The drop rates are not that far away from 0,5% / 1% at the moment and never were. This is working "as intended", this item takes AGES to drop.

Edit :
As of an unidentified patch, the droprate got brought to some VERY higher value. Expect a quick drop.

Kommentar von Insidious

This thing has a horrible droprate. You'll be killing quite a few if you're not lucky enough.

OMFG the droprate is insane, I'll never get this thing...

Kommentar von Cicero

68 kills of the Ferocious and Cave Yetis later, it finally dropped. Went up about 1/3rd of a level at 32 just from killing all the Yetis.

Kommentar von Thottbot

The droprate is higher than is says, because of it is so many that kills yetis, and only ppl that got the quest get the rod drop...thats why it says its so little droprate...

Kommentar von Thottbot

I've done this quest three times: once on my rogue once on my shaman and once on my druid now.

Rogue = Roughly 1 - 1 1/2 hours of yeti killing in the cave got me the rod

Shaman = After preparing myself for a day of yeti killing, the first yeti I killed (not even gotten inside the cave yet) drops the rod for me

Druid = This time, however, was not as lucky, and another 2 hour yeti killing fest netted me my rod.

So.. Luck goes both ways.
Hint: Best way to do the quest is to grab a 5man that all need the rod and just mow through as many yeti as possible as fast as possible. Once the rod drops, everyone can loot it, so its all good.

Enjoy =]

Kommentar von Thottbot

1.5 levels (im 32 now, yay) no rod

has done wonders for my skinning tho! Yeehaw!

Kommentar von Thottbot

I got mine from a Mountain Yeti in Alterac. 2nd kill @ 29,49.

Kommentar von Thottbot

after reading thotbott I was making myself ready for a long grinding session of killing yetis, and it dropped after the 4th kill! (

Kommentar von Thottbot

But I got it. 33 rogue, so easy to solo or duo them!

Kommentar von Thottbot

Been questing for this for about an hour and a half. I've gotten enough XP to get to 35 (about 20K) and enough leather for a long time (64 Medium, 32 heavy, 12 heavy hides, 24 medium hides) and saw plenty of minerals for miners (two mithril and a silver deposit). Not sure how many I've killed, but the leather should be a good estimate. Good if you're within three levels and a skinner or miner - otherwise I wouldn't bother unless you really want to or think you will get the rod within a few kills like other people.

im L35 and iv cleared the cave like 6 times.............no drop i think i might go 2 the a;ertog mountaints for the 0.1 drop percent..........

Kommentar von Thottbot

actully it says that drop is so low....but i found under 10 minnuttes

Kommentar von Thottbot

i got bored after running 2 hours in the cave.. killed over 150 yetis and no rod.. maybe try again later..

Kommentar von Thottbot

I got it on my first kill as a 29 paladin. I pulled two thinking I'd need to kill the entire cave, then bam. >.>

Kommentar von Thottbot

Lvl 30: i begin with hillsbrad cave... i'm a miner and skinner, so it's a good place for me. I read thott about horrible drops, so i keep track of every loot i get.

Lvl 31: ding... entire lvl 30 spent with yetis... no sign...

Lvl 32: yeti yeti yeti all round alterac and hillsbrad, Frostmaw died a couple of times already... quit it, go to stv...

lvl 35: 130 medium leathers, 270 heavy leathers, 70 iron ores, 4 aquamarines, 2 shadowgems and 8 malachite later, still no sign. In total: 400 kills and 19 Iron Deposits.

I'm getting sick of it... although i'm pretty rich now :)

Kommentar von Thottbot

It is a Random drop.
Just clear it out Good Exp anyways.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I didn't have quite the horror stories everyone else had. My rogue got it off of the first yeti. My shaman, on the other hand, got about 120 medium leather, 50 heavy leather, 20 medium hide, 5 heavy hide, 3 uncommon armor pieces, and 6 greater healing potions. It took me about an hour and a half that time.

Kommentar von Thottbot

took me like 75 -.-

Kommentar von Thottbot

Droprate increased my ass

Kommentar von Thottbot

That the drop rate is higher is horse &*!@, i farmed the god damn rod for 1½ hour and gained 30k xp before i turned in the quest. This quest is all about luck

Kommentar von Thottbot

O_0 I killed 1 Cave Yeti and get that Q item...
lucky^^

Kommentar von Allakhazam

The drop is false, because they only drop if you have the quest, the others kills without quest lows the really drop

Kommentar von Allakhazam

First kill dropped O.o. lvl 33 Giant Yeti.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Sound like i don't have a nice time to do. Well well. Where do you begin this quest?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

hasn't dropped in 100 kills...

Kommentar von Allakhazam

hm, i dunno why but 10th cave yeti dropped it...

In quests its written that one of them MUST have it, so I decided to kill them one by one... first one I encountered in the cave dropped it. Strange luck.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Final count for me: 72 medium leather, 30 heavy leather, 8 medium hide and 2 heavy hide = 112 yetis deaded for 1 stinkin' rod. Went from 14% to 28% xp at lvl 34 with about 142 - 151 xp per kill and went thru 4 mining node spawns.

Would have given up if I wasn't so stubborn . . . and I do enjoy the show the quest ends up providing.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I've been at it for an hour now and I give up. Maybe it'll be better tomorrow. My advice, skip this quest.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

One toon it dropped on the 5th yet. The other toon I killed 80+ and nothing. Who can tell this quest is so hit or miss.

I say if it doesn't drop in the first 10 min give up.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

this took me killing a total of 219 cave yeti's and 353 ferocious yeti's...finally dropped from a cave yeti.....took forever soloing. luckily my pet was there.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Got it first kill. This is my fifth character doing this quest on and it took me more than an hour on the other four. Going to go play the lotter while my luck is hot.

LOW F'in droprate.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Right, wiped the cave 5 times now...
6! Finally dropped off of a ferocious yeti! Woohoo!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

The rod dropped within 15 kills... luck or better drop rate than as posted here, you tell me.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

drop rate is no good. lvl 60 orc hunter, in full epics, with pet on aggressive. I kill each yeti in a second, and i brought forth a great culling to the entire cave 2 times before it dropped. ive killed like 150 of them in a few minutes, and nothing.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Nope, nothing for me either. And I've been through the cave twice. *sigh*

EDIT: Allakhazam is blessed. I just posted it, killed a Yeti and it dropped.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Hundreds of Yeti dead, level gained, and 5 gold later - Still no rod.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Today, it dropped for me after around 6 kills !

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I've been grinding these damn cave yetis for 1.5 hours now.. I gained a lvl and about more than 1.3 gold.. And still no Rod for me..
-I'll guess i keep grindin' till the day my head hits the table, never to see the sun again..

-I'm gonna see the sun again! About 10 minutes after i posted this, then it dropped! Allakhazam must be blessed or something :)

Kommentar von Allakhazam

These Drops rates are far worse then anything I've been threw so far XD

Kommentar von Allakhazam

1st kill dropped it. Was a level 30 Cave Yeti.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I don't know is it luck but after killing 10 Cave, first Ferocious Yeti droopesd me Rod

Kommentar von Allakhazam

The yetis are awesome to farm aswell, for skinning and money drops xD

About my 8th kill and I got the drop.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I've just been none stop killing the Cave and Ferocious Yeti's for 2 hours and 21minutes and was tempted to go straight to bed, so as I was on my way back up out of the cave I managed to get one before I exited which made my night lol, so I ended up finishing the quest after all but in a time-consuming p1$$ take :/

Too low for my liking to be honest, quests like this kinda do my head in and beg for me to exit the game and not do the quests like that. The other quest similar to this was the Plainstrider beaks in the barrens for the Horde, the 7 beaks took a while to collect too.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I killed about 70 yetis so far and still no rod : \

Kommentar von Allakhazam

what a quest XD

Kommentar von DrexOzzy

for wow classic can confirm its about a 1% chance to drop. spent about 1 1/2 hrs killing mountain yeti until the item dropped. unless u are really lucky with your rng prepare to spend about 1-2 hrs killing

Kommentar von Scccxs

Got mine in the cavern (lower part of the cavern -> passage -> cave at the end - there). Mid-northern part of Hillsbrad Foothills.

Kommentar von Geryth

Doing this is a group is beneficial as I confirmed that it IS shared party loot and every party member can loot it when it finally drops.

Kommentar von WarriorWarrior

Killed 7 Cave Yetis and then got the drop on my first Ferocious Yeti
