How to farm Small Brilliant Shard
Disenchant original-world rare equipment requiring approximately levels 46–50. Match the item’s expansion and quality; a green item usually gives dust or essence instead.
Classic Era, TBC and Wrath use the original Azeroth terrain. Cataclysm and Mists use the reworked world, so use a route for your realm’s terrain.
See Enchanting leveling for progression and related materials.

For original WoW, Outland and Northrend, the ranges above refer to the equipment’s required character level. Cataclysm’s 272+ ranges refer to item level. These are different numbers: read the item tooltip and match its expansion before buying a batch to disenchant.
