My Paladin Wesha is now an exalted level 77, and has of course been puttering around Northrend for a while now. I have discovered than one of the most regular sources of income I can find is to farm and Auction off the Frost Lotus drops I get.

Just to recap, Frost Lotus is currently the highest level herb in World of Warcraft, and according to some, is likely to remain so for quite a while yet. Frost Lotus is used in a variety of very high-level Alchemy recipes, mostly for Flasks and Stones. Here is what the Frost Lotus can be used in:

• Emerald Bag (32-slot Herb Bag, gotta get me some of that!)
• Flask of the North
• Indestructible Alchemist Stone
• Mercurial Alchemist Stone
• Mighty Alchemist Stone
• Flask of Endless Rage
• Flask of Pure Mojo
• Flask of Stoneblood
• Flask of the Frost Wyrm

Now bear in mind those are all really high level, so the people needing Frost Lotus to level their skill are likely to be flush with cash. Don’t be shy when pricing your items.

On the Gnomeregan server, Horde-side (where I currently play), a single Frost Lotus can be sold for 50-60 WoW Gold. This is a reliable price, not a pie-in-the-sky wishful thinking price. This can make farming for Frost Lotus a very profitable venture indeed.

But where can Frost Lotus be found?

Frost Lotus can be farmed in any Northrend zone that has herb spawn nodes, meaning everywhere except Crystalsong Forest, that dead and depressing dump. Frost Lotus has about a 5-6% chance to drop on any herb node, usually in singles but occasionallyin doubles and even triples.

Frost Lotus can also be farmed in Wintergrasp, where it has spawn nodes of its own. Since I am also an Alchemist and do not farm purely for profit, I enjoy being able t0 gather other herbs along with my Frost Lotus, so I stick with the regular zones.

Once you get past Alchemy level 400 or so, you will find that Frost Lotus becomes more and more prevalent in all the recipes you could be making to level your skill. Since I enjoy having Gold as well as leveling my skill, I sell 50% of the Frost Lotus I farm, which makes for a very stable income and still lets me level my skill at a decent pace.

Farming Frost Lotus, either for leveling Alchemy, or simply to make wow gold, is relatively quick and easy. Make sure to farm with your highest level character in the zone with the most herb nodes. I recommend Scholazar Basin if you also need Tiger Lily, Adder’s Tongue and Goldclover.
