An Herbalist's haven
Sholazar Basin is an Herbalist's dream come true. Often, money wow several herbs appear on my mini-map, even though it covers only a small area. In fact, I can seldom take three steps without running into more!Three types of herbs grow in this province, and each have a chance to also spawn Deadnettle when you harvest them, as well as the usual Frost Lotus and Crystallized Life.
Tiger Lily is found along the rivers and lakes, of which there are plenty, and there is a special concentration bordering River's Heart near the center of the map. Goldclover is smattered all over, while Adder's Tongue literally seems to grow everywhere (click the herb names for Wowhead maps). I went herbing between 4pm and 5pm server time to test how much wow gold I could feasibly make, even during a semi-popular hour. I used my epic flyer, but I did not employ the services of any gathering addons. Here are my results for one hour's worth of work:
Tiger Lily: 46.
Goldclover: 47.
Adder's Tongue: 123.
Deadnettle: 44.
Frost Lotus: 3.
Eternal Life: 7. Using Wowhead price estimates, if I sold everything, I would earn: 566wow gold 50s for one hour's worth of herbing.
Beastly
Sholazar Basin is full of beasts, which makes it an ideal place for a Skinner to hunt. The mobs aren't especially densely packed, but there are so many that you could move around the map, killing as you go, and not run out of spawns. Aside from the small pockets of Oracle and Frenzyheart outposts, the only area that does not contain beasts is in the northeast, at the Avalanche and the Lost Lands, or the snowy and brown areas on the map, respectively.The Basin also holds one area that will allow you to farm wow gold for Icy Dragonscales, and this is the Savage Thicket in the north, which appears on the map as a muddled grey area.
