For aspiring dragonscale leatherworkers, in your 40s the best place to find these scales are Tanaris. Scorpid Hunters are plentiful and you'll the scorpid scales somewhat quickly there.

For higher level characters taking up DS Leatherworking later, you will find a better drop percentage from the scorpids in southern tanaris, or from the blasted lands.

That would have been good advice if the scorpids in the scorpion camp gave you Scorpid Scales when skinned but they don't. The scorpids in the camps are Cleft Scorpid https://www.wowhead.com/classic/npc=7078#z0Rzc

Although I couldn't find any big groups of scorpions together in Taneris. I did find that the chance of getting the scales went up loads from the ones near the southern coast. Unfortuntly those were also the higher level ones :(.

i grinded the beasts of tanaris for a few levels for exp and leather. your best bet is to farm thick leather (from hyenas/basilisks) and pick up the scorps along the way. there is no 100% efficient way but if you spend enough time grinding/farming youll get tons of scales. youll also get plenty of vendor trash so you can earn some cash in the process.

Комментарий от Thottbot

In about half a level of grinding I got the required scales for dragonscale leatherworking quest. (requires 40) plus a few bracers and I still have scales left over. SW of the goblin town in Tanaris there is a huge sand dune with massive piles of bones on it. Around the eastern slope of the dune are scorpid tail lashers (42-44). There is enough here that I can fight them non stop until my inventory fills.

Комментарий от Thottbot

There are scorpids inside the instance and I got scales from them.. of course I'm not sure what's the best way to get these, but it's a way to get them i didn't find in the list.

Комментарий от Thottbot

Also, they often drop these scorpid things, vendor trash, but a stack sells to the vendor for 88s, almost a 1g. And they drop these alot, so combine with farming the other beasts for thick leather, and this should be pretty easy.

Just farmed 30 pieces in forty minutes (maybe even less). Auctioneer tells me it should go for around 15g. So not bad IMO :)

I'm lvl 52, boosting my LW, so grinding these is pretty easy, but as rogue, the higher ones cast an annoying 40 sec poison, but they're also the ones with the best droprate! Heart of Noxxion FTW!

Комментарий от Thottbot

Me and another 60 shaman farmed these using the backdoor to uldaman and resetting the instance.

Enter the instance, run past the golem, and keep to the path that runs north. You'll hit the lvl 43-44 scorpids relatively quickly. Nuke 'em.

1 min later...about 20-25 scorpids to skin. Rinse, repeat.

I'm sure this could work with anyone 50+...

Комментарий от Thottbot

Is the full set of armor worth the 80 scales you need to make it?

Комментарий от Thottbot

I farmed tanaris Scorpions for about 2-3 hours and i got 42 scales(with skinning, no drops). got dragonscale leatherworker and sold the rest on AH. got 15g for 11 scales :) thats on terenas server though

Комментарий от Thottbot

well im only level 40 trying to get them for a freind to make me tough scorpid are there any other 40-45 scorpians in a different area grouped?

Комментарий от Thottbot

I've had the same problem farming these things, but there's a fairly easy way to guarantee a spawn.Do the chicken escort quest.

About a third of the way through the walk, it spawns three scorpids. Just let the chicken eat it, kill and skin the scorpids, go back and run the chicken over again. It's a little time consuming, but

a) you're guaranteed to see scorpids without roaming all over

b) you'll get thick leather from the mobs you kill along the way and

c) the chicken will help you kill stuff.

Комментарий от Thottbot

Southern Tanaris is the best for scorpid scales you just have to kill
Scorpid Dunestalker
I farmed about 2 stacks in less than an hour (skinning) no joke! And the scorpids are in little patches of 2-3.

I just farmed these right around the gadget area and got all the ones i needed for my dragonscale quest. I still farm for them there because they're pretty easy to kill and they're almost everywhere. On most days the drop rates is pretty good. I get it about 2 out of 3. But the whole scorpid set takes a long time to get. You'll be 45 before you finish the set. Then you will just upgrade to the heavier stuff. It's a constant gathering skill. But I enjoy it. Happy hunting!

Комментарий от Thottbot

Many people are saying Badlands, many Tanaris. Personally, I'd say Tanaris. Around Gadgetzan, there are Scorpid Hunters. I killed these guys for about half an hour, and came up with over 30 scales, being about a scale a minute (From skinning only.) I might just be lucky, but kill hunters, you can skin them more often than Tail Lashers. Plus, they're only about 40-41.

Комментарий от Thottbot

Scorpid Dunestalker drops them 1 to 2 at a time each kill! You can find them south Eastmoon Ruins, and around Southmoon Ruins

Комментарий от Thottbot

It took me a little under an hour to get all the scales needed for the Dscale LW quest.(40) In the process of gathering scales, I got about a stack of Heavy Leather, and a stack of Thick Leather..I also made around 4.5g from selling all the vendor trash.. I'm a 56 shaman, so obviously if you keep up with your professions, unlike me you'll be a bit lower and it'll take a bit longer.

Hope this helps! :)

Комментарий от Thottbot

Yeah, they're levels 50 and 51 in northern Blasted Lands... but I've had a 100% drop rate with them so far. In my time in Tanaris, I only got maybe 3 out of a lot of scorpids (usually around level 47), but in Blasted Lands I've gotten 14 out of 14 scorpids. This combined with the grinding quest there leaves no doubt that the Blasted Lands is the best way to grind for Scorpid Scales.

Комментарий от Thottbot

Blasted lands is pretty good

Комментарий от Thottbot

I was in Tanaris and i picked up 16 Scorpid Scales in 30 minutes with a Skinning Skill of 300 at level 45. I found that Scorpid Dunestalkers usually had a higher drop rate than the regular ones. Most of them were 1 but i got two different stacks of two Scorpid Scales from Scorpid Dunestalkers. Hope that helped! X]

Комментарий от Thottbot

dunestalkers in the abyssal sands, that's where it's at. In the last 10 minutes i've gotten 24 scales. they've dropped 12/13 kills and all have dropped Scorpid Scale x2. Lvl 44 hunter made it very easy

Комментарий от Thottbot

i found many of them at 36.64 in Tanaris... got about 20 from them all :D

Комментарий от Thottbot

Spent about 2 hours just riding around on my epic mount looking for any scorpid and 1 hit killing each (70 hunter). Tanaris=easy imo, and if you focus on it, you will find it rather easy. ;) happy hunting.

do rats really drop these or is allakhazam on crack?

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Best way to get them (level 50+) is to go and kill dunestalkers in tanaris southern parts, they mosttly drop 2 at time and pretty often. had to get 40 myself :(

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Scorpid Dunestalkers are a better way to farm the scales. Much higher drop rate than scorpid hunters, sometimes you'll even get 2 scales instead of one. These are common near the Dunemaul Compound in Tanaris.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

it really sucks gettin all the scales for dragonlw i need 38 effin scales for it. and since staghelm is a new server i can only get them in small quantities. they are kinda hard to find and it sucks farmin but u can defanetly get a lot of gold off of leatherworkers.for scorpid armor and also the dragon lw quest

Комментарий от Allakhazam

U want scorpid scales well I know how! If you want the scales u have to be a true dedicated leatherworker. That means u need to be a skinner... not some other proffesion. You just kill the scorpids and skin them. But be careful you have to go out to find scorpids and u could be attacked by more then 1 creature. Questions? ask me

Комментарий от Allakhazam

I wish Allakhazam would fix this. Near as I can figure it seems people use "free" wow servers that have been altered in some way and rats drop anything and everything. People using the wowreader on these servers give false information to the site

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Just done a farm run at Tanaris & be carefull as the hyenas and rocs and basilisks tend to aggro on mass !

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Noone sells these in the AH on my realm.
=( i check about 2-3 times a day. Guess i have to farm.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

These go for quite a lot of money on my server, they are used for the leatherwork specialisation for dragon leather. At least 40 of theese are need to complete the dragon quest.

So sell theese at your local AH - cheap =)

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Scorpid scales are in high demand at the AH, never any for sale though.

These are used for Dragonscale Leather working (I'm sure other stuff too) and by that time the Hunter/Shaman may give up some gold to just purchase it and get it over with.

Farm these and make some good gold selling them.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Best drop is Dunestalkers in Tanaris (46-49)

Комментарий от Allakhazam

These are not junk, they are actually used for leatherworking.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

not sure if they've improved drop rates since some of the previous posts were made here, but basically all i do to collect my scales is this.
in tanaris, starting from Gadgetzan, i usually head south making a straight path towards the northern most of the two ruins (with Dunemaul Ogres present). along the way there will be quite a variety of mobs to kill/skin, scorpids included. also, the stretch between the two ruins, and the actual Compound (with the cave)is a pretty good spawning ground for the higher level scorpids.

in all honesty i've seen either type drop 1-2 scales per skin, as well as a chance for thick and heavy leather (obviously not all in one skinning).
neither type is going to give you scales every time, but i found the rate isn't that bad. what makes this a pain in the ass - if at all - is just tracking down and killing the little buggers, as they are quite spread out and don't really travel in packs or have any one spot where they mass-spawn.

all in all, at 48 (rogue) one broad circular sweep following the path i talked about above and i usually bring in about 15-25 scales on average.

**note**
scorpids in blasted lands have quite a nice drop rate, only you won't find that many and they are swarmed with mobs and unless you're 50+ it's gonna be a slight pain with all the aggro's and add's coming out to play! :)

I found a good many Scorpid Hunters NE of Gadget in the hills. There are a few other types of creatures mixed in, but primarily Scorpid Hunters. My current Coordinates are 56, 26 as I stand in the middle of a few of them.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

I've been killing the scorpid hunters to get my 40 scales. And while this is pure speculation, it seems like the hyenas and basilisks in the area can be PH's for them. If you go along an area and kill everything, it seems you'll find more scorpids your 2nd time through. I tried to focus on the scorpids and hyenas, since the hyenas drop red wolf meat, tender wolf meat, and mystery meat. Good stuff for cooking. I'm still a little low for the dunestalkers, but I found the hunters a pretty good route to go if your willing to put some time into it.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Go Tanaris! Besides getting Turtles, you can also get the scorpid scales. though the dunestalkers tend to drop more scales, they are fewer and harder to come by. with the respawn rate close to Gadgetzan, it's possible to collect many scales in a short period of time. You will get aggroed on by hyenas and rocs and basilisks. the Giant eggs are part of the artisan cooking qst, hold onto them, people will need them. the skins from the others provide you with excellent mats for making scorpid mail. This is a great present to hunters and if you can advertise a complete set at once, it's golden!

Комментарий от LetoA52

For those playing Classic, Tanaris is your best bet. The scorpids in Uld seem to have a pretty low drop rate, and the ones in the Blasted Lands are not numerous enough and are heavily farmed.

At least according to Wowhead, all three Tanaris scorpid species (scorpid hunters , scorpid tail lashers , and scorpid dunestalkers ) have the same skinning droprate for these scales. In my anecdotal experience, tail lashers have a lower rate but that might just be bad RNG on my part. That said, the advantage to the dunestalkers is about half the time they drop them, they drop 2 of them.

The Wowhead map for dunestalkers is way off. They are populated across the entire southern third of Tanaris. A good, relatively low-stress area to farm them is just north of the Dunemaul Compound as well as west of the Compound between Thistleshrub Valley to the south and the Noxious Lair to the north.

In Tanaris :
Плетохвостый скорпид appears to share respwans with Хромоногая гиена and Стеклошкурый взорень.
Скорпид-охотник appears to share respwans with Голодный хромоног and Стеклошкурый василиск.
In general, Scorpids, Blisterpaws and Basilisks appear to share respawns.
