Lumber Mill

The Lumber Mill takes up a Medium plot which can also be used for a Barn, Gladiator's Sanctum, Trading Post or Inn / Tavern. Once upgraded to Tier 3, your garrison will have two Medium plots available.

Abilities
This building is good for stockpiling garrison resources.

  • Level 1 - Allows you to mark small trees in Draenor for harvest. Harvested Timber can be converted to work orders for garrison supplies.
  • Level 2 - Allows you to mark medium trees for additional Timber.
  • Level 3 - Allows you to mark large trees for even more Timber.


Level 3 Unlock
The Level 3 version of this building is unlocked by Upgrading the Mill, which requires you to complete 75 Work Orders and two quest lines.

The Reduction in Force quests require you to find Alexi Barov / Weldon Barov and kill them for their head. You will also earn the Barov Lumberjack Caller.

The Legacy of the Ancients quest is started by finding the Petrified Ancient to get the Barkskin Tome. You then must find and kill four ancients located in the level 100 areas of Shadowmoon Valley, Nagrand, Gorgrond, and Spires of Arak. These ancients will sometimes spawn after harvesting Medium Timber. You will also earn Treessassin's Guise.


Work Orders
The Lumber Mill allows you to mark trees in Draenor for lumberjacks to cut down, which gives you Timber. You can then trade 10 Timber for ~30 x Garrison Resources and Apexis Crystal.

Trees that can be marked will show up on your minimap like other gathering nodes, as well as appearing far away in the world. Each Small Timber gives ~5 Timber, Timber gives ~10 Timber, and Large Timber gives ~20 Timber.

Learning to mark small trees requires the completion of Easing into Lumberjacking, Sharper Blades, Bigger Timber for medium trees, and Tree-i-cide for large trees.

For an added bonus, you can get the Phylarch the Evergreen follower at Level 3, which is the only follower with the Evergreen trait. The Phylarch the Evergreen NPC will spawn and attack you twice after harvesting Large Timber. After you defeat him he retreats. When he spawns for a third time and you defeat him, he will become a follower. Once he is your follower, he offers the Subversive Infestation quest, which rewards a Everbloom Seed Pouch.
