| − | The '''Deadmines''' are expansive, winding tunnels dug out under [[Westfall]] and part of northwestern [[Stranglethorn Vale]]. It is the lowest-level [[Alliance]] [[instance]], and is populated by members of the [[Defias Brotherhood]]. Its entrance can be accessed in the town of [[Moonbrook]] in southwestern [[Westfall]], while its exit is located in the western part of the [[Dagger Hills]] near the ocean. The Deadmines is the center of the Defias operation, led by the ambitious [[Edwin VanCleef]], who is constructing a [[juggernaut]] at the bottom of the mines with the aid of the [[goblin]]s. Many quests occur in and around the Deadmines. |

| − | Prior to the [[First War]], the Deadmines were the greatest gold-production center in human lands. However, they were abandoned during the First War. During that time, [[Lothar|Lord Lothar]] ventured into the perilous Deadmines on a quest to obtain the [[Tome of Divinity]] but was captured by a band of ogres and held captive for 20 months. He was ultimately rescued and successful in his mission. It was also to the dungeons below the Deadmines to which [[Blackhand|Blackhand's]] daughter [[Griselda]] fled with the ogre [[Turok]]. Both were slain by an orcish raid. At that time, many [[slime]]s inhabited the dungeons but have not been encountered lately. |

| − | === Guide === |
||
| − | The tunnels leading to the instance portal first contain the level 15-16 [[Defias Digger]], [[Defias Henchman]], and [[Defias Conjurer]] mobs. Close to the instance portal, it will then have the level 16-17 [[Defias Worker]], [[Defias Watchman]], and [[Defias Magician]] mobs. The undead portion of the Deadmines has the level 17-18 [[Skeletal Miner]], [[Undead Dynamiter]], and [[Undead Excavator]] mobs. Three mini-bosses, [[Marisa du'Paige]], [[Brainwashed Noble]], and [[Foreman Thistlenettle]], exist outside of the instance. Inside the instance, it is full of level 17-18 [[Defias Miner]]s. It also has two kinds of level 17-18 Elites: [[Defias Overseer]] and [[Defias Evoker]]. |
||
| − | |||
| − | The first boss you encounter is the [[ogre]] [[Rhahk'Zor]]. He is a level-20 Elite, hits quite hard, and has high amounts of armor. He has two [[Defias Watchman|Defias Watchmen]] in his room. |
||
| − | |||
| − | The instance is populated with non-Elite Defias Strip Miners, and level-18 or -19 Elites. |
||
| − | |||
| − | After fighting Rhahk'Zor, you will fight more [[Defias Miner]]s, [[Defias Overseer]]s, and [[Defias Evoker]]s. You will then enter the Mast Room where [[goblin]] carvers are working on a mast for the [[dreadnaught]]. [[Sneed]] and his [[Shredder]] are the bosses here. He is level-20 elite. Sneed's Shredder is immune to burn, bleed, and concussion effects. After destroying his Shreeder, Sneed himself will jump out and attack you. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Immediately after Sneed's Shredder, you will then fight level 18-19 [[Defias Strip Miner]]s. It also has two kinds of level 18-19 Elites: [[Defias Taskmaster]] and [[Defias Wizard]]. You will then enter the Goblin Foundry, where the goblins are busy creating anchors and cannonballs for the Defias Dreadnaught. The [[Goblin Craftsman]] can be found there, along with the [[Goblin Engineer]] that can summon a [[Remote-Controlled Golem]], which will fight alongside them. [[Gilnid]] is the boss here. He comes with 3 adds. Killing him opens the door to the next area. |
||
| − | |||
| − | You will fight more [[Defias Strip Miner]]s, [[Defias Taskmaster]]s, and [[Defias Wizard]]s, and eventually come to an alcove which contains [[Defias Gunpowder]]. This should be looted as it is required to open the door to the docks. A [[Rogue]] can also attempt to pick the lock on the door. |
||
| − | |||
| − | If the party elects to blast open the door, you will alert [[Mr. Smite]], the [[tauren]] First Mate, who will send Defias Pirates to see what the disturbance was. If you pick the lock instead, you will not alert them. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Mr. Smite is the next boss. All adds should be cleared from the area (the ship ramp) before you engage him. There are two stealthed Elites ([[Defias Blackguard]]s)) at the bottom of the ramp. These should be eliminated before taking Mr. Smite on. Mr. Smite will perform a [[Warstomp]] and stun the entire party at 75% and 50% health. This stun cannot be interrupted or avoided. A notable exception to this is if a [[Hunter]] has maxed out his [[Hawk Eye]] talent, allowing him to snipe Mr. Smite at max range, allowing DPS to continue to do damage, and hopefully not pull aggro if the tank had built enough. Any adds still alive will continue to attack the party. Mr. Smite will run over to his chest, and take out a new, stronger weapon, and attack the party again. |
||
| − | |||
| − | The ship contains level-19 Elite [[Goblin Shipbuilder]]s, [[Defias Pirate]]s, and [[Defias Squallshaper]]s. The boss at the top is [[Captain Greenskin]], the ship's captain. He comes with two adds. |
||
| − | |||
| − | The final boss is [[Edwin VanCleef]]. He is a level-20 elite. He is hiding in the cabin on top of the ship. Attacking him will bring his two guards out as well. He can stun, and will summon more adds as his life gets low. The other boss is optional. After killing VanCleef, you can jump down the other side of the ship, and find more Defias. You will also find [[Cookie]], a level-19 elite Murloc who is also the ship's cook. After leaving the ship, you can continue to go up the path into the tunnel, which leads to the instance exit. |

| − | * Also known as VC (named for its final boss, [[Edwin VanCleef]]) to avoid confusion with another instance ([[Dire Maul]]) that shares the more obvious initials. When in doubt about "which DM" is meant, check the level of the person asking for a group; a lower level character is most likely referring to this instance and is unaware of Dire Maul, or of the use of "VC" as an abbreviation. |
||
| − | * [[Deadmines walkthrough|The Deadmines Instance Guide]] gives a walk-through of the instance. |
||
| − | * After defeating each of the first three bosses, 2-3 elite Defias mobs will wander and patrol that room and the mine around the boss room. Be careful when backtracking to a room, or running back after a death. These patrols can be evaded by hiding until they pass; the Shredder's ramp is one such hiding place (even though it does not look like you are hidden.) |
||
| − | * Defias Strip Miners do not run in fear when their health falls too low as other typical humanoid mobs do. |
||
| − | * The Deadmines has no [[herb]]s nor [[beast]] mobs to [[skinning|skin]]. There are [[vein|mineral veins]] to [[mining|mine]]. |
||
| − | * In the [[Goblin Foundry]] section of the instance are lootable engineering boxes that yield minor engineering ingredient items. |
||
| − | * This exit is just above the southwest limit of the Westfall coast. There are a few points of interest that can be reached relatively easily from this exit. If you go straight west, you bypass the Defias mobs (there are quite a few if you go north) and the coastal murlocs. You should see a dock. |
||
| − | ** The dock has a fish vendor, {{NPC|Alliance|Kriggon Talsone}}, who sells |
||
| − | *** {{loot|common|Recipe: Clam Chowder}} (one of two vendors) and |
||
| − | *** {{loot|common|Recipe: Spiced Chili Crab}} (one of three vendors, and the most easily accessed). |
||
| − | ** [[Westfall Lighthouse]] is just to the north, and you can pick up {{NPC|neutral|Captain Grayson||Captain Grayson's}} quests. |
||
| − | ***You might even have picked up enough {{loot|common|Flask of Oil|Flasks of Oil}} to complete {{questlong|Neutral|16|Keeper of the Flame}}. |
||
| − | ** For Alliance players, this is where you [[Stormwind to Booty Bay travel guide|start the swim]] to [[Booty Bay]] if you want to get there at a low level. |
||
| − | *** Swim south, stay away from the coast. |
||
| − | *** Stay on the surface — although if you stay in fairly deep water, there aren't any mobs. |
||
| − | **** ([[Herbalism|Herbalists]] can more or less safely harvest {{loot|common|Stranglekelp}}, but bypass any kelp near any mobs). |
||
| − | *** Stay out of the dark water, and if a fatigue bar procs, get into lighter colored water quickly. |
||
| − | *** Booty Bay is on the west side of the south point of [[Stranglethorn Vale]]. You should see the goblin statue as you approach. |
||
| − | *** Swim in to the eastern-most part of the dock, and you will see a ramp extending into the water; use this to climb out. |
||
| − | *** Find the Alliance [[flight master]] on a high tier '''north''' of the inn. (South is the Horde flight master.) |
||
| − | * If you travel to a small cove north of [[Yojamba Isle]] (in northwestern Stranglethorn Vale), you can see a large water gate which leads to the docks inside Deadmines. However, you cannot enter or leave through this. Interestingly, inside the Deadmines this gate exists to the North, but outside the gates exit to the South |
||
| − | ** Yojamba Isle is safe, the inhabitants are {{reputation|neutral}}, but if you are low level, you will not be able to do anything with them. |
||
| − | *Very popular [http://www.wow.com/2010/03/17/wow-moviewatch-welcome-to-the-deadmines/ video] which won the Rise to Power contest was based on The Deadmines and its bosses. |

| − | {{cat-section}} |
||
| − | In ''[[World of Warcraft: Cataclysm]]'' Deadmines will be completely revamped. With the Defias no longer an issue, a new boss and enemies will appear in this location. The dungeons level range will be slightly adjusted to 15-21 and also will gain a [[heroic mode]] for level 85 players.<ref>http://www.gameplanet.co.nz/pc/games/159702.World-of-Warcraft-Cataclysm/features/135035.20100613.Blizzards-Cory-Stockton-on-designing-Cataclysm/</ref> |
||
| − | |||
| − | Previously during BlizzCon, it was stated that "Edwin was back, and he's VanCleef-ier than ever..." and that a [[heroic mode|heroic]] version of Deadmines would be added for high level players. |
||
| − | |||
| − | While the heroic mode is still happening, Edwin VanCleef will mostly likely not return, but probably will be replaced by his [[Vanessa VanCleef|daughter]] instead. However, in the current build of beta, the heroic guild achievement for Deadmines requires you kill [[Cookie|"Captain" Cookie]]. It appears as if after VanCleef's death, the murloc instituted a mutiny and took over.<ref>http://youtu.be/vCnJo633c7U</ref> |
