Click here to check out the detailed Blackrock Depths Strategy Guide

The first run focuses on the lower portion of Blackrock Depths, where you will start completing quests and eventually forging the Shadowforge Key, necessary to open the upper portions of the dungeon.

The second part should focus on the upper areas of Blackrock Depths that are opened with the Shadowforge Key, and the efforts this time are focused on killing Emperor Dagran Thaurissan, the final boss in the dungeon.

A third type of run that people usually do in Blackrock Depths is the Lava Run, in which players skip a major portion of the instance to reach the upper ends of Blackrock Depths. These runs are usually done to either quickly complete the Molten Core attunement quest, Attunement to the Core, or to smelt Dark Iron Bars within the Black Forge, the only place where you can create this special ore bar.

And I genuinely mean that, it's not hyperbole. There's so much to see and explore and it's incredibly well structured. Back in the day a lot of people disliked it, but a lot of people also didn't realize that the dungeon wasn't meant to be done all at once. It was two dungeons in one, and the extended level range and the "checkpoint" of acquiring the Shadowforge key reinforced that.Comment by feffe79Step 1.) Clear your day's schedule

With us knowing the place perfectly, and seriously over gearing the place (though I only actively raided at the time) it was at least a 3-4 hour run every week.

And we loved every minute of it each time.Comment by Cecilea
