01 / START
Before you leave
Blizzard places the Alliance start with Emissary Jacques in Southshore. Horde begins with Magus Wordeen in Tarren Mill and the key/prison tasks. Agree whether the run explores everything or targets specific quest enemies.
The level range is guidance, not a verified entrance minimum. Routes and tactics are our planning advice; current server mechanics have not been confirmed by our own gameplay tests.
Some boss-to-NPC associations remain unresolved. Their identifiers label client encounter entries, not verified NPCs.
The minimap overview supplies neither surveyed boss positions nor a guaranteed floor or unlock sequence.
02 / MAPS
Approach and maps
Area map for the approach. A reliably checked entrance coordinate is not recorded here, so no portal pin is invented.
Alterac Mountains · Forever 70790
Map view 1/1 · Terrain and building overview from current client minimap textures; overlapping rooms are not a verified floor sequence.
Boss numbers label list entries, not invented map positions. A minimap overview with overlapping rooms is not automatically a verified floor sequence.
03 / ROUTE
Plan your run
Complete the access chain before using the sewers as the meeting point.
Because there are multiple paths, regroup after branches.
Loot appropriate sentries along the way for core collections.
Include Atrexis and the Mana Elemental when their faction tasks are active.
Before the finale, check Modera or the quest log for mote, book and core objectives.
04 / BOSSESS

05 / QUESTS
Quests, prerequisites and rewards
Minimum levels concern acceptance, not combat suitability. Prerequisites show direct links, not every earlier step. Coordinates belong to the explicitly named zone. Additional class quests and follow-ups can require further travel.
Horde · minimum level 24 · #96984Heart of Disruption+
Recover the Arcane Mote in Dalaran; the Horde version returns to Magus Wordeen in Tarren Mill.
Collect The Founding of Dalaran; the reference names Rexxie Copperclutch near the sewer entrance.

No immediate equipment reward recorded in this selection.
Questie Forever reference for minimum level, giver and prerequisites; acceptance not independently tested.
No reliable quest list is recorded for this selection yet. This does not mean the dungeon has no quests.
06 / LOOT
Loot: distinguish stats from acquisition
These are selected items; quest rewards appear above. Observed drops and acquisition references are deliberately separated. Current stats do not turn an old acquisition reference into a confirmed Forever drop. No guaranteed rates or untested best-in-slot promises.
Selected attributes from client build 70862; some bonus amounts use client-budget calculations. Drop observations may come from beta recordings. Personal enchants, old tooltip values, armor and weapon DPS were not blindly copied.
Checked 7 November 2026. Current encounter and item data mainly use client 1.60.1.70862. Quests combine current client/player records with original Questie Forever reference data. Maps load directly here, with their origin and any floor-assignment limits identified beside each image.
Routes and role advice are our own planning recommendations. We have not independently tested server mechanics live. A client entry alone proves neither current encounter availability nor timing. Entries from other game variants and unrecorded NPC associations are identified in the relevant guide.
For loot, distinguish current stats from acquisition: “observed drop” is a recorded association, sometimes from beta and often a small sample. A “drop reference” is not current drop confirmation. Neither establishes a reliable drop rate. Some new German names are editorial translations; English names and identifiers retain exact identity.
Some boss-to-NPC associations remain unresolved. Their identifiers label client encounter entries, not verified NPCs.
The minimap overview supplies neither surveyed boss positions nor a guaranteed floor or unlock sequence.
