Which dungeon first?

Why this rank
Every boss is a hard healing check, and Zul’jan is the wall most groups hit.
Since the original
New in patch 12.1 — Heroic and Mythic 0 at launch, Mythic+ when Season 2 began.
Three views — not one tier
Editorial difficulty: 1 of 8 (Icy Veins)
Timer: 2 of 8 in the pool
At +10: Hero 3/6 · 311 · Vault Myth 1/6 · 318 — same in every dungeon
Bosses in order
- Rav’i
- The Writhing Coil
- Zul’jan
New group must know
Rav’i wipes a group that has not read it; the trash before boss one stacks healing absorbs from its totems.
My notes ✎ · best key ✎
Why this rank
Hard bosses and hard trash that scale badly at high keys — and part of it is that players are relearning it.
Since the original
Season 2 test notes (July 7): most enemies got new ability packages, and some RP between bosses runs faster.

Editorial difficulty: 2 of 8 (Icy Veins)
Timer: 7 of 8 in the pool
At +10: Hero 3/6 · 311 · Vault Myth 1/6 · 318 — same in every dungeon
Bosses in order
- The Golden Serpent
- Mchimba the Embalmer
- The Council of Tribes
- Dazar, the First King
New group must know
Dazar, the First King is one of the hardest tank fights in recent seasons: constant movement under constant hits.
My notes ✎ · best key ✎
Why this rank
The Thrashers’ stacking bleeds and poisons are the threat; the rest of the dungeon is easy.

- Lightwarden Ruia
- Ziekket
New group must know
Boss one needs the whole group in the soaks, or it goes wrong fast.
My notes ✎ · best key ✎
Why this rank
All of its difficulty is at the start — once the second boss is down, the run eases off.
Since the original
Season 2 test notes (July 7): the gauntlet before the Avatar was reworked so nobody sits out energising an orb.

- Avatar of Sethraliss
New group must know
Spend the group’s cooldowns and attention on the opening and the first two bosses.
My notes ✎ · best key ✎
Why this rank
A route check: the left hallway is the hard one at the start, and after the first boss the two sides swap.

The giant golems after the third boss hit the whole group hard.

The birds before the first boss leave bleeds — the one stretch to respect.
My notes ✎ · best key ✎
Why this rank
The shortest and easiest dungeon of the season.
Since the original
Season 2 test notes (July 7): every boss casts at a slower pace, and some sections carry less trash.

Where sources disagree
- Method’s end-of-run table gives Hero 1–3/6 as 302 / 305 / 308; its own track table — and every other table we read — says 305 / 308 / 311. We print the track table.
- Method’s Vault table writes 311 beside Hero 4/6 at +7–9, but its track table puts Hero 4/6 at 315 — the value shown here.
- Some guides dated patch 12.1.5 to the week of 6 October; Blizzard Watch and Warcraft Wiki date it 13 October.
- Icy Veins built its order from week-one +13/+14 keys and expects it to soften — Kings’ Rest most, since part of its difficulty is unfamiliarity.
