How to Make Gold With Herbalism: Deepholm

In this guide we are going to go over how to make gold farming Heartblossom in Deepholm. If you have mining as your second profession, you can feel free to mine ore as you do this. Before you start, you need to make sure that you are at least level 82, and have 475 Herbalism. Its also a good idea to have the Gatherer addon so that you can see where your gathering the most herbs.

Be sure to have good gear equipped and your action bars set up if you are not level 85. If you aren't level 85 then it is possible that you may pull mobs, so be ready. Here is the route map:


This is not a set in stone map, so feel free to move away from it if you see other herbs popping up. This is just a basic route that I have found to work. Once you have all the herbs gathered, list them on the AH or spam trade chat to sell them. 

A good addon to do this is Auctionator. Another great addon to help is Tycoon from Manaview. I advertise this paid addon on the site because it can really take your gold making to the next level. Tycoon will tell you the best days and times to sell the herbs on the auction house, and what the average prices are so if there is some underpriced competition out there, you can buy them up and resell them for a profit. 

How to Get The Phosphorescent Stone Drake Mount

In this guide I am going to show you how to obtain the amazing Reins Phosphorescent Stone Drake mount. This great mount drops from the extremely rare spawn NPC Aeonaxx. Aeonaxx spawns in Deepholm. He flies in a mostly elliptical route around the middle of the zone.

This is what he looks like:

There are really only two way to find him: to be an extremely lucky individual and have him spawn right on top of you, or for you to camp him out. If you are going to camp him out, the best thing to do is to download NPCScan from curse.com and enter in Aeonaxx's code. I would highly recommend downloading NPCscan.Overlay as well. 

Aeonaxx's ID is - 50062. This is when he is friendly and unmounted. You will also want to enter the ID 51236. That is his ID for when he is mounted and being fought by another character, that way you will know what state he is in. 

Another good ID to enter is 3868 which is for a low level 15 bat that shares a spawn with Aeonaxx. If your NPC scan goes off and its Blood Seeker, you should find something else to do because Aeonaxx wont be spawning for a few hours at the least. Here is what he looks like:

Now the only thing to do is camp it out. If you are not content with just letting your character sit there waiting for a giant stone dragon, you can always go mine ores or herbs around the area. Or check the other rare spawns in the area who drop great rare items. Also, be sure to clear you WoW cache when you see a rare spawn. Once you see them once, NPC scan will not alert you again until you clear the cache.
