Hello my fellow WoW junkies, I am Villio and I have made a guide to ease the pain of Volatile farming! I will make it easyer to farm Volatiles then slaping a Slap Chop! I myself hate farming for hours just for a few Volatiles and smashing my head on my keyboard so Hopefully this guide helps everyone please enjoy.
1.Volatile Fire
I tried grinding these things off of Fire elementals but why would you kill stuff for a CHANCE of drops when there is a way to get 100% Drop rate of Fires well im about to tell you guys the magic spot where you too can farm them at rapid rates with 100% drop chance! All you need is a fishing pole! Yes, A fishing pole, Once you have obtained one you must go to hyjal and fly to the Sulfron Spire, search in the lava for "Fire pools" and fish them, you average 4-6 volatiles every pool and there is atleast 3-6 pools always up just fly around and you will find them, I usually get 20 volatiles every 10mins. Here is a link to one of my images to shwo you guys the spot to fly around.

2.Volatile Air
I found the best place for these bad boys are in Uldum, fly too Orsis and start killing the Scion of Al'Akir there is alot there and thay have a very rapid spawn rate, thay drop a average from 1-2 Volatiles, if you farm for a hour you should be able to get 20-30 airs in no time, here is a link below to the spot to go to to farm them.

3.Volatile Water
I found the best place to farm these are outside of the Dragonmaw Port in Twilight highlands, you kill the Muddied Water Elemental's there is a large quantity of them and the respawn rates are rapid thay drop 1-2 Volatiles with a pretty decent drop rate again same with the airs in a hour you should average 20-30 in a hour of not more. Here is Aimage below to show the spot of the mobs.

4.Volatile Earth
The best place for these is also in Twilight Highlands, killing the Obsidian Stoneslave's thay drop 1-2 Volatiles with about a 25% drop chance I was seeing from my hours of farming which isn't bad at all, you find these elementals just west of Thundermar, You should average 25-35 a hour here is a link below to show you the exact spot for farming these.

5.Volatile Life
Well for these I would have to say roll a herbalist since blizzard made the Stone Trogg Fungalmancer's not drop them anymore I would say leveling a herbalist and going from there is your best bet I have tried farming everything possible for lifes havent gotten none if any so roll a herbalist! You will be happy with the results! Sorry I couldnt help much with the life part.
Well that's it for the guide I hope I have helped alot of you with your volatile farming and wish you all luck on your journeys.
