The level band and its Week 1 neighbor
Blizzard's September 15 forum post gives Hall of Thanes a level bracket of 13 to 18. Its beta announcement lists it in Week 1 alongside Ruins of Lordaeron.
| Week 1 dungeon | Published level bracket |
|---|---|
| Hall of Thanes | 13 to 18 |
| Ruins of Lordaeron | 15 to 20 |
The community comparison below places the new brackets beside Classic dungeons. Its Classic ranges are community estimates, not Blizzard brackets.

The ranges overlap from levels 15 to 18, based on Blizzard's posted endpoints. That is a comparison of the listed brackets, not a published dungeon order. Kaivax's post gives a level band, not an entry rule that bars characters below 13 or above 18. Blizzard's full WoW Forever dungeons guide covers the other announced instances, while the leveling zones guide puts these brackets beside outdoor leveling ranges.

Dungeon XP and quest items
The XP note is about dungeons generally, not a Hall-specific reward table. In an interview, Kris Zierhut said dungeon monster XP was brought down substantially while dungeon quest XP rose sharply. That is reported design direction, and the interview gives no numeric payout for this instance. See the WoW Forever dungeon XP guide for the broader change and its limits.
Blizzard's September 24 beta notes also describe a fix for several dungeon quests that could be shared to give the receiving player a quest item. The note does not identify those quests or say that one belongs to Hall of Thanes, so it is not evidence of a Hall-specific quest mechanic.
Hall-specific details the sources leave open
Kaivax's forum post is a nine-row bracket table, and Blizzard's beta announcement is a Week 1 content list. Neither cited passage gives a Hall boss roster, quest names, group-size rule, entrance coordinates, or encounter order. This guide leaves those details out instead of treating a similar Classic dungeon as confirmation for Forever.
