Upon reaching Loamm, players can speak to a suspicious-looking rat named Ponzo to begin the "Get Rich Quick" quest. This quest will introduce players to Barter Bricks and reward them with one upon completion.

Once players reach Renown rank three in Loam Niffen, they will receive another quest from Ponzo, leading them to the NPC, who will give them the "Bartering 101" quest. This quest requires players to go to Valdrakken and awards them with 10 Barter Bricks when completed.

After finishing the "Bartering 101" quest, players can start participating in daily quests with the Loamm Niffen. These daily quests are an efficient way to farm Barter Bricks, as each quest rewards 10 Bricks.

Another method of obtaining Barter Bricks is through sniffseeking, a new activity introduced in Dragonflight Patch 10.1. Players can use the "sniff" ability to locate buried items and then use the "burrow" ability to dig them up.

Completing sniffseeking-related quests will grant players two to four Barter Bricks, and they may also find other quest items during the process, which reward two Barter Bricks when accomplished. Additionally, there is a small chance of obtaining Barter Bricks from treasures and rare encounters.
