For those of you who had been trying to get felwort WQ to spawn on your alt herbalist let me tell you how I got just that to happen on my new herbalist. I was perplexed, farming for over three hours and no 'felwort node' to be found.
The way I got the WQ to pop was to get rank 1 in each of the five Legion herbs. When the next round of felwort quests spawned it was there for my new alt. You have to wait for a NEW felwort WQ to spawn but mine was there.
Best,
Zab

It says level 10 but WQ aren't available until level 60 currently (2025, TWW). Does anyone know if I can somehow pick this up on a level 20 toon? I figured out how to get Blood of Sargeras but this still hasn't popped for me.

Description
This herb bubbles and seethes with a foul energy. It is smooth, dry, and cool, yet somehow quite painful to touch. Your herbalism trainer in Dalaran will want to see this.

I sent felwort samples to some of my fellow herbalists, but haven't heard back from them yet. Could you please follow up with them and collect their analyses. Ryno Bloomfield is currently working in Un'goro Crater. Dani Earthtouch is researching Freya's influence in Sholazar Basin.
