Disgusting Oozeling

The Disgusting Oozeling is a very odd-looking pet that actually lowers your defenses when he's around. In spite of this, or maybe because of it, this strange creature is in high demand. In fact, I've seen this sell for 500g on more than one server.

The pet can be found inside an Oozing Bag which drops from a number of different Oozes near Bloodvenom Falls in Felwood amongst other places. The drop rate of the bag isn't high, maybe 1 on 20 Oozes. Even when the bag drops, the pet will only be found in 1 in 50 bags. That's a lot of Oozes. They don't drop much of anything else. A little silver and some grey vendor items.

For these reasons I'm going to suggest you only consider farming this for gold if you have a character in the 50's who would benefit from a bit of grinding experience. They spawn fairly quickly - if you run a circle around the lake at the bottom of the falls, you will have a continuous supply.

If you fancy a change of grinding scenery, this bag also drops from the Living Decay and other Oozes in Eastern and Western Plaguelands. These are slightly higher level (mid-50's) so you can grind these right up to your late 50's.

Apart from the pet, the bags will contain some sort of useful item, often a mana or health potion, or a minor green item with some value.

There used to be a useful bug with this bag in that it would reset the contents whenever it was mailed. All you had to do was mail the bag between alts a few times to get the contents you wanted. Unfortunately this was fixed a few months ago. Around this time the pet went from a selling price of 100 gold to 500 gold.
