Classic dungeon in WoW Forever

Razorfen Downs

Razorfen Downs is a 38–44 dungeon in the southern Barrens where, in Classic, the quilboar have joined the Scourge under Amnennar the Coldbringer. It sits between the Armory and Cathedral wings of Scarlet Monastery on the chart and is the Kalimdor choice for that band. Horde characters reach it easily from the Barrens and Thousand Needles.

Before you go: getting there, keys and prep

The beta stopped at level 30, so nobody has run Razorfen Downs in WoW Forever yet. Each line says where it comes from: the final beta client (1.60.1.70532), Blizzard, or how it worked in Classic.

How to get there

  • Datamined Myriam Moonsinger, who takes A Host of Evil, stands near the entrance. WoW Forever Builds
  • Classic fallback In Classic the Downs are a quilboar mound where the southern Barrens meet Thousand Needles, south-east of Razorfen Kraul. Horde characters questing in the Barrens are close; Alliance characters face a long trip south. Warcraft Wiki

Prep checklist

  • Datamined Scourge of the Downs starts from Belnistrasz's Oathstone, handed to you inside, so it cannot be shared and everyone has to take it from him. WoW Forever Builds
  • Datamined An Unholy Alliance is step two of two and turns in to Varimathras in the Undercity's Royal Quarter, so Horde players should take step one before they travel. WoW Forever Builds
  • Datamined Dungeon enemies hit harder than in Classic: the client multiplies creature melee and spell damage by 1.2 in every dungeon, while their health stays the same. Expect more incoming damage per pull than old Classic numbers suggest. Daybreak Forever datamine
  • Classic fallback Collect the quests first: 3 more from the Classic list on top of the 3 in the Forever data, each with where it starts.

Bosses (Classic reference)

Unconfirmed

Classic reference — may change in WoW Forever. These are the main bosses of the original Classic dungeon. WoW Forever has not published this dungeon's encounters, so treat the list as a starting point until it is confirmed in game.

  1. Tuten'kash
  2. Mordresh Fire Eye
  3. Glutton
  4. Amnennar the Coldbringer

What Forever changed about the loot here

Unconfirmed

Forever does not publish its loot tables, and no datamine carries them, so this is not a drop list and it has no drop rates. It takes the Classic drop list for Razorfen Downs and shows which of those items the beta client gives different stats. 8 of 26 have changed in build 1.60.1.70707.

Beta values from WoW Forever client datamine (1.60.1.70707, 2026-10-30 03:47 UTC). They change between builds, and an item missing from this table is one the current build leaves alone.

Quest prep

Unconfirmed

Three quests in the Forever data, all open to both factions, and three more from the Classic list below. Myriam Moonsinger at the entrance and Belnistrasz inside cover most of it, so there is little city travel before the run.

  • Scourge of the Downs starts inside from Belnistrasz's Oathstone, so it cannot be shared: everyone takes their own from him.
  • An Unholy Alliance is step two of two and the only Forever quest here with item rewards: a choice of Skullbreaker, Nail Spitter, Zealot's Robe or the new Cultist's Chestguard, from Varimathras in the Undercity's Royal Quarter (56.4, 92.6).
  • A Host of Evil asks for eight each of three trash types, so it finishes on a full clear.

Alliance3 quests · Lv 35–37

Where to pick them up

  1. The Alliance-side Forever quests are the two shared ones at the dungeon itself; the Classic list adds Bring the Light from Stormwind.

2 quests cannot be shared: an item starts them, so everyone in the group has to loot their own. 1 quest needs an earlier quest, so a party share fails for anyone who has not done it.

Items the client ties to Razorfen Downs

Items whose name or tooltip in the final beta client points at this dungeon. Not a drop list: where each one drops is not in the client.

Boss drop tables are not published yet. The beta client datamine lists new items but not where they drop, so no boss drop is tied to this dungeon here.

The beta client adds 136 new gear items with a required level of 38–44 (drop source unknown; beta datamine, may change):
