The Hall of Thanes

From the Great Forge, face the High Seat and take the webbed corridor on the left (43.5, 52.0). Stairs up lead to a quest giver. The crumbling path down leads to a bridge and the door. The lava under that path kills.

Reported as Alliance-only. Blizzard has not confirmed a faction lock.

Overlapping levels: Ruins of Lordaeron (15-20).

1. 

   Faldrim Anvilmar

   Patrols his tomb in the west wing. His curse turns you to stone and slows attacks. Keep him on the tank and Remove Curse if you can.

2. 

   Infurnus

   Fire elemental, called Magmatus on some sites. Combust hits all around it, so the tank faces it away. Crowd-control the engineers on the way in.

3. 

   Plunder

   Knocks up players near him and charges a random player, stunning them. Watch the healer.

4. 

   Durgen Dirgehammer

   Comes with two stone golems, a bleed and an area fear. Kill the golems first.
