Location and Entrance

Find the portal around 38.7, 19.5 in Tanaris. Gadgetzan's quest givers stand near 51, 27, so the portal is northwest of town. Pick up the Gadgetzan quests first, because they sit on your way.Reported, press or datamine, not confirmedSource: Kami Labs: Zul'Farrak, Where the entrance is and The quests; checked Nov 8, 2026. The Zul'Farrak quest guide lists every pickup.

Most of the dungeon is outdoors, so WOWF.IO says you can ride mounts inside. That shortens the walk between boss areas.Reported, press or datamine, not confirmedSource: WOWF.IO: Zul'Farrak guide, Before you go; checked Nov 8, 2026.

Levels and the Door

Plan around levels 44 to 54. Sources disagree on both the range and the entry level, so test the door before you commit a group.Reported, press or datamine, not confirmedSource: ForeverChanges: Zul'Farrak, Before you go; WOWF.IO: Zul'Farrak, header; WOWF.IO: Zul'Farrak guide, Before you go; Kami Labs: Zul'Farrak, Getting in; checked Nov 8, 2026.

ForeverChanges says Classic let players in from level 35 and that Forever's minimum is not confirmed. Kami Labs reports no lockout on the beta at the time, so you could rerun at once.

All boss notes below come from WOWF.IO's route.Reported, press or datamine, not confirmedSource: WOWF.IO: Zul'Farrak guide, stops 1 to 10; checked Nov 8, 2026.

Theka the Martyr

Theka casts Fevered Plague, so dispel it. At 30% health, Theka Transform makes him immune to Physical and Shadow damage. Stun him before it goes off, or finish him with other schools of magic. He drops the First Mosh'aru Tablet, and a tablet nearby completes the Horde quest The Spider God.

Antu'sul

Antu'sul waits in the cave past the cracked wall on the right as you enter Theka's room. Broodlings rush in when the fight starts, and at 75% and 25% health he calls more adds with Antu'sul's Minion. Break Earthgrab Totem and Healing Ward right away, and interrupt Healing Wave of Antu'sul at 20%. WOWF.IO says it is easier to pull him out of the cave.

Witch Doctor Zum'rah

Zum'rah stands in the graveyard and stays neutral until you get close. Ward of Zum'rah keeps raising skeletons, so destroy the totem first and interrupt Shadow Bolt and Shadow Bolt Volley. Once the fight starts he raises zombies from the graves, so clear them with area damage.

The Pyramid Stairs Event

Kill the Sandfury Executioner on top of the pyramid and use the Executioner's Key to open the cages of Sergeant Bly and his crew. Waves of trolls then climb the stairs, so hold the top with Bly's group.

Nekrum Gutchewer and Shadowpriest Sezz'ziz arrive together as the last wave. Sezz'ziz keeps Nekrum up with Heal and Renew, so interrupt the heals and kill Nekrum first. Healers should stand far back to stay out of Psychic Scream, and someone should dispel Nekrum's Fevered Plague.

Sergeant Bly and Weegli Blastfuse

Talk to Weegli Blastfuse first and finish that conversation before you speak to Bly, so the goblin goes off to blow open the upper door. If you do not, the door to Chief Ukorz stays shut. Talking to Bly then turns his crew hostile. Kill the healer, Murta Grimgut, first. Bly drops the Divino-matic Rod.

Chief Ukorz Sandscalp

Ukorz is at the top behind the blasted door, with Ruuzlu beside him. Wide Slash and Cleave hit everything in front, so the tank faces him toward the wall. He enrages at 60% health and calls Sandfury Slaves at 30%. Kill his companion first.

Hydromancer Velratha

Velratha is by the pool where Gahz'rilla is summoned. She casts Shadow Bolt Volley and Healing Wave at 50% health, so interrupt the heal and break Ward of Zum'rah right away. She drops the Second Mosh'aru Tablet and the Tiara of the Deep.

Gahz'rilla

Strike the gong at the end of the pool with the Mallet of Zul'Farrak and he rises from the water. Freeze Solid locks one player in ice, Icicle slows, and Gahz'rilla Slam throws everyone nearby into the air. The fall hurts, so fight in the water or close to a wall. He drops Gahz'rilla's Electrified Scale.

To make the mallet, use the Sacred Mallet from the Altar of Zul in The Hinterlands on the altar at the top of Jintha'Alor.Reported, press or datamine, not confirmedSource: WOWF.IO: Zul'Farrak guide, Before you go; checked Nov 8, 2026.

Rare Spawns

ForeverChanges lists three rares, all level 45: Zerillis, Dustwraith and Sandarr Dunereaver. Its listed drops are Sandstalker Ankleguards from Zerillis and Desertwalker Cane from Dustwraith, with Classic chances.Reported, press or datamine, not confirmedSource: ForeverChanges: Zul'Farrak, Bosses and loot; checked Nov 8, 2026.

Zul'Farrak Loot and Drop Rates

Kami Labs measured these on the Forever beta, with samples from 35 to 106 kills per boss. An asterisk marks items Kami added from its October 9 beta survey. ForeverChanges, built from October 3 sightings, says nobody had seen these drops yet, so treat this as beta data and check tooltips in game.Reported, press or datamine, not confirmedSource: Kami Labs: Zul'Farrak, The bosses, in order; ForeverChanges: Zul'Farrak, Bosses and loot; checked Nov 8, 2026.

Kami also measured quest items: First Mosh'aru Tablet 57.1% and Troll Temper 15.9% from Theka the Martyr. ForeverChanges lists Sang'thraze and Jang'thraze at about 1% in Classic, while Kami's beta shows them higher, so this is a place where the two sources differ.

What Changed in Forever

Kami Labs marks Zul'Farrak as changed, because Classic allowed up to 10 players as a raid group and Forever caps entry at five.Reported, press or datamine, not confirmedSource: Kami Labs: Zul'Farrak, What changed from Classic; checked Nov 8, 2026. The client's encounter names and order match Classic Era.

Item stats and boss numbers are not settled. Those live on the server, and the sites we checked still show Classic values for some of them. The dungeon index shows nearby options, and our RestedXP Forever guide and Zygor guide cover the questing around Tanaris.
