It wasn't too bad all things considered, but I don't think I would've done it if I could afford the pearls off the AH.Kommentar von AllakhazamAlthough pearls can drop from any of the mobs that drop Big-mouth Clams, the clams themselves are the main source of Pearls: Small Lustrous Pearl, Iridescent Pearl, Black Pearl, and Golden Pearl. Over the course of this insanity I got a 15 Iridescent, 13 Black and 10 Small Lustruous pearls as well a blue BoE Soulkeeper, 2 Traveler's Backpack and made around 160 raw gold from looting and vendoring. It took me around 9 hours time to get both. There were only a handful on the AH and they went for around 160g each - the money I didn't have - so I went grinding. I was looking for 2 Golden Pearls for my Spell Power weapon enchant. There is a vendor not too far - Jubie Gadgetspring - where you can unload the stuff you get if you commit to farming.Even herbalists and miners don't go there often, and everyon else has no business to be there. Kill everything on the U-shaped ridge and then go lap back around, the naga will have respawned by then. It has got plenty of naga to kill and there is virtually no downtime.It's the south-eastern ridge overlooking Duke Hydraxis. The location to farm: Ravencrest Monument in Azshara. This method can lead to frustrating chains of empty (of pearls) clams, but you also may get 2 in your first 2 clams. You are not guaranteed to get a Golden Pearl in 200 clams.
You will probably not get 4 Black Pearls in 100 clams.
The drop rate listed here is also misleading. It's like rolling a 200-sided die every time you open a clam and hoping from one specific number. The drop rate doesn't aggregate as you open the clams. This item has a frustratingly low drop rate that will seriously test your sanity. Commento di Vibriss DISCLAIMER: If you have the option to buy the pearls somewhere, strongly consider it before going to farm them.
