Dungeon

Dire Maul - West

Classic-baseline Updated Sep 28, 2026

Entrance

Ruined city in central Feralas; three wing entrances around the Gordok courtyard; meeting stone outside.

Loot and attunement

Dire Maul was not in Year-1 launch content in original WoW (patch 1.3.0, Mar 2005). Forever is set in 'year 1' but Warcraft Tavern still lists all three wings. Forever's new Shen'dralas region is tied to 'the Shen'dralar, Eldre'Thalas, Dire Maul and the region's centaur tribes' - suggests Dire Maul lore relevance. Forever-wide dungeon changes (not stated per-dungeon): Blizzard says 'Every dungeon drop has been re-examined... hundreds of new drops have been added. Unique dungeon boss items are now blue quality' (Official); dungeon mob-kill XP 'brought way down', dungeon quest XP 'much, much, much higher' (Kris Zierhut, Confirmed interview); Meeting Stones do not summon, they open a Looking for Group tool (Kotaku interview).

Description

Ruined Highborne city of Eldre'Thalas. Capital Gardens; Highborne Shen'dralar and pylons.

Forever evidence

No Blizzard statement names this dungeon. Warcraft Tavern's Forever guide: 'World of Warcraft Forever brings forth all Classic dungeons, alongside 9 new' and lists it (third-party).
