Where is Scholomance?

These are the nearest flight paths by straight-line distance. They don’t describe a walking route, so plan your path on the ground from wherever you land.
- Chillwind Camp (Alliance), Western Plaguelands, is the closest flight path in the zone. The entrance lies east of it.
- Crown Guard Tower (Alliance/Horde), Eastern Plaguelands, is the closest option for Horde players. The entrance lies southwest of it.

WoW Forever recommends starting Scholomance at level 57 and up. It is built for a group of 5 players.
The dungeon is in contested territory, so neither faction holds the area. Both Alliance and Horde can run it. Dungeons that sit in the other faction’s territory mean a longer trip through hostile land, but that doesn’t apply here.

Scholomance has 14 bosses, and Darkmaster Gandling is the final boss.
- Kirtonos
- Jandice Barov
- Rattlegore
- Marduk Blackpool

- Kormok
- Ras Frostwhisperer
- Instructor Malicia
- Doctor Theolen Krastinov

Legacy achievement
Clearing Scholomance counts toward Master Spelunker, whose in-game text reads “Complete the following dungeons.” The achievement rewards 1 Legacy Point, which you can put toward the best Legacy talents. Each dungeon on the list counts once you defeat its final boss, so Scholomance counts when Darkmaster Gandling goes down.
| Achievement | Dungeons to complete | Reward |
|---|---|---|
Master Spelunker | Razorfen Downs, Uldaman, Zul'Farrak, Maraudon, Alcaz Prison, The Temple of Atal'Hakkar, Blackrock Depths, Lower Blackrock Spire, Upper Blackrock Spire, Scholomance, Stratholme: Live, Stratholme: Dead, Dire Maul: East, Dire Maul: North, Dire Maul: West, The Shaper's Terrace, Blackmaw Hold | 1 Legacy Point |
Dungeons to run before and after
In leveling order, Stratholme (55+) and Blackmaw Hold (55-60) come before Scholomance. Shaper’s Terrace (58-60) is the next dungeon after it. The full order is in the WoW Forever dungeons by level list.
