Fishing in SW? or killing endless amount of mobs? :(

WoWhead says "its 0,0000000000001% or something like that... it has dropped 14 of 3,3 millions time fished in orgrimmar..." So what am I gonna do?

I think your best chance to "farm" this:

1) Run Ragefire Chasm, as there are a lot of low level recipes dropping.

2) Farm raptors above Ratchet

Yea its too good to be true, a sprint per minute. But the farming part is still horryfying me.
I like fishing, also I need to fish to skill up my fishing/cooking, where exactly should I fish for this recipe?
 
If you are going to farm this in RFC I wish you luck, because whenever I've been farming something it takes ages to see it drop only to lose the roll.
Is it too cheeky to try and reserve something?

You can solo RFC as F2P if you're horde or DM if ally, so no need to worry about getting outrolled for the recipe when it eventually drops :p

Found about 3 recipes in ~ 30 runs. Took me 50 runs for the shield I was searching for. (4 recipes)

I took it that they was ally since the mentioned about fishing for it in SW.

I know you can also farm for it in DM, but I like RFC more because it's just a quicker tank and spank run.
 
I have had it drop 5 times between 2 character all in the Barrens. I Farm the raptors above Rachet for cooking purposes and I always get drops.
 
I've seen it drop the most off the pirates in the last part of the deadmines (4 times.)
 
You can't really "farm" it unless you count just playing PvE as "farming"...a couple notes:
  1. Stay out of Stockades and BFD due to the level of most of the mobs in there...as a general rule of thumb, any mob above level 20 doesn't drop recipes under level 100 (always exceptions of course).
  2. If you're going to "farm"...kill stuff that also drops something else you're looking for (pets or gear). You'll probably get that pet (or whatever) before you get the recipe you're looking for.
In about 2 years I've seen the swiftness recipe twice and the agility recipe once. Good luck.

RFC for sure. if you ran it 20 times and didn't get it i would be amazed. i usually get it while q'ing on my leveling toon while he is 15-16
