Announcing: Dalaran Epilogue & Undermine Prologue Quests for World of Warcraft

• How to Begin the Patch 11.1 Prologue

• Initiating the Dalaran Epilogue in World of Warcraft: The War Within

The narrative of World of Warcraft: The War Within continues. Beyond the Siren Isle update, Season 2's anticipated 2025 launch promises new endgame content and the expansion's next chapter. However, Patch 11.0.7 introduces several story quests setting the stage for Patch 11.1, focusing on the Goblin capital, Undermine. A separate questline concludes the tragic destruction of Dalaran, though not immediately upon patch release.

Updated January 7, 2025, by Paul Woodward: The recent campaign quests mark a significant turning point. Dalaran, a Warcraft staple, may not recover from The War Within's events. The Dalaran Epilogue questline provides closure, offering a fitting farewell to this crucial social hub in Wrath of the Lich King and Legion.

Spoilers ahead, read with caution.

How to Begin the Patch 11.1 Prologue

Unlike the Dalaran Epilogue, the Lingering Shadows campaign begins immediately. Completion of the leveling or Level 80 campaign isn't required. For optimal understanding, complete prior story content to avoid spoilers and gain context. The Lingering Shadows campaign includes:

• Lingering Shadows
• Price of a Mission
• Standing in the Way
• No Breathing Room
• Together, Alone
• The Voice
• Ringing in the Deeps
• Good Help These Days
• Hey, What's Going On?
• Haywired and Hostile
• Built to Blast
• Bat Versus World
• Found Friends

After "Found Friends," speak with Orweyna. Her quest, while not part of the campaign, offers insights into potential future plot developments within The War Within or subsequent World Soul Saga expansions.

Initiating the Dalaran Epilogue in World of Warcraft: The War Within

Initially, this questline had a three-week delay. As of January 7th, this restriction is lifted. However, completing both The War Within's leveling campaign and the Level 80 campaign (requiring Renown Four with all four Khaz Algar factions) is necessary.

If unsure about meeting these requirements, visit Foundation Hall (the prologue quest starting point for Patch 11.1). Khadgar's presence (after January 7th) indicates eligibility for his quest. His absence signifies unfinished campaign quests. The Dalaran Epilogue quest list is below:

Dalaran Epilogue Quest List

• Survivor's Guilt
• The Hardest Part

• Trapped Between Life and Death
• Somehow We Survived
• A Helping Hand
