Heroic Dungeon loot is ilvl 630 and can be Warforged.

Your Garrison's Inn provides daily dungeon quests with cool rewards, like .

Completing rewards the mount.

Warlords of Draenor Dungeonsdungeon pages

Maps: The center of each dungeon page contains all maps with markers for each boss. You can swap between floors via the option at the top right of the map. Clicking on the map enlarges it.

Bosses: The "Encounters" section lists all the bosses found in the instance. Clicking on a boss brings up a page specifically for that boss which contains the in-game Dungeon Journal, Encounter Tips, Normal loot, and Heroic loot. Encounter Tips are new for Warlords--they give tldr information on important things each role should remember for a boss. Super useful!

Spells: From the "Dungeon Journal" tab on a boss' page, click on a spell to see how hard it hits in each difficulty--Normal, Heroic, or Challenge Mode. Just select the difficulty right underneath the spell tooltip on the page.

Loot: The "Items" tab on the "Related" section of a Dungeons page breaks down all of the loot, split by Normal and Heroic difficulty. You can view the loot for a particular boss by visiting that boss' specific page too. On a boss' specific page, you can filter for loot that is appropriate for your specialization--just click on the class icons right above the loot lists.

NPCs, Quests, and Achievements are also tracked in the Related section.

You can reach our dungeons hub by going to Database > Instances > Level: 90 - 100.

daily questsGold Transmog WeaponsReturn to Table of ContentsChanged Low-Level Dungeons

Blackfathom Deeps has been taken over by the Twilight Hammer--neon tentacles burst from the walls, Lady Sarevess and the murloc boss Gelihast have been killed by the new inhabitants.

Razorfen Kraul has familiar Razorfen faces that have leveled up to become the new bosses. For example, Blind Hunter is now a boss that feeds on the old boss Agathelos the Raging.

The bottom section of Razorfen Kraul used to be covered in boars. In the new version, it's inaccessible and covered in tentacle vines that will pick you up and spit you back out if you jump down.

Razorfen Downs: The path leading to Amnennar is covered in toxic gas that kills even level 90s quickly. This is to force you to clear the northern part of the dungeon first. also is rocking out more.

You can read more about these changes in our Warlords of Draenor Zone Changes post.

UBRS and LBRS are being split up. LBRS will remain a low-level instance, while will have versions that level 100 players can run.

While the loot tables are being revamped for 6.0, players can acquire new versions of items with distinctive appearances.

Lord Valthalak will not be summonable in 6.0, but his loot does not have any unique models.

There are many tributes to the old UBRS in this new version: , , .

Comment by mihalkenniceComment by WinfreeIs there any animation for Frostplains Battleboar ? All I see is a horse with blue cloth under the saddle surely that not right.Comment by DogeyWOD ? i don't know what is news for next world of warcraft ? add new instance add new mounts and items no more news Garrosion not news :| sorry wow time is endComment by perculiaThat white horse has been purposely attached to a lot of mounts in the data--I assume at some point before launch, they'll fix it.Comment by GarmheimIt's great that some of the old dungeons are getting re-imagined but are these new versions of Blackfathom Deeps, Razorfen Kraul and Razorfen Downs going to be heroics for level 100 or simply new versions of the dungeons at their original levels? The news doesn't make that completely clear.

Also, though reworking these dungeons is all well and good the instances in greatest need of a revision preferably as multi-segment major raids, are Dire Maul and Maraudon. I hope that we'll see them with more challenging heroic versions one day soon.Comment by perculiaThey are still low level, only UBRS has a 100 version. I've clarified it a little in the guide now/Comment by ArtexusAnother great guide, thank you!Comment by KaelganCroman the Barbarian is a pally and not a warrior or rogue?Comment by perculiaA lot of followers have gotten class/ability tweaks in recent builds, perhaps he's incomplete atm :)Comment by Nazthori"Lord Valthalak will not be summonable in 6.0, but his loot does not have any unique models."

This is a lie. Handguards of Savagery is a unique model/skin that drops off him. GET IT NOW MAIL USERS.

If you need any help in finding someone to get said item, go to the page of Brazier of Invocation and look for my post.Comment by MonsoontSubversive Infestation is not the inn quest, but a quest from Lumber Mill's Phylarch the Evergreen.
And Aviana's Request is given by Skylord Omnuron, not Aviana herself. The daily version as well.Comment by HavsogaDo you have any plans to update the "Zone changes"-post? Not being in Beta, I still would imagine that more changes have become apparent than in Alpha, three months ago. :)Comment by Manbotno mention of Silver in Proving Grounds and all that jazz? :(Comment by perculiaI've added in a line about Proving Grounds, fixed Avianna, and added in some additional dungeon quests from the most recent build.

I would recommend checking the low-level dungeon pages to see every change, they all have updated screenshots including trash and boss pages.Comment by cephadexSkyreach has this evil wind circle that to me is proof there's always room for sadistic creativity in dungeon planning. You know how in ToT there were these annoying gusts of air that knocked you off the bridge, that weren't so much a clever challenge as just plain annoying? Well, Bliz has carefully crafted an innovation in wind-annoyance by turning it into a circle in Skyreach. You have to sort of run around the outer rim of it to get past it...Comment by CiruthoI find the new Challenge Mode rewards pretty boring, exept for the Ridable Yeti. It's a bloody Yeti. With a saddle.Comment by ServasusWOD ? i don't know what is news for next world of warcraft ? add new instance add new mounts and items no more news Garrosion not news :| sorry wow time is endComment by KanktankAs useful as bloody mail might be to ogres, I'm pretty sure the clan that runs the Slag Mines uses bloody mauls. ;)Comment by gagusftwTypo
Bloodmail Slag MinesComment by Voltindarkchaosthe dungeon gear looks slightly better than the LFR gear.
