Crackling shard "reasonable" farm

Community General Discussion

I was able to find a fairly dependable farm for crackling shards.

the shipbuilders cave at 64, 20 is the place to go.

the mobs are all normal mobs this is not a hyperspawn. but the mobs have a pretty quick respawn times.

I don’t have exact drop rates but i think i got 1 shard every 200-300 kills. most were under 200 but one took nearly 1000. wowhead lists these at 0.7% drop rate, which is only slightly worse than the rares at 1% and you have to wait for those.

redwing falcons at 42, 74 have a better expected drop rate but there aren’t enough of them up at any given time to farm them efficiently.

happy hunting

My guildy smashed his out super early, i regret not doing this too because the drops seem to be horrible now, to the point i have seen one shard across three characters lol

Found one in my first 20 kills with shipbuilders. This place seems great so far. I was over 700 with nothing farming bees/wolves before.
