Here's how powerful you need to be for each WoW Classic dungeon

WoW Classic dungeons become available once you’ve reached the magical teen levels of Blizzard's retro MMO. All offer a change of pace from leveling in World of Warcraft, and the chance of better gear upgrades that will last you quite a few levels, and some flavor items for fun. 

In a game where transmogrification of gear doesn’t exist, it’s also worth noting that some of the armor from these dungeons is quite attractive, particularly if you wear leather. Even better—and unlike retail World of Warcraft—you’re not limited to five people in most of these instances. Most of these dungeons allow up to ten people, with the exceptions being Blackrock Depths, Stratholme, and Scholomance, which all enforce the five-player cap.

Bringing extra people makes them easier to complete too, as they don’t scale to group size. So, with your team assembled, here are the levels you need to be for each WoW Classic dungeon, including subsequent, Classic, expansions.

How World of Warcraft dungeons work

If you're a real beginner to MMOs, you'll be playing as one of three roles: tank, healer, and DPS. Tanks attract and absorb damage with their beefy health bars, healers keep the team alive, and DPS players deliver the damage. If you're summer green enough not to have known that before reading, we suggest you go DPS: you'll get the least aggro from other team members that way. Take three DPS, one healer, and one tank, and you're good to go.
