Warhammer Online Dungeon and Instance Guide

In Warhammer Online a dungeon or instance is a partically instanced area where groups of players can take on challenging foes and have a chance at obtainning powerful items. Instances are a part of the PvE experience in WAR and usually contain a powerful enemy at the end. If you want some optimized leveling get this guide too.

Overview

Players will never encounter the opposing Realm in a instance. Even though most dungeons are able to be traversed by both factions, all dungeons separate players into separate instances for each Realm. Common to all instances however is that the end boss is heavily instanced so that only a small amount (usually only one 6-player group) of players can fight it at the same time, regardless of how many players were in the main area of the dungeon.

Altdorf Sewers

There are currently 3 separate Altdorf Sewers, each of a different difficulty level. The lowest of these can be entered near the Bright College. The second can be entered in one of the streets leading off the main square (in the same area as the quest given to kill skaven from the sausage vendor.). The third is to the East of the square, in between the square and the docks. If you have the quests for the 3rd wing, it should show up as a big red dot.

The Sacellum Dungeon

The Sacellum Dungeon is an instanced dungeon located within the Inevitable City. It can be entered from any of several portals located in the Sacellum, the large arena to the north of the Lost Narrows. It requires rank 9 to enter, but is geared towards higher levels, particularly 12-20. Completing wings of the dungeon help to increase The Inevitable City’s city rank.

Mount Gunbad

In many ways, Gunbad mimics an instanced dungeon as seen in many other MMORPGs, however, instead of ‘trash’ mobs to the next boss, you’ve got Public Quests. As you move inside and clear the rooms, the PQ counter goes up and when Stage II is reached, the ‘boss’ for that section of the dungeon spawns. You kill him, and you grab your bags.

The Bastion Stair

The Bastion Stair is a Chaos fortress in the The Chaos Wastes controlled by Khorne, the blood god which resembles a collossal wall with giant steps leading into the sky. It is one of the major Khornate bastions, and the site of the Rift of Rage, a powerful Chaos Portal. The Rift of Rage is threatening to corrupt the World of Warhammer with its cursed winds of magic. In WAR, the Bastion Stair serves as a difficult end-game PvE Dungeon and the source of Bloodlord armour set gear.

Warpblade Tunnels

The Warpblade Tunnels is a level 40+ six-player-instanced dungeon. The instance is broken up into two parts Upper and Lower Tunnels. Entrance to the Upper Tunnels can be found in the cellars of both the Screaming Cat and Mastiff’s End taverns of Altdorf. Entrance to the Lower Tunnels can be found in the cellars of both the Blowhole and Reikland Arms taverns of Altdorf. The bosses and monsters throughout both sections will drop Sentinel Armor and Weapons.

A full level 40 group wearing at least a few Bloodlord Armor set pieces is needed to complete the dungeon. The ideal group make up is comprised of two players of each of the three core class archetypes – tank, healer and DPS. Your progress in the dungeon will be saved for three days. Currently you can only resume dungeon crawls with other players that share the exact same boss progress, which for now can be seen when you type /lockouts.

Sigmar Crypts

Sigmar Crypts opens when Altdorf hits rank 3, I don’t know the loot drops at 3/4 but at Altdorf rank 5 each boss was dropping 3 set pieces (Sentinel Set), with a chance at dropping a belt as a bonus.

This dungeon is on 3 days lockdown. Tank should have at least 3 pieces of Annihilator/Bloodlord set to be able to tank. Second tank for guarding main tank is also crucial.

The Bloodwrought Enclave

As you enter Bloodwrought Enclave, there’s three ways you can choose to go. Left side is where the first boss is located. He drops sentinel set, and also drops the key which will open the main bosse’s chamber. Right side, is devided into three new ways, and there’s three different bosse’s. All of these bosse’s drop an item which will help you at the main-boss fight. Although there’s only two of these bosse’s who are doable, the last one is bugged and will not spawn. The items you get will decrease his attackspeed and damage dealt, the other item will decrease his toughness and increase the players damage. These items are only usable one time. Once these items are used they will last for 30 seconds, but that’s it. The bosse’s on the right side, does not drop set items. The middle way ends with the main boss: Barakus The Godslayer.

The Bilerot Burrow

Entrance to the Bilerot Burrow is found in the Inevitable City near the Monolith. It is a level 40+ six-player-instanced dungeon. The bosses and monsters throughout will drop Sentinel Armor and Weapons.

A full level 40 group wearing at least a few Bloodlord Armor set pieces is needed to complete the dungeon. The ideal group make up is comprised of two players of each of the three core class archetypes – tank, healer and DPS. Your progress in the dungeon will be saved for three days. Currently you can only resume dungeon crawls with other players that share the exact same boss progress, which for now can be seen when you type /lockouts.

The Lost Vale

Lost Vale is a green,lush outdoor area that was the home of the Everqueen, leader of the High Elves.The team considers Lost Vale one of its proudest accomplishments.Lost Vale is larger than the average dungeon - each wing here will take about two hours to finish,and in addition to the wing bosses and final end-boss,there are also three sub-bosses in each level.This is highest player-versus-environment instance in the game!
