These are excellent mobs to farm for Motes of Shadow. They have low HP and low AC, and thus die very quickly. The droprate of motes is lower than in other places, but you should be able to kill them quickly.

Edit: Note that the droprate has been nerfed, so there may be better places to farm motes now.

Great for not only motes of shadow, but for netherweave as well. 37% drop rate or so and relative ease of kill....kill 2 birds with one stone.

These guys don't actually heal you after you kill them; they cast pain spike on you which takes away 500 health, but is a temporary effect. After combat the health removed by pain spike is refunded in the form of a 5 second healing over time.

And the drop rate for motes of shadow seems to have been lowered in the 2.1 patch, but these guys still do drop them.

i farmed these mobs for about 1hr and got 2 primal shadows, and got 5 stacks of netherweave. defenatly the best area i have found so far to farm netherweave. o and the crystal powder samples have a nice drop rate from these mobs.

Commento di 73715

Killed about 100 of them and only got 4 motes definatly not worth the time

Commento di Zebeyo

Hits normal damage for 130-150ish / hit
Furthermore they have 2 special attacks:
First is "Mind Sear" - similar to a priests Mind Flay - 3 ticks of shadow damage, interruptable with pummel and similar effect - probably silence spells too. the level 66 ons do around 325 dmg/tick to me as a lvl 65 warrior w/o any shadow resistance. The 65 ones hit for around 280/tick.
Second special attack is the "Pain Spike" which hits for up to a bit less than 520-580ish shadow damage. After being hit by Pain Spike you'll recieve a buff that gives you back the damage taken in 5 ticks over 5 seconds.

Effectively Pain Spike isn't an issue when fighting, unless you are so low on hp that it will kill you to lose the 5-600 hp for 5 seconds.

As of right now I've gotten 7 motes in 10 kills. and around 10 netherweave cloth

Very nice mob to grind.

Drops Oshu'gun Crystal Powder Sample, Mote of Shadow, Silver, AND Netherweave Cloth.

I killed about 35-40 mobs and looted 14 Motes of Shadow, 50 Netherweave Cloth, and 16 Powder Samples (did not count how much money I looted though).

Commento di 97155

I farm Motes of Shadow on these guys with no problem at all. After 1 hour I have about 30-40 Motes and that was 3 weeks ago (AFK for a few weeks atm). As others have said they are easy to kill and their repop time is very short, yet I have never spent more than 10 seconds waiting for one to repop due to the amount of them around the uber crystal. And they drop Osh'gun Crystal!

These mobs are extraordinarily easy to farm and well worth the effort for the loot. This is especially true of dot-based classes. I was farming with a shadow priest with barely 1100 shadow damage. The mobs were dead just after VT quit ticking.

I made an hour-long test circuit (with the Halaa buff) to see what the benefits would be. Unfortunately, I was competing off-and-on with a few other players, including a mage, an opposite faction warlock who coexisted, and a botting hunter who was eventually killed by the otherwise benign warlock. I also had about 5-10 minutes of downtime from being repeatedly double-teamed by a BM hunter and a warrior. So, it's a highly populated area and you'll probably have some PVP to deal with.

Despite all this, I got 40 motes of shadow, 5.5 stacks of netherweave cloth, a few greens, and about 15g from the silver the mobs drop.

As a shadow priest spec'd into spirit tap, I didn't drink a single time. Keep in mind that I was spamming shield on myself and was pulling 3-4 mobs at a time. When I needed mana I popped my shadowfiend on one of the mobs and dotted it by consuming inner focus.

Commento di Korasoff

I also did a farming test today. One hour grinding nothing but those mobs on a PvE server as a 70 Combat Rogue.

After selling gray items and repairing, I had come away with:

~25g
55 Motes of Shadow
86 Netherweave Cloth

Assuming 25g per Primal Shadow (seems to be the going price on my server), I therefore ended up with over 150g worth of mats for one hour. There was some competition for the mobs but it wasn't overwhelming. As the poster above surmised, DoT-based classes -- Shadow Priest and Warlock -- are quite probably exceptional at farming those, since the mobs are a bit spread out. Being able to attain decent Shadow resistance through self-buffs might also help.

Edit: Here's a quick estimate of the Mote of Shadow drop rate. At best, my killing speed must have been 4 Voidspawns a minute, for a total of 240 mobs killed during the hour. This makes the drop rate approximately 23%, although some Voidspawns did drop 2 motes.

Commento di 117045

It's nice for shadoweave tailors. Their drop rate of Mote of Shadow isn't excellent, but it is hard to find something better. But there's a great thing - Voidspawns very often drop 1-3 Netherweave Cloth. Just go around Oshu'gun - no waiting for respawn and two kinds of mats for Shadowcloth!

Commento di 56600

Anyone know if the drop rate of Motes of Shadow was yet again nerfed in 2.3.2? I've been farming these things for 30 minutes and have looted 4 Motes of Shadow.

Commento di Mandalorian

Truley easy grind, area is easy on the eyes (not to gloomy, nice and bright) Drops are as listed in comments above (Mote of Shadow, Netherweave, silver a decent greens)

I also did a 1 hour test with about 5-6 others out there farming aswell and my stats are close to the others. I'm a 70 Rogue with 10004 hp and had to use bandages 2 times as i ran though with out healing or sitting, each kill took anywhere from 5-10 sec.

Gold: 26g 8s (after selling greys)
Motes of Shadow: 39
Netherweave: 101
Greens: 3
Gems: 1 Shadow Draenite
Blues: Leggings of the sly
Crystal Powders: 19

all in all well worth the hour i spent there, i will be returning to say the least.

Commento di Sukiyaki

A nice place to farm Mote of Shadow.....

Commento di 53092

i farm these mobs on a regular basis for cloth and motes of shadow in the last few days i have gotten a few nice patterns 1 epic pattern bracers of the green fortress and a pattern for the mana injecter both within 2 days of each other. net worth on my server for around 1000g for a cpl hrs. of farming there

Commento di 129955

Have the mote of shadow drop from these been nerfed?
Was farming them for 20mins nonestop and not a single mote :3

Nerfed or was i just VERY unlucky? Would like someone to comfirm they still have a atleast "decent" drop %.. :)

Commento di 118697

Been farming these for a few hours now. Taking the fact that they drop 1-2 motes into consideration I've gotten 129 motes of shadow out of 461 kills. That amounts to 0.2798 motes of shadow per kill. Which does not mean 27.98% droprate, but rather 27.98% chance to get one mote of shadow per kill.

Commento di 167346

The motes that drop are sufficient enough for about 2 primals in about 30 minutes. I currently farm them for the enchant cloak chants, its a pain sometimes especially during peak server hours where you can often see 3-4 people farming these for the same reasons. But the drop rate is above average in my opinion.

Commento di Thottbot

They've fixed it so its only the void demons which drops mote of shadow?
Or am i wrong ?

Commento di Thottbot

looks to me like these things have a nice drop rate of netherweave and mote of shadow. I triad farming for about 5 mins and I just made a primal shadow. On my realm is goes for about 15g. Also, about half a stack of netherweave already.

Commento di Thottbot

Wow, I was just checking to see if there were any comments and someone posted just 5.5 hours before me >D

Yes they still drop motes of shadow. I went around the ring a couple times and collected almost 2 primals. They only have around 4700hp so they are pretty easy to grind.

Commento di Thottbot

After about two hours of farming these guys I found I had 6 primal shadow, over 100 netherweave cloth, and 5 random greens. I also made about 20g off of vendor trash and the loose coin they drop. Not as god as some other farming spots...but these things are so easy...its great =D

Commento di Thottbot

These are underrated. People arent expressing how AWESOME of a farm spot this is. Selling these primal shadow for 20g a pop on my server plus walking away with all bags full of greens to disenchant to shards and dust to sell at the AH on top of the money they drop which adds up too? Oh and then theres the ludicrous amount of netherweave that will have as well. Stack that with the great coin you get from auctioning the blue drops and this is my new favorite place.

Flying mount will be cake. These things die fast as hell and respawn quick as hell. Just run a circle around the place and clean house before blizzard realizes how BADLY they screwed up these elementals loot tables. There is no way possible this was intended.

Commento di Thottbot

Definately the best place to farm motes. Not only do they drop a nice amount of silver and Netherweave Cloth, the motes drop fairly quickly and you can collect Oshu'gun Crystal Powder Samples as well. Just run around and around Oshu'gun. Easy!

Commento di Thottbot

I am an alchemist i farm motes of fire,air and water on a almost daily bases and i hate it so when it was time for me to farm soulfrost mats i went to nagrand to farm from the voidspawns and i was very surprised in 2 hours i had 7 primal shadows and tons of mageweave cloth and money from these guys i would have keept farming but for money and loot but a horde pally and hunter seemed to be farming the same thing (im alliance) and since they were nice and let me live i decided i had what i needed and left so they could farm more voids so my recomendation is you farm the voids in nagrand (btw got 3 greens and 1 blue but thats luck)

Commento di Thottbot

This is the best place to farm!

Commento di Thottbot

Ive farmed this place for months. Just downloaded the patch and now the 32% drop rate (recorded by add on over the months) is gone. Killed 25 of them and got no motes. Time to move on.

Commento di Thottbot

thay have some sort of buff type thing but i dont get it

Commento di Thottbot

After 190 kills:

6 Primal Shadows
4 Motes of Shadow
6 Greens I DE'd
1 Recipie: Elixir of Major Mageblood (about 400-600g)
30 Crystal Powder (about a 17% drop rate)
160 Netherweave cloth
5 Greys for about 2.5g each

So all said, a LOT of money, even ignoring the Recipie. These guys are easy to kill, spawn EXTREMELY quickly (about 1-2 min after they die) and there are tons of em on the inner circle of Oshu'gun. I highly recomend them.

Commento di Thottbot

realy nice place to farm
12 primal shadows
1 blue sold for 60g
10 greens
350 plus neatherweave bloth

Commento di Thottbot

Commento di Thottbot

I also found a Design: jagged talasite from these voidspawns. i play Horde on Altar of storms 70 UD Warlock. Also found the mask of Veiled death.

Commento di Thottbot

Commento di Thottbot

Guess I was lucky got 1 primal per turn walking around the crystal or whatever sry that my english sucks

Commento di Thottbot

These Voids are good for primals...in 1hr of farming i had 1 primal and about 50 netherweave and made about 50g in selling trash items and cloth and coin from voids..then sold my primmal for 26g...by the way imm 62 hunter..easy for hunters because of haveing a pet..didnt last longer than 1hr coz horde 70's came and decided to play cat and mouse with me...owell...very good place to farm

Commento di Thottbot

Seems drop rate nerf in 2.4 :I farmed em lots and get like 1 mote in 15 kills

Commento di Thottbot

I'm gonna attempt this farming procedure lol, lvl 69 shadow priest on altar of storms, hope that lvl 70 warlock that just posted isn't thier :P

I"ll post results from 1hr farming

Commento di Thottbot

I think this is one of the perfect spots to farm efficiently. Go do the multiphase daily, farm these while you do the daily and a bit after. Everytime I've done this I get at least 1 primal shadow for 15 mins total work. As a mage it's great when I find a group of 4-5, aoe em down, epic fly to another phase bubble, down 3-5 more, rinse repeat. I get at least one primal shadow everytime. If you want to spend hours it gets less efficient since you're bound to run into other people farming.

Commento di Allakhazam

farmed these for about an hour and a half (not sure how many i killed), got the following:

17g
6 stacks of netherweave
57 motes of shadow
3 green armor pieces
1 green weapon
2 grey items

Not terrible. I've noticed the drop rate of mote of shadow has been changed horirbly since the last patch, and so i couldn't farm in the place i had been expecting to. Someone told me void-type demons are the only things that drop them now, so i decided to try here. Seems to be working easily enough. Usually about 1/3 dropped some, although i wouldn't call that the drop rate necissarily.

Commento di Allakhazam

Pain Spike deals rather heavy damage but heals it fully overtime after 5 seconds. That means, if you enslave it, use the pain spike when the enemy's about to die so it doesn't have the time to heal. On the other side, when fighting them, warlocks are fortunate for Fel Armor increases the healing you receive from the effect. So in the end, Pain Spike heals you.

Commento di Allakhazam

Enslaved one while questing around there, did a lot of damage but had low health and mana (easily replenished though). Two spells: pain spike and mind sear, was very good I'd say but did get in the way a bit >.>

I took a picture standing next to a warlocks ordinary V.W...
