Gnomework Adaptive Plating Farming Locations
Gnomework Adaptive Plating was added into the game for Everquest's 20th Anniversary celebration with the zone Gnome Memorial Mountain. Everquest's 20th Anniversary took place during the era where The Burning Lands expansion pack was the most recent expansion to the game.
