How to Find Special Items in the World of Warcraft

In World of Warcraft, there are incredibly useful specific items that are hidden in different locations in this game. These said items could be sold at the Auction House or to vendors, and are definitely a great way to make more money. Here’s a quick guide on how to find special items in the World of Warcraft.

Black Lotus – This could be located in Winterspring. It's close to the cave of the blue dragon. While this is the best spot, you might also want to find it in the Badlands or the Eastern Plaguelands.

By mining the Dark Nodes in the Searing Mountains, you could earn this for yourself. Blood of the Mountain - If you are near mastering your profession, it is necessary for quests later on in the game. It is one of the best-selling items at the auction house.

Dark Runes – If you would opt for only a single item, this would be the best buy. There is a high demand for this item as it is a much needed item. They are acquired by killing mobs in Scholo.

Essence of Water – You can get these items in the Felwoods, and the mobs here have a very high drop rate which makes it very lucrative to go after them.

Larval Acid – One of these can easily get you 10 gold pieces so having some may be handy in the trade. Larval Acid is found in the Eastern Plaguelands by grinding slugs. The drop rate is actually pretty high, so this is a great way to get gold fast.

Stonescale Eels – For best results, Stonescale Eels are better to catch during late at night. Look for these on the coasts of Kalimdor. They are equivalent for around 1 gold piece for each one you find.

After knowing how to find special items in the World of Warcraft, you've got to learn how to sell them. Here are som Auction House tips:

Since you’re going to need to sell these items in the auction house for best results, it’s important to have a good strategy to make the most money. If you're not yet very keen on what's going on at the auction house, you might just want to sit back and learn for a few days. It will help you familiarize the idea of pricing and demand and how the auction works in general.

I suggest that you don’t price your items too high or too low. The auction system will provide you with a standard price that you will be basing the prices of your items on. It’s a good idea to schedule your auctions for times when player activity is higher, such as early evening. Early in the evening is a good time as opposed to late at night 'cause a lot of other players are online at that time.

A word of advise: don’t flood the auction house with many very similar items. It is not a good strategy to dump all of your items at the auctions house, no matter how tempting it may be. You may choose one of each of your more popular items, or maybe three or four of the more common items. If you don't saturate the market with what you have, you’ll get a better hand of receiving better prices.

As much as possible, resist the urge to run other players out of the auction by unfairly undercutting their prices. Play the game clean and keep your prices fair to do well at the auction house. This malpractice is a no-no and would only bring you enemies. To assure of a better chance of being successful at the auction house, come up with fair prices.

That's just the gist of knowing how to find special items in the World of Warcraft but I hope you learned a lot of practical information from this article and that you get to apply it in your game. Good luck!
