Wailing Cavern (WC) is a Dungeon in World of Warcraft Classic which can be accessed from Level 17. The entrance to the instance is in The Barrens and can be seen from the surrounding area.
These once natural grottoes produced long, gloomy wails due to different steam fissures contained within. This phenomenon peaked the curiosity of a Night Elf, Naralex, who believed he could draw on the subterranean power of the cavern to restore fertility to The Barrens. However, the technique used to restore The Barrens led to a unprecedented disaster. By tapping into the power of the Emerald Dream, Naralax changed the water of the caverns, turning it foul. In addition, the few creatures still living inside the recesses of the Caverns were subject to a horrible transformation into deadly and cunning predators.
Legend says that Naralex still lives in the Wailing Caverns, engulfed by the Emerald Dream. Dare you brave the caverns to verify this claim?
Dungeon Location
Wailing Caverns is a Level 17 Dungeon, but you should be at least Level 20 in order to feasibly complete it.
The Dungeon is found under the Horde zones of The Barrens, in a cavern alongside Lushwater Oasis. It is the first dungeon that players will come across with a non-linear layout, which may be initially challenging for newer players. This dungeon is well worth the trouble, due to the fantastic loot and quests rewards it offers players who take a trip within.
