Deadmines in WoW Forever: Location, Level and Bosses

Quick answer: Deadmines is a five-player dungeon located in Moonbrook, in Westfall’s southern reaches, southwest of Sentinel Hill. The game recommends it for level 16 and above.

Where is Deadmines?

Fly to Sentinel Hill. It is the closest flight path inside Westfall, and it serves the Alliance.

Open the Westfall map and find the entrance in the lower left. It sits just above the southern hills.

Head southwest from Sentinel Hill toward Moonbrook. That direction is a straight line on the map, not a set walking route.

Horde players have a longer trip. Their closest flight path in a straight line is Grom’gol in Stranglethorn, and the entrance lies northwest of it.

Who can run Deadmines

Both factions can run it. Because Deadmines is in Alliance territory, Horde groups have to travel farther through hostile land to reach the door.

Deadmines bosses

Deadmines has eight bosses, and you meet them in this order:

Rhahk’Zor
Sneed
Miner Johnson
Gilnid
Captain Greenskin
Mr. Smite
Cookie
Edwin VanCleef
