Farming Knothide Leather — Retail

Posted by admin

Retail · The Burning Crusade materials
Updated 21 October 2026

This is the Retail guide for Knothide Leather. It covers an older expansion’s crafting material, not Midnight’s new reagents.

Train Outland Skinning for this material. Retail uses a separate 1–75 Outland skill bar; the old combined 1–600 progression does not apply. Character levels depend on zone scaling and timeline selection, so the map and quest requirements in your current game determine access.

Where to farm Knothide Leather

  • Netherstorm
  • Nagrand

Kill and fully loot the skinnable beasts in the farming area, then skin each corpse. Move between packs so that earlier groups can respawn. Learn the matching expansion’s Skinning skill for better gathering results.
