Razorfen Kraul: WoW Forever Dungeon

Razorfen Kraul is the warren of the quillboar, grown from the thorns of the demigod Agamaggan. The quillboar breed boars and war beasts in the tunnels and worship the thorns. The dungeon is a maze of vine-walled paths between open pens, with quillboar casters, archers and handlers in every group.

The difficulty here is the pulls. Quillboar packs mix melee, healers and casters, and they come with boars that hit hard and run fast. Many packs are close together on the vine paths, and archers on the ridges can pull a second group into a fight you thought was clean. It rewards a tank who pulls back around corners and a group that kills the healers first.

In WoW Forever the Dungeon Finder row starts at level 24, one step below Gnomeregan. The October 1 notes list Razorfen Kraul among the beta's open dungeons. With the beta capped at 30, it is one of the last dungeons a beta character can finish at level, and the quest rewards matter more than the boss drops.

Clear order

1. Start Willix the Importer's escort when you reach him; he walks out to the entrance while you guard him.
2. The beta client lists the encounters as Roogug, Aggem Thorncurse, Death Speaker Jargba, Overlord Ramtusk, Agathelos the Raging and Charlga Razorflank. Many groups meet Aggem first; the paths allow either.
3. Overlord Ramtusk holds a large open area with many quillboar around him; clear it in small pulls.
4. Agathelos the Raging is in the boar pens behind his Ward Guardians. Charlga Razorflank waits at the end in her hut.
5. Two Classic Era rares, Earthcaller Halmgar and the Blind Hunter, do not always appear. Kill them if you meet them.

Group and preparation

• Kill quillboar healers and casters first in every pack. A pack whose healer lives takes twice as long.
• Polymorph and Sap work on quillboar; Hibernate and Scare Beast work on the boars. Use both.
• Bring a hunter or a warlock for Fear and pets if you can; the long open pens are good for kiting a loose boar.
• Watch for archers on the high ledges. Pull them down to you instead of walking under them.
• Rest between pulls. Quillboar packs come close together here, and a group that pulls with half mana meets the next pack with none.
• For the Blueleaf Tubers quest, use the Crate with Holes on a Snufflenose Gopher outside, then command it to dig up tubers as you go. Do it during the run, not after.

• The beta client gives the Razorfen Kraul Dungeon Finder row a minimum level of 24; the Classic Era client (1.15.9.70003) leaves that row without a level. ^{[BETA-OBSERVED]}
• No instance-specific change found in the beta client data as of build 1.60.1.70170: same encounter ids, names and order as Classic Era. Blizzard's notes so far do not name a change to this dungeon's bosses. ^{[BETA-OBSERVED]}

Forever rules that apply to every dungeon

• Dungeon mob XP was cut and dungeon quest XP raised; the October 1 notes then cut the extra dungeon quest XP by 50%. Do the quests. ^{[REPORTED][OFFICIAL]}
• Dungeon boss unique drops are now blue, and BoP green and blue appearances go to every eligible looter. ^[OFFICIAL]
• Blizzard says ordinary mobs take about 10 to 15 seconds to kill and crowd control still matters in dungeons. ^[OFFICIAL]

Classic Era quests for this dungeon

Classic Era quests for this dungeon that are not in our beta cache yet. Forever has over 1,000 new quests and has changed dungeon quest XP, so treat this as the Classic baseline until each one shows up in the beta cache. ^{[CLASSIC ERA]}

The Willix escort is easy if the paths are clear: Willix walks out the way you came in and stops to talk, and quillboar that respawned or were skipped attack him on the way. Do the escort as soon as you find him, while the path behind you is still clean, and keep the tank next to him.

Blueleaf Tubers and Willix are the two quests to start from inside or just outside the dungeon. Both factions can do them, and both are worth doing on the same run as the bosses.

Classic Era mechanics; Forever beta unconfirmed. ^{[CLASSIC ERA]}

Encounter 1 of 6 in the beta client. Classic Era mechanics; Forever beta unconfirmed. ^{[CLASSIC ERA]}

A quillboar shaman who fights with a Death's Head Seer and summons a Stone Rumbler, an earth elemental.

Abilities

Tactics

Pull the quillboar near him first, one group at a time. When you pull Roogug, pull him around a corner so he and the Seer walk into melee and cast less. Kill the Seer, then the Rumbler or Roogug depending on who is hurting the healer. He is the softest boss here once his helpers are down.

• Tank: Line-of-sight pull; grab the Rumbler the moment it appears.
• Healer: Stay out of sight until the pack is bunched on the tank.
• DPS: Seer first, then the elemental, then Roogug.

Encounter 2 of 6 in the beta client. Classic Era mechanics; Forever beta unconfirmed. ^{[CLASSIC ERA]}

A quillboar beast master who keeps calling boar spirits during the fight.

Abilities

Tactics

The longer the fight, the more spirits. Clear everything near him so the group can open on him at once, and burn him. If spirits stack up on the healer, the tank grabs them with area threat and the group stays on Aggem.

• Tank: Grab each spirit boar the moment it appears.
• Healer: Spirits add burst on the tank; be ready for it.
• DPS: Stay on Aggem; killing him ends the summons.

Encounter 3 of 6 in the beta client. Classic Era mechanics; Forever beta unconfirmed. ^{[CLASSIC ERA]}

A quillboar shadow caster with a Death's Head Acolyte and a Razorfen Groundshaker beside him.

Abilities

Tactics

Three mobs at the pull. Polymorph or Sap the Groundshaker, kill the Acolyte, then Jargba. Mind control is the fight: when Jargba takes a player, the group keeps damaging him, and someone stuns or sheeps the controlled player if they are hurting the healer. A mind-controlled healer heals Jargba, so interrupt them too. Keep the fight short.

• Tank: Stay on Jargba; he is the only way to end the mind control fast.
• Healer: If the tank is controlled, heal whoever has Jargba's attention.
• DPS: Keep hitting Jargba. Only a ranged player with crowd control turns to the controlled player.

Encounter 4 of 6 in the beta client. Classic Era mechanics; Forever beta unconfirmed. ^{[CLASSIC ERA]}

A quillboar warlord with two Razorfen Spearhides, in a large open area with many quillboar around him.

Tactics

Clear the area around him patiently; this is the biggest trash section of the run. Then pull him with his two Spearhides. Crowd control one Spearhide, kill the other, then Ramtusk. He is a heavy melee fighter and nothing more, so the fight is a tank check, not a mechanics check.

• Tank: Pull him out of the open area toward the path you came from.
• Healer: Three melee on the tank at the start; ask for the crowd control before the pull.
• DPS: Spearhide first, then Ramtusk.

Encounter 5 of 6 in the beta client. Classic Era mechanics; Forever beta unconfirmed. ^{[CLASSIC ERA]}

A huge boar guarded by a Death's Head Seer and two Ward Guardians, which must die before you reach him.

Tactics

Kill the Seer and the two Ward Guardians first; they stand between you and the boar. Clear the boars in his pen; Scare Beast and Hibernate help with those. Then tank Agathelos against the vines so he cannot be dragged into a new pack. He hits harder than anything else in the Kraul, so healers keep their best heals for the tank and damage dealers wait for threat.

• Tank: Defensive cooldown early; he does not let up.
• Healer: Pure tank healing; stay well back.
• DPS: Behind him, and only after the tank's lead.

Encounter 6 of 6 in the beta client. Classic Era mechanics; Forever beta unconfirmed. ^{[CLASSIC ERA]}

The Crone of the Kraul, a quillboar priestess at the end. She teleports back to her hut during the fight.

Tactics

Kill or control her guards first. Then pull her out of her hut so she comes into melee. When she teleports back to her hut, the tank follows at once and picks her up again; the group re-positions with the tank rather than chasing on their own. She is a caster and a healer, so interrupt what she casts. Her death completes the Crone of the Kraul and A Vengeful Fate.

• Tank: Follow her teleport immediately.
• Healer: Move with the tank so you stay in range.
• DPS: Interrupt her casts; do not run into the hut ahead of the tank.

• Razorfen Kraul Dungeon Finder level: 0 in Era, 24 in Forever.

Written and checked by TheWoWDB on October 5, 2026. Abilities and tactics describe how these fights work in Classic Era; the WoW Forever beta can change any of them, and Blizzard has said boss loot and stats were reworked. Nothing here is a drop rate or a timing we measured. Loot rows come from the Adventure Guide match further down the page; the beta client cannot say how often anything drops.
