Hey all,
Stumbled across a few interesting titbits, I think worth knowing

All professions share 1 elemental: Spirit of Harmony. They are BoP so you won’t find them on the AH. You can get them from mob drops or your farm in Halfhill (songbell seeds).

You no longer need tools of the trade, like a skinning knife. Instead, any tools for your trade will reward you with +skill.

Miners and Herbalists might want Mist-Piercing Goggles from their engineering friends to see extra nodes that are covered by mists. Mining also doesn’t give you a chance to get gems unless you have Ancient Mining Pick, found from the bottom floor of the Greenstone Quarry cave in the SW portion of the Jade Forest as part of the Lost & Found series. I’d suggest heading over there and getting one early to use while leveling up (and the mobs are only level 84-86).

Skinners might want to keep an eye out for Blackhoof in the Valley of the Four Winds. He drops a Battle Horn that calls all nearby enemies to you. Great for mass skinning!

Fishers should look for the Ghostly Pandaren Fisherman on the north side of Cattail Lake â€" he’s part of the Lost and Found series.. Talk to him to get an Ancient Pandaren Fishing Lure that gives you extra fish. Getting your reputation up with Nat Pagle allows you to buy a mount that can walk on water.

All gatherers should keep an eye out for Korda Torros, a rare elite spawn in the Kun-Lai Summit. He drops Forager’s gloves, which substantially reduce your gathering time. Mining drops from 3.2 to 1.7, skinning and herbing from 2 to 0.5.

Has anyone managed to find out what the spawn rates are for the items in 'Lost & Found'?  Been camped in a damp cave for days.

Ranualf

they dont like you :P

Either that or they spawn at other points, there`s a thread on WoWHead about the way points for lost & found
http://www.wowhead.com/achievement=7281/lost-and-found

Some of them are not 100% accurate tho, as this is an ongoing thread, GLHF and camp that pick !

Common sense is not a gift, it`s a punishment
As you have to deal with everyone who does not have it...

Having reoccuring nightmare that I log back onto my cave just as someone runs out with the loot.  Fingers crossed for me!

:D

Brought the DK (Póstmortem) over to Mists the other week - leaving Bolden in the cave!  Found myself in the quarry on a leveling quest and it was there, gleaming brightly, right before me.  'Lost and Found' achieved - planning to post the Pick over, but wondering if the achy will be awarded to Bolden when he opens his mail?

Slush

You wont get the achievement on Bolden if it was looted on a different char. I emailed all my "Lost and Found" BoA's (the pick also) to one of my alts and noone got any acieve.
