How to obtain new resources WoW: Warlords of Draenor Guide

Remember to empty the chests next to the town hall. It is a small, but stable source of income.

During the development of your garrison, you will suffer a constant shortage of supplies. Below, you can see the suggested ways of obtaining them:

The garrison itself generates resources, the only thing that you need to do is collect them. Next to the town hall, there is a chest where you can claim the generated supplies. Your garrison produces 6 resources an hour so, daily it makes 144. Te crate can hold up to 500 resources so, it is important to empty it once per three days, at least.

Dispatch your followers on missions. Some of the missions available for your followers are rewarded with supplies for your garrison. While calculating your income, remember that the act of dispatching your follower on a mission, in itself, costs a small amount of supplies.

Chop down trees. As one of the buildings, you can choose the Lumber Mill. It allows you to chop down trees and exchange it for resources for your garrison. Each 10 units of lumber can be exchanged for 20 units of supplies. At first, you will only be able to perform 7 exchanges at a time. By upgrading your garrison, you can increase this number considerably. After you upgrade the Lumber Mill to tier three, you will be able to issue 21 exchange orders a day. If, in addition to that, you build the Storehouse at tier three, you will be able to perform additional 15 exchanges. Therefore, you will be able to exchange lumber 36 times a day and obtain 720 resources.

Even in your garrison, there are several inconspicuous bags (they resemble stones) with supplies inside.

Get HandyNotes. HandyNotes is an add-on, which shows you, on the map, all of the secret stashes of items, or supplies. It is surprising, how many of such stashes can be found around Draenor. In your garrison itself, there are several of them. Each chest may hold 10, up to 50 supplies. Without this mod, they are difficult to find, but the app makes it easier and faster to find them.

You can also obtain supplies in all the locations in Draenor. In Gorgronda there are lots of hidden places, where you can obtain supplies. If, in your outpost, you build, e.g. the Lumber Yard, you receive the Mechashredder, which is capable of cutting through bushes with supplies behind. In the Spires of Arak location, after you select the Smuggling Run for your outpost, you can summon a trader with supplies for sale.
