↖ Location: Whelgar's Excavation Site in the Wetlands

• Mob Levels: 26-27, occasionally 28.
• Key Advantage: This site is teeming with raptors, providing a continuous supply of mobs to skin.

↖ Farming Strategy

• Efficient Skinning: You'll be skinning for Light Leather, Medium Leather, and Heavy Leather. The drop rate is generous, often yielding multiple pieces per skin.
• Capitalizing on Others' Kills: Many players in the area aren't skinners, leaving free skins available. This can significantly boost your gold per hour.
• Crafting for Profit: Transform your leather into Embossed Leather Vests or Dark Leather Cloaks. These items are in high demand for reputation shipments, making them more valuable than raw materials.

↖ Potential for profit

• Gold Per Hour: Roughly 17-20 gold just from skinning, which can increase if you craft the skins into high-demand items.
• Crafting Profits: Crafting yields substantial profits. For example, Dark Leather Cloaks sell for 40 silver each on the Auction House.

↖ Tips for Maximizing Efficiency

• Space: Make sure you have enough bag space or larger bags, as they can rapidly fill up.
• Time management for crafting: Crafting while AFK or making food is an effective way to utilize downtime.
• Class Consideration: Hunters excel in this farm, but a level 25 Mage could potentially earn even more due to their AoE capabilities.

↖ Conclusion

In WoW Classic SoD, you can earn substantial gold at Whelgar's Excavation Site during the Season of Discovery, whether you're leveling, questing, or simply looking to increase your gold reserves.
