Skinning Quillfang Ravagers in Hellfire

Crystal Infused Leather, aside from sounding very cool, is used in most high level Leatherworking recipes. However, it's kind of a specialty item in terms of where it comes from. It sells anywhere from 10-15g per stack on my server, so it's worth it to grind for it. It's not very hard, either!

Head to Hellfire Peninsula, and grind on Quillfang Ravagers. Kill, skin, rinse, repeat! Hold onto the Fel Scales they may drop, and keep your fingers crossed for greens! This is a somewhat out of the way spot (check the map for location), so don't worry about too much competition!

This isn't fancy: skinning is a straightforward deal! File this info away into your list of good gold grinding spots, or for when you roll a Leatherworker. ;)

Skinning for Gold in Winterspring

Any area that has an excess of animal mobs is a great place to skin. Lately, Nagrand in Outlands has been getting a lot of attention, and rightly so, as it is simply amazing for high-level skinners.

But what if you aren't a high-level skinner? Where can you go to raise your skill quickly, and earn some decent gold at the same time? Try Winterspring! Shardtooth Bears (and Elder Shardtooths more specifically) can be skinned here for Rugged Leather and Warbear Leather. Remember what I mentioned in a previous post: lower level craft items sell even more well than higher ones, because there are simply more lower-level crafters. Head to Winterspring with some nearly empty bags, fill up, and go hit that auction house. Remember, if you're a Leatherworker too, you can turn that leather into other items that may sell even higher than the leather alone. Know your market, and do some research before unloading it all. And remember, let people KNOW it's for sale in the /trade channel!

Skinning For Big Gold

If you're a skinner, Nagrand is probably the closest to heaven you'll find, even though it probably smells pretty awful. Nagrand is FULL of skinnable mobs, and many aren't even hostile until you attack them!

You'll want to get the quests At Nessingwary's Expidition at the entrance to the zone, because you'll kill enough mobs while skinning to complete them easily.

Once you get the quests, go do them, and skin every mob you kill. Because there are simply so MANY mobs, there's very little downtime spent trying to find them. Kill, skin, repeat. You can make anywhere from 70 to 85 gold an hour here, with the grays they drop, leather to sell, and occasional green items.
