Best Runecloth Routes
Silithus — Twilight cultists. Twilight's Hammer camps drop Runecloth + Encrypted Texts (rep and quests). Great density, with elemental reagents on the side.
Eastern Plaguelands — Scarlet Enclave. Scarlet Crusade humanoids near the Fungal Vale: Runecloth, silk and green items for disenchanting.
Dire Maul (West) — ogres and elves. Instance farm: dense packs for AOE, Runecloth + enchanting mats from greens.
Farming Southsea pirates in Tanaris nets Mageweave, Runecloth, potions and Gadgetzan reputation all at once — triple value per lap.
Felcloth
Felcloth drops only from satyrs: Jadefire in Felwood and satyrs in Azshara. It fuels top-tier tailoring (Felcloth bags, resistance sets). Demand is high but drops are rare — farm the densest satyr spots.
Class Tips
- Mage: pull humanoids into a pack and burn AOE — the best cloth-per-hour rate.
- Hunter: solo elite camps, pet holds aggro.
- Druid/Rogue: stealth lets you pick only the packs you need and save time.
Cloth pairs perfectly with leveling Tailoring — farm a surplus and level the profession along the way.
