Welcome to the Unofficial World of Warcraft Basin Wiki!

Much of the information dates before the release of any of the expansions: there is some mention of The Burning Crusade (released 16 January 2007), little mention of Wrath of the Lich King (released 13 November 2008) and none at all of Cataclysm (released 7 December 2010). Consequently, this section really only serves as a historical archive.

Instance Guides

First off why go to an instance at all? Instances are much more difficult than soloing and are the best place to experience group play. It can be very very fun to have a good group humming through an instance exploring and experiencing the adventure. There is also the loot of course.

A short guide to the instances can be found in the Instance Guide Summary.

The level ranges associated with the instance are the level ranges of the elite mobs found inside from lowest to highest. Beware, Thottbot is wrong, often. I've updated the list to include Tiers of gear and may switch the level ranges to iLvls of gear dropped for the other instances. --Jini
