The City of Dalaran Map and Recommended Route (Surface)

City of Dalaran Overview

City of Dalaran is a new dungeon in WoW Forever. Proudly sitting behind a opaque, amethyst coloured dome, arcane magics run amok in this well-known city.

This dungeon is designed for levels 28 - 33 and, whilst it can be completed towards the lower end of that range, having a party around level 30 makes the dungeon considerably more manageable.

Boss Strategy

Arcane Anomaly

Strategy

Main mechanic: Focal Blast — a dangerous arcane beam fired in a straight line for several seconds.

  • Tank: Keep the boss positioned safely.
  • DPS: Continue attacking between casts without standing in the beam.
  • Healer: Watch for anyone caught by the blast.

Fel Ancient

Strategy

Main mechanics: Fel Timbers creates damaging green ground effects; Entangle roots players and deals damage over time.

Healer: Pay attention to rooted players, especially if they are caught in a ground effect.

Tank and DPS: Move out the green fumes. Use root-removal abilities where possible.

Mana Devourer

Strategy

Mechanics: Debilitate damages everyone nearby and drains mana; Drain Vitality damages the current target and continues ticking.

Healer: Prepare for group-wide damage and ongoing damage on the tank.

Tank: Maintain defensive cooldowns if incoming damage becomes heavy.

DPS: Kill the boss efficiently, as the mana drain can make a prolonged fight harder.

Unstable Sentinel

Strategy

Main mechanic: Malfunction — after a short cast, it damages everyone within 25 yards repeatedly for several seconds.

Healer: Stay more than 25 yards away where possible.

DPS: Ranged keep distance, Melee run out when Malfunction begins to cast.

Shade of the Archmage

Strategy

Main mechanics: Arcane Bolt, Arcane Explosion, Bounding Mana, and a mana cycle that ends in Mass Polymorph followed by Evocation. Spread out so Bounding Mana is less likely to catch multiple players. Don't stand between its target and the boss.

Tank: Handle the heavy Arcane Bolt damage and move out of Arcane Explosion.

DPS: Melee move out of Arcane Explosion.

Healer: Stay at range; use the Mass Polymorph/Evocation window carefully.

Lyn the Ignored

Strategy

Main mechanics: Shadow Bolt Volley, Curse of Thorns, and summoned skeletons.

Healer: Prepare for periodic group-wide Shadow damage.

DPS: Kill skeletons and dispel Curse of Thorns if possible. Melee DPS beware of damage during Curse of Thorns.

Tank: Keep Lyn positioned and control the adds.

Atrexis the Grave Knight

Strategy

Main mechanics: Summons skeletons, hits the tank hard, and periodically disarms the tank.

Tank: Keep the boss controlled; be ready for the disarm.

DPS: Kill the skeleton adds as they appear. Don't use heavy AoE before the tank establishes threat.

Healer: Keep the tank healthy through his melee attacks


Arcanic Enigma

Strategy

Main mechanics: 2x Mana Phantom adds are with Arcanic Enigma at the start of the fight. You should burn this down as quickly as possible; they have a mana burn that is very heavy on the target,

  • Tank: Keep the boss controlled and tank and spank. You may get cc'd and need a dispel thrown your way!
  • DPS: The boss continuously spawns Arcane Manalings during the encounter. THhey should be cleaved down along with the other entities.
  • Healer: Stay away from the rest of the group as the boss with cast a large AOE silence on targets close by.
