Netherweb Spider Silk

Updated for 5.4.2 12/10/13

Best place to farm: Karazan

As soon as you enter the instance, you'll open a door, immediately to the right there's an opening, go thru there. The 1st three rooms are spiders, kill the spiders, loot, run out of the instance and reset instance (don't kill any bosses in the instance). Don't bother with anything else in the instance, if you have to kill anything other than spiders, you're doing it wrong.

The spiders are literally right next to the instance door, the 3rd spider room is only about 80 yards from the main instance entrance. Each run will net you (no pun) about 7 to 10 Netherweb spider silk's. It's so fast, once I got in a groove, it took me literally 1 minute and 26 seconds (as a level 90 iLvL 535 Warlock) to enter the instance, AoE the spider mobs, loot, and be back outside of the instance. You could loot all the spiders in Karazan 5 times in less than 10 minutes real time.

Note: 5 runs yielded 44 Netherwebs and 12 BoE greens. (You can only enter 5 instances per hour max as a Blizzard limit; so just log out, do something on an alt and come back later)

The best place I've found to farm for this is just south of Allerian Stronghold. There are no other mobs to avoid and the spiders are fairly concentrated.

as with many things in this game, it depends on your luck - or more realistically what the computer rolls for you, so please stop lamenting how WoWhead is wrong or you drop rates are bad. Just like rolling a dice, you only get an even chance of each number occuring after rolling thousands of times, and since no one has single-handedly killed this many widows, many would be experiencing what seems to be "unfair/uneven" rates, while others maybe getting a drop every kill. Other than that, the area outside Allerian Hold is a reasonable place, running from north to south; respawn rates are enough to keep up with at most 2-3 people at the same time, especially if there's no one trying to do For the Fallen
