These are very easy to farm up quickly in Blade's Edge Mountains, in an area called "Scalewing Shelf", which is not far from Toshley's Station. Felsworn Scalewing and Scalewing Serpent both reside in the area and the scales can be skinned from both of them. They are used for a number of very nice epic crafted items, and are usually fairly cheap to purchase on the Auction House as well. ( If only we could say the same for Cobra Scales.. ) In the process you may also find yourself with a nice stack of serpent flesh which can be used to create spell damage food. :)

The wind serpents in Sethekk Halls also drop these. Though killing nonelites is definitely a more lucrative practice.
