Your first dungeon in WoW Forever depends on your faction: Horde starts in Ragefire Chasm, Alliance in the Hall of Thanes. From there the dungeon levels climb in brackets up to The Shaper's Terrace at 58–60, the last of the nine new dungeons.

The first dungeon for each faction

Ragefire Chasm is the Horde's first dungeon, with quests available from level 9. The Hall of Thanes is the Alliance's first, for levels 13 to 18. The Ruins of Lordaeron, for levels 15 to 20, is the first new dungeon in Horde territory.

The new dungeons in the climb

Forever adds nine new dungeons spread across the whole climb. Their ranges are the ones Blizzard published on 14 September 2026.

  • Hall of Thanes (13–18)
  • Ruins of Lordaeron (15–20)
  • Excavation Site (26–31)
  • City of Dalaran (28–33)
  • The Drowned City (35–40)
  • Krol'dok Stronghold (40–45)
  • Alcaz Prison (48–53)
  • Blackmaw Hold (55–60)
  • The Shaper's Terrace (58–60)

Mid and high level brackets

Scarlet Monastery runs from 26 to 45 across its four wings. Razorfen Downs is 35–44, and Uldaman is 38–53. Blackrock Depths is 48–60, Lower Blackrock Spire is 52–60, and The Shaper's Terrace is 58–60. Dire Maul, Scholomance and Stratholme sit in the same 50–60 stretch of the climb.

What the beta currently covers

The beta reaches level 30 since October 1 and ends on October 21; from 30 to 60 you play from launch, on November 4. Excavation Site: Wetlands (26–31) was added with the Week 3 beta update, alongside Razorfen Downs (25+) and Uldaman (30+). Dungeon quests now reward 50% less extra experience beyond normal quest values.

If you want the runs handled for you, Epiccarry's WoW Forever Dungeons service clears instances with a full group, and the Dungeon Bundle covers every dungeon your character qualifies for in one order. Dungeon leveling is a repeatable alternative to questing rather than the fastest grind, as our dungeon XP buff breakdown explains.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which dungeons are in WoW Forever?

The dungeons of Classic, from Ragefire Chasm to Upper Blackrock Spire, plus nine new ones.

Do dungeon quests still give a lot of experience?

Yes, more than before. Blizzard lowered the experience from monsters in dungeons and raised it for dungeon quests, so a first run with all its quests pays off most. Since the beta build of 1 October, that extra experience from dungeon quests is 50% lower.

Can you level from 30 to 60 in the beta?

No. The beta reaches level 30 since October 1 and ends on October 21.
