Leatherworking Druid question
December 1, 2008 – 11:09 pmPosted by: Asie
I play a Resto Leatherworking Druid, and skinning is fairly important to me while I level LW and keep my guildies stocked. I recently found one of the best places to farm Nerubian Chitin is phased out in Icecrown if you continue too far along the quest line. Are there other places where this is the case? Should those of certain professions avoid questing in certain areas until they have a good stock of goods?

I think this is a unique situation, and I get the feeling that the fact that these mobs have the highest rate of giving Skinners Nerubian Chitin is specifically because they’re a limited time only deal. A ‘get while the getting is good’ sort of deal. That’s just my feeling though, I have nothing to back that up.
There are other places you can get the chitin, those mobs simply had an inflated rate at which they coughed it up. Other spots in Icecrown have Nerubians you can skin, you get hefty amounts of it in Azjol-Nerub/Ahn’kahet, and… Raptors in Zul’Drak give Nerubian Chitin, according to Wowhead? My brain hurts.
Well, anyway, I think this is a unique case. I can’t think of any situations where ore or herbs are phased out, and I can’t even think of any other situations where important types of leather are phased out. How about you, my lovely readers? Can you think of anymore of these situations so we watch out for them? Most of the other phasing scenarios I can think of just get rid of annoyances or mobs that don’t drop anything of worth.
