In World of Warcraft Skinning can be very profitable profession, especially if you know what sells well in auction house. I have a skinner hunter and I found out that Knothide Leather farming is a gold mine. The price is very high, so I decided to search for places with high density of mobs which I can skin them and drop me Knothide Leather. I traveled around Azeroth, and after a while I made a list of places.
Knothide Leather farming places:
I found one particular place for Knothide Leather farming. This is at 26,52 in Nagrand - right near the northeast tip of the tiny lake that is southeast of Forge Camp: Fear. Kill Bach'lor and his herd of followers. Bach'lor usually drops 1-3 Knothide Leather, and his followers will drop leather and scraps. Usually end up with about 8-10 leathers and a few scraps every 3 - 4 minutes. This turns into a lot of leather pretty quickly. Just be sure to kill all of his followers , otherwise he will respawn wherever the survivors happen to be at the moment.
Another place is at Razorthorn Shelf in Hellfire Peninsula. I got one stack in leather in 6 minutes, so it is a great place.
These are my favorite places for Knothide Leather farming. I recommend you to go with your highest level skinner (80-85), so you don't waste time killing the mobs. And there is one more thing to say: before you go anywhere clear your bags first. That's because for skinning the animals, you need to loot them first. This means you will gather a lot of junk stuff filling your bags. Once I forgot it and it was quite frustrating, don't repeat the same mistake I did.
Anyway, Knothide Leather farming may be one of the ways to earn gold in World of Warcraft. But after I got a copy of Gold Secrets, I found out all the other MUCH more profitable ways to get tons of gold easily. You just need to know the tricks. I warmly recommend it to you.
I'm a regular WoW player, constantly searching the ways how to make a lot of gold in small amount of time. But thanks to Gold Secrets I even reached so called gold cap (1 million gold).
