WoW Forever Tirisfal Glades is still the Forsaken 1 to 12 zone, and the old route still wins: Deathknell, then Brill, then Agamand Mills and the Scarlet towers, then out to Silverpine Forest at level 10 to 12. Come back at 15 for the new Ruins of Lordaeron dungeon. Forsaken Paladins detour to the Whispering Wood around level 10. Everything else is the same misery you remember, with better lighting.
What Forever actually adds to Tirisfal Glades: the Whispering Wood, a previously unreachable corner of the northwest, with Bandarion Keep as the Undead Paladin class hub; the Ruins of Lordaeron, a Horde dungeon for levels 15 to 20; retuned Undead racials; and new starting zone NPCs with quests, training, and recipes. The quest skeleton underneath is the Classic one, which is why this route works.
Launch is November 4, 2026. The beta opened September 17 with a level 20 cap that later rises to 30, so WoW Forever beta leveling covers this zone completely. Quest IDs below point to the Classic database, because the Forever database is days old and still filling up.
How to Get In: Routes, Flight Paths, Coordinates
Tirisfal has no flight master. The nearest Horde bird sits in Undercity, directly south of Brill, and the next one is at the Sepulcher in Silverpine Forest. Walk, ride the zeppelin, or die trying.
| Who you are | How you arrive | Where you land |
|---|---|---|
| Forsaken | Spawn in the Shadow Grave crypt | Deathknell, far west |
| Forsaken Paladin | Same start, class story pulls you to the Whispering Wood near level 10 | Bandarion Keep, northwest |
| Orc, Troll, Tauren | Zeppelin from Orgrimmar | Zeppelin tower between Brill and Undercity |
| Anyone in Stranglethorn | Zeppelin from Grom'gol | Same tower |
| Alliance | Walk north through Hillsbrad and Silverpine; the new Menethil to Southshore ship shortens the first half | Southern road, straight into Horde guards |
Coordinates below use the Classic map. Forever reuses the same terrain for the original zone, so they should hold; check them against your beta client before swearing at anyone.
| Spot | Coordinates | Why you go |
|---|---|---|
| Deathknell chapel | 31, 66 | Sarvis, class trainers, first quests |
| Night Web's Hollow | 27, 59 | Spider kills |
| Scarlet camp | 37, 67 | Armbands, Meven Korgal |
| Calvin Montague | 38, 56 | A Rogue's Deal |
| Deathguard Simmer | 40, 54 | Fields of Grief |
| Scarlet tower past Solliden | 32, 47 | Scarlet Warriors |
| Vile Fin coast | 29, 45 | Murloc scales |
| Stillwater Pond | 48, 51 | Rotting Dead, darkhounds |
| Brill | 60, 52 | Main hub, inn, hearthstone |
| Agamand Family Crypt | 52, 27 | Captain Dargol |
Level Range: When to Come, When to Leave
The zone is tuned for 1 to 10, and the eastern chains stretch it to 12. WoW Forever 1-12 leveling means clearing Tirisfal to 11 or 12, then walking south. Staying longer is how people end up grinding murlocs at level 13 for copper.
| Level | Where | Then |
|---|---|---|
| 1 to 5 | Deathknell | Road north to Brill |
| 5 to 8 | Brill west loop, Solliden, Stillwater Pond | First Undercity trip at 8 |
| 8 to 11 | Garren's Haunt, North Coast, Agamand Mills | Crypt at 11 plus |
| 10 to 12 | Balnir Farmstead, Venomweb Vale, Scarlet Watch Post, Gunther's island | Leave for Silverpine |
| 10 | Forsaken Paladins only | Whispering Wood, Bandarion Keep |
| 15 to 20 | Ruins of Lordaeron dungeon | Back to Silverpine or Hillsbrad |
| Classic entry 21 plus | Scarlet Monastery | Group content, not questing |
Quest Hubs and Breadcrumbs: What Unlocks What
Tirisfal runs on handoffs. Miss one breadcrumb and a whole chain stays hidden. The WoW Forever Brill quests depend on the Deathknell finale, so do not skip it.
| Hub | Key giver | Unlocks |
|---|---|---|
| Deathknell | Shadow Priest Sarvis | The Mindless Ones, then the Deathknell chains |
| Deathknell | Executor Arren | Scarlet camp chain ending in Vital Intelligence |
| Brill road | Gordo | Gordo's Task, which opens Doom Weed |
| Brill | Executor Zygand | At War With The Scarlet Crusade, then the three captain steps |
| Brill | Deathguard Burgess | Proof of Demise, rings from the same Scarlets |
| Brill | Apothecary Johaan | A New Plague chain, then Delivery to Silverpine Forest |
| Brill | Magistrate Sevren | The Family Crypt and The Prodigal Lich |
| Brill | Coleman Farthing, Gallows' End Tavern | Deaths in the Family and The Haunted Mills |
| Undercity | Bethor Iceshard | The Lich's Identity, Return the Book, Gunther's island chain |
| East road camp | Deathguard Linnea | Rear Guard Patrol |
Optimal Quest Chain Order
This is the Classic speed route with every Forever caveat baked in. Follow it as a World of Warcraft Forever leveling guide for the Forsaken start and you will not backtrack more than the zone forces you to.
- Take Rude Awakening from Undertaker Mordo and turn it in to Shadow Priest Sarvis in the chapel.
- Kill zombies north of the chapel for The Mindless Ones, then pick up Rattling the Rattlecages, The Damned, and your class scroll.
- Farm bats and wolves west of town for The Damned and kill Rattlecage Skeletons on the way back.
- Grab Marla's Last Wish, Night Web's Hollow, and Scavenging Deathknell, looting the supply crates around town as you pass.
- Clear Night Web's Hollow, then raid the Scarlet camp for The Scarlet Crusade armbands.
- Kill Samuel Fipps at the wrecked camp northeast of town and bury his remains at Marla's grave.
- Return to the Scarlet camp, kill Meven Korgal for The Red Messenger, and take Vital Intelligence to Brill.
- Accept A Rogue's Deal from Calvin Montague and Fields of Grief from Deathguard Simmer on the way out.
- Take Gordo's Task from Gordo on the Brill road and pick Gloom Weed while walking.
- In Brill, turn in and collect At War With The Scarlet Crusade, Proof of Demise, Wanted: Maggot Eye, Doom Weed, A New Plague, A Putrid Task, and The Chill of Death, then set your hearthstone.
- Kill Rotting Dead and darkhounds around Stillwater Pond for A Putrid Task and the darkhound blood.
- Go back to Calvin Montague, who refuses to pay, and beat the payment out of him.
- Loot pumpkins at Solliden Farmstead for Fields of Grief, then kill ten Scarlet Warriors at the tower to the west.
- At level 8, train in Undercity, hand The Prodigal Lich to Bethor Iceshard, and kill Perrine at the ruined tower southwest of Brill for the Captain Perrine step.
- Head north for Doom Weed, gnolls, and Wanted: Maggot Eye at Garren's Haunt, then murlocs on the coast for the Vile Fin follow-up.
- Grab the Lich's Spellbook from Gunther's island in the lake, return it to Bethor, and bring Return the Book back to Gunther.
- Clear Agamand Mills for The Mills Overrun and Deaths in the Family, killing Devlin, Nissa, Gregor, and Thurman as they appear.
- Enter the crypt at 11 or higher and kill Captain Dargol for The Family Crypt.
- Take the east road to Deathguard Linnea, finish Rear Guard Patrol at Balnir Farmstead, and kill Vachon for the Captain Vachon step.
- Collect Vicious Night Web venom in Venomweb Vale, then kill Melrache and both bodyguards past Faol's Rest for the Captain Melrache step.
- Finish Proving Allegiance on Gunther's island by summoning and killing Lillith Nefara, then deliver The Prodigal Lich Returns to Bethor.
- Take Delivery to Silverpine Forest from Johaan and walk south to the Sepulcher.
What to Skip
Skipping is a skill. These are the quests that cost more than they pay at the level you will be doing them.
| Quest | Verdict | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| The Family Crypt | Skip under 11 | Dargol and packs of ancestors in a tight crypt; cheap deaths |
| the Captain Melrache step | Skip solo under 12 | Three linked pulls in a tower |
| Rear Guard Patrol | Do | Bleeding Horrors and spirits are on the Vachon path anyway |
| A New Plague final steps | Do if heading east | Venomweb Vale pairs with Vachon and Melrache |
| The Prodigal Lich Returns | Do | Chain ends in a shield and solid experience |
| Delivery to Silverpine Forest | Do | Free experience on the road you walk anyway |
| Scarlet Monastery quests | Skip for now | Classic entry is 21 plus; you will be back |
Elite and Group Quests
Tirisfal has no true elite quests. It has quests that behave like elite ones if you arrive underleveled, which is worse because nothing warns you.
- Captain Melrache fights beside two bodyguards, so pull them apart or bring a friend for the Captain Melrache step.
- Maggot Eye sits with a gnoll escort at Garren's Haunt and rewards patience more than bravery.
- Lillith Nefara is summoned at a lakeside altar and is a fair fight at 12 with full health and cooldowns.
- Captain Dargol waits at the bottom of the crypt behind ancestor packs, which makes The Family Crypt the zone's real gatekeeper.
- The Ruins of Lordaeron is a proper five-player dungeon and needs a group at 15 or higher.
Forsaken Paladin: Whispering Wood and Bandarion Keep
The WoW Forever Forsaken Paladin storyline is the only fully new questing inside this zone. Around level 10 the class is sent to Bandarion Keep in the Whispering Wood, northwestern Tirisfal. Some panel recaps heard the name as Vandarian Keep; the printed sources settled on Bandarion.
The pitch is simple. Other Forsaken hate you, the Light hurts, and some risen paladins snap and have to be put down. Most class quests come from the keep, the class gets its own steed in black and gold barding, and a level 60 epic mount quest caps it off. Trainers and reputation rules were not announced, so expect beta data to fill that in.
Ruins of Lordaeron: The New Dungeon Upstairs
The Ruins of Lordaeron dungeon sits in the fallen capital above Undercity and targets levels 15 to 20. It is the Horde's lowbie dungeon, mirrored by the Alliance's Hall of Thanes under Ironforge. Alliance groups can still get in, reportedly with more effort.
Boss list, quest givers, and loot were not public at beta launch. The practical plan is to leave Tirisfal at 12, level in Silverpine, and ride back at 15 with a group, checking Brill and Undercity for dungeon quests before you zone in.
Undead Racials in Forever
Every race now has two active and two passive racials. For WoW Forever Undead leveling the relevant changes are: Cannibalize restores mana as well as health, Will of the Forsaken no longer grants immunity after the cleanse, and Touch of the Grave gains a drain effect. Underwater breathing stays, which matters more than people admit on the North Coast.
Best Quest Rewards and Zone Drops
Nothing here is best in slot past level 15. Everything here is best in slot at level 7, which is when you need it.
| Source | Reward | Keep it? |
|---|---|---|
| The Mindless Ones | Flax Gloves or Battered Cloak | Until Brill |
| The Scarlet Crusade | Forsaken Dagger, Maul, Shortsword, or Bastard Sword | Yes, first real weapon |
| The Red Messenger | Executor Staff or Deathguard Buckler | Casters take the staff |
| The Chill of Death | Adept's Cloak or Sewing Gloves | Yes |
| Proof of Demise | Zombie Skin Bracers, Clasped Belt, or Netted Gloves | Yes |
| A New Plague | Weak Troll's Blood Potion | Drink it, do not frame it |
| The Prodigal Lich Returns | Bone Buckler | Yes for shield users |
| Perrine's chest, warlocks only | Egalin's Grimoire for Creature of the Void | Mandatory, it is your Voidwalker |
Loot worth keeping from mobs is limited to Linen Cloth from the Scarlets for First Aid and tailoring, Duskbat Pelts for Gretchen Dedmar, and whatever greens the Scarlet Warriors drop out of pity.
Rares, Farm Spots, and Hunter Pets
| Rare | Where | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Ressan the Needler | Southwestern border | White bat, the only reason hunters stay |
| Deeb | North Coast | Murloc caster, 1.5 to 2.5 hour respawn |
| Muad | Vile Fin coast | Deeb's partner in the Dune joke |
| Bayne | Roams the zone | Silver elite for early hunters |
- Scarlet Warriors at the Solliden tower give rings, cloth, and quest progress in one pull.
- Stillwater Pond keeps Rotting Dead and darkhounds packed together for two quests at once.
- The North Coast murlocs respawn fast enough to finish scale quests without waiting.
- Night Web's Hollow is empty after the quest, which makes it a quiet spot for skinning practice.
Lore Worth Knowing
Tirisfal means Tyr's Fall, named for the titan keeper, and it was once the meeting ground of the Council of Tirisfal. By the time you wake up, it belongs to Sylvanas, the Scourge, and the Scarlet Crusade, in no particular order of friendliness. The WoW Classic+ Tirisfal experience keeps that three-way war intact and adds the Forsaken Paladin arc, which ties into the new Warcraft III campaign, Forsaken Kingdom.
The Agamands are the zone's best tragedy. Their mills fell because the youngest son opened the gates to the Scourge, and now the family's former worker pays you to smash their bones. WoW Forever Horde leveling starts in Brill for most, but this is where it pays off.

Leave at level 10 to 12, walk south to the Sepulcher in Silverpine Forest, then return at 15 for dungeons.

No. Use the Undercity flight master south of Brill, or the Sepulcher in Silverpine once you have discovered it.
Q: Where do Forsaken Paladins go in WoW Forever?
Around level 10 they head to Bandarion Keep in the Whispering Wood, northwest Tirisfal, for most of their class quests.

It targets levels 15 to 20, sits in the fallen capital above Undercity, and is built as a Horde dungeon.
