WoW Forever players heading into the Deadmines can use a new quest chain to reach the dungeon beneath Moonbrook in Westfall. Space4games’ guide covers the 11-quest Toxic Soil chain, the Defias Brotherhood encounters and the loot available from the dungeon’s bosses.
How the Deadmines content is structured
The Toxic Soil chain is an Alliance questline that begins with Alba Fairmoon at Sentinel Hill in Westfall. Her listed location is 52.5, 53.0. The early objectives send players through Westfall, including the Jansen Stead and Molsen Farm, before the chain later takes them to Stormwind and into the Deadmines.
The first quest is Testing the Wells, which is listed at level 12 and asks players to collect water samples from wells at the Jansen Stead and Molsen Farm. The next listed quest, Murloc Gills, continues the chain. The dungeon portion comes later, with one of the 11 quests taking place inside the Deadmines.
Dungeon level range and access
The Deadmines are located in southern Westfall, beneath Moonbrook. The Dungeon Finder lists the dungeon for characters from levels 17 to 26, while the quest chain begins at level 12 and the dungeon quest is listed at level 18.
Although Toxic Soil is an Alliance chain, Horde players can still enter the dungeon through the Dungeon Finder. Space4games said its five-player group completed a run with characters between levels 19 and 21 in about 52 minutes. The guide’s information is marked as current as of Nov. 14, 2026.
Bosses and encounter coverage
The guide covers the Defias Brotherhood through Edwin VanCleef and lists the dungeon’s main bosses as Rhahk’Zor, Sneed, Gilnid, Mr. Smite, Captain Greenskin and Edwin VanCleef. It also includes Cookie and the rare Miner Johnson among the Deadmines encounters.
- Main progression: Rhahk’Zor, Sneed, Gilnid, Mr. Smite, Captain Greenskin and Edwin VanCleef.
- Additional encounters: Cookie and the rare Miner Johnson.
- Dungeon rewards: blueprints and patterns, including camp-related designs listed in the guide.
Space4games’ boss advice is partly based on community sources, while the site said the names of bosses, items and quest steps came from the game and that it had personally completed a five-player run. That distinction matters when using the guide: its observed run information is tied to the Nov. 14 game state, while some encounter advice comes from community material.
What to check before entering
Players following the chain should begin with Alba Fairmoon at Sentinel Hill and track the quest levels as they move between Westfall, Stormwind and the Deadmines. The dungeon’s listed level range overlaps the later part of the chain, so the Dungeon Finder provides an alternative route for players who are not following the Alliance quests.
The guide also places the Deadmines in the wider WoW Forever dungeon progression, alongside an overview of dungeon levels and coverage of the similarly leveled Ruins of Lordaeron. Its Deadmines section is intended to combine the quest route, boss order and reward information in one reference for the current game state.
