Located in the Valley of Spears, central west Desolace.

Comment by evoker

Many guilds that raid the Temple of Ahn'Qiraj come to Maraudon to get some Nature Resistance gear. Especially the trinket from Noxxion is a very good way to boost your Nature Resistance.

Comment by Cybersqu

For those who don't have the entire Desolace map revealed, Maraudon is located @ (28,62).

dude i totally hate mara now i have done it about 5 times in the past 2 days just for tht bloody ring then it finally dropped :) but a £$%!ing stupid troll needed and won it :(

Comment by 53349

Despite what Blizzard's new LFG tool suggests, Maraudon does not come before Zul'Farrak level-wise. So if you're looking at your LFG tool trying to figure out where to go next, you should probably do ZF a little before heading here.

WHere can you find the mob "Rock Borer" I have been looking everywhere (apperently not) and I cant find them, anyone that knows?

Comment by 56506

The rock borer should be before the instance, try the purple side.

I find Mara to be harder than it seems. The lvl range is what it is, but some of the mobs are real tough. Some will knock you down, some poison you without end, some hit you multiple times surprisingly rapidly, etc.

Take care in Mara. IMO, ZF is -without doubt-, before Mara in difficulty.

Comment by 52282

what is a good level for this place?

Comment by 99256

Gunna try and solo this as my level 52 BM hunter, as PUGs are awful and unreliable, but this place has some nice loot for a hunter and it's more fun to instance rather than farm for gold to buy new kit =)

Btw, I don't anticipate success.

EDIT - I tried, I failed. The mobs hit HARD and there are a lot of them, clustered close. It was a fairly close call, but I eventually gave up as it was taking far too long and I was dying/having to heal + feign death far too much. I don't think this is soloable until level 60 or so.

Comment by 71213

this instance is great for casters. the loot that drops is great.

Comment by 98540

Yeah. Wow lets you go in LFG as low as 40.

It's not a 40 instance by any stretch of the imagination.

Comment by 116707

You should easily do this instance at lvl 44 - i did BEFORE 2.3. Now, it's even easier for lower levels to do it. Last night a lvl 41 was in our group.

Comment by 42230

Problems getting mining up?
Are you tired of looking for Mithril rocks which others have mined?
Are you level 60+?`

What do you do?
Enter from the middle With your Rod. Mine the 3-4 Mines which is inside.
100% spawned for every instance reset. No one to compete with.
(this is how the farmers do it btw, think in the path of the goldfarmer to become rich)

Comment by Cross88

In my opinion, Maraudon is one of the most beautiful instances in Azeroth. The wide variety of environments, from crystal caverns to lush oases, make this one of my favorite places to visit.

Comment by 164542

So, how do you enter trough the "inner" entrance, or I got something mixed up? :)

Comment by 178513

Definitely one of the more aesthetically pleasing instances, especially Inner Maraudon. If you're doing everything, get ready for a long instance. Haven't done the instance recently in full, but I think that clearing everything (purple, orange and inner) would require something like 3-3.5 hours, depending on wipes, dps, level, the whole lot.

The giants in Inner Maraudon are definitely a check if your gear of healer / tank is somewhat up to scratch. At 200+ damage a hit and two mobs at the same time, an unlucky string could definitely kill some tanks or leave some healers dry on mana.

A hint to those new: When you port into Inner Maraudon (recogniseable by the light-green colouring and silencing dinos) and first see large giants, wait and get rid of the two Elemental patrols running around. One's coming from up, to Landslide, and the others are coming down from somewhere. You don't want them to add.

Comment by 202997

This is a great place to farm Large Radiant Shards and Small Brilliant Shards. If you complete the quest for the Scepter of Celebras you can easily clear Landslide, Princess, Rotgrip and Grizzlock in under 15 mins @ 70. Shard the drops, profit, rinse and repeat.

Comment by 206437

Incase anyone is wondering what level you have to be to run someone thru. I did it with a 63 warrior and myself(45 rogue) and we had some problems but we avoided most of the mobs and did it in 20 mins! At bosses he had like 10% hp left. He died on rotgrip because it hits with 500 every hit but I managed to take him out with evasion. Rogue and High level definally can do this instance(without trash mobs) in under 20 mins.

Good lucK! :)

Comment by YuriElite

The least visited instance in WoW, sorry but it's true, reason is because it's in the middle of nowhere and usually people don't have the flightpath to Desolace.

Comment by 126544

this instance looks really cool but it also one of the larger instances you will encounter.
It will take you quite a bit of time unless one of your group members has a scepter of celebras which allows you to skip the early parts. I recommend that you run this at least once, even if its solo, as it is definitely one of the more amazing areas.

Comment by 174938

big instances

Comment by flymolo21

solo as 65 death knight. Way to easy. Did it for fun.

Comment by 117449

Doable with 3 people at lv 45~. Beautiful place with good loot. Takes a bit of time but worth it.

Comment by magge97

If you look at the place, its huge! Its almost like a mini-raid.

Comment by 291730

I completed this instance with my part last night;
Us being Me, A 44 BM Hunter
A 49 Feral Druid (dinged 50 during the run)
A 50 Mage (not sure what spec)
A 47 Holy Preist
and A 49 Warrior (Not sure what spec)

This was my first time running the instance, I have heard many bad things about it. And it's easy to understand why, It's in desolace, and alot of people all out skip questing in here to go to stranglethorn, and if you don't have the Shadowprey (Horde) or Nijel's (Alli) flightpath, it's a pain to get to. second; parts can be hard. Paticularly, the Creeping Sludge have a killer AOE, our entire group died atleast once, but I was able to pick them off by kiting (not hard to do, they move slowly) While the preist was helping me. Finally, and most importantly; it's really, really long to do as a whole. When you look at all the instances withing this level range, (the longest one people of this level are probably used to is Ulda, <correct me if i'm wrong> Which is only 1-2 hours at the most) With our group, starting on the orange side; killing every boss but still skipping a few trash mobs, it took us around 4 hours. Mind you; mabye this is a good thing, because much longer, hairier instances like BRD are just up the line

But despite these factors, i really, really liked it. My only complaint was that it was a little bit too linear for my taste. I like some interactiveness in an intance (Think Uldaman). That may be unrealistic to expect from an instance of this level; but I complain. Don't let the length of this instance, nor the location turn you away; I reccomend doing orange one day and purple the next if possiblt though; like I said, it is very, very long.

Comment by 184474

Took 48 min to run a alt through with a 80 ret pally, put aside a good hour with a good group, the place is very large and it is best to use the map provided on this page if you get lost.

Comment by 295476

How do u get to the boss? i got stuck at the bottom of a waterfall that should have been by the boss and couldnt find the way up.

Comment by Elireyn

Just went in to check what has happened to the Portal to Inner Maraudon, now that they've changed Scepter of Celebras, and it seems that the portal's just open by default, there's nothing you must do to open it.
In other words, anyone can skip the first half of the instance now. :/

Comment by 208845

The elder coin is in the very south east part of the instance, directly southeast of Rotgrip.

Comment by gingergod5

The mythical portal that "Dustfire" mentioned is there and requires no items or quest chains, u go through the double doors, over the way there is 2 stone centures either side of a tunnel, go through it and follow it round to the left, u will come to a npc "Spirit of Kolk" the portal is in the room behind him :)

Happy Hunting

Comment by 315867

It looks nice... but takes a long time. I could not find a SINGLE group to commit to the whole thing. Still haven't done the inner section.

Comment by 304428

the good news is their non-elites a well earned break for your group!

Comment by Sgtown

This instance blows. When the entrance map (in between world map and instance) is bigger than most dungeons, you have a problem.

Comment by 295117

Druds beware, most of your magic will have very limited effect in here as its nature based. If you're feral spec'd you shouldn't have much problem with it in a group, otherwise you're relegated to healer status

Comment by Sandbylur

Copied over from http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=8635#comments:id=579380 because I couldn't find an exit if my life depended on it.

Directions:

Before you reach the princess, drop down into the water. This is where Rotgrip is. There is a water tunnel - go through this. Take the right ramp up and follow it. You will see Elder Splitrock up ahead.

Now go west until you end up at Zaetar's Grave again. You should see a waterfall and a bridge to cross. Cross the bridge and take a left. Follow the path up. At this point you should see Tinkerer Gizlock.

Go west up the ramp, following the path. You should recognize where you are when the ramps splits in different directions. Up and to the right will take you back to Princess, to the left will take you down and out into Earthsong Falls.

Note the path to the west. Follow this path around until you reach the next ramp. Follow the ramp up. Take the next ramp up when you come to the flat spot. (It's the only way you can go without going backwards.) Follow this path around and you should start seeing those turtles. Keep to the pathway and you will come to Celebras. You can take either the orange side or the purple side to exit the instance.

Basically, find your way back to the falls where the portal took you and take one of the entrances *way* back at the beginning

I'm glad modern instance design involves shortcuts to the exits

Comment by 319476

Do not, I repeat do not die in this instance lol. the corpse walk is epic. Apart from that the instance is very well made and i found it entertaining as a healer as the mobs can hit pretty hard :P.

Comment by 348481

The only reason I did this instance was to get the achievement. I was able to solo it with my lvl 75 death knight in about ten minutes. So if you're doing the same thing don't bother with the orange or purple side, just go straight to the inner entrance and avoid battling as much as you can until you get to the pricess, and it shouldn't take very long.

Comment by 348964

Does Maraudon still have a 10 player limit?

Comment by 283244

i noticed something. meshlok the harvester is no longer on the boss list.. does that mean he is gone!

Comment by 153953

Completed the second half of Maraudon today with a 2-man group consisting of a 46 prot paladin and a 42 ret paladin. The ret pally was healing for most of the instance because we hadn't been there before and didn't know about the abundance of stuns/silences/interrupts. Everything went smoothly; no deaths, no bubbles used. I used LoH on the last boss because of a range issue brought about by a simultaneous fear + stompy doom tantrum. It took about 2 hours from the portal entrance, killing the 4 bosses from that location to the end, but a 45-ish Paladin duo familiar with the instance could do it faster.

Comment by 422130

for people lvl 40-45 you should get a healer and tank for this dungeon or just do it the easy way and get a level 80 to run you through :D if you want to get that epic item you will need to go through it a couple of times before you get it.

Comment by dragunknight92

Make sure you are in Desolace, not Silithus unlike me. For someone who hardly quested in Kalimdor, both zones sound and look similar at first glance.

Comment by 388790

does anyone have a map of Maraudon marked with the locations of all of the Khans needed for The Pariah's Instructions ? I've been through twice and still don't have them all.

Comment by 165543

I just wiped in this instance by leeroy pulling on an 80 mage(damn stunlocks) corpse run was insane i just ended up the wrong wing and i tried to get out but i just ran in circles couldn't find my way out so i entered the port pulled a &*!@ load of mobs died and spirit rezzed.

Comment by 490770

Ones you have found Landslide it is easy to find the princess. Go down Landslides ramp. At the bottom there is a bridge to your left and a path the to right, go right. Pass the Subterranean Dimetradons and go over the bridge with the Primordial Behemoths. She is at the end of the bridge.

Comment by katten

Back in vanilla priests loved this instance, you could solo princess thanks to her fatty.

This instance drop alot of good loot, and yeah its a long instance, but compared to run sm 5-6 times with the same group or the boost to get the exp, I prefer one sweep over this beauty, its like a full BRD run, decent exp.
Its also sweet to the looks, exept for princess, shes just scary.

Comment by saluce65

Although it doesn't really matter much now with the Dungeon Finder, it is possible to summon a level 34 to the meeting stone. I tried it with a level 80 and level 35 (out of curiosity, the level 34 was already there =).

Comment by 87957

As of 3.3 with the new random dungeon addition, Celebras is the only boss that is not part of any of the three "dungeons" that Mauradon consists of. The "orange crystals" part of the random dungeon consists of two bosses; Noxxion and Razorlash. The "purple crystals" part of the random dungeon consists of a single boss; Vyletonge. Knowing this, one would expect the "pristine waters" part of the dungeon to start with Celebras, but this is not the case. If you enter the dungeon after being paired up with the "pristine waters" part, you spawn at the bottom of the waterfall, thus making this boss completely left out of the entire random dungeon set up.

Because of this, it may be very difficult to complete the quest to gain the Staff of Celebras without forming a group outside of the random dungeon system

Comment by 24970

With new LFG system you can be matched to this instance from level 40. First boss (Noxxion) is lvl 46, and fight is one of the first complex ones. LFG found me a group of lvl 40-41 players, and we managed to down only Noxxion, as further mobs were red to whole party.

Comment by Eteryu

Be advised; You cannot run out of this instance after jumping down Earth Song Falls. You have to either hearth, die, be summoned, or get moved to the entrance via logout timer.

Comment by dumac

They divided mauradon into three parts. in the lfd.
49-44 Purple=one boss the demon.
42-46 orange=two bosses; noxion, razorlash.
45-50 Stillwater=celebras, giz, rot and princess so four.

I must say i think this is kinda an odd instance, this was more or less an abandon zone mostly in vanilla. Most people tried to avoid it if they could, still there was some people due nature resistance for raiding and princess killing for an good epic.

only other instance worst abandon was Sunken temple, which was a pain many times to get one grp to.

Comment by 271411

Has anyone got any tips on how to find the instance entrances? When I die I can never find my way back in, and I get told off if I soulstone myself :( If it wasn't for the fact I've still got quests to do here I'd never go back again......I hate it soooooo much!

Comment by 349831

can some go straight to the innter gate?

Comment by 453520

Completed all of Maraudon with a 41-43 group. It took some epic kiting, mana management, cooldown chains, and lucky crits, but it's possible with a all blue geared group, only one wipe when we pulled a pat, but besides that we downed all bosses including Princess.

Comment by 468093

for all those who have coords its 38.4 58.0

Comment by Prunella

I really really deeply hate Maraudon and I don't care if it has pretty water lillies; it's an impossibly long and complicated instance that the only way to exit is a) hs and fly all the way back to Desolace turn in the quests, or b) walk all the way back, get lost for hours in the middle, until you find your way back to the entrance.

I hate Maraudon, I hate it.

Comment by jhneoh

2-manned the whole instance at lvl 47 (paladin and priest).

Not difficult at all, since Princess chases the MT even when he's feared.
Main thing is to look out for the patrolling rock elementals, which can easily lead to a wipe if they aggro you in the middle of a battle.
There are 3 of these pats to look out for:

1.) After the Hydras, there will be a tunnel filled with packs of Diemetredons. There is 1 pat here.
2.) After the above tunnel, on the way up to Landslide, there is another pat.
3.) On the way to Princess, with the pairs of stone giants, there is another pat.

Comment by Eilonthay

FYI, a party of lvl 41-42s shouldn't be fighting crowds of lvl 46-48 elites. It just doesn't work. People miss hits left and right, the mobs are a pain to do any real damage to, the healer has a hard time keeping up with the damage spikes...It's just plain painful to watch. You'd think it would be common sense. Not always the case.

I was in a random LFG group of 41-42s with a 45 healer, and after Lord Vyletongue, the tank said, "Let's do some more! Princess and Rotgrip, right?" And everybody was, "Yeah! Let's do it! We're rocking this place!" What I failed to remember is that Princess is a lvl 47-48 and Rotgrip is lvl 48...red mobs to us little low 40s...otherwise I would have refused. Well, we downed Celebras without many issues, after jumping over the poisoned waterfall, and some trash after him, but it was those damn hydra that really did us in. We were fighting one, aggroed two others, and then some of the dinos came to get a piece of the action. The group broke up after that, which was probably a good thing.

Frankly, I didn't even think we'd be able to progress to the rest of the dungeon, since it was a random, but such was not the case. This is a good thing to keep in mind, in case your tank gets ambitious.

So if someone suggests doing the rest of the dungeon from Vyletongue on and you're in the low 40s, learn from my misplaced optimism and just say no. You might survive Celebras and you might even miraculously survive some of the trash, but you'll be scraping your toon off the water-slick floor before you even get to the next boss. Take your random loot and flee before your gear takes a huge hit and you wonder what the hell just happened.

EDIT: When I wrote this up, those lvl numbers were accurate...somewhere between 3.3.5 and 5.4.2, the levels must have been changed for whatever reason Blizzard thought was good. Humor aside, it's still wise advice. Now, it is entirely dependent on the group composition (as you well know by now) whether or not you have the capabilities to tackle the rest of the dungeon after Vyletongue. I have not been in that particular situation, in that particular dungeon, such as was described above, since that admittedly humorous occasion, so I don't know one way or another if it's possible. Since Princess and Rotgrip are both now lvl 39, I think the only serious thing you would have to worry about would be the knock back and fear she does and the silencing and knock back abilities of the trash between Celebras and Princess. If someone attempts it, please post something to let us know how it turned out (curiosity and all), otherwise I would still advise avoiding the latter portion of the dungeon after Vyletongue. Mostly because 95% or so of randoms are looking to get to another random, not finish something they'll hit on in a higher lvl bracket. No, I won't fix the numbers above...the strike through the numbers are distracting. This edit should be enough. =P

Comment by Chilela

In Cataclysm, the level range of Maraudon is lowered to more accurately reflect the level range of Desolace, being changed to level ~36-39. In addition, quests are given at the beginnings of the purple and orange instances. I was not able to do the final section of Maraudon, however, but I'm presuming there are quest givers towards the beginning of the instance (in a similar fashion to all of the classic dungeons in Cata).

The sections of Maraudon have been renamed to...

Purple = The Wicked Grotto
Orange = Foulspore Cavern
Pristine Waters = Earth Song Falls

In addition, Tinkerer Gizlock is now located on the purple side as opposed to the inner area.

EDIT: Sections names properly listed. Thanks Kieran.

Comment by Felblood

anyone else notice (at least on purple side so far) the music here sounds exactly like kingdom heart's battle music?

Comment by 684397

This dungeons is long.

I mean long. Like 2 hours with a decent group, long.

It's fun as hell, but it's long.

Comment by morlocks

Does anyone know where the Maraudon entrance is located since Cata release ... I've went to all of the previously stated locations and nothing ... please help

Comment by Bianconeri

When I was lvling up my first char and came to this dungeon through the dungeon finder I never understood why groups disbanded after the Satyr boss even though the dungeons seemed to continue.

When I soloed it today at 85 I quickly realised why.

Comment by 871883

Soloed this in about 2.5 hours, killing all the bosses and pretty much everything else. All three instances. The most annoying part is having to find the instances, having never done them previously by myself. Level 70 BM Hunter with full PVP gear, no deaths, super easy, just boring and time consuming. BTW, Lots of greens and blues for those wanting to level their Enchanting and need mats.

Comment by Martika

Easy hour long full run as a lvl 85 rogue; definitely not a money-maker by any means if you're a higher level player. I only did it to do the newly reset post-Cataclysm-quests.

However, what I found really fun and unique (though probably entirely coincidental) is that almost all of the greens I got had non-generic names. You know, typically you get "blah blah bracers of the whale" etc... Most of my loot had really specific names.

In no particular order I got: Stonecloth Briches, Enduring Shield, Hawkeye's Cloak, Warden's Wristbands, Stonecloth Bindings, Stonecloth Circlet, & Gloves of Old (a blue BoE.)

Comment by Keyboardturner

You can never be so sure about where the etymology of Blizzard's words are unless they're pretty direct...
But I think this has some relation with "mara," or "maro," "mare," etc. basically meaning evil spirit.

Comment by cUnAzeroth

If you want to solo this instance you should first set you hearthstone to Karnum's Glade in Desolace before you even go to Maraudon. There are three auto accept quests that you can do in Maraudon.

You should pick up the first two quests before killing any mobs. When you reach the area called Zater's Choice there are two centaur statues ahead of you with a path between them. To the right is the the orange crystal caverns and to the left is the purple crystal caverns.

First go to the left (purple) and enter Maraudon (The Wicked Grotto). If you walk into it a few paces you will auto accept the quest Corruption in Maraudon. Then leave the instance immediately and work your way back to the orange caverns entrance (Foulspore Cavern) and enter there. Once inside you will walk under the bridge and as you almost get to the top you will auto accept the quest Servants of Theradras. Now you can run the entire Caverns of Maraudon level killings all mobs and bosses. When you reach Poison Falls this is the halfway point. Dont' go down into them but stay on the left side taking the ramp up. Once you have the first level of the Caverns of Maraudon then port back to Karnum's Glade sell items and empty bags.

Last go back to Zater's Choice and this time go straight through the door way between the centaur statues, (your map should tell you that you are now at Earth Song Gate) follow the short path that curves down and around to the room that is guarded by the Spirit of Kolk and enter the portal to Inner Maraudon. You will be at the Zaetar's Grave level at Earth Song Falls. Jump down the waterfall and swim to the shore. You will be given the third and final auto accept quest Princess Theradras.

All in all, Maraudon is is very long. It is sometimes easy to get lost but just keep checking your map and go from boss to boss. With a little luck and a lot of patience you will be able to solo this area granted you are high enough level. (I did it with a level 68 priest.)

Comment by Netherspark

I feel like Cataclysm has somewhat ruined this dungeon. It's been broken up into 3 tiny seperate wings (as per LFD) that everyone just rushes through in 5 minutes each. This once great instance is now just a disjointed and hollow experience where several bosses are invariably skipped.

A whole section - Poison Falls is left out of the LFD versions, including the boss, Celebras the Cursed. given that two wings end before that part, and the last one begins after it.

Also, due to the "end" boss being Theadras, everybody just leaves immediately and ignores yet another boss, Rotgrip.

Comment by Marpl

Hello my name in Wow is Marpl I'm lvl 32,i have questions about the 2 Dungeons called Maraudon-The wicked Gotto and Maraudon-Foulspore Cavern,When i go in The 2 Dungeons the Quests do not Pop up when they are supposed to,Please Help me Thank You.

Comment by Scoobydeux

(As of Aug 15, 2014) the boss location box above shows Tinker Gizlock in the Inner (final) section. That is incorrect, he's actually in the purple section, about half way to Lord Vyletongue. The map above has his correct location marked.

I have always loved this instance and I still do now.

My favourite soundtrack though in the entire place, is at Vyletongue Seat, Soundtrack (Youtube)

I'm not sure if it's still the case but lord vyletongue was unbalanced a little bit after the number crunch and started destroying parties while leveling alts, it was hilarious to see that even in our heirloom gear this place was still hurting us somewhat :)

Would definitely love a heroic version of this dungeon.

Encounters

Noxxion – Noxxion is a living embodiment of corruption. Theradras ordered her ally Lord Vyletongue to create this putrid elemental to be a powerful servant and a loyal pet to ease the princess's loneliness. Noxxion spreads its toxic essence into areas of Maraudon that have not yet withered under Theradras's malign influence.
Razorlash – Razorlash was made to accompany Noxxion through Maraudon. In time, this new creation became one of the princess's most cherished servants. Razorlash constantly wanders the caves alongside Noxxion, using thorny tendrils to shred any untainted plant life it can find.
Tinkerer Gizlock – Tinkerer Gizlock and five other gem hunters snuck into Maraudon to mine its highly prized crystals. Their plan went horribly wrong when satyrs slaughtered everyone in the party save for Gizlock. The goblin, trapped within the caves and driven to the brink of madness, sees himself as the subterranean region's new ruler.
Lord Vyletongue – The satyr lord Vyletongue journeyed into Maraudon's depths after hearing of its corruption. Theradras was wary of the conniving demon at first, but Vyletongue proved his worth by creating an array of wretched minions, such as Noxxion and Razorlash, for the princess.
Celebras the Cursed – Upon learning of his uncle's tragic fate, the noble Celebras swore to free Zaetar's spirit. Yet the keeper of the grove was not prepared for the horrors that awaited him in Maraudon's shadowy corridors. The dark energies permeating the area quickly overcame Celebras, filling his heart with uncontrollable rage.
Landslide – For years, the ancient mountain giant known as Landslide cultivated brilliant crystal gardens in Maraudon, but Theradras enthralled the behemoth when she took up residence there. This once-stoic giant now lives only to serve his tyrannical new master.
Rotgrip – Rumor has it that Rotgrip has dwelled in Maraudon's subterranean waters for millennia. The famed dwarven hunter Hemet Nesingwary once proclaimed that the beast could not be found, and a number of amateur trackers accepted the challenge of seeking out the legendary creature. None of them ever returned.
Princess Theradras – The earth elemental Theradras, Therazane the Stonemother's sole daughter, resides in Maraudon's inner sanctum. Influenced by the Old Gods, the princess transformed her home into a den of corruption and suffering. Some believe that her foul powers are tied to the spirit of her dead lover, Zaetar. If so, liberating the fallen keeper of the grove might be the only hope of cleansing Maraudon.
