For fun, I duo'd LBRS with a guildy at 70. We had this drop off Overlord Wyrmthalak, so I can only assume it's simply a very low drop rate item off a number of mobs, and WoWhead is simply too new for it to have enough data from the older instances to have it reported dropping from them.

If you really want this enchant, you should run Lower Blackrock Spire (LBRS), this dropped for my group FOUR times in 2 runs. It dropped off of normal mobs, not just bosses. 2 of them were ogres, can't remember what the others were. I don't know that the price quoted above is correct for buyout (390g), but you can likely sell this for loads of money, as it's a prime twink enchant.

What would be a better enchant for a dual-wield enh shammy at level 40 with Heaven's Light http://www.wowhead.com/?item=13026 and Wirt's Third Leg http://www.wowhead.com/?item=9359, fiery or +5 damage? From what I understand, fiery increases DPS by about +2. In doing some calculations, it looks like the +5 enchant would increase DPS by only slightly less. It seems like fiery is the winner, but is there more of a benefit with the raw +5 damage enchant over fiery specifically related to windfury? Thanks in advance.

2g does seem way too cheap, but I paid 20g for it which seems about right. It requires 10 Greater Nether Essences which go for around 15g-18g on my server, making it an uneconomical enchant, to put it mildly. Problem is Nether Essences are mostly disenchanted from pre-BC end-game green items, but most players head to outland as soon as possible.

Farming at 85 as mage:

Should be able to do this without pulling any mobs or pats except where noted, though if you do, at 85, they're cake.

Enter the instance, go up ramp to the right, through door on the right at top of ramp, drop off the ledge. Down the ramp, through the doorway on the left. You'll come out to a platform that has 5 mobs. Go to the right edge of the platform and go all the way to the corner, turn right and slow fall to the lowest level. Run down the middle of the hallway, avoiding all the mobs on the sides, you'll get to the base of a ramp up with 5 mobs, one of whom is sleeping. Kill all 5, then run up the ramp toward the spiders. Turn invisible just as you reach the spiders, and you should be able to bypass all of them, just barely. Finish going up the ramp to the first group of Spirestone ogres. Clear the platform of all of them. On the right edge of the platform, look down to see a bridge with more ogres. Drop down and clear the bridge. Clear the room to the West, then head back East, two more guarding the entrance, and that's it, run out, reset, go again till it drops. When running out, there are a couple spots with mobs you have to run between. If you run exactly between them, they won't agro you. However, back in the first room, you'll agro the group under the bridge. Just run out, no point wasting time killing them.

PS. most of these ogres aren't the Spirestone Warlords that you're looking for. If there's none in the room, no need to clear it.

Edit: Drop rate, at least for me, was way below the 12% stated by wowhead. Took 10-15 runs to finally get it to drop. YMMV.

Confirmed to still drop in 5.4.7(off the ogre rare in LBRS), but with the announcement of [i]Warlords of Draenor[/i] and the rebuilding of the old Blackrock dungeons, this may not be the case for much longer. Get it now, while you can.
