Classic WoW - Blackrock Depths (BRD)

1. Blackrock Depths Introduction

Once the capital city of the Dark Iron dwarves, this volcanic labyrinth now serves as the seat of power for Ragnaros the Firelord. Ragnaros has uncovered the secret to creating life from stone and plans to build an army of unstoppable golems to aid him in conquering the whole of Blackrock Mountain. Obsessed with defeating Nefarian and his draconic minions, Ragnaros will go to any extreme to achieve final victory.

The dungeon requires no attunements, but you can skip the lower part of the instance with a  Shadowforge Key, obtained from the spirit of Franclorn Forgewright.

Introduction:

Minimun Level: 42

Advised Level: 52-60

Number of players: 5

Faction: Contested

Although it is not especially profitable, BRD (and the rest of the Blackrock Mountain complex) is well worth at least one visit. These instances represented the original game's end-game content, and were made with a high level of quality.

There are lots of interesting features inside that once played a big role but currently get overlooked. A portal to the Molten Core is fairly deep into the instance, but it's mainly for show. A quest completed in BRD allows you to teleport into MC, negating the need to run 40 (or quite a bit less these days) raiders through the instance just to enter. BRD is also home to the Black Forge and Black Anvil, which were required to create raiding gear (primarily fire resist).

3. Best loot in Blackrock Depths

Blackrock Depths is the largest instance in the game. It is the first instance where a substantial amount of the loot would last into the post-leveling end-game.

5. Blackrock Depths : Bosses location

Blackrock Depths is very non-linear: there's many ways to go through, and because of the sheer size, you'll probably want to pick and choose the encounters rather than running the whole thing in one sitting.

Some of the more interesting things to do: the Ring of Law, a random boss in an arena, the Dark Coffer, which spawns the holder of a key to a chest in a random location, and the Grim Guzzler, a mid-instance bar that features a couple vendors and several boss encounters.

Enemy Level Range: 49-59 elites.
