Azshara Pearl Farming Gold Tips

These days, gold farming tips tend to be centered on the Auction House and on farming items like Relics and Elementals in Storm Peaks. However, more and more people are turning to the forgotten realms of the Old World where necessary crafting goods are wallowing in obscurity. One such location is in Azshara where you’ll find the Temple of Arkkoran – located in the northeast corner off the coast of the Bitter Reaches.

This temple, loaded with Murlocs and Pincers, has one of the highest combined drop rates in the game for Big Mouth Clams. These particular clams are so popular because they can drop Golden Pearls, Black Pearls, Iridescent Pearls, and Zesty Clam Meat – all highly valuable. Golden pearls will draw between 60-70 gold on many servers while Black Pearls draw 15 gold and iridescent pearls draw 5 gold.

The zone itself was never part of any levelling paths back in the day and has minimal lore interest (until Cataclysm hits), so it is very empty as of right now, making it a prime farming location.

Your Farming Path

The farming path itself involves clearing out the temple, then going down to the beach and running it clear for 6-7 minutes while the temple respawns. It takes that long for the respawn and the kill times are very quick since the mobs are all around level 50.

On average, a completed farming path through the temple and around the beach outside will net you between 65 and 100 gold in a space of 10 minutes at Level 80. A single stack of clams will yield on average 1 golden pearl and 3-4 black pearls, and the rest of your junk will add up quickly for nice returns.

In short, this is one of the best and most underrated farming locations in the game with minimal worry about dying and easy prey all the way around, allowing you to make as much as 600 gold per hour on average.
