depends on your economy, but it is arguably Zangarmarsh. I find Terrokkar to be great as a stack of terocone goes for about 25g on my server + regular herbs that I need for consumables.

Terokkar wins in my mind. Terocone (as mentioned) is awesome. You also get a lot of Felweed. And there's Mana Thistle in Skettis, along with those awesome Ancient Guardians whom you can down and herb/skin for 3-5 motes of mana and 2-4 good, Outlands-quality herbs.

one of the main reasons that I am leveling a hunter is to be able to solo those thigns. I haven't tried with Anobix for a while, but as far as I know they are not rootable (see what I did there...)

ya i tried the elite trees and i can solo em as a prot warrior :D takes me a bit, but i dont die.
the actual loot is nothin, but each one u herb gets around 3 motes of life, 3 ancient lichen, and some felweed too, it owns.

zangamarsh is also nice, lots of various herb both for outland stuff and a few stuff that people leveling alchemy, can't remember the names; just some stuff that you'd pick up in like the lvl 55+ areas...sorry for bad post brain is shot.

I am extremely new to this great game, ( 3 month's ) and I am a hunter lvl 60 with herb and alch. I keep hearing about those elite tree's and being able to herb them? What does that mean? how do you herb a corpse?

Thanks for any insight on this matter.

I recently did a ton of quests in Netherstorm and fell in love with Netherbloom. This stuff goes for 60-80g per stack on my server. Usually sells quick too. I'm not sure about the price of manathistle. I just started picking that and haven't sold any yet. It can be found on Sunwell btw. So if you are there doing dailies you might grab some. Love the huge mana recovery from that too ^^

Zangarmarsh is good though. I think a number of quests there took longer than they should have cause of stopping to pick herbs so often.

On a side note. I would highly recommend doing as many dailies as you can. I've only been and herbalist for a couple months on my shammy but I have done countless dailies with my hunter and can say that they are a 100% sure fire way to get your epic flier. I had no problem getting the gold on my first 70 just by doing dailies. No farming, crafting, or purple drops helped the funds. Just dailies. If I had Sunwell and the 25 daily limit back on my hunter it would have been faster too.

We'll see about gathering. I have been grabbing a lot of herbs on my shammy and making good money off them so maybe it is equally viable method of getting an epic.

gl!

All it means is that when you kill the mob itself. After you have looted anything it may have on it, your herbalism skill is going to be available on it.

If you hover over the corpse after looting it you will see the herbalism icon and you can get extra herbs/vendor trash/edibles etc.

It's just like skinning for a herbalist.
