It looks like these formulas will drop from elemental "invasions" that will be starting at a later date. I haven't been able to find a planned date, but there are achievements related to said invasions already. Rumor is that the invasions will be going live with the raid.

Apparently, all illusion formulas drop from the big dragon bosses at the Primal Storms event (Bouldron for Earth, Crystalus for Water, Infernum for Fire and Karantun for Air). I've been farming the Earth one for almost a whole week now (it can drop for non-enchanters and they can trade it to others in their group!) - but I haven't seen it drop [i]once[/i], while the other formulas have dropped for ~2-3 people per raid group on other bosses. So I would assume it's currently bugged. :(

One rare spawn at the very start of an event popping, and then seem to be randomly every 30-50 minutes or so after that. This is the type of Storm event needed for each of the rares to spawn:

Elemental Air (Thunderstorm) After a hotfix they all drop [item=200911] [npc=193684] [npc=193674] [npc=193653] [npc=193647]

Elemental Earth (Sandstorm) After a hotfix they all drop [item=200912] [npc=193652] [npc=193680] [npc=193644] [npc=193654]

Elemental Fire (Firestorm) After a hotfix they all drop [item=200913] [npc=193686] [npc=193675] [npc=193650] [npc=193648]

Elemental Water (Snowstorm) After a hotfix they all drop [item=200914] [npc=193655] [npc=193682] [npc=193679] [npc=193645]
