DUNGEON · LEVEL 25-31

Blackfathom Deeps

The ruins of an ancient temple of Elune, half sunk on the Ashenvale coast, are now a refuge for naga, satyrs and the Twilight's Hammer cult, which worships Aku'mai, a beast of the Old Gods. A good part of the route is underwater: islands, flooded corridors and submerged rooms where bosses and quest items are hidden. It's a large, somewhat slow dungeon that rewards knowing the way.

Ashenvale, in the northwest: The Zoram Strand, in sunken elven ruins on the coast (14.5, 14.6 according to Warcraft Tavern); you have to dive through the pool at the back and cross a narrow cave with elite naga to reach the portal. No key. Accessible to both factions (the Horde has Zoram'gar nearby).
