The Stockade
The StockadeDungeon for level 24–32 (min. level 24) · Stormwind City
Stormwind's prison, right in the city: for levels 24–32 and quick to reach for the Alliance.
Tips for the run
Tactics based on Classic – bosses and abilities may differ in WoW Forever.
Before the run
The Stockade is in the middle of Stormwind, so it's practically Alliance-only. Several quests come from Redridge Mountains, Duskwood and the Wetlands – collect them on the way and turn them in together.
Group
Tank, healer and three DPS. AoE pays off, since the prisoners often come in large groups. The Stockade is short and great for quick repeat runs.
Route
The Stockade is a main corridor with cells on both sides plus several side wings. Clear cell by cell so no prisoners come up behind you. Bazil Thredd waits at the end of one of the corridors.
