Any idea of a place to farm for https://www.wowhead.com/item=13052/warmonger?bonus=6659#dropped-by?? Wowhead's loot table isn't super reliable.

I got several Warmonger drops from Flawless Draenethyst Sphere caches from Kum'isha (opening them on a 20 gave me 3 with level 20 required).

Hey, trying to confirm this. Still true?

When farming ilvl 28 BoE's from legion. Certain items that drop, such as https://www.wowhead.com/item=121070/hexweavers-charm?bonus=6654 says "Players can win this item when selecting the following class specializations:"
Does that mean if I spec Guardian Druid, this item will not drop for me if I am farming solo?
Does that mean if I spec Guardian Druid, this item will not drop for me if I am farming solo?

I'm looking to make a farmer on my account with an active sub. This guide says level 24 OR 25. Is there any major difference? Also curious if anyone has any armory links of their farmer just to get an idea of what i'm doing here. Thanks

Back with another farming update!
This time I turned my attention to TBC in the hope of finding a source for epic weapons. We know there is a method to obtain them as a Blade of Wizardry Req 18 i27 exists, as well as reports of a Russian(?) player with Singing Crystal Axe.
To farm efficiently I decided to run Mana Tombs, Sethekk Halls & 15~ Auchenai Crypts (world farming has also yielded no results for me at level 17). I used a level 46 Druid with a speed set (193% movement speed in Cat form) to boost 4x level 17s in various Chromie Times. Sethekk Halls took me 4 minutes to collect, kill, loot, reset and re-enter the dungeon on all 5 chars. 10 runs took me 40-41 minutes. If you want to do this farm you will have to kill the Time-lost Controller's as you go - they will MC you and kill your 17s otherwise. I used the following:
/tar Time-lost Controller
/cast Shred
/stopattack
Its also worth killing the last boss at the top of the stairs - this allows your 17s to collect loot from the mailbox!
In total I have completed the following:-
After doing Mana Tombs 101 times & clearing AC 15 times and getting 0 epics, I switched and settled on SH as it was previously the highest level dungeon (65) currently available to level 17s. Note: I have seen conflicting information regarding Old Hillsbrad online. Some sources say 64, some say 66. My instinct was that OH was the highest but I haven't tested it. I suspect that there is almost nobody that has farmed/looted Hillsbrad effectively (for obvious reasons...). Even 20s don't tend to loot trash there when boosted for gear, and levellers rarely stay if they're "unlucky" enough to get it through LFD.
These are the epics I received (they were all looted on level 17s in TBC Chromie Time):-
Run #211
Run #244
Run #289
Run #451
I have almost come to the conclusion that TBC epics are not currently lootable from Auchindoun dungeons on a 17. I know that there are reports of The Night Blade being lootable from these dungeons, but I believe these were acquired using Junkboxes. I am still hesitant to say that epics can't be looted here because I have yet to loot one on my high level - which seems odd considering the number of runs completed. Either they really are extremely rare - or not on SH/MT (edited due to forensic shithousery) loot tables.
I have also consulted two other farmers on NA servers. One also only looted epic patterns in 200 runs of Mana Tombs. The other received no epic drops in 200~ runs.
Things left to try:
Old Hillsbrad - welp
HUGE UPDATE
Levelled my 4 looters to level 18:
Completed 112 clears of Durnholde Keep (61-63 mobs per clear)
0 epics.
Went back to Sethekk Halls and (using a new loot technique I won't share yet as still testing - might be false information) I have so far looted 4 epics in 132 runs (33 runs: 1 epic). This is obviously way better drop rate than running 17 looters BUT RNG is RNG and this could just be a fluke... however more exciting than that these are the drops:
#41 (Level 18s Looting using different technique)
#62 (Level 18s Looting using different technique)
#132 (Level 18 Looting using different technique)
AND #99 yielded:
It could well be that 17/18 share loot and the new level 18 looting technique makes absolutely no difference whatsoever. So far I have cleared over 700 TBC dungeons and this is the only epic piece I have looted. It is the first time I have seen a TBC armor piece below level 20. Obviously the goal is to obtain the weapons. Here is a breakdown of the dungeon clears:
Level 17s:
343 runs of SH
101 runs of MT
15 runs of AC
Level 18s:
112 runs of OHB
129 runs of SH
I will continue the farm and if I am convinced that epics are dropping at faster rate I will share the method for others to test.

shadowlabs requires lvl 20 to enter i think, so you can't go there with lvl 17 farmers in order to get the epic weps to scale below lvl 20.

Thats correct. It's still an auchindoun dungeon though, or did they move it?

I will probably continue with it off and on. Aiming for 1000 runs if I can!

it's still there but there was no point to include shadowlabs in the dungeon pool when farming for epic weps as it was known it required lvl 20 to enter beforehand.

He said Auchindoun, which I can confirm isnt the case. There might be issues with some other dungeons, but there is no problem with Auchindoun.
Hes not a 100% sure. He was like 18 or something. And its not like leveling to 18 would enable anything.

he was very clearly referring to auchindoun dungeons that could be entered by a 17, you twit.
Goesid
Twink Info Legend
yes, since hes running on a 17, hes obviously only testing those dungeons that can be entered. But he questioned
And since they are on the Auchindoun loot tables, theres no point blaming Auchindoun, he can blame the individual dungeons he has tested, but Auchindoun has nothing to do with it.
