This guide lists all 33 by level, where each entrance is, how many quests and bosses it has, and which ones to run in each level range. Checked on November 4, 2026, against Blizzard's launch notes of November 3. Dungeons above level 30 opened only at launch, so their quests and bosses are still being confirmed.
Short answer
Run Ragefire Chasm, Hall of Thanes or Ruins of Lordaeron at 13-20, Deadmines, Wailing Caverns and Shadowfang Keep at 18-30, then the new Excavation Site and City of Dalaran at 26-34. From 35 to 60, five more new dungeons join the classics: the Drowned City, Krol'dok Stronghold, Alcaz Island Prison, Timbermaw Hold and Shaper's Terrace. Pick up the dungeon quests before you go in: they no longer share.

Which dungeons to run at each level
Levels 13-20: three first dungeons instead of one

Classic gave each faction one starter dungeon. Forever adds two.
- Hall of Thanes (13-18) is the Alliance answer to Ragefire Chasm: a crypt of dwarf kings under Ironforge. Enter from the throne room, turn left and go down into Old Ironforge. Its quests come from Old Ironforge and the Gol'Golar quarry. Bosses: Faldrim Anvilmar, a fire elemental, Plunder and Durgen Dirgehammer.
- Ruins of Lordaeron (15-20) is the Forsaken fighting the Scourge in the ruins above the Undercity. It has the most quests of any low dungeon: Horde pick them up in the Tirisfal crypt, Brill, the Undercity and at
Crest of Lordaeron , a large XP reward. All its dungeon quests need level 15 since Blizzard's November 3 notes (some needed 16). Alliance players have five quests, starting withBloodied Insignia in Stormwind. Seven bosses. - Ragefire Chasm (13-18) stays the quick Horde option in Orgrimmar.
Levels 18-30: the classic middle
- Deadmines (17-26) and Wailing Caverns (15-24) are still the best experience and loot in this range.
- Shadowfang Keep (20-30) has fewer quests but good blue items.
- Blackfathom Deeps and the Stockade (24-32) are the end of this stretch.
Levels 26-34: two new dungeons in the old gap
- Excavation Site: Wetlands (26-31; Blizzard's announcement said 24-29, the game lets you in from 26): titan constructs above Whelgar's Excavation, near Dun Algaz. Fourteen quests (nine for the Alliance, five for the Horde) from Menethil Harbor, Redridge, Ashenvale and, for the Horde, Thunder Bluff. Four bosses.
- City of Dalaran (28-33): you need a sewer key first, from a quest chain with Emissary Jacques in Southshore (Alliance) or Magus Wordeen Voidglare in Tarren Mill (Horde). Nine bosses, four quests per faction.
Pro tip
Start the City of Dalaran key chain as soon as you reach Hillsbrad. Without the key you cannot enter, and groups at 28-33 will not wait while you do it.
Levels 30-45: Gnomeregan, Scarlet Monastery and the Drowned City
- Scarlet Monastery covers 28-46 in four wings, the most flexible dungeon in this range.
- Gnomeregan and Razorfen Kraul (29-38) for classic quest rewards.
- The Drowned City (35-40) is new: trolls and naga in a sunken city, entered underwater west of Grom'gol, with a storm during the final fight. Game files show seven Horde quests and none for the Alliance.
- Razorfen Downs (37-46) and the new Krol'dok Stronghold (40-45) in the Riverglades close the range.
Levels 45-60: the endgame classics and three new dungeons

- Uldaman, Zul'Farrak and Maraudon (41-57) carry you through the mid-40s and 50s.
- Alcaz Island Prison (48-53) is new, on the island off Dustwallow Marsh.
- Sunken Temple, Blackrock Depths and Dire Maul (50-60) are where you gear up; Blackrock Depths alone has 24 quests and 21 bosses.
- Timbermaw Hold (55-60, northern Azshara) and Shaper's Terrace (58-60, northern Un'Goro) are the new level 60 dungeons. Early announcements called the first one Blackmaw Hold; the game files use Timbermaw Hold.
- Scholomance, Stratholme and Upper Blackrock Spire (58-60) remain the pre-raid gear runs before December 9.
What Forever changed in dungeons
| Change | What it means for you |
|---|---|
| Some dungeon quests cannot be shared (those that give an item when you take them) | Each player picks up every quest; plan a quest route before you queue |
| Quest bonus XP cut by 50% | Dungeons are less of a leveling shortcut than in the early beta |
| Kills give 20% more XP | Clearing the whole dungeon pays more than rushing to the last boss |
| Group XP penalty by your own level | A much higher player in your group costs you less than in the early beta; as in Classic, only your own level counts |
| Worth a run for crafters | |
| Blessing of Salvation removed, tanks get more threat | Defensive Stance 80%, Bear Form 115%, |
| Some rewards lowered to green quality | Not every dungeon blue from Classic is still blue |
| No Group Finder teleport, stones do not summon | You still travel to the entrance |
| Spelunker challenges | Legacy points for running dungeons |
Where players disagree
Level ranges for the new dungeons differ between sources: Blizzard's announcement, the public roadmap and the Group Finder in the game each give their own. We use Blizzard's numbers and check them in the live game.
Where players disagree
It is not confirmed whether Classic dungeon keys and attunements work the same in Forever. Players expect most to stay, but nobody could test anything above level 30 before launch.
Do
- Pick up every dungeon quest before you go in: some of them cannot be shared.
- Start the City of Dalaran key chain early in Hillsbrad.
- Clear the whole dungeon: kills give more XP now.
- Try Hall of Thanes or Ruins of Lordaeron before 20.
- Farm Scholomance, Stratholme and Upper Blackrock Spire before raids on December 9.
Skip
- Expecting the Group Finder to teleport you.
- Running dungeons only for quest XP: it was cut by half.
- Assuming every Classic blue is still blue.
