This is the one for the quest Растениеводство V: рынок Полугорья that you get that's teaching you how the Tillers rep and how your farm both work.

To get a good map of where you can 'farm' for improving your friendliness with NPCs, what you really want is this link: Темная земля. (Not sure why some other areas on Wowhead link here instead of there...)

Just keep in mind that although you can loot this one for your quest at level 86, you have to be level 90 to loot any of the others.

Most are located in the Heartland, although you can find them throughout Pandaria, typically in level 90 zones or areas where level 90 dailies take place (even if the dailies aren't there that day, or you don't have that rep unlocked).

And, once you get Друзья с фермы, these become unlootable again. This prevents you from accidentally looting them once you no longer need them.

Also found on Windward Isle in The Jade Forest in the grassy area with the tigers and dragons.

Apparently Dark Soil IS NOT a Valley of the Four Winds only spawn item. I just found one beside a tent at the Ruins of Guo-Lai, coords 21.0, 31.7. So im guessing that it has a chance to spawn in any of the Rep Grind daily Areas that you recieve at lvl 90, but thats just my guess.

1. These things are apparently capable of spawning all over the Pandarian continent, even though Wowhead hasn't registered that at this time.

2. They may have some sort of "swarming" spawn behavior. One morning I was finding bunches in the Heartland. Normally, you can find one or two if you're lucky. I see other comments much the same; one person says there's a bunch near X, another person can't find any there.

If you find a place they're spawning hot and heavy, perhaps throw out a kind word on General channel and let your fellow farmers... well, farm with you. :)

As a human in a level 25 guild, you get about 1000 rep per turn in of the items within the dirt piles. I found 25 Dark Soil's withing 25-45 seconds of each other in the Heartlands. Very easy to spot (unless they're on the paths), and very easy to farm. Great way of getting rep on top of the dailies.

Just found Dark Soil in Vale of Eternal Blossoms in the Ruins of Guo-Lai area. Contained Blue Feather.
Looks like it is no more valley of the four winds spawn after last reset.

Комментарий от Grishord

After the downtime on 10/2/12 there was a MASSIVE nerf to these, used to be able to find them 1 every minute tops (this is on a Full pop server with 10 other people farming them). Now they're 1 every 20 minutes or so and they spawn everywhere, not just in the farm area.

Комментарий от jahathehunter

Found one just now in Townlong Steppes (Shan'ze Dao) - was hidden in the ruinsy bit.

Helpful Tip:

To locate these patches quicker and easier, go into your system settings, and toggle your graphics down to low (or toggle your ground clutter and environment detail to low). This will reduce the loading of foliage, plants, and other things that may hinder view of said containers.

Happy hunting!

If you had all bothered to listen to the Npc - you would have read that the dark soil can appear ANYWHERE in Pandaria :0)

It is NOT restricted to "farmville country".

Now it may not be registered on wowhed yet, but I'm sure someone is compiling data so that we will get maps of possible spawn sites soon.

At this point "farmville country" is the main focus for players to pick up dark soil, however the more people that are searching in the same zone - the less likely you are to find said puddle of mud. You may be better off searching in other zones that have not yet been flagged for multiple spawn sites of dark soil.

Edit: Also note that you will be able to pick up the reward of the dark soil when you harvest your crops. And at least the Lily reward can be harvested when you farm herbs. Which makes me think that you can also receive this when you mine? (but this is not confirmed).

I found a patch of Dark Soil in the Vale of Eternal Blossoms, the coord's are 36/79 and it gave me a Blue Feather.

Комментарий от Gzand02

I wonder if the Blue feather is ment to be a refrence to the harvest moon games.

Finding patches of Dark Soil is a crucial part of becoming best friends with tillers very fast. Unfortunately, it is tough to find one, until you know exactly what they look like. They are a decently sized, perfectly rounded mound of dirt. Although dark, they do not look like a "moist soil" dark, but rather just plain dry soil slightly darker than most other soil.

1. It can be found ANYWHERE in Pandaria, however, it is most commonly found in "The Heartland" in the Valley of Four Winds. I have only found Dark Soil a handful of times outside of this area while I was questing. The soil spawns anywhere in the heartland, from in the middle of paths, to under the little bridges, and even in the vermin cave. It is very unlikely to find Dark soil in more than one spot very often. Some common places to look while finding your first few would be Ella's turnip patch, I have found it in 5 different spots in that tiny patch. In the vermin cave(beside the giant carrot, or along the walls), or outside the vermin cave entrance. As I have said before, finding the first few is tough, and can even take up to half an hour, but you will develop an eye for doing it.

2. It has very strange spawn rates. Most times I find myself flying around The Heartland and finding one about every 5-10 minutes. To counteract the boredom this installs, I suggest being a miner. While flying around The heartland I can grind anywhere from 20 to 50 stacks of ore while searching.

3. As I have said the spawn rates are strange, mostly because sometimes they "burst spawn" Meaning, I go from finding 1 every 10 minutes or so, to several. This seems to be completely random. I have attempted to gather a little info on it. On a Thursday night at 12:10 AM I was flying around after harvesting my crops, and I had collected 13 piles of dirt, and had seen 14(someone one this before me). By 12:25 AM.This is about one dirt per minute. On a Tuesday after noon at 2:35 PM I had collected 7 piles by 2:45 PM. This is also almost one dirt per minute.

4. When looting these piles, the loot seems to have a pattern. For example, often times I find myself getting the same loot from these. For example while grinding Lovely Apples for Sho, I went out and found 9 piles, 6 of which were Jade Cats, and earlier today while I was grinding Ruby shards for Tina, I collected 3 apples out of the five dirt I collected. I would think that if some loot truly does spawn at certain times more often than others, this is for those who grind rep for a single person at a time. For example if Ruby shards dropped more often between 2:00PM and 3:00pm Than this would be the best time to grind rep for Tina.

As I have previously said these piles are CRUCIAL to doing it in a fast time. I had been confused when I had read the other post's on Dark Soil, and I am hoping to help others out.

Tip:

You cant loot these after you have gotten all the people in the farm exalted.

Ive gotten other waypoints to soil locations, in other zones, but many are redundant, or i havent found anything at those locations, so ill be checking them and posting back later. These for the dread wastes are great tho, in 2 runs, ive gotten maybe 15 items to turn in. (2am, and 4am, nazgrel)

Little tip when you're scouting around for these and you're flying. If you use the left mouse button to rotate your camera (don't stop moving forward with "w") then press CTRL and release the left mouse button your view will lock looking downward. Then you can fly around holding "W", steer with "A" and "D", and ascend/decend with jump/sit (Space/"X" by default). As long as you don't click with the mouse, your view will remain locked and it'll be easy to make passes to find soils.

Комментарий от JohnEP

Gathermate 2 will show the locations from the DBWowhead database for dark soils. Just check the box under treasure in the configuration.they will be purple circles ALL over valley. There will NOT show a yellow dot if they are there but at least you know where to look.

Комментарий от JohnEP

I have farmed a bunch of these so I am best friends with everyone. One spot is the hozen community up on the hill. I have found 3 dark soils there in one pass.

Комментарий от sopor30

After getting two of my characters to exalted with the Tillers and all of the farmers (and working on a third now), I have some useful advice that deviates from the norm (which is to just hit the Heartland to try to find them).

I found that the Heartland has an abundance of dark soil, but that you're typically competing with a few other players for them at any given moment. So I would typically hit the Temple of the Jade Serpent (Jade Forest) and the Cradle of Chi-Ji (Krasarang) and find three or four at either of the locations. The fact is that not many players like to fly out to these different spots to look for the soil.

Edit: The Windward Isle is also an excellent location to find dark soil, even if you're not doing the dailies. From what I've found, all of the dark soil can spawn in the grassy parts (west part of the isle), or across from the isle on the mainland in either of the two different caverns. I've yet to find any dark soil in the dark areas of the isle (east side).

Unfortunately, the entire rep system with the inhabitants of Halfhill to add improvements to the farm is badly broken now. What happens is that it works fine for your first alt, but then you get the rep doubler purchase for helping your next alts become exalted with the Tillers. Since it gets done twice as fast, I no longer have enough dailies with Sho, Gina, Fish, and the rest to bump up their rep much. So here I am exalted with the tillers but still have most of the folks as strangers, buddies, and possibly a friend or two. Of course, other players have the same issue so everyone is desperate for dark soils.
Feeding them gets you only so far then its to hunt the dark soils for hours along with all the other players to slowly build up the reps.
With 8 alts now exalted, I found to basically ignore the hunt for dark soils until you have completely built up the farm. Some of the reps come easily with quests (Tina, Ella, Chee-Chee, and Sho) while Old Hillpaw takes forever. I aim for Tina first and throw any found soils at her after her quests are done as the house is the biggest improvement. Chee- Chee next, then Sho, then Ella, then what ever dailies the others have done.
You can completely skip the soils if too many people are hunting them and just use food, dailies, patience or find a VERY quiet time to go look for soils.

Does any one know, how many gifts do i need to gather till get exalted all of npc in Tillers?

Комментарий от deathscreed

these things spawn EVERYWHERE I've found them as far away as the island you do the order of the cloud serpent dailies on, to near the coast of the dread wastes. No matter the zone however, they all drop the same 5 items that give individual rep with NPC's in the tillers.

Комментарий от Tempezt

Great to Farm these soils when flying in circles at the Farms north of Halfhill
during night times, found around 25-30 soils in under 30 minutes.. remember to sett your graphic's to Verry low so you can be able to se the soils clearly. happy farming :)

Комментарий от 1081574

My recommendation if you are having trouble seeing the darksoils is to turn up ur gamma setting on your computer to get a brighter screen (not to bright). Then they will be more visiable.
Also the outer islands of Townlong steppes is a source not many farm at. Not as many soils there as in halfhill but less competition.

Комментарий от mattc6911

Hi guys Surprised no one has mentioned Temple of the jade serpent , I do a circuit inside the grounds that nets me up to 7 dark soil and re spawns every 1-2 hours co ords for my circuit are

57.9- 62.5 or 57.2- 62.3...............55.7-51.5 or 55.7-50.7..............54.2- 61.2 or 54.6-60.0

53.9 -60.2 or 53.8-59.3...............52.4-58.3 or 52.9-58.8...............52.2- 57.8 or 52.9-56.8

53.1- 54.4 or 53.6-53.0................54.6-54.2 or 54.2-52.7 ..............55.4- 52.3 or 55.0-52.8 ( or 52.1)

55.7- 51.5 or 55.7-50.7................57.0-50.2 or 56.9-51.7...............57.6- 52.3 or 57.6-53.3

56.9- 52.5 or 56.4-53.0................55.9-52.1 or 55.6-53.4...............56.3-54.3

looks a lot ! but its a simple curcuit and you will soon see that one of two spots close together will spawn at about 7 places around the temple sometimes you do get both spawn together or even 3 fairly close ones ! but it still totals about 7 altogether and then re spawns within 2 hours.Together with temple of white tiger spawns and the random quests that pop up with the tillers members (yellow Q for the individual rep blue Q for overal tillers rep) you can get each one to best friends very fast . Im on my fifth toon to farm fully opened up from doing just 3 circuits a day ( log in do it ,go off and play ,go back couple of hours later and do again, go play then once more before you log for the night) PS DONT try when Celestials daily is based there....no spawns will be found on these days. Hope this helps you fellow farmers cyawl :)

Комментарий от mattc6911

further to my post on spawns in temple of the jade serpent grounds, I decided to see if I could get a rough idea of spawn times. I did first circuit at 2.45 pm on saturday and gathered 7 soils, then every 30- 45 minutes after until 6pm In that time I gathered 45 soils. . It seamed I would get 7 every 45 mins. If I started farming from 1 to 30 mins no spawns, 30 to 45 mins i would get approx 1 new spawn every 2 mins within that 15 minute period. . if you farm constantly collecting as soon as you see a spawn it becomes very random

so it looks like the optimal time is 1 circuit every 45 mins = all 7 nodes spawned.

obviously if someone else is farming the same area this throws a spanner in the works, so its best to abandon the farming and come back when its quiet again but I've now done this on 5 toons and most times apart from the odd couple of nodes missing (prob by a chance gather as someone passes) I've had the area to myself . Normally I log in, do a gather then go off and do something else, come back after and hour + do another gather, go off again then do 1 more before I log out.

21 soils, thats 21 x 990 rep (make sure to hand gift to the right npc to max out the rep gained) thats 20,790 rep a day extra and you will soon get all npcs to best friend. Any left over gifts can be handed in to the lowest npc for 550 rep (once you max out the 2 npc's that give 990 rep) to help boost em up. Why the lowest ? Cos that gets em to open up their individual quests faster so you gain more rep faster :)

Комментарий от 521889

im pretty sure they hotfixed the spawnrates and spawn locations because i usually get 2-3 dark soils when i fly my 310% mount around all the farms near halfhill, last 2 days ive got 20-25 in a matter of 3 minutes..... sooooo yeah haha

Комментарий от stickshift

I found the most elusive soils were the ones hidden among the tall vegetables in The Heartland. After some practice, I found that strafing on your smallest mount around "crop" sections caught anything peaking out.

Комментарий от 972705

I have found lot's of great info here from the comments but the thing that helps me more than anything is having the addon Gathermate 2. Once in game right click on your mini map that will open up a window so that you can pick some of your addons from there pick Gathermate 2 then go to the mini map selection and click Show Minimap Icons there will be these little purple circles ( Srry I'm color blind ) on your map now when your in a area that has has Dark soil just fly to each little circle and see if one is there if not move on to the next one. It really helps to zoom in on the area your in.

Комментарий от 1075402

Theres between 10-20 spawn's simultaneously at Heartland, your best bet is to farm these at morning or late at night when there's very little competition.

Комментарий от Jean77

I didn't want to "waste" cooking mats on leveling the Tiller Friends until I finished leveling the Tillers and cooking so I tried to scout out Dark Soil as I was going back and forth doing dailies... All of these locations are in the Valley of the Four Winds. Some days I would find 3 or 4, others I got as many as 20 hits. Saved a ton on farming mats and cooking daily for them.

while looking for the dark soil, or herbs as well, if you turn your ground clutter setting to low, the items will be much easier to see. Also, if you have the ability to fly, go up a ways stop and just look down (with the ground clutter turned to low). The soil patches stand out well and are easy to find that way. The Heartland area is a good place to start.

Комментарий от 24toten

As of patch 7.1, I believe the spawn rate on dark soil has been significantly increased since MOP. I looted about 50 dark soil in The Heartland (Valley of the Four Winds, west of Halfhill) in less than 30 minutes, almost instantly becoming best friends with the entire market. You'll find dark soil scattered everywhere in fields of crops and rabbit NPC's.

This was on a fairly dead server though with no competition.

To assist you all with Темная земля farming I made an AddOn which I put up at Curse.

It has almost all the Dark Soil locations. I threw in some other stuff too such as the NPC home locations and the gifts that they prefer as well as a brief guide to questing to help you get started.

And... I didn't forget Dog!

To give me feedback on how to improve the AddOn so that it may better assist you then please click the above link. Many thanks for your support over the years!
