Entering

  • 5 players · from level 10

No lockout on the beta so far: groups run dungeons back to back. The tables also carry 10 players · daily lockout (also in the Classic Era client); the beta has not shown a way into it.

Bosses · 8

  1. Lady Anacondra Search Wowhead ↗
  2. Lord Cobrahn Search Wowhead ↗
  3. Kresh Search Wowhead ↗
  4. Lord Pythas Search Wowhead ↗
  5. Skum Search Wowhead ↗
  6. Lord Serpentis Search Wowhead ↗
  7. Verdan the Everliving Search Wowhead ↗
  8. Mutanus the Devourer Search Wowhead ↗

The client's encounter rows carry no creature id, so each boss links to a search of Wowhead's Classic database until the beta names or loots it.

What the beta server told the client about each quest that sends you into Wailing Caverns: the task, its objectives, who hands it out and who takes it in where the quest's own wording or the beta log names them, and the rewards, with item names, money and experience from the client tables. ★ marks quests that did not exist in Classic Era; Wowhead has no page for those yet. Every quest also has a page of its own.
