I did some fishing off the Hillsbrad foothills town dock and picked up a few specimens of strangel kelp in watertight boxes. Just cast a line into the "fish hot spot" to get a pretty good rate of watertight boxes. The boxes also contained leather, wool, and rum. Also good rate of Blackmouth fish if interested.

Basically go to any town near the ocean and swim around offshore for a few minutes, the stuff is everywhere.

Stranglekelp (Herb)

Found exclusively underwater.
Used most frequently in underwater breathing potions.
The whole of the plant can be eaten, but it is very salty, and rubbery when fresh.
When used in cooking, it can be used either in powder form, or chopped. It can also be eaten raw.

* WARNING *
Stranglekelp is often very, very deep down and as such, a water breathing potion or spell may be advisable if you intend to gather it.

Commento di Schnoodledorfer

Found exclusively underwater.

Not quite true. It can be found on the beach above water in the Zoram Strand in Ashenvale, at least. It's almost always underwater, though.

As far as underwater breathing goes, that is nice, and so is being able to swim quickly. The aquatic form available to druids is very nice. Sometimes there are bubbling fissures at deep depths, particularly if the is a quest in the area, that allow anyone to breathe underwater for a while.

It's probably also worth noting that the levels of monsters you might encounter vary widely depending on the location.

Commento di Arrzarr

Another very good place to find stranglekelp is around the shore of wetlands.

Commento di 485572

Found more than what is on the map.

If you like to farm this, you either have a potion drinking problem, aquatic form or tons of patience.

Commento di vardebedian

Post shattering a good place to farm this seems to be the now flooded Thousand Needles.

Commento di 713038

I never thought I'd say this, but the best place to farm Stranglekelp as of 4.0.1 is Thousand Needles.

Commento di Deathsaber

4.03a, :) fix'd.

Such an amazing job with the maps and pins. I wish more herbs/ore locations were this documented! Nice job and thank you!

Commento di LordMerlock

The best place to farm Stranglekelp after the Shattering is hands down Darrowmere Lake in Western Plaguelands.

There are literally DOZENS of spawn points in the lake and most within minimap tracking distance of one another.

Takes a bit of swimming, but there are no enemies, no dangers and nothing else stopping anyone of any level from gathering as much Stranglekelp as they want. Well, except having to rise up for air, of course, though druids, shamans and warlocks will have an even easier time with that.

If you're still farming Stranglekelp in Stranglethorn and Mithril in Burning Steppes, guess what? Something amazing happened during The Shattering! Cataclysm owners can now farm both Stranglekelp and Mithril in ONE area: Thousand Needles!

When you fly to Thousand Needles your flight path there is now Westreach Summit.

First thing you want to do is pick up and complete the quest, "The Grimtotem are Coming" Horde | Alliance from Kanati Greycloud as soon as you land.

Then, Motega Firemane will give you the quest, "Two If By Boat". Horde | Alliance This will swiftly take you to Fizzle and Pozzik's Speedbarge (Carbonite users can note the super fast speed in their map). WARNING! Do not right click the buff out of curiosity, it does indeed remove you from the boat! You will find Pozzik upstairs.

Finally, complete Pozznik's quest, "Do Me a Favor?" Horde | Alliance and you will get a special buff "Speedbarge Diving Helm" that allows you to swim and run underwater anytime you are in Thousand Needles. Tip: Running on the ground, underwater is a LOT faster. +60% faster!

Want more? Oh, Yes, there's more! If you do the follow up quests: "Down in the Deeps" Horde | Alliance, "Pirate Accuracy Increasing" Horde | Alliance, and "Circle the Wagons... er, Boats" Horde | Alliance You will get your very own drivable River Boat!

Now that you have completed these easy steps, you are now ready to farm Stranglekelp and Mithril. Enjoy!

As of the post date on this comment, I have been all over the Word of Warcraft searching for the best place to farm these and I have came to one place where I will defiantly call the best place to farm them and that is under water in Thousand Needles. I did a round in 30 min in Aquatic form and came up with 5 stacks.

Commento di 938739

I went to Thousand Needles and decided to farm one thousand stranglekelps. It took me more than 2 hours walking on the water floor with a tauren paladin with guild perk. I felt my body bloated! It could be faster if I was a druid, but the faster gather from tauren helped a lot, there was no competition and no fights with mobs. From the 200 mills I got 618 normal pigments and 100 rare pigments. Thousand Needles is the place!

Commento di Thottbot

It's under 90 now. Maybe 80 or 85. I noticed somewhere in the 80s that I was to collect it.

Commento di Thottbot

get out of darkshore and go to wetlands.

Commento di Thottbot

found some inside Black Fantom deeps.

Commento di Thottbot

There are super much stranglekelp on the zoramstrand. just swimaround there and you will find alot of it

Commento di Thottbot

its used in free action potion

Commento di Thottbot

There is one reliable EASY stranglekelp drop near the Zoram Strand. Swim out along the cliffs at the south end of the beach until you find it. I have made flights there for that purpose and it has always been there. of course, there are other drops in the area, but most are well guarded. Good luck!

Commento di Thottbot

Stranglekelp is used in a bunch of alchemy recipies, especially any from 120 skill to about 180. One of the recipies is a water breathing potion (it also requires some blackmouth oil you get from, not surprisngly, the oily blackmouth). My utility gatherer is a lv22 Warrior with Skinning/Herbalism and FIshing, cooking and first aid. He gathers the kelp, fishes for blackmouth, then mails stacks back to the mage, who, in turn, sends back a stack of 5 water breathing potions, which give a lot of herb gathering time.

If you're looking for spots, hit the Wetlands. Hands down it's the best place for mid-range characters (20-40) to gather kelp. But beware-- Blizzard has lvl 22-24 or better camping the areas where the kelp pops.

Commento di Thottbot

Things I've done to farm stranglekelp effectively are:

Use a druid, get druid to level 18 and get seal form. Swimming up and down the coast is much easier when you're fast and don't need air.
Download the addon "Gatherer". This will help you by keeping track of where stranglekelp appears. Herbs have pre-designated spawn locations, however they aren't always spawned. This addon will allow you to map out specific points so you can avoid areas that never seem to have it.
Places I've found for stranglekelp that are fairly safe for level 18 are Westfall and Darkshore. I personally prefer Westfall because the coast is easier to navigate.

I've been consistently selling stranglekelp for 3g/stack and haven't had much success at higher prices.

I also send my kelp to another account which is stationed near the AH. There is an hour delay in sending items through mail, but it helps me avoid flying to IF every time I need to sell.

Commento di Thottbot

Where is a good place for Horde players to get this plant?

i have been alliance and saw tons of it off the coast of the wetlands and Darkshore.

Commento di Thottbot

i hour and only 15 dude go to wetlands and swim up and down the north and west side of there and ull get about 20 in 30 mins. lvl 28-29 in the north lvl 23-24 in the west

Commento di Thottbot

Stranglekelp -> Elixir of Defense -> Toughened Leather Gloves, which are not only blue but the pattern is learned from a trainer.

Commento di Thottbot

On my way from Stranglethorn to Booty Bay, i find alot in the ocean near STV. Hope this helps anyone.

Commento di Thottbot

On Earthen Ring, the single biggest users of Strangle are alchemists making Elixir of Defense for cloth and leather armor guys. Don't know a druid or rogue who would get into a fight without one of these; can't speak for cloth armor guys. Defense potions of all strengths are probably the biggest sellers at the ER AH, and while the prices might not be as high as some other servers, you will sell everything you can make within the 8-hour slot.

Thanks for some of the hunting tips; my alchemist was having a tough time finding enough. She's a druid and aquatic form is simply killer.

Commento di Thottbot

Zoram Strand is by far the best place to gather kelp. In about an hour and a half i had 43 stranglekelp total.

I've been getting about 10-12g (way too much IMO, but i dont complain) per stack of 20. You just have to sell when there isn't any other kelp in the AH.

I gather with my shaman, i use water walking and then just dive down when i find an herb.

Commento di Thottbot

its used in PVP free actoin Potions.they are used alot.

Commento di Thottbot

Follow the coastline south of Ratchet. In 5 minutes I find an average of 20. Usually in between Ratchet and Fray Island. :)

Commento di Thottbot

The 1.7 patch notes include bullet point saying "Significantly more Stranglekelp has started washing ashore to the beaches of the world." under the professions section.

Bigger supply, lower prices...

Commento di Thottbot

Note the new An'Quraj (sp?) turn-in for this item. Prices are going to go up.

Commento di Thottbot

Several people here have said Wetlands is the best place to find this. I must agree, and there are enough unguarded spots that even at low levels it's not too hard to get.

For those who are not:
A) undead;
B) warlocks with the breathing buff;
C) druids with aquatic form; or
D) using a breathing potion;

There is a simple method to getting this seaweed without too much danger to oneself. Someone used the term "water walking", and I think this might be what was meant.

Basically, one swims across the surface of semideep water, with the Find Herbs function turned on. When stranglekelp is located, swim until you are practically "on top" of the stranglekelp on the minimap, then swim straight down. Once you spot the kelp visually, change your course to get close to it (if it's unguarded). Harvest it, then swim straight up. You should be back with plenty of breath bar to spare.

It's best to use this method at Wetlands, some distance from shore. Generally stranglekelp far offshore is unguarded.

Edit: Note to self, it's STRANGLEkelp, not STRANGEkelp.

Commento di Thottbot

Fished it out of lushwater oasis

Commento di Thottbot

Is a shammy spell.

And to add something. This is an exellent money maker for people who just started out.

Water breathing etc. is nice, but in no way required.

Commento di Thottbot

All along the west coast of Ghostlands you will find this weed. One trip North or South usually gains me 12+ pieces in about 10-15 min.
Let me add, I find more in the deeper water.

Commento di Thottbot

According to the Stranglekelp node drops, you can get Golden Scale Shoulders off Stranglekelp nodes 180% of the time!

Woot woot!

Commento di Thottbot

If u walk from Ratchet to Northwatch hold along the shore, u will find alot of stranglekelp. Gave me a stack in an hour. Sold for 5g on ah per stack. Makes a good living for low lvls who have herbs. Just watch out for the mobs there, they are quite annoying.

gl .

Commento di Thottbot

Has anyone tried searching the North Sea? I can usually get about 2 stacks there in 30 mins (west of Ghostlands).

Commento di Thottbot

Off coast north of Menethil Harber drank water breathing poition that lasts 30 minutes hervested 26 Stanglekelp in 20 minutes - sell stack of 20 on my server for 12g not to shabby!

Commento di Thottbot

I found some along the shore of Ratchet.

Commento di Thottbot

Must have caught a farming day...I wanted to farm some of this herb to make some lesser mana potions for my alt. Got 12 from Zoram Strand. Went to Wetlands and didn't fare much better, however, there was a lot more in the far and deep waters of Southshore.

Commento di Thottbot

On my server they go for about 18g to 20g a stack, it sucks a ton because my twink priest burns through mana pots like theres no tomorrow. 's a good thing i made my friend go alch/herb, now he's a rich sob, n I get my steady stream of pots. Farmin' these is pretty cake no matter where you go.

Commento di Thottbot

lets face it, this stupid thing can be found under just about any large body of water

Commento di Thottbot

Been finding it along the coast in the Ghostlands, as well as the coast of Eversong Woods.

Commento di Thottbot

wear i can find the most stranglekelp
p.s. i am lo lvl.

Commento di Allakhazam

Also can be gathered in the ocean of darkshore on the northern end.

Commento di Allakhazam

I just spent 30 minutes swimming around west of Westfall and got a bit over 20 of them.

I have located stranglekelp but do I have to dive? How do I harvest it?

Commento di Allakhazam

If you are not an herbalist, you'll have to buy it in the Auction House

Commento di Allakhazam

This sold anywhere?

Commento di Allakhazam

Eastern and Western strands off shores of hillsbrad is excellent for SK especially out in deep waters

Commento di Allakhazam

It's *under* the water :) You have to change your view and swim down to harvest it.

Commento di Allakhazam

I was able to get 43 in around 40 minutes off the cost of Silverpine Forest. just swam up and down collecting them and the mobs are lvl 13-15. easy to get there if your horde

Commento di Allakhazam

Only a median price of 10s? On Blackrock server, a full stack of 20 of these is going for 3g!

Commento di Allakhazam

Another great place is to just swim from Western Strand to the Eastern Strand (or vice-versa) in Hillsbrad. I saw one Stranglekelp, when I swam over to get it, another one appeared on the map and I just followed them along the way, usually always dropped 2-3 per gather, too. :)

Commento di Allakhazam

Can also be found in the lake around Fenris Isle, in Silverpine, in the undead area

Commento di Allakhazam

can easily be farmed in WETLANDS
...but they are in the water with SOME lvl ~25 murgols.. can be dodged!

what skill is needed ? i need these flowers for my recipe but they are extremely expensive.. :|

i'd rather make another char and pick them myself, so what skill needed?

Commento di Allakhazam

As an alliance mage passing through horde lands, my find herbs noted strangekelp at the bottom of Mystral Lake. Of course, there are lv25 Water Elementals who ate me. But for those that can handle it, it should be easy pickins'.

Commento di Allakhazam

I have found this quite common off the coast of the Westfall

Edited, Sun Jan 9 19:26:35 2005

Commento di Allakhazam

Unless you are a Druid Herbalist with waterform, the only way you are going to farm this stuff successfully is to obtain the "Hydrocane" Rare Staff from Gnommer and get an Azure Silk Belt...any lower lvl tailor can make. The Hydrocane will give you underwater breathing..., the belt adds 15% to your swim speed. Make a macro to switch these out when needed and you are good to go...

Silverpine is not bad for Stranglekelp. According to my Gathermate 2 addon I've got nine nodes off the coast, nearly twice what wowhead is showing. That's weird because I use the wowhead looter and upload my data every day that I play.

Does anyone know what leveling fish you need to start fishing stanglekelp in darkshore for example? and also do you need to be at specific pools or just any water
