With the Dark Portal officially opened on February 5th in TBC Anniversary, Phase 1 raids are live, igniting explosive demand for Alchemy raid potions. Herbalism reigns supreme: epic flying zips you across Outland's herb-rich skies, every node dropping premium mats plus 15% bonus motes for easy Primal profits. But in this volatile fresh economy, which routes maximize your Phase 1 gold per hour?

Accessing 300-375 Herbalism starts with visiting the trainers in Hellfire Peninsula. Train immediately upon entering Outland to avoid "skill cap" failures on high-level nodes.
Faction | Trainer | Location | Coordinates |
|---|---|---|---|
Alliance | Rorelien | Honor Hold, Hellfire Peninsula | /way 53.6 65.8 |
Horde | Ruak Stronghorn | Thrallmar, Hellfire Peninsula | /way 52.2 36.3 |
Skipping the visit risks yield loss. Game logic ties pick success to trained mastery; ensure you have at least 300 skill before crossing the Dark Portal.
Outland introduces several new herbs, each yielding essential materials and rare Motes of Life or Mana.
Herb | Min Skill | Prime Zones | Bonus Drops (Approx %) |
|---|---|---|---|
Felweed | 300 | All Outland | Mote of Life (15%), Fel Lotus (3%) |
Dreaming Glory | 315 | Terokkar, Nagrand | Mote of Life (15%), Fel Lotus (3%) |
Ragveil | 325 | Zangarmarsh | Mote of Life (15%), Fel Lotus (3%) |
Terocone | 325 | Terokkar Forest | Mote of Life (15%), Fel Lotus (3%) |
Ancient Lichen | 340 | Underbog/Sethekk Halls | Mote of Life (15%), Fel Lotus (5%) |
Netherbloom | 350 | Netherstorm | Mote of Mana (15%), Fel Lotus (3%) |
Nightmare Vine | 365 | Shadowmoon Valley | Mote of Life (15%), Nightmare Seed (10%), Fel Lotus (3%) |
Mana Thistle | 375 | Terokkar (above Shattrath), Netherstorm (Socrethar's Seat) | Mote of Life (15%), Fel Lotus (3%) |
Flame Caps (rare drop from Ragveil) boost Fire power by 80 for 1 minute—essential for Fire Mages and Destro Warlocks during raid parses. In Phase 1, skipping the visit risks yield loss on high-level nodes. Game logic ties pick success to trained mastery; ensure 300 skill before crossing the Dark Portal.
Terokkar Forest (Terocone Heaven): Loop the wooded areas around Shattrath and the Skwing Mountains. Terocone is a high-value herb for Agility and Healing potions.
Zangarmarsh (Ragveil & Felweed): Run a perimeter lap around the marsh. This zone is excellent for leveling from 300-330 due to high node density.
Netherstorm (Mana Thistle & Netherbloom): Focus on the Eco-Domes. These areas are protected from the void, making them lush with high-level herbs.
Zone | Target Herbs | Est. G/Hour | Competition |
|---|---|---|---|
Terokkar | Terocone, Glory | 250-400g | Medium-High |
Netherstorm | Netherbloom, Thistle | 200-350g | Low-Medium |
Zangarmarsh | Ragveil, Felweed | 180-300g | Medium |
Druids: The undisputed kings of Herbalism. They can pick herbs in Flight Form, ignoring mob aggro and saving seconds on every node.
Alchemy: Don't just sell raw herbs. Converting them into Super Mana Potions or Flasks can often double your profit margins.
Enchants: Apply +5 Herbalism to your gloves to gather higher-level herbs like Ancient Lichen earlier.
Auction your Motes and Primals on raid nights (Tuesday/Thursday). Prices typically peak by 20-50% during these windows.
Visit Rorelien (Alliance, Honor Hold /way 53.6 65.8) or Ruak Stronghorn (Horde, Thrallmar /way 37.4 71.8). There are no prerequisites beyond having a 300 skill level. Train early as Anniversary servers feature accelerated progression.
Circle the tree bases south and east of Shattrath, specifically avoiding the Arakkoa settlements if you want to stay mounted. An epic flyer combined with a Riding Crop allows you to hit 150+ nodes per hour.
Mana Thistle requires a 375 skill to pick. It is most densely found in the Netherstorm Eco-Domes, on the ridges of Nagrand, and around the outskirts of Shattrath.
You have approximately a 15% chance to receive a Mote of Life from Felweed, Dreaming Glory, Ragveil, and Terocone. Netherbloom is the exception, providing a 15% chance for a Mote of Mana instead.
An epic flying mount increases your loops by 10-20%. Druids excel here as they do not need to shift out of Flight Form to gather, making them the most efficient herbalists in the game.
Use the Enchant Gloves - Advanced Herbalism for a +5 boost. You can also carry a Herbalist's Spade (+5 skill). Combined, these allow you to hit the 375 cap or pick 340+ Lichens while still leveling.
Equip yourself with these routes and strategies to dominate the Outland herb market. For those looking to skip the grind and get straight into raiding, visit MMOJUGG.com for the best prices on WoW TBC Classic Anniversary Gold and professional boosts.
