and the drop rate was very low. But it got me what i needed within 1 hour. In addition, they dropped tons of "Essence of air", Elemental air, and tons of core of elements.

Commento di Thottbot

It's been awhile since I've grinded the Airs in Silithus (probably 6-8 months) but the drop ratios have definitely been changed. Using a mob info tracker the drop rate on Essences (valuable for what used to be the best enchants) used to be quite low (~10%) but just yesterday it was closer to 30% (based on about 70 mobs). These Breath of Wind though, used to drop much higher than the 4-5% I'm seeing now. Still, Silithus seems to be the easiest place to get them.

Commento di Thottbot

There were no Breath of wind on the AH so I went to Silithus to farm some. Out of 100 kills I got,
5 Breath of Wind
5 Elemental Air
8 Essence of Air
33 Core of Elements
and 1 green drop
The drop rate is so poor nobody farms them. I have the patience so I was able to get what I needed and a few for the AH.

If you really want to get breath of wind the best place ive found is silithus 23,19 the crystal vale
i got 6 in around an hour or so lots of air elementals and fast respawns you can also get lots of core of earth its not great drop rates on either but its the best in the game ive found anywhere

Commento di Thottbot

This item is too rare for the stuff its good for...

Commento di Thottbot

I play a 70 Warrior, and a guildy asked for a Phantom Blade. same story, No BoW in the AH, so I studied up here on thottbot, and chose to visit the Dust Stormers (55-57) NW Silithus. took about 1.5 hours, i killed 99 Dust Stormers to get the 6 BoWs. Pain in the butt, but it's do-able. so yeah, drop rate of about 6%, but at least once i got 2 in a row, and then of course spans of about 30 kills where not a BoW to speak of. happy farming.

*edit- i went back to NW silithus to farm some more for the AH, and confirmed the drop rate of about 5% from the dust stormers.
13 drops from 266 of these jerks. (that's actually 4.8%)

Coincidentally, someone else on Earthen Ring was farming this item today, and the AH is full of them at a 9G A PIECE buyout. This is also making the buyout for the Phantom Blade pretty well ridiculous. so if you're here trying to figure out why the weapon you want costs more than you have, that's why.

Commento di Thottbot

I just spent 30 minutes in the NW corner of Silithus and got 4 B0W, 16 Essence of Air, 25 CoE, and 3 Elemental air. Coords are around 33,12. I have a 70th LVL tank warrior. Good supply of Dust stormers - I was able to keep killing without having to wait for a respawn. Killed about 70 Dust stormers to get 4 BoW, so drop rate stinks, but the time wasn't too wasted.

Commento di Thottbot

Farmed @ 20,25 in Silithus

Out of ~150 Mobs dropped (45 minutes of farming)

50 Core of Elements
27 Essence of Air
8 Elemental Air
7 Breath of Wind
2 Random green drops

The respawn rate is pretty good, so you may farm them without downtime.

Commento di Thottbot

I was just farming them and in about 30-45 minutes (Time flys while you're having fun farming) i got

66 core of elements
about 20 essences of air
10 elementail airs
and all 8 of the breath of winds I was looking for

The best place to farm them is in the north west corner of Silithus. The respawn quickly and there are two areas of mobs for them. Happy Hunting ;)

Commento di Thottbot

Ok so theres no breath of wind in the AH for about 4 days now.... so im pissed and so I contemplate farming - so I do it.
I'm a 70 Arms warrior with only 4 epics and a few blues trying to get 12x beath of wind so I can make 2x phantom blades for my rogue...

After roughly 3 hours of farming (which i've never rly done before) I farmed:

Quantity Chance to drop(%)
-18x Breath of Wind - 2.50%
-16x Elemental Air - 2.22%
-103x Core of Elements - 14.30%
-67x Essence of Air - 9.30%
-8x greens - 1.11%

I killed 1 storm elemental guy about every 15sec (literally after my charge CD was rdy)so that made roughly 720 kills
Misc.
-The place was deserted basically the entire time. I saw a 66 human warrior farming and i asked what he was farming and he said Breath of Wind and I told him the same thing. So he basically hit the road when he knew i was farming around. Later, I saw a 58 UD rogue just killing a few while doing a quest and left 10min later. So no real competition is in this area. There was almost always a mob in sight to kill!
-Bandages used: 8x heavy netherweave
-Pots used: 1x lv 45 hp
-I rly suggest going here if your a 70 to farm whatever I listed above.
-Oh and give a good score if you thought this was helpful :D.

i killed 12 today, all dropped winds its 50% ur just unluckey suckas

Commento di Allakhazam

Dropped by the 3 mob I killed in Silithus (north-west). I got lucky I gues.. :P

Commento di Allakhazam

Dust Stormers in Silithus.

They have a low % drop rate acording to the list above but I got 2/2 for my quest in about 10 minutes.

That's after spending over an hour trying to get them from Tanaris like a lot of the other people who've posted. Not to mention that unlike Tanaris, the one's in the North-West of Silithus have about 10-15 mobs just walking around.

So even if they have a low drop rate and I was just lucky, there are atleast mobs to grind if you're able to get exp from them (they drop core of elements and elemental air too)

Commento di Allakhazam

I think either the info here is not correct, or Blizz has completely taken the Gusting Vortex's out of Tanaris. In 30 minutes, I only found THREE of them, and NONE of them had anything at all to loot. I did a little better in Sithilus.

Commento di Allakhazam

I searched for around an hour and a half the other day and didn't even see a gusting elemental. I looked where they have been before but it looks like they were replaced with Ground Pounders. I might be looking in the wrong place, if so can anyone help me out on where the general area is to find these guys?

I farmed these in Silithus with my lvl 70 warlock and got 13 in about 2 hours

Commento di Allakhazam

I wanted to make Blackstorm Leggings for a lower-leveled rogue. I therefore needed 8 Breath of Wind. I thought this would take me days to do. I managed to get all eight in about 3.5 hours.

Here are some observations & recommendations:

- Be high enough to handle two, three, or more creatures at once. I was level 62.
- Have a mount! Have an epic mount if possible. My level 62 was able to cover a lot of ground on her epic.
- I never saw Land Ragers and Gusting Vortex at the same time in the same place. I decided to kill all Land Ragers with the hope that a Gusting Vortex would spawn there next time. I think (gut feeling here) that for every two Land Ragers killed about one Gusting Vortex spawned.
- I printed off a map of Tanaris and marked it every time I found a Gusting Vortex (and marked the ones that dropped the desired item). There is an interesting pattern that I will not share here... go create your own! =)
- Even though my map showed a definite spawning pattern I continued to explore the rest of the map ...just in case.
- I was pretty much the only player in Tanaris so there was no competition.

Here are my stats: 8 drops for 32 Gusting Vortex killed and 2 drops for the three Living Storm found. (This is more than 8 because another character had some drop several months ago)

Good luck!

Commento di Allakhazam

The rate on the vortex things in Tanaris is right. I killed three of them, got 2 Breath of Wind.

Commento di Allakhazam

Killed like 40 of them today in Silt and only dropped 2 :(

Commento di Allakhazam

I took today my level 70 paladin to farm these in Silithus, killing Dust Stormer and Whirling invader. To get the 6 I needed I had to kill about 200 mobs, I got 86 cores, 40 essence of air, 20 element of air, and for quite a few others I got nothing.
This was done during Windreaver's presence.
Droprate for Tanaris should be a lot less, as I've killed the only air elemental I could found in the whole Tanaris and got nothing. I stayed in Tanaris for about in hour looking all around it for some air elemental, got in the proces some mithril and thorium but no breath of wind.

Commento di Allakhazam

For something that is required by 3 diff trade skills there are not enough spawns and those that do spawn have a crapy drop rate. These things are up to 15g on Burning Legion. Rediculous! But boy IF you need cloth you can get it from anywhere just close your eyes and click... grrr.

Commento di Allakhazam

i to would like to say that finding these elements is beyond a joke. Im yet to come accross one in Tanaris. I have soloed it many a times looking an i even brought a lvl 50 hunter with me from my guild could anyone let me know how to find these bloody things please!

I have heard that you can also find it off, of some creeps in Silithus

Using the map above I farmed one every 10-15 minutes.. it's hard going (since I need 8!) but it's not as bad as people seem to make out.. just wander around all the different patrol routes and it seems to work.

The droprate seems lower than 45% for me too, maybe about half that, but its still reasonable for such a useful item which you dont need too many of.

Commento di Allakhazam

10 kills straight and getting killed left and right trying to run near all those 47 and 48 roamers and not one Breath, wth this 50% crap come from? I call Bull#$%^....... : ( >

I camped one of the spawn locations this evening.
The place holder is a Searing Roc. Spawn rate is about 8 minutes (timed with my thorns buff).
Given that there was some delay from spawn until I actually attacked and a couple short breaks here are the results.

6 Hours
40 Rocs
2 Living Storm
0 Breath of Wind

If this is not fubar then I don't know what is.
WoW is a great game, but this is unreasonable.

I guess if you don't have tracking you are not supposed to be an elemental leatherworker.

Commento di Allakhazam

Blizzard need to give us more breath of wind....need 6 to make a sword.... got 1 out of 4 killed
Too bad...looked for hours....
Killed around 50 rock elementals and never got a single core of earth :-( Sucks too!

Commento di Allakhazam

the % seems to be right for me

each 2-3 mobbs kills = 1 breath of wind. 5 of them in ~20-30 min
sold @ AH for 7g each ^^

Commento di Allakhazam

I hate the breath of wind...i need like 8 to make some legging as a leatherworker.They should improve as drop rating and as a mob number. I found 5 in tanaris,killed everyone for about 3 time and got 3 breath of wind in two hours...but if i need about 20 what should i do,farm three days continously for them.Like i say "improve the numbers of mobs" for better resoults.

Commento di Allakhazam

I just wanted to thank all of you for the entertaining and informative posts on this subject. Now I know where to go and what to do, because I intend to do some farming for breath of winds. When it comes to wind, we could lighten up a little!

I could not help but notice some funny puns:

"Dropping wind" sounds very much like "breaking wind". If the "drop rate" in Tanaris is much less than in Silithus, might it not explain the reason for more flies and a reduction in air quality in the latter?

Pheeeoow! And I thought it was just because a Horde had passed this way recently.

Oh no, I'll be in for another bout of being ganked by Horde again sometime soon.

Commento di Allakhazam

The best way of finding them so far: get a hunter on your group in the middle of Tanaris and let him track elementals. Takes about 20-30 minutes to find each.

Note: kill earth elementals as well, they seem to share respawn rates.

Commento di Allakhazam

Killed 3 gusting vortexes today, all 3 dropped the wind. So the 50% drop rate is correct, or I am just extremely lucky lol

Commento di Allakhazam

the Heart of Fire wasn't too bad. If you run to Searing Gorge, turn left(south). When you see the first camp on the left, turn right, into the countryside. there is a little lava pool out there and it spawns two different fire elementals, but only one at a time. I farmed this little pool and got my two Heart of Fires in 3 hours. they spawn every 10 minutes. I kept myself busy killing the spiders and elementals in the camp between spawns. good drops, good exp.

Commento di Allakhazam

I estimate that the stated drop rate of 45% from a Gusting Vortex is out by as much as a factor of 10. Combined with the difficulty of chasing the wind around the desert :) this makes Breath of Wind well worth its AH price.

Edited, Wed Jun 8 22:22:43 2005

Commento di Allakhazam

The rate on the vortex things in Tanaris is right. I killed three of them, got 2 Breath of Wind.

Commento di Allakhazam

lol kill the elts they drop like 3 for me plus lots of other stuff oh and if you are ench most the stuff here de in to illusion dust which for me sells at 4-7 each

Commento di Allakhazam

Random probabilities make for really boring adventures.

A 1 in 100 chance may never roll, or you could do 3 time sin a row!

Take heart, if they aren't dropping come back another day or time. I've had this experience. Some days they drop, some not.

I have not tried gathering them since Silithus though...

But now that my bank is bulging, I just by them bulk cheap in the AH. 75s -1g is a bargain - more than 2g makes it worth your whiole farming yourself. Going blind in the white sand dunes is for younger folks than me;)

Ps - is that true regarding the your level and the drop rate linked to level? Group membership eh? Placeholder? The more I look at it the more the game seems to run on Casino - "house wins" rules. Thanks for that.

Commento di Allakhazam

THis is incorrect with regards to the drop from Cyclonian. I tested the theory of dropped, and so far I've killed him 66 times, and I've gotten a single Elemtal Air from him. I belive he no longer drops the Breath of wind.

Commento di Allakhazam

on my first trip farming the winds in tanaris i got 2 but the last 2 times i have went i spent 2 hrs tracking them and did not find 1 vortex to kill which i think is complete bs i would rather kill 50 mobs and get 2 then spend hrs looking for 1 mob and pray that it drops

Commento di Allakhazam

well i killed 3 gusting vortex and got 2 breath of winds and i was merely passing by...

Commento di Allakhazam

It's quite easy to farm these, I myself am a hunter and can track them so I got 5 breath of winds in half an hour.. But then again, i was speedkilling, running all over tanaris hunting Gusting Vortexes and those earth elementals(can't remember the name), got a core of earth aswell so, not a bad trip! ^^

What's really annoying is getting the heart of fires! :/ I was farming all day long and got one stinking heart of fire!

Commento di Allakhazam

In abour 6 visits to Tanaris, I only ever found one Gusting Vortex and he did not drop breath of wind. Buy at AH but watch for the bargains. Some peeps are pricing way too high.

The Gusting Vortex is considerably easier and earlier to kill than the other two "high droppers". I was level 50 when fighting them and got 2 breaths out of maybe 10 kills - while my level 46 friend got none in about as many kills. I therefore have reason to believe that the percentage relates to level 60 chars, but, as was said earlier, with chances you can always "get lucky". The breath is indeed used in many skills/receipes and more often more than just 2. It therefore does not surprise me that on a "young" server (such as Moonglade) the price in AH is considerably higher (at the moment about 10% of all players are level 60) - in Moonglade at this time you either find no Breath of Wind on offer, or it costs around 4 gold. The median price, I believe, relates to ALL servers, so it is no wonder it gets cheaper later and is shown here for a few silver.

I believe the drop rate is correct. I have absolutely no problem finding these elements. I have farmed for 1 to 2 hours per day and received 3 to 4 Breaths of wind to use for my Blacksmithing Recipes.

I've killed no less than 12 of these and only have 3 Breath of Air, which I need 6 of to make a weapon. Plus, the gusting vortex are outnumbered by the blisterpaw hyenas, basilisks (different name), and scorpion things by about 100 to 1.. for EACH of these monster types. I seldom fought a vortex without one or more of these other monsters aggroing on me, very frustrating.

Well, I have been killing Gusting Vortex by the droves. So far have dropped 92 of them. Only found 2, count them "2" Breath of Wid's. So the percentage they have on them for Tanaris is way off. Its more like less then 2% then 45%. You would think that at 45% like it states above, I would have somewhere around 42-44 of them. Well, I have a whopping "2" of them. So this cant be correct. Not even in the same city much less the same ballpark.
