WoW Classic: Dungeon Levels List – Level Requirements, Ranges & Loot

Our WoW Classic: Dungeon Levels List features all of the required levels you'll need to reach to enter dungeons in the vanilla version of World of Warcraft! While there's usually a minimum level requirement for each dungeon, it is very rarely recommended to enter the dungeon at this level. You are better off waiting at least 5 - 10 levels above this requirement before entering one of these dungeons.

Why Dungeons?

Dungeons are a great change of pace to breakup some of the monotony of leveling while playing through to level 60. Providing a large XP boost, dungeons will prepare you for raiding faster than the typical questing you may have grown tired of. They are also a great way to get some gear that will carry you for quite a few levels as you make your way in the game.

However, you will need to find some players to aid you in your journey. Typically every dungeon requires five players to complete: one Tank, one Healer, and at least three DPS. You also need to meet the level requirement to even enter the dungeon, and even when that's the case it is usually ill-advised to enter at too low a level. Dungeons are more difficult than typical quests.

WoW Classic: Dungeon Levels List

I'm including the minimum level requirement needed to enter any of the dungeons, but also the recommended levels in bold. If a dungeon is labeled either Horde or Alliance, that just means that particular faction has quests for it and easy access. You can still enter the dungeon as an opposing faction, it's just a lot more difficult (have to travel through an opposing area/city) and you won't have quests associated with the dungeon.
