Scarlet Monastery

Four wings of the Scarlet Crusade. You'll be back here for 15 levels.

Graveyard, Library, Armory and Cathedral, each its own short dungeon. Start in the Graveyard at about 30 and finish with Mograine and Whitemane in the Cathedral.

What's different in Forever

Same fights as Classic

In WoW Forever the bosses here keep their Classic levels and abilities. The loot has been reworked: many drops have new Forever stats, so read the tooltip.

Quest XP

Dungeon quests below level 40 pay extra XP in Forever (the 1 October build halved the bonus, but it's still there). From level 40 on, most pay their Classic XP.

Mob XP

Dungeon mobs give about a third of their Classic XP. If anyone in the group is far above the mobs' level, nobody gets XP for those kills.

Group Finder

It's a listing board, not a queue, and meeting stones don't summon. A Warlock and two others can cast Ritual of Summoning at the stone.

Buster's tip

Let Bonkr Compass+ call your buttons

Boss fights go smoother when you're not thinking about your rotation. Build one on the portal's Rotations page and Compass+ shows the next button to press, so you can watch the floor instead.

Loot lists come from WoW Forever's own game data, through the open-source WoW Forever simulator, and are checked for changes every week (last checked 2026-11-09). "New" and "Changed" tags show for 30 days. Hover an item for its WoW Forever stats; click it for Wowhead, which shows Classic's numbers.
