This morning, I went farming herbs in Burning Steppes. Why Burning Steppes, do you wonder? I mean, the place looks as barren as the surface of the moon, and besides ogres and orcs, there’s not really much there.

There are several why I selected Burning Steppes for my Herbalism. The first and most important one was the achievement.

I know, I know, I don’t really care about the achievements but come on… Burning Steppes and Herbalism? Sometimes I think that I would have had more success looking for ore on the surface of a lake!

No seriously, it was not that bad. Burning Steppes is not a very large zone, at least compared to the new Outlands and Northrend ones. I did a circuit in about 20 minutes, gathering herbs along the way, and stopping for a few Blackrock mobs that dared interrupt me.

Here is what I gathered in 20 minutes of farming herbs in Burning Steppes:

• 10 Dreamfoil
• 7 Golden Sansam
• 5 Mountain Silversage
• 1 Black Lotus

“Renei, this is a miserable haul! Why the hell did you say we should grind for herbs in Burning Steppes?”

Yeah, well it is, and no, I did not say you should go there for herbaslism. But Burning Steppes has so many great attractions! There’s all those Blackrock Orcs that can be brutally murdured for their Runecloth – I got 10 Runecloths this morning, article about that coming right up! – and there’s Blackrock Depths (I think), an Instance that a high level character may try soloing.

Here is a map of Herbs in Burning Steppes:

As you can see, the Herbalism nodes in Burning Steppes are few and far between, but I get the feeling that that area is extremely under explored, because in the short time that I was there, I did gather herb nodes that were not yet inventoried in my Gatherer Add-On – this is very rare.

I figure I will return to this area shortly, for the Runecloth article and maybe something about soloing an Instance…

Until then, happy questing and farming!
