Dun Morogh levelling guide (levels 1–12) for WoW Forever
Dwarves and Gnomes wake up in Coldridge Valley, a frozen basin of trolls and wildlife.
| Levels | Faction | Continent | Next zones |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1–12 |  Alliance |
Eastern Kingdoms | Loch Modan |
When to level here
- The beta route keeps Dwarves and Gnomes here until about 12, then sends them east through the pass to Loch Modan.
What's new in Forever
- The big Forever addition is the Hall of Thanes, a new dungeon beneath Ironforge.
- Its 13–20 bracket puts it right at the point where you move into Loch Modan.
- Beta builds also sped up respawns for the snow leopards and the Shimmer Ridge trolls, and fixed the rifle drop on Treacherous Cold.
