GUIDE

Nine New Forever Dungeons: A Level-Bracket Planning Map

Last reviewed: October 9, 2026. The announced dungeon set spans early leveling through the final levels rather than concentrating all new instances at endgame.

What matters for this topic

A useful dungeon route depends on character level, travel time, available quests and equipment needs. Announced bands above the current beta cap remain planning estimates until directly playable.

Before forming a group, compare the expected reward with travel and quest preparation time. If the dungeon has not been fully tested, keep boss strategies explicitly provisional.

Practical steps

Use the following short plan as a starting point, then adjust it for your character, group and the current test build. A good decision should be repeatable and easy to review when the next update changes the rules.

  • Prioritize Hall of Thanes and Ruins of Lordaeron early.
  • Plan Excavation Site and City of Dalaran around the late twenties.
  • Reserve upper-level dungeons for launch route planning.
  • Collect instance quests before entering.

What can go wrong?

Avoid promising an exact boss drop or route if it has not been validated in the current build. After a patch, confirm information in the client instead of reusing a screenshot or price estimate from an earlier test.

Frequently asked question

Is the dungeon worth running repeatedly?

First complete your available quests and compare boss rewards against your equipment. Travel, group wait time and repeat value decide whether another clear makes sense.
