Level: Client Dire Maul level 54; Classic planning level 60. Location: Feralas. Group: 5. Client level is a listing value, not a promise that a group at that level can finish the dungeon. Forever listing.
Before entering
Classic reference: bring Crescent Key from Pusillin, or appropriate lockpicking. Clear nearby trees before Tendris because he can draw them into combat. Lord Hel'nurath belongs to the warlock epic-mount ritual; ordinary runs cannot assume access to him. Classic preparation reference.
Layout and route
Use the western courtyard entrance. Clear every guardian around all five pylons to lower Immol'thar's prison: one in the main courtyard, two upstairs, two near the prison. Defeat Immol'thar, then visit the library for Prince Tortheldrin. Kalendris, Illyanna and optional Tsu'zee lie on the route's branches. Classic route reference.

Forever loot currently documented
The following is the complete boss-associated list recovered from the linked Playfulls page for this wing, not a complete Forever drop table. These are community loot associations checked against client item data; a client item existing does not by itself prove its drop source. Drop percentages are intentionally omitted because the source marks them unconfirmed in Forever. Live loot source.
| Boss | Linked items |
|---|---|
| Magister Kalendris | Pattern: Big Bag of Enchantment (Recipe) |
Bosses absent from this section have no recovered Forever loot association in this source. The table below supplies a separately labeled Classic reference. Dungeon-wide random drops, quest turn-in rewards and event chests are not silently counted as boss loot.
Classic loot reference
These drops are not confirmed for Forever.
Item links open separately labeled Classic reference records hosted on ForeverTome. Each boss name links to the database or guide supporting its Classic drop association. Named equipment and recipes are listed; ordinary grey/white items and broad random world-drop pools are omitted. A missing entry means the retrieved sources did not supply a dedicated table. Rare spawns and quest summons may require different access or may change in Forever.
