Best way to get songflower buff?

WoW Classic WoW Classic General Discussion

First of all, how often do they spawn and how you find out when they are scheduled to do so? Second, do you have to grind the plant salve to cleanse the corrupted ones or is there some shortcut that lets you bypass that? Do locks offer a service for summoning you to one about to spawn?

TIA

The rundown:

  • There are 9 total Songflower spawns in Felwood, of which only 6 or so are active at any given time.
  • Once cleansed, a Songflower becomes usable for the buff exactly every 25:00 minutes.
  • Nova World Buffs is a great addon that adds Songflower timers onto your zone map
  • Cleansing a Songflower yourself first requires completing the quest “Cleansing Felwood” from NPCs near Emerald Sanctuary (South Felwood). This quest has a Horde and Alliance version. Once you’ve completed the quest, you’ll need to ask the NPC for a Cenarion beacon, which once held in inventory, will allow your character to loot corrupted soul shards from slain enemies in Felwood, or other collectables from herb/ore nodes that can be turned in for Cenarion Plant Salve. Cleansing each Songflower will consume 2x Cenarion Plant Salve.

Get the add-on Nova World Buffs. Then when you look at the map of Felwood it will show you the location of all the songflowers and timers on them if that data is available.

Once one is cleansed it respawns every 25 minutes and I believe it will respawn like four times or something after that. Then it eventually comes back as corrupted and will need to be cleansed with Cenarion Plant Salve. I’d suggest carrying salves with you so you can cleanse if you come across a corrupted songflower. But salves are not required. They just might save you some time running around trying to find a cleansed songflower.

Before chronoboons it was common to see warlocks summoning in Felwood for the songflower buff. Since chronoboons were introduced nobody really does this anymore.

If you are on Mankrik cluster, around buff times Meowza will often offer summons to a soon-ready songflower, keep an eye on LFG. Meowza MVP and I would literally sacrifice you all to keep him safe.

Some of the DMT summoners will also sell songflower summons for 50g.

Best way to know is just to ask in lookingforgroup

50g? what the hell is whitemane’s gold inflation good lord

A stack of LIPs is like 55g

I think it is just that it takes 3 toons in a pvp-area to summon and raiders get payout that are in the thousands, that 50g is decent price.

I would argue that doesn’t really help the perception of gold inflation favouring GDKP raiders over people who farm/profession, but it is what it is

10

I just looked it up. 1,000g sells for $8 IRL on whitemane. Whitemane players are all gold buyers/sellers. It’s why they don’t care about paying a ridiculous amount for 1 buff.

I am not, thus your statement is false.

There are many but ‘all’ is a statement which can easily be proven false.

If you participate in gdkps, you’re part of the rmt problem.

Such a tiny gnome brained thing to say, honestly. You’re probably just bad at farming gold and want something to blame other than yourself.

14

People who participate in gdkps are part of the RMT problem, and are “Less than 70 IQ”.

15

You’re misplacing blame. Cheaters are the problem. People who lack integrity are the problem. The lack of action taken against these cheaters is the problem. What do you think would happen if they banned GDKP? Do you think the cheaters will respect that ban? That’s a rhetorical question, Mr tiny gnome. No, they won’t care if GDKP is banned because they’re cheaters. They’ll find a way to pay money to get what they want and the people who don’t cheat will suffer. SoD is living proof. Banning GDKP doesn’t solve anything because GDKP isn’t the problem.

16

Listen, mr “less than 70 iq” tiny tusk. If you participate in gdkp you’re benefiting from those who buy gold to use in them. For once, guilty by association applys here. If people would stop doing gdkps, there would be less incentive for bots.

17

If you participate in the economy then you benefit. If you use the AH you benefit. If you enchant someone’s gear and accept a tip from a gold buyer you benefit.

So what? That’s not my problem. That’s Blizzard’s problem to deal with. Yet we have people like you blaming legitimate players that have literally nothing to do with it just because they use a loot system you don’t like. Your misplaced blame and the misplaced blame of those that share your flawed perspective is doing more harm than good. By misplacing blame you’re giving those who are actually responsible an out. Those who are responsible (Blizzard) can now just “ban GDKP” to appease the players because it’s “totally GDKPs fault”. How is that working out on SoD again?

Stop misplacing blame, please. You are making the problem worse by doing so.

19

You call me intellectually dishonest and then in the next sentence say that GDKP participants are just as bad as gold buyers.

Really bro? You’re hopeless.

Yeah… Umm we’re talking about a loot system in a video game.

Why did you just delete and re-post the same thing?
