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 Thick 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 Thick Leather. I traveled around Azeroth, and after a while I realized that there is one very best spot
Thick Leather farming place:
This is at Un'Goro Crater, farming Raptors. Just east of Marshal's Stand there is an abundance of level 48-50 raptors with a quick respawn rate. I found the drop rate to be almost 100% in level 48 mobs, a little less in level 50's. Don't bother with anything above 50 if you're looking to farm just Thick Leather. While farming you also get a lot of sellable grays and whites, also greens for disenchant, which also brings you some amount of gold. Well to be honest, you can kill any mob and skin them around the Un'Goro, but those Raptros are the best for Thick Leather farming.
This is my favorite places for Thick 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, Thick 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).
