City of Dalaran
The Kirin Tor hid the restoration of Dalaran behind a barrier after the Third War. The barrier is down. Enchantments, arcane constructs and demonic energy run loose through nine encounters, and both factions need a short attunement quest to enter through the sewers.
What's going on here
The Kirin Tor raised a barrier to hide the city's restoration after the Third War. Now the barrier is down and the city's enchantments, arcane constructs and demonic energy have run wild. Since the October 15 build, Horde players are attacked on sight in the city, but the dungeon itself stays open to them.
Getting there and attunement
Dalaran sits in the Alterac Mountains. After the attunement quest, your group enters through the sewers.
Alliance: take An Alarming Request from Emissary Jacques in Southshore. Horde: take Key to the City and Prison Break-In from Magus Wordeen Voidglare in Tarren Mill. Finish the chain and the sewer entrance opens for your group.
Recommended group
One tank, one healer, three damage dealers. Bring at least one interrupt and one crowd-control option.

Outfit tips
- Do the attunement quest as a group so everyone is keyed at once; it is one trip to Southshore or Tarren Mill.
- Mana Devourer punishes casters who stand still. Melee, pick up the slack.
- Counterspell, Kick and Earth Shock matter: the arcane constructs cast a lot.
- Mages get Teleport: Dalaran in Forever. Ask one to port the group here.
