Maraudon dungeon guide

Maraudon is a level 46-55 dungeon in western Desolace, near Shadowprey Village. It has two floors and eight bosses, ending with Princess Theradras. Both factions run it for the Celebras quest chain and the rare weapons from Corruption of Earth and Seed. Since the 6 November hotfix, Zaetar's Spirit spawns again after Theradras dies.

Overview

Maraudon is a long cave dungeon over two floors. The route runs from Noxxion and Razorlash through the goblin and satyr bosses, past Celebras the Cursed and Landslide, and down to the lake where Rotgrip and Princess Theradras wait. Both sit at the bottom of the dungeon.

WoW Forever keeps the Classic bosses and abilities here. The changes are system-wide: unique boss drops are blue, every drop unlocks transmog for each eligible looter, and dungeon enemies give 50% more XP since 8 November. Most of the leveling value still comes from the quests, so pick them up before you zone in.

Tips

  • Take Legends of Maraudon, Twisted Evils and Corruption of Earth and Seed before entering. Kill XP is low and quest XP carries the run.
  • Bring poison cures for Noxxion and keep his fight clear of nearby packs.
  • Interrupt Twisted Tranquility on Celebras the Cursed to keep the fight short.
  • After Theradras dies, wait for Zaetar's Spirit and take Seed of Life before you leave.

FAQ

What level is Maraudon in WoW Forever?

Maraudon is a level 46-55 dungeon in WoW Forever. In Classic the recommended range was 45-51, so Forever stretches the top end. Go in around the middle of the range if you want to finish all the quests, including Corruption of Earth and Seed at the end.

Was the Zaetar's Spirit bug fixed?

Yes. A hotfix on 6 November made Zaetar's Spirit spawn again after Princess Theradras dies. You need the spirit for the Seed of Life quest, which sends you to Keeper Remulos in Moonglade, so do not leave the lake straight after the kill.

What do you get for killing Princess Theradras?

Corruption of Earth and Seed rewards a choice of Thrash Blade (one-hand), Resurgence Rod (two-hand staff) or Verdant Keeper's Aim (bow). All three are Rare item level 53 weapons, which makes the quest the main gear reason to finish the dungeon.
