Elwynn Forest is an alliance zone, meant for players level 1-20 and founded in Classic World of Warcraft. It’s the home of the city of Stormwind, and all around starting zone for the disgusting race called humans. Just kidding, of course. We’re not that bad.

Everything you find below is up to date for patch 9.0.

Chests

Treasure Route in Elwynn Forest

Below are the types of treasure chests that I’ve found in Elwynn Forest. You won’t be able to find a chest in every single location they appear in, and they are on a timer if someone happens to take the specific chests in the zone before you.

Herbalism

Herbalism Route in Elwynn Forest

Like in Mining, you’ll get competition from either higher levels or lower levels, depending on who’s looking for what. You go over an alliance patrol, so horde be careful. Aside from that, you net a decent amount of all the starting herbs, which is a plus.

Timed: 30:00
Class: Druid

  • Earthroot – 47
  • Peacebloom – 113
  • Silverleaf – 165

Fishing

I didn’t create a route for this zone to do any kinds of fishing in pools, therefore I focused on one specific location to fish in.

Timed: 15:00
Coords: 46.1,64.7

  • 10 Pound Mud Snapper
  • Raw Brilliant Smallfish – 37
  • Raw Longjaw Mud Snapper – 19

Mining

Mining Route in Elwynn Forest

There’s going to be competition in this zone, even if your competition doesn’t deal with higher level players. This is a starting zone for Humans, and a weird fetish place for…weirdos, so even low levels will be gathering ore. This route goes over an alliance patrol, so horde be careful.

Timed: 30:00
Class: Druid

  • Copper Ore – 278
  • Rough Stone – 247
  • Malachite – 1
  • Tigerseye – 3
  • Shadowgem – 1

Skinning

Obviously you’re going to have more luck with skinning at either one of the farms, but if the people who are questing in those areas become too much of a hassle with your grind, you can also fly to the small dens that the wolves linger around, and pick off the wolves wandering between the den locations. Their respawn isn’t as fast, so you’ll have to keep killing any you see along the path.

Timed: Not timed, only a full route of skinning everything in my path.

  • Light Leather – 61
  • Ruined Leather Scraps – 142

Below are the different areas that I farmed within a certain amount of time and the kinds of skinning materials I acquired.

Here’s the map of the skinning locations.

Timed: 10:00
Class: Druid

  • Stonefield Farm:
    • 80 Ruined Leather Scraps
    • 59 Light Leather
    • 2 Medium Leather

Reagents

I don’t list the amounts of different reagents you can acquire from specific areas here in a certain amount of time–instead, I’m just going to list the specific reagents you can gather easily in this zone, if you look in the right places.

If you’re interested in the timed places and the reagents acquired, you can find them in my In-Depth Farming Guide for World of Warcraft.
