DUNGEON · LEVEL 55-60
Blackmaw Hold
★ New in WoW Forever
A great city of Blackmaw furbolgs hidden behind Azshara's mysterious gate. The tribe is corrupted and deals with demons, and the corruption stirring in its depths is one of Forever's hooks. The designers describe it as a living place rather than a dungeon: non-linear, with many paths, lots of verticality and secrets.
How to get there
Northern Azshara, through the great stone gate in the northern mountain range (the one that in Classic showed "Timbermaw Hold", guarded by Gatekeeper Rageroar). Coordinates and requirements: not yet published. According to the developers you'll be comfortable at level 60, but you can go in a bit earlier.
What changes in Forever
New Forever dungeon behind the great stone gate in northern Azshara, which never opened in Classic and said "Timbermaw Hold" when you approached. In Forever it's a different place and a different tribe (not Felwood's Timbermaw Hold). According to the official podcast (episode 3, October 8, 2026) it's somewhat bigger than Blackrock Depths, but with a narrower level range and designed to be done in full in one long session. According to Icy Veins, its tunnels lead toward the Barrow Deeps raid.
Bosses
Blizzard hasn't published its bosses yet. We'll add them as soon as they're known.
Notable loot
This dungeon's loot hasn't been published yet. We'll add it as soon as Blizzard shows it.
Tips
- Set aside time: the designers themselves warn that it's bigger than Blackrock Depths and that you'll be there a good while.
- It will have quests inside: it's worth doing before hitting 60 to make the most of them, but don't count on leveling from 50 to 60 here.
- Furbolgs and demons: warlocks (Banish) and paladins (Exorcism) have extra tools against demons.
