BoP Tradeskill drop locations - Burning Crusade

[Kosath]

Many of the new recipes for tradeskills are BoP and drop from specific mobs. The recipes only show up for people with the appropriate tradeskill, although your current skill level does not seem to matter. Note that these are only the BoP drops that come from specific locations... most of the purple recipes are still random world drops. Also note that they do not always drop of course. Below are what I've managed to piece together so far:

Thank you, Kosath! I'd like to add a few more for alchemy that I've heard about through various locations...

- Major Fire Protection Potion: dropped in Mechanar (Packs before Pathaleon the Calculator)
- Major Frost Protection Potion: dropped by Nexus-Prince Shaffar (The last boss in Mana-Tombs)
- Major Arcane Protection Potion: dropped by Vir'aani Arcanists in Nagrand
- Major Holy Protection Potion: dropped by Abyssal Flamebringers in Blade's Edge Mountains

If anyone knows of anymore recipe drops (for alchemy or anything else) please let us know! : )

Thanks for putting this together Kosath.

I have been getting very frustrated as a Jewelcrafter, because I am not locating any of the rare, dropped recipes. It has caused my tradeskill progression to stall a bit, as I have very little to "skill up" on. I currently have several rare gem types banked, but I don't have any recipes to cut them. So, once I get a recipe for them I should be able to finally reach 375 Jewelcrafting.

I also have stockpiled a small supply of assorted other gems, so if any of you are in need of a gem to fill a socket feel free to contact me. All I ask in return is that you toss me a few of the gems you find in the vast expanses of Outland.

Also, if anyone happens upon a BoE dropped JewelCrafting recipe, please think of me, and perhaps we can work out a fair and equitable exchange.

Thanks all, and happy hunting!

Thanks Sound, I added those recipe locations. For some reason the search method I used didn't show them.

And Krell, unfortunately it seems that Blizzard decided to make most of the 350+ jewelcrafting recipes into random drops in the 68+ zones and instances. There are just a ton of them out there, and they drop all over the place. Best bet is to watch the auction house and kill a lot. Wish I had a better solution for you.
