Black Tabby Cat “farming”

Pets on World Of Warcraft are more useful than just a cute accessory for your character, they can also be a good source of gold if you play your cards right.

Take the White Kitten for example, you can buy White Kittens from Lil Timmy who wanders around Stormwind, for 60s each. These are limited supply items so they are quite difficult to obtain. Its worth it though, as you can sell the kittens for 100g to 250g on the alliance auction house, and up to 500g if you do cross-faction trading and sell it on the horde side.

Another huge gold-maker is the Black Tabby. You can get Black Tabbys as a drop from the Dalaran Spellscribes in Silverpine Forest. These are level 21 mages which spawn every 4 hours.

It doesn’t take very long to get Black Tabby drops because the drop rates for this item is quite high. You just need a bit of patience due to the 4 hour spawn interval. A good way to effectively farm these things is to at least have a level 20 character in order to kill this mob easily.

The Dalaran Spellscribe will appear at one of 3 spawn points within Amber Mill in Silverpine. The first spot is the second shack to the left when youre standing in the entrance to the compound. The second spawn point is the largest room of the main building that should be right in front of you. The third one is in the building furthest to your right.

Sitting there all day is not necessary. All you have to do is position your character and log in every couple of hours to check if the Dalaran Spellscribe has re-spawned. You can type “/target dalaran” or use a macro to see if he has indeed re-spawned, if he has then just kill him and get your loot.

If you keep doing this, youll be able to get 3 or more a week. And like I said earlier, these are very rare items. You will be able to get at least 500g to 600g if you just sell it on the horde side auction house. The real money, however, is in cross-faction trading. If you can sell these Black Tabbys in the neutral auction house or even on the alliance auction house, you will probably be able to make around 1500g to 2500g for each Black Tabby.

So that’s a really good gold-maker right there, the Black Tabby. You just need a bit of patience, and be constant in checking re-spawn spots.
