How to Farm Gloom Chitin in WoW War Within
The more points you put into Tanning, the better the quality of Chitin you’ll be able to farm. Add multiple points in the Concrete Chitin sub-specialization, and you’ll get more rank drops, refining poor quality material into higher quality.
You can spend knowledge points to advance the Tanning sub-specialization to get good drops. Tanning will gain access to the Sharpen Your Knife ability, which makes you get better quality drops. The ability, however, has a cooldown time of 1 hour.
The Pillar-Nest Vosh is a good location with several creatures that yield good drops. You will find the location to the north of Azj-Kahet. You can get an okay-level farm if you go all alone, so it is recommended to go with a mob of other players. Going in two groups of players each will yield better drops, and is a better idea to go in a group rather than solo, kill all the minion beasts and allow them to spawn again.
Use the toy Mothers’ Skinning knife to skin these opponents. Mother’s Skinning Knife allows you to skin multiple opponents located up to a distance of 40 yards away. This toy knife can be an efficient way to farm Gloom Chitin and other materials, as it lets you skin several opponents at once, as opposed to one at a time. This becomes a “cheat code” for you to farm material gear and other drops.
It is easier to take down these enemies once you have completed the main campaign with any character. You need to take down Level 78 enemies which include Spored Skitterer, Lashed and Stinger. These enemies drop Gloom Chitin alongside other materials.
