All six bosses drop items that come only from them, per Wowhead. The table lists each boss's own drops with their required levels. Items marked "new" were added in Forever.

Several of these items have required levels above 37, so a character at the bottom of the range may have to wait a few levels before equipping them. A plate wearer who wants both the Carapace and the Barbute should plan on running the dungeon at 40 or later.

Who is Amnennar the Coldbringer?

Amnennar the Coldbringer is the final boss of Razorfen Downs and the target of both faction kill quests. Per Wowhead, he has the largest boss-only loot table in the dungeon, with six items for plate, mail, leather and cloth wearers plus a dagger and a staff.

Blizzard hasn't published any Forever mechanics for him, and dungeon tuning has changed a lot since the beta. Treat any older strategy you remember as a starting point, not a script.

What is the Extinguishing the Idol event?

Extinguishing the Idol is an escort quest. You walk Belnistrasz to the quilboar idol inside Razorfen Downs, and it comes after Scourge of the Downs, which he also gives. Both quests require level 32 and are open to both factions.

Start the escort only after the group has drunk to full and everyone knows which way he walks. Most failed escorts happen because the group was low on mana, not because the event is hard.

Is Razorfen Downs worth running more than once?

It is now, more than it was at launch. Blizzard's November 8 hotfix raised experience from dungeon kills by 50% to make repeat runs worthwhile. Forever's launch changes had moved most of a dungeon's experience into its quests, which is why many players only ran each dungeon once.

A second run makes sense if you're farming one specific drop, such as Coldbringer Spine for a caster or the Carapace of Tuten'kash for a plate tank. If you only need the experience, open-world questing is still competitive.

What changed in Razorfen Downs for Forever?

So far, the confirmed changes are new loot and new world content around the dungeon. Per Wowhead, Coldbringer Spine, Abomination Chain and Decaying Flesh Bands are new Forever drops. Blizzard also listed Razorfen Downs as one of the areas that get expanded Shen'dralar content.

Blizzard hasn't published what that Shen'dralar content involves around Razorfen Downs, so this guide doesn't speculate. Its loot tables also come from Wowhead's database. Blizzard keeps dungeon item data out of the game client until players find the items, so these tables can still grow.

If you'd rather not spend an evening putting a group together, PewPewShop can put a vetted human player in your party for a Razorfen Downs run, starting from 23 EUR.
