The Hall of Thanes — Quests, Bosses, Loot & XP
Location: Ironforge, Eastern Kingdoms. Level reference: 13–18. New in WoW Forever.
Available in the current Forever dungeon lineup (November 8 reference). Dungeon and quest details may change after hotfixes.
Dungeon XP and leveling approach
The November 2 Blizzard development notes increased dungeon creature-kill XP by approximately 20% compared with the preceding tuning and corrected lower-level party member XP calculations. Dungeon quests remain a major extra source of experience, so repeat-farming without quests does not tell the whole story. For most players, collecting the available dungeon quests before the run is more important than blindly repeating the same instance. Actual XP depends on level, group composition, quests completed, travel time and the current hotfixes.
Before traveling to The Hall of Thanes, collect quests that are available to your faction and check prerequisite chains. Use the lower end of the published level reference only as an initial planning point; bring a reliable party if this is your first clear.
Quest guide and chains
