If you want to level enchanting with these, never mind. The cheapest way to level enchanting from 265 to 300 is to buy the Formula: Enchant Shield - Greater Stamina. You can buy this in Darnassus from Mythrin'dir or in Undercity from Daniel Bartlett. This formula only uses 5 x Dream Dust.Please be aware that this formula is Bound on Pickup and can not be sent to an alt once bought.
It becomes yellow at 285 but even without the perks of a level 25 guild, it should still be cheaper than using nether essences.
I have used it to level to 300 andand saved my essences for the Arcanite rod.(No more rods required as of 5.0)
Disenchants from level 50-55 items. Better chance on weapons.
Do NOT go to BRD if you are attempting to farm these! It is a HUGE waste of time. I, unfortunately, found out the hard way. Stratholme seems to be the best way to farm Lesser Eternal Essence.
What I do is I farm the living side of Strat (go in the front door, hang left) and pick up tons of runecloth. I also save the BOE greens and blues I find and disenchant those as well. This has been by far the most profitable use of my time to level enchanting. -TirianaThank you, Tiriana
