• WoW Classic 20th Anniversary Phase 6 World PvP Guide | How To Win In Silithus & Eastern Plaguelands?

  With Phase 6 starting, the undead are beginning to overrun Azeroth, and Silithus and Eastern Plaguelands are now under their control! Currently, World PvP is open in these two zones for WoW Classic 20th Anniversary. Champions of both Horde and Alliance can defeat the undead threat in these zones to earn honor and benefits for their faction!

  World PvP quests in Silithus and Eastern Plaguelands differ in their formats and rewards. Horde and Alliance players can choose which zone to participate in based on their needs.

  

  Eastern Plaguelands World PVP Guide

  How To Play?

  The goal of PvP in Eastern Plaguelands is to compete for control of up to four towers: Crown Guard Tower, Eastwall Tower, Northpass Tower, and Plaguewood Tower. Controlling a tower grants bonuses to the faction, which in turn increases damage against hostile undead in the zone.

  • Horde quest available: Emmisary Gormok
  • Alliance quest available: Emmisary Whitebeard

  Tower capture is similar to a seesaw battle. To capture and maintain control of a tower, the faction must have more PVP-enabled players on the same side (type /PVP_ON in the chat). When the capture bar reaches full, the faction has successfully captured the tower.

  Buffs And Rewards

  Each tower controlled increases your faction's damage against undead (1% for one tower, 5% for four towers). This buff applies to all members in Eastern Plaguelands and Stratholme, but not within Naxxramas.

  In addition, each tower has unique effects:

  • Crown Guard Tower: Located in the southern part of Eastern Plaguelands, controlling the tower grants the faction access to a graveyard north of the tower, making it easier to respawn there after a death.
  • Eastwall Tower: Near Light's Hope Chapel. Controlling this tower will periodically send NPC reinforcements to Northpass Tower (regardless of whether Northpass is controlled or not).
  • Northpass Tower: To the north, this tower contains an interactive object that grants a 30-minute +5% hit chance buff when used by a player of the same faction.
  • Plaguewood Tower: To the northwest, controlling this tower unlocks a Ghost Flight Master, allowing players of that faction to quickly travel between the four towers on a special flying mount, allowing for rapid reinforcements.

  Strategy

  World PvP in Eastern Plaguelands clearly requires strategic considerations. The four towers provide different benefits and therefore have varying importance.

  Defending Towers

  Crown Guard Tower is the easiest tower to defend. Because of its close spawn point, even if it is destroyed, it can be quickly returned to the battle line. It's a costly undertaking for the opposing faction to capture, but once captured, it's virtually impossible to lose, making it a highly recommended tower.

  Plaguewood Tower is highly strategic, providing quick support to the other three towers and effectively strengthening their defenses.

  Offensive Towers

  Northpass Tower provides a significant hit chance bonus, while Eastwall Tower helps your faction capture Northpass Tower.

  The importance of towers is ranked Crown Guard Tower > Plaguewood Tower > Eastwall Tower > Northpass Tower. However, controlling multiple towers simultaneously can sometimes be more valuable than defending a single tower, especially when targeting an enemy tower in a vulnerable position.

  

  Silithus World PVP Guide

  How To Play?

  PvP quests in Silithus are distinct from those in Eastern Plaguelands. The primary focus here is item collection. Silithyst geysers are scattered throughout Silithus map. Players can interact with them to collect Silithyst.

  Once a player collects Silithyst, they are marked as PvP players. While carrying Silithyst, their movement speed is slowed, though some speed-up abilities are generally still usable.

  While carrying a Silithyst, players cannot use mounts. If they take damage while carrying Silithyst, they will drop it, creating a Silithyst Mound on the ground that other players can pick up. Each player can only carry one Silithyst at a time, so after collecting it once, they must return to deliver it before they can collect it again.

  Each faction has a Silithyst Extractor on Silithus, where players must bring their harvested Silithyst back for delivery. The first faction to reach 200 Silithyst deliveries is considered victorious, gaining the victory status and associated regional buffs.

  Rewards

  Personal Rewards

  For individual players, each Silithyst delivery grants +10 Cenarion Circle reputation and 198 Honor Points. After delivering Silithyst, players also receive a buff called Traces of Silithyst, which lasts for 30 minutes and increases melee and spell damage by 5%. Successfully completing the entire quest will earn you rewards including experience, potions, and WoW Classic 20th Anniversary gold.

  Victorious Faction Rewards

  When a faction reaches the 200 Silithyst delivery mark first, they gain a Cenarion Favor bonus in Silithus region and Ahn'Qiraj Raid, increasing Cenarion Circle reputation gained from monster kills by 25%.

  This bonus persists for the duration of the faction's victory until the opposing faction completes its 200 Silithyst delivery and reclaims victory.

  Silithus PVP Strategy

  Compared to Eastern Plaguelands, Silithus PVP is significantly more ruthless. It doesn't encourage you to diligently complete transport tasks, but rather encourages you to intercept other players. Therefore, this PVP mission requires cooperation from your team, and you should keep in mind the following points:

  Escort

  Players carrying Silithyst are often limited in speed and easily intercepted, so organizing an escort is crucial. Members with speed and stealth should handle transport, as well as conduct sneak attacks and interceptions.

  Interception

  Ambushes are most likely to occur in the middle (about the same distance from both Silithyst Extractors) or near your team's delivery point. Escort members should secure these areas in advance. If your team approaches the victory delivery point, you can send more members to disrupt the opposing team.

  Although the rewards for these two world PVP missions are relatively modest, the two factions are evenly matched, making this mission highly engaging.

  ---

  While there's no level limit for participating in this PVP event, players with higher levels and speed-boosting gear will clearly have an advantage. There is reliable and plentiful supply of WoW Classic 20th Anniversary gold on sale at IGGM, which you can use to acquire PvP-appropriate gear on the auction house.

• WoW Classic 20th Anniversary Tier 3 Sets For Each Class | Required Materials And Crafting NPCs

  WoW Classic 20th Anniversary Phase 6 will launch at 3:00 PM PDT on October 2, 2025, marking the final phase before The Burning Crusade expansion. Naxxramas raid is the most challenging part of Phase 6.

  Naxxramas is a trial in itself, and to complete it, you'll need Tier 3 gear. Tier 3 gear represents the best craftable gear in WoW 20th Anniversary Classic Phase 6. Let's take a look at how to collect it.

  

  Tier 3 Sets

  Each Tier 3 set has different components, and possessing 2, 4, 6, and 8 pieces of equipment grants bonuses. In addition to the standard eight-piece set, rings dropped by Kel'Thuzad also count towards the set bonus.

  How To Unlock Tier 3 Set?

  The Tier 3 set is derived from Desecrated tokens dropped by Naxxramas bosses. Different bosses drop different Class tokens. However, before crafting Tier 3 gear, you must complete a prerequisite quest, Echoes of War.

  This quest can be accepted before entering Naxxramas raid. Commander Eligor Dawnbringer in Light's Hope Chapel in Eastern Plaguelands requires you to kill specific monsters in Naxxramas raid:

  • Deathknight Captain x8
  • Venom Stalker x3
  • Living Monstrosity x5
  • Stoneskin Gargoyle x5

  Note that entering Naxxramas requires a certain amount of WoW Classic 20th Anniversary gold and materials, depending on your Argent Dawn Reputation. Completing this quest unlocks the crafting quest for the Tier 3 set.

  Tier 3 Set Drops

  The eight pieces of the Tier 3 Set are divided into three types, each corresponding to a different class.

  Warrior, Rouge:

  • Desecrated Helme
  • Desecrated Pauldrons
  • Desecrated Breastplate
  • Desecrated Gauntlets
  • Desecrated Bracers
  • Desecrated Waistguard
  • Desecrated Legplates
  • Desecrated Sabatons

  Priest, Mage, Warlock:

  • Desecrated Circlet
  • Desecrated Shoulderpads
  • Desecrated Robe
  • Desecrated Gloves
  • Desecrated Bindings
  • Desecrated Belt
  • Desecrated Leggings
  • Desecrated Sandals

  Paladin, Hunter, Shaman, Druid:

  • Desecrated Headpiece
  • Desecrated Spaulders
  • Desecrated Tunic
  • Desecrated Handguards
  • Desecrated Wristguards
  • Desecrated Girdle
  • Desecrated Legguards
  • Desecrated Boots

  Various parts are dropped by the following bosses:

  • Head: Thaddius
  • Shoulders: Patchwerk, Grobbulus, Gluth
  • Chest: The Four Horsemen
  • Wrist: Anub'Rekhan, Grand Widow Faerlina, Gluth
  • Hands: Maexxna
  • Waist: Noth the Plaguebringer, Heigan the Unclean, Gluth
  • Legs: Loatheb
  • Feet: Instructor Razuvious, Gothik the Harvester, Gluth

  Naxxramas is the most difficult dungeon. Building a full set of Tier 3 gear is nearly impossible with random groups alone. It's best to join a stable group familiar with Naxxramas' mechanics.

  Naxxramas's minions are more deadly than the bosses, especially Death Knight Legion and Abominations in Military Quarter, who pose a significant threat. Survival is paramount to navigating this raid. Even non-tank classes should forgo some pure damage-dealing gear in favor of stamina and armor.

  At the beginning of the raid, no one had Tier 3 gear. They relied primarily on rare cold resistance gear and a few dungeon drops. In the mid-game, use Frozen Rune dropped in Naxxramas to craft epic Frost Resistance sets.

  You can use the following gear to tackle the Naxxramas raid:

  • Cloth Armor: Frostfire Regalia sets
  • Leather Armor: Polar Set
  • Mail/Plate Armor: Icy Scale Mail (for Hunters/Fury Warriors) and Icebane Plate sets (for Tanks).

  

  Tier 3 Materials

  In addition to Desecrated tokens, different classes will need to find different NPCs and use materials and WoW Classic 20th Anniversary gold to transform the corresponding pieces into true Tier 3 gear. Some materials can be dropped by mobs in Naxxramas.

  Wartorn Scraps

  • Wartorn Cloth Scrap
  • Wartorn Leather Scrap
  • Wartorn Chain Scrap
  • Wartorn Plate Scrap

  Profession Materials (not monster drops)

  • Arcane Crystal
  • Arcanite Bar
  • Cured Rugged Hide

  While Tier 3 sets are the best sets in Phase 6, they will soon be replaced by newer gear with The Burning Crusade expansion. However, they still hold valuable collectible value as a testament to your bravery in Phase 6.

  ---

  Naxxramas is incredibly difficult, resulting in a significant consum. You must be prepared for potential wipes. Therefore, stocking up on consumables is crucial for your team to complete the raid quickly and efficiently.

  If your consumables are completely depleted during the raid, you can buy WoW 20th Anniversary gold from IGGM and continue your fight.

• WoW Classic 20th Anniversary Farming Argent Dawn Reputation To Get Rewards

  In Azeroth, besides the most well-known Alliance and Horde factions, there are actually many neutral factions. These factions don't discriminate based on your faction affiliation; most have their own goals or a mission to protect Azeroth.

  Whether you from Alliance or Horde, you can earn reputation with these neutral factions by completing quests, thereby increasing your reputation level and receiving the associated rewards.

  This article will provide basic information about Argent Dawn, along with how to earn reputation with it during WoW Classic 20th Anniversary and the final rewards.

  

  About Argent Dawn

  This neutral faction possesses a strong sense of justice and is dedicated to protecting Azeroth from evil. In-game, members of the faction do their daily work at Plaguelands, involves protecting Lordaeron from Scourge.

  In terms of backstory, Argent Dawn originated from Order of the Silver Hand. However, after the death of its main leader, Alexandros Mograine, the organization gradually fell apart and lost sight of its original purpose.

  Thus, Lord Maxwell Tyrosus, one of the key members, left and founded Argent Dawn. The remaining Order of the Silver Hand then became Scarlet Crusade.

  Compared to Scarlet Crusade, Argent Dawn is more open and inclusive, and possesses a more fair and peaceful approach. However, the two organizations currently maintain an uneasy partnership.

  

  How To Earn Argent Dawn Reputation?

  All quests and activities that earn Argent Dawn reputation are concentrated in Plaguelands, with Chillwind Camp and The Bulwark in the west and Light's Hope Chapel in the east.

  Please note that when you want to farm reputation in Plaguelands, you need to travel to the location corresponding to your faction:

  • Alliance: Chillwind Camp
  • Horde: Bulwark at the junction of Western Plaguelands and Tirisfal Glades

  Kill Enemies You Encounter In Plaguelands

  Unlock encounters and defeat enemies throughout your available Plaguelands area to increase your reputation. Please note that enemies of different rarity or levels will only grant you a limited amount of reputation.

  • Undead mobs in Western Plaguelands will grant reputation until your reputation reaches 3000.
  • Undead mobs in Eastern Plaguelands will grant reputation until your reputation reaches 6000.
  • All elite monsters in Plaguelands and common monsters in Scholomance and Stratholme will grant reputation until your reputation reaches 12000.
  • Bosses in Scholomance and Stratholme will grant reputation until your reputation reaches Exalted.

  Complete Plaguelands Quests

  This zone offers quests to complete, which can raise your Argent Dawn reputation rank to Exalted. Other zones, such as Blackfathom Deeps and Desolace, may also offer some quests.

  Special Cauldron Quests

  Scourge has placed four cauldrons on four farms in Western Plaguelands to inflict the plague. After completing the quests leading to The Scourge Cauldrons, you'll need to alter each cauldron through subsequent repeatable quests to thwart Scourge's evil plans.

  The four farms are:

  • Felstone Field
  • Dalson's Tears
  • The Writhing Haunt
  • Gahrron's Withering

  After completing each repeatable quest, you need to find and speak with the following NPCs:

  • Alliance: Alchemist Arbington in Chillwind Camp
  • Horde: Apothecary Dithers at The Bulwark

  These NPCs will give you a Glass Focuser, which you can use to obtain the following materials from undead monsters:

  • Osseous Agitator
  • Somatic Intensifier
  • Ectoplasmic Resonator

  You can then exchange Runecloth and Arcane Quickener from other regular NPCs by WoW Classic 20th Anniversary gold, then find all cauldrons and modify their properties.

  You gain 25 reputation points for each cauldron modification. Note that Arcane Quickener only lasts 30 minutes. Runecloth can also be obtained by killing undead monsters.

  The materials required to change the properties of each cauldron are as follows:

  • Felstone Field Cauldron: Runecloth x4, Arcane Quickener x1, Osseous Agitator x6
  • Dalson's Tears Cauldron: Runecloth x4, Arcane Quickener x1, Somatic Intensifier x5
  • Writhing Haunt Cauldron: Runecloth x4, Arcane Quickener x1, Somatic Intensifier x5
  • Gahrron's Withering Cauldron: Runecloth x4, Arcane Quickener x1, Ectoplasmic Resonator x4

  Always Equip Scourgestones

  After your character reaches level 50, you can complete the quick quest "Argent Dawn Commission" at accessible Argent Dawn camps to obtain an Argent Dawn Commission and equip it.

  Equipping this item will also reward you with additional Scourgestones when you kill monsters in Plaguelands.

  After obtaining a certain number of Scourgestones and turning them in, you'll receive 25 reputation points and an Argent Dawn Valor Token, which can be used to gain another 25 reputation points.

  • Minion's Scourgestone - From Undead monsters level 50 and above - Turn in 20 at a time.
  • Invader's Scourgestone - From Undead monsters level 53 and above - Turn in 10 at a time.
  • Corruptor's Scourgestone - From Elite Undead monsters and bosses - Turn in 1 at a time.

  In addition, completing Stratholme quest "The Active Agent" will also grant you a Seal of the Dawn or Rune of the Dawn. Equipping these will enhance your ability to fight Undead monsters.

  

  What Are Argent Dawn Reputation Rewards?

  After reaching Revered Argent Dawn reputation, turn in 10 Argent Dawn Valor Tokens to the quartermaster at your camp to receive the following single-resistance shoulder enchantments:

  • Nature Mantle of the Dawn
  • Arcane Mantle of the Dawn
  • Frost Mantle of the Dawn
  • Flame Mantle of the Dawn
  • Shadow Mantle of the Dawn

  After reaching Exalted, turn in 25 Argent Dawn Valor Tokens to the quartermaster to unlock the multiple-resistance shoulder enchantment, Chromatic Mantle of the Dawn.

  Other rewards will require redemption from the quartermaster or will be awarded as you farm reputation. Note that after Phase 6 launches, you can earn even more rewards by obtaining Frost Resistance recipes and completing quests.

  After completing reputation farming for a particular faction, you can continue to earn new faction reputation in zones belonging to other factions. However, completing new raids will be even more important after Phase 6 begins!

• WoW Classic 20th Anniversary Phase 6 Instructor Razuvious Boss Fight Strategies & Mechanics

  WoW Classic's 20th Anniversary Phase 6 is about to begin, with Naxxramas, the final major raid in Classic, serving as the core of Phase 6. Naxxramas' 15 bosses are divided into 6 zones, with Deathknight Wing generally considered the most challenging. This zone demands extremely high positioning, coordination, and DPS, requiring precise team tactics to successfully defeat them.

  This zone contains three bosses: Instructor Razuvious, Gothik the Harvester, and Four Horsemen. While Four Horsemen are the most challenging, Instructor Razuvious is the first boss players will face and will drop some WoW Classic 20th Anniversary gold and Tier 3 gear. While relatively straightforward, if you don't understand the mechanics of this boss, your team could end up getting wiped repeatedly.

  

  Instructor Razuvious Mechanics

  This boss's mechanics are unique. Due to the extremely high damage dealt by his basic attacks and abilities, no single class can withstand them. Therefore, conventional tanks cannot handle the boss. Priests must use Mind Control to influence Deathknight Understudies surrounding Instructor Razuvious, thereby withstanding the boss's immense damage. Therefore, the skill level of the priest in charge of Mind Control directly determines the difficulty of this boss.

  Team Requirements: at least two Priests and four Tanks, and in the situation they don't lack WoW 20th Anniversary Gold, it's best to prepare some potions.

  Instructor Razuvious's Skills

  • Basic Attacks: No tank can withstand Instructor Razuvious's basic attacks without using a Shield Wall.
  • Unbalancing Strike: Can eliminate any Main Tank in top gear who isn't defending.
  • Disrupting Shout: Targets all players within the boss's line of sight, draining their current mana and dealing an equal amount of damage. Any class requiring mana will need to avoid it by blocking vision.

  Deathknight Understudies

  The boss's abilities are too much for any tank to handle, so the heart of this battle, Deathknight Understudies, will be the true tanks.

  This battle will involve four level 60 Deathknight Understudies. Priests can use Mind Control to control them, granting them three abilities.

  • Attack: Performs a normal attack on the current target.
  • Taunt: Forces the taunted target to attack the taunter, with a 20-second cooldown. (A taunted boss cannot be Out of Taunted until another Deathknight Understudy taunts them.)
  • Shield Wall: Causes the caster to take 75% of all damage for 20 seconds, with a 60-second cooldown.

  Once a cleric is freed from Mind Control, they cannot be mind controlled again for one minute. Therefore, at least two clerics are required to take turns controlling the clerics and fighting the boss. For unskilled players, four clerics are recommended.

  Battle Positions

  Four Deathknight Understudies are stationed at the four inner corners of the prototype arena, while Instructor Razuvious patrols the arena.

  The priest, responsible for controlling an Understudy in the first round, will use Mind Soothe to approach a Deathknight Understudy on the right side of the ramp when the boss patrols to the inner arena. Then, use Mind Soothe to control it. Immediately, order Deathknight Understudy to cast a Shield Wall and taunt the boss.

  The other tanks will pull the remaining three Deathknight Understudies to a slightly further back on the ramp, as shown in the image. The priest will then control the Understudy to stand on the ramp and pull the boss down.

  The healer should stand behind the right wall to block the boss's view and allow them to heal the off-tank and Deathknight Understudy holding the boss. The main tank should stand between the holding Understudy and the healer, waiting for Understudy to break free from the priest's control and taunt the boss.

  Melee DPS classes can simply stand behind the boss and damage it once it reaches its designated location. Ranged DPS classes with mana, such as mages, hunters, and warlocks, should stand against the left wall and damage it. Three seconds before the boss casts Disrupting Shout, all ranged DPS should hide behind the left wall, wait for the spell to finish, and then return to damage it. Repeat this cycle until the boss is killed.

  

  Tips

  These are the basic positioning for this boss fight. Next, let's discuss some tips to keep in mind when killing the boss.

  Tip 1

  The priest controlling Understudy in the first round will inevitably be hit by an Disrupting Shout because of their positioning. Therefore, this priest should deplete their mana before engaging the enemy to avoid being killed instantly by an Disrupting Shout because of excessive mana reserves. If the priest has WoW Classic 20th Anniversary gold, it's a good idea to prepare some Superior Mana Potions in advance for emergencies.

  Tip 2

  A priest's mind control lasts for a maximum of one minute. When the mind control effect is about to end, another priest must begin mind controlling the next Understudy and be ready to take over the taunt. The priest who has been taken over can press ESC key to actively break the control of the Understudy. The main tank then taunts the uncontrolled Understudy, and the priest selects another Understudy to prepare for the mind control transition. This prevents the Understudy from breaking control prematurely and dying prematurely from continuous damage.

  Tip 3

  To reduce the chance of misses and resistance from mind control, as well as premature Understudy breakouts, it is recommended to assign two priests to improve their hit rate and max out the second row of Shadow talents, Shadow Focus.

  Tip 4

  In addition to the two healers assigned to each of the two off-tanks holding Understudies, and the two healers assigned to the main tank who will be recovering an uncontrolled Understudy, the remaining healers can be assigned to Deathknight Understudy, who is responsible for the boss. Melee and ranged DPS will not take any damage if they make no mistakes.

  This is a relatively special boss battle. Since the main character of this battle is not the player, as long as you master the mechanism, you can defeat this BOSS even if the team's equipment is very poor.

• WoW Classic 20th Anniversary Phase 6 Gold Farming Guide: What Items Should You Stock Up On?

  WoW Classic 20th Anniversary Phase 6 is coming soon, and Horde and Alliance players will join forces to fight Lich King's invasion. The highlight of Phase 6 is undoubtedly the newest raid, Naxxramas, which promises to be both the most difficult and the most consumed.

  The opening of new raids means more powerful gear. Warriors of Azeroth will need to upgrade their gear to its best condition to face the powerful bosses in the raid, so the auction house will be extremely active. Furthermore, in Phase 6, you'll need WoW Classic 20th Anniversary gold even more than in previous phases.

  

  Why Do You Need Gold?

  Naxxramas, the most challenging raid, doesn't have specific gear requirements, but you'll need at least the best gear from Stage 5 to survive. Therefore, many players will probably take gold on items from the auction house.

  In addition, there's an entry fee to enter Naxxramas raid, which requires materials and gold. This fee is waived only after reaching Exalted reputation with Argent Dawn.

  Entry Fee:

  • Honored: 60 gold, 5 Arcane Crystals, 2 Nexus Crystals, and 1 Righteous Orb.
  • Revealed: 30 gold, 2 Arcane Crystals, and 1 Nexus Crystal.
  • Exalted: No items required.

  Players participating in this raid will also need to craft consumables like frost resistance potions, which consume a significant amount of WoW Classic 20th gold. You can either save gold or flip items for a profit later.

  Recommended Farming Items

  Tier 1

  • Nexus Crystals and Arcanite Bars

  Since entering Naxxramas requires an entrance fee (unless you're Exalted), and Nexus Crystals are essential, they're also essential for crafting and enchanting Tier 3 sets, so demand for them is expected to surge.

  These two items are the most essential hard currency, with rigid demand and direct correlation to dungeon progress, placing them at the top of the list. Nexus Crystals may increase in value by over 200%, while Arcanite Bars may increase by 100%-150%.

  Recommended Farming Locations

  Arcanite Bars cannot be farmed and can only be converted by an alchemist using Transmute: Arcanite skill, which has a two-day cooldown.

  Nexus Crystals can be obtained by players with Enchanting profession by disenchanting epic gear at level 56 and above. (Requires Disenchantment skill)

  Tier 2

  • Greater Frost Protection Potions, their ingredients, and recipes

  Several boss encounters in Naxxramas require large quantities of Greater Frost Protection Potions, so they're sure to be in high demand when Phase 6 opens. In addition to the potion itself, its recipe and ingredients will also be in high demand on the auction house.

  Greater Frost Protection Potions' recipes can be dropped by Frost Giants (with a 4% chance), but these locations are already monopolized by a few guilds, so it's not recommended for average players to waste their time farming them.

  The primary ingredient needed to craft Greater Frost Protection Potions is Elemental Water. Demand is expected to surge, potentially tripling or even doubling their value on the auction house.

  Recommended Farming Locations

  The best way to farm Elemental Water is at Cresting Exiles in Arathi Highlands. Simply farming ordinary monsters will drop it, with a drop rate of around 17%, though the number of monsters is relatively small.

  Another location on a small island off the northwest coast of Stranglethorn Vale hosts. Farming Lesser Water Elementals here also yields Elemental Water, with a drop rate of approximately 14%. However, the advantage here is that there are more monsters, making it more efficient.

  Tier 3

  • Greater Shadow Protection Potion and its ingredients and recipes

  Because bosses in Naxxramas raid deal shadow damage in addition to cold damage, Greater Shadow Protection Potions are very popular.

  Recommended Farming Locations

  Greater Shadow Protection Potion recipes drop from Shadow Priests and Shadowcasters in Eastern Plaguelands, with a drop rate of only approximately 1.9%, and it takes about 1.5 hours to get one. Because of the long and inconsistent time required, farming the recipe is not recommended.

  You can instead farm Grave Moss and Fadeleaf, the ingredients needed to craft the potion.

  Grave Moss primarily appears in the following locations:

  • Raven Hill Cemetery (Duskwood)
  • Kodo Graveyard (Desolace)
  • Ironbeard's Tomb (Wetlands)
  • Scarlet Monastery Graveyard
  • Stromgarde Keep (Arathi Highlands)

  Fadeleaf primarily appears in the following locations:

  • Dustwallow Marsh: Often yields the highest amounts of Fadeleaf.
  • Stranglethorn Vale & Arathi Highlands: Good alternative locations, though the amount can depend on other players.
  • Swamp of Sorrows
  • The Hinterlands
  • Alterac Mountains
  • Badlands
  • Razorfen Kraul
  • Scarlet Monastery

  While the value of these items is not always easy to come by, and the recipes are often worth more, a steady income of WoW 20th Anniversary gold is more important than taking a chance on those high-value items.

  

  Other Key Investment Items

  Essence Of Water

  Besides being a component of Greater Frost Protection Potion, Essence of Water is also a key ingredient for crafting Frost Resistance equipment.

  • Recommended Farming Locations: Felwood (7% drop) or Eastern Plaguelands (6% drop).

  Felcloth And Mooncloth

  Felcloth and Mooncloth have a wide variety of uses, from backpacks and resistance gear to exchanging for Tier 3 sets.

  Both items are also in high demand, but they rank lower because of their high farm volume and current value. While their potential for further appreciation may be smaller than the top items, they remain valuable throughout the game.

  • Recommended Farming Locations: Felwood, Azshara, and Dire Maul (Warpwood Quarter). Competition in these areas is fierce.

  These are some of the most worthwhile items to farm in WoW Classic 20th Anniversary Phase 6. Besides farming, players with a high profession level can also actively craft items, which can also bring in significant profits. Hopefully, this information will help you become a gold tycoon.

• WoW Classic 20th Anniversary PvP Honor Ranking System Overview And The Ways To Earn Honor Points

  If you've exhausted all the currently playable WoW 20th Anniversary dungeons and raids, or simply grown tired of battling pre-programmed enemies, it's time to dive into PvP combat for even more rewards and fun!

  PvP system you can now experience has been significantly improved compared to the original Classic. Not only can you earn WoW Classic 20th Anniversary gold through PvP combat, but you can also continuously level up through victories.

  The more ranks you unlock, the rarer gear and related titles you'll earn. It's important to note that each week, your Honor Points are calculated based on your PvP achievements, which determine your ranking.

  This article will explain the basic mechanics of PvP Honor Ranking system and provide strategies for earning Honor Points to earn rewards.

  

  Overview Of PvP Honor Ranking System

  This system incentivizes PvP combat through rankings and allows you to earn Honor Points through different types of combat. If your engagement is high enough, you can earn up to 500,000 points per week.

  Your Honor Points total is calculated weekly, and upon reaching a certain threshold, your PvP rank increases. Higher ranks increase your chances of unlocking rarer gear.

  It's worth noting that all unlockable PvP ranks for WoW Classic 20th Anniversary are only available after the launch of Phase 3, Blackwing Lair. If you've been stuck leveling because of this, you can now resume.

  There are 14 PvP ranks in the game, and each rank unlocks corresponding gear and title rewards, the latter of which are permanently applied to your WoW 20th character.

  How To Earn Honor Points?

  Besides engaging in direct PvP combat in permitted open areas, the game offers a variety of other ways to farm points, which we'll explain in detail.

  Honorable Kills (HKs)

  When participating in any PvP content, if you or someone in your party kills an enemy faction player within 11 levels of your own, you'll earn Honorable Kill points.

  However, it's important to note that the ultimate value of Honorable Kills you earn depends on a number of factors. Therefore, we offer the following tips to help you optimize the value of HKs you earn.

  Killing Higher-Level Players

  First, you only earn HKs by killing enemies within 11 levels of your own level. This means that if you're level 60 and kill a level 45 opponent, the kill won't count.

  Furthermore, you should aim to kill as many high-level players as possible. The higher the opponent's level, the more Honorable Kill points you'll earn - so you should also strive to raise your own level as much as possible.

  Of course, if you're not confident in killing players of your own level, you can stick to the middle ground, for example, focusing on killing players around level 50 or 49 at level 60.

  Avoid Frequent Kills

  Perhaps to ensure a more friendly PvP environment, WoW's 20th Anniversary implemented this mechanism. If you kill multiple players within a 24-hour period, Honor Points you earn will be reduced:

  • The second kill will have its value reduced to 75% of the value of HK points earned.
  • The third kill will have its value reduced to 50%.
  • The fourth kill will have its value reduced to 25%.
  • Killing another player five or more times will result in no Honor Points.

  Maintaining A Level Balance Among Team Members

  If you earn Honorable Kills with others in a group, all members will share the points earned from each kill. However, lower-level members will always receive less Honor than higher-level members.

  Therefore, to ensure efficient farming, it's best to form a group with members of similar levels to avoid potential conflicts within the group.

  Survive To The End

  To effectively earn Honorable Kills, you must not only kill the enemy but also survive. Furthermore, if the enemy is healed during combat, you will not receive additional points for killing it.

  

  Killing Racial Leader NPCs

  Although this is considered a PvE encounter, it's a valuable way to earn Honor Points. Every two hours, you can kill the six WoW Classic 20th Anniversary racial leaders to earn Honor Points. If you're playing in a group, the points will be split evenly.

  The six NPCs are:

  Alliance:

  • Highlord Bolvar Fordragon (Stormwind)
  • King Magni Bronzebeard (Ironforge)
  • Arch Druid Fandral Staghelm (Darnassus)

  Horde:

  • Thrall (Orgrimmar)
  • Cairne Bloodhoof (Thunder Bluff)
  • Lady Sylvanas Windrunner (Undercity)

  Completing Objectives In Battlegrounds

  Battlegrounds are PvP dungeon areas in the game. In addition to earning points by defeating other players, you can also complete special objectives, such as capturing the flag in Warsong Gulch or killing the lieutenant in Alterac Valley.

  If two teams battle on a battleground, in addition to Honor Points, the winning team will also receive three Marks of Honor, which can be redeemed for XP and more points. The losing team will also receive one Mark of Honor.

  To enter a battleground, you can use the portal at the battleground location or queue up at Battlemaster in your faction's capital.

  Once you earn enough points, your PvP level will increase, unlocking rewards.
