WoW Classic Burning Crusade: These instances are back!

With WoW Classic Burning Crusade, the MMORPG has received its first official expansion, which reminds Blizzard fans of the "old days" shortly after Vanilla. Thus, all 15 instances of yesteryear return in their original form. In this guide you will learn:

Which instances await you in WoW Classic TBC
In which area you will find the dungeons
For which level the instances are suitable

Hellfire Citadel

Shortly after you arrive in Outland, Hellfire Citadel awaits you on Hellfire Peninsula. Inside, there are three instances that you can complete. Hellfire Bulwark is your first port of call. It is the easiest dungeon and you can enter it at level 60 without hesitation. However, have damage dealers with you who can apply a bit of CC, otherwise some mob groups can get pretty crunchy.

Where is the instance? Hellfire Peninsula
For what level? 60-62 (at least 57)

The Blood Cauldron

Immediately after Hellfire Peninsula, you can continue with the Blood Cauldron. This instance is one entrance further and only minimally harder than the first dungeon.

Where is the instance? Hellfire Peninsula
For what level? 61-63 (at least 58)

The Shattered Halls

This instance from WoW Classic Burning Crusade is also located in Hellfire Citadel, but you should wait until you enter it. Although you can enter at level 65, you'll be knocked off your feet in no time - especially if you're a tank! If your party is strong enough, they can drag you along as a low-DD, but as a tank or healer, you'd better bring the recommended level.

Where is the instance? Hellfire Peninsula
For what level? 69-70 (at least 65)

Lizard Cauldron

The slave quarters

After the Hellfire Peninsula, most people head to the Zangar Marshes. There, the Lizard Cauldron awaits you, where there are not only three dungeons, but also a raid instance. First, the Lizard Cauldron takes you to the slave quarters. With three bosses, this instance is easy to complete.

Where is the instance? Zangarmarsh
For what level? 62-64 (at least 59)

The Deep Swamp

We continue in the Deep Swamp, where four bosses are already waiting for you. Especially for players with orientation problems, this instance can be a bit of a challenge. So always keep an eye on the map - or leave it to an experienced player.

Where is the instance? Zangarmarschen
For which level? 63-65 (at least 60)

The Steam Chamber

The Steam Chamber is the last dungeon in the Lizard Cauldron. As with Hellfire Citadel, it is recommended that you only complete this instance at level 70 (or just before). For a level 65 player, it can be crunchy.

Where is the instance? Zangarmarsh
For which level? 68-70 (at least 65)

Auchindoun

Managruf

In the ruins of Auchindoun, in the middle of the forests of Terokkar, there are four instances that you want to fight in WoW Classic Burning Crusade. The first one to enter is the Mana Call, where mainly elementals are waiting for you. Nexus Prince Shaffar, the final boss, will do everything to make you bite the dust as often as possible.

Where is the instance? Forests of Terokkar
For what level? 64-66 (at least 61)

Auchenaikrypta

Short and sweet - this is the Auchena Crypt. There are only two bosses inside the instance, so you will complete it comparatively quickly.

Where is the instance? Forests of Terokkar
For what level? 65-67 (at least 62)

Sethekkhallen

Again, just two bosses that want to chase you out of their abode. However, it can't hurt to play this dungeon several times, because with a bit of luck you'll get the Raven Lord's reins here - a riding mount!

Where is the instance? Forests of Terokkar
For what level? 67-68 (at least 63)

Shadow Labyrinth

Once you reach the highest level in WoW Classic Burning Crusade, you need to return to the ruins of Auchindoun and visit the Shadow Maze. Four bosses are waiting for you there. Murmur is the last to do the honors.

Where is the instance? Forests of Terokkar
For which level? 69-70 (at least 65)

Caves of Time

Foothills of the Ancient Hills

The Caves of Time will not only take you to the Hyjal Peak raid instance, but you will also be able to play through two classic dungeons. The first is the Foothills of the Ancient Hills, where three bosses await you. Again, it's not so easy to find the entrance in the Caves of Time (I still can't remember).

Where is the instance? Tanaris
For which level? 66-68 (at least 66)

The Black Morass

Pack your favorite mount, because in this instance you can show it off. Because in front of each of the three bosses, there are several waves of enemies waiting for you to kill. However, they appear at different locations on the map. So it's best to have your mount on a shortcut so that you can get to the spawn point of the portals quickly enough.

Where is the instance? Tanaris
For which level? 68-70 (at least 68)

Fortress of Storms

The Mechanar

With the Fortress of Storms you have arrived at the end content. You can only enter the three instances when you are level 70. Why? Because you can't get to the entrance without flying mounts. And you can only fly in Outland at the highest level. In return, three bosses await you in the first of the three dungeons.

Where is the instance? Netherstorm
For which level? 70 (at least 70)

The Botanica

There are far more in the second instance: Five bosses will show you that you have no business in Die Botanika.

Where is the instance? Netherstorm
For which level? 70

The Arkatraz

In The Arkatraz, there are still four bosses that welcome you to the instance - at least until you meet them. Then the hospitality is over in no time.

Where is the instance? Netherstorm
For which level? 70

Isle of Quel'Danas

Terrace of Magisters

The Isle of Quel'Danas with its single dungeon Terrace of Magisters was already added later in Burning Crusade. Since the Classic version of Burning Crusade is also divided into phases, this instance will only join the content with the final fifth phase. When that will be is still unclear.

Where is the instance? Isle of Quel'Danas
For what level? 70 (at least 65)
