I’m trying to farm special cogwheel-type drops in “Motherlode!” to make the mount, and you can’t just use the drop down “reset” option to reset the mobs.
But they DO reset.
I think it takes about an hour, but does anyone know for sure what the timer is?
btw- my hat is off to anyone that crafted this when it was current. It’s absurd what is required to craft this thing, even when you can afk-solo it … I can’t imagine dragging people through it at a real Mythic difficulty. >(
If it’s Mythic, then it resets weekly.
Sorry-- not the BOSSES. You’re right, they’re weekly.
I mean the trash. The cogwheels that are needed to build the mount drop from TRASH.
And while some trash in other dungeons can be reset simply using the drop down option from our chr panel, these don’t.
You have to wait and hour or two … and then the trash resets.
Oh, gotcha. Yeah, it’s an hour or two for trash resets. Usually. Things might be buggy right now, so it’s hard to say if that still hold true currently.
Anyone know EXACTLY what it is?
I have to farm a metric ston of these things and … hitting another run right when the timer expires will help. 
They reset 100% if you complete the dungeon and reset. I dunno about a faster way otherwise though, not without ressorting to someone else entering with a clean dungeon before you do.
In “Motherlode” … there’s no way. lol Too much trash spread out all over the place. It would obviously take less than 1-2 hours, but I would lose interest after one or two runs killing 900 mobs when there are only 6 in the whole dungeon I need.
And that’s not entirely true, anyway.
I was also recently farming Sunwell Plateau for Eng patterns and I was able to go in, kill a bunch of mobs and … just “reset.” Didn’t need to clear out the entire place.
Maybe raids are different than dungeons? That’s why I specified this is for “Motherlode” in case there was something unique about this place.
But I can’t just “reset” the dungeon and have these mobs come back. I have to wait an hour or two.
It is. I’ve done mythic ruby life pools for weekly enough to know for sure. And yeah raid is different, as evidenced by the number of kill trash groups for epic in group finder.
Otherwise like I said, the only way to circumvent the lock is to have someone else in your group that isn’t saved enter first as the leader.
I set a timer and went back in after 1 hour and 12 mins… and it reset.
So my guess is it’s 1 hour.
