The '''Shadow Labyrinth''' is one of four [[instance]]s in [[Auchindoun]]. It is occupied almost entirely by [[orc]]s and [[demon]]s from the [[Burning Legion]], such as [[felguard]]s and [[shivarra]]s. The instance comes to an end with a confrontation against the essence of sound. The instance should take about 2 hours plus to complete.

Links that do not conform to the rules will be DELETED.
Access into the instance (through the south end of Auchindoun) is beyond a locked door. Entry requires one person in the party to possess the [[Shadow Labyrinth Key]], or a rogue with a [[lockpicking]] skill of 350. The key drops from [[Talon King Ikiss]], the last boss of [[Sethekk Halls]], which is also an instance wing of Auchindoun.

Have a nice day. :) -->
The entire group does not need to have the Shadow Labyrinth Key. One person with the key can open the door for the rest of the group. It is also possible for no one in the group to have the key, nor have a rogue. A player outside of the group can open the door, and the group can freely pass through it until it closes. Also, a player from inside the door can pull a nearby [[lever]] to instantly open it. An alternative method is dying in close proximity to the door, then resurrecting on the other side of it. Unequip your armor to prevent durability loss.

== History ==
 
The Shadow Labyrinth is populated by forces of the [[Shadow Council]].
 
 
== Reputation ==
 
Normal trash mobs give 12 reputation to [[Lower City]] per kill (15 in Heroic); larger mobs, such as Fel Overseers and Malicious Instructors, give 24 (30 in Heroic). All bosses give 120 reputation (250 in Heroic mode). An average run, killing only the mobs needed to reach the end, gives approximately 2,000 reputation.
 
 
== Walkthrough ==
 
=== Bosses ===
 
*[[Ambassador Hellmaw]] -- is kept banished by a number of shadow council minions in the second large room in the Shadow Labyrinth. Defeating the last group of banishers frees him. He has an area effect fear with about a 40 yard range, and a nature based venom spit that also reduces armor.
 
*[[Blackheart the Inciter]] -- his primary special ability is "incite chaos," which is like a mind control on all party members, who then fight each other using all available cooldowns.
 
*[[Grandmaster Vorpil]] -- calls for aid when attacked, causing voidwalkers to spawn at an increasing rate. The voidwalkers move slowly to Vorpil, and when they reach him heal him and damage the party. Many consider Vorpil the most difficult boss of this instance in normal mode. In Heroic, he also has a banish ability.
 
*[[Murmur]] -- is a powerful sound-based elemental who has been summoned by the [[Shadow Council]], who seem to be having trouble keeping him under control. Murmur does not move in combat; his special abilities include a sonic boom area damage effect, a spell that causes an explosion centered on a target player character, and when no player characters are in melee range, a debuff increasing vulnerability to nature damage. In heroic mode, he also has an ability that causes damage to those outside the range of his sonic boom and the explosion effect teleports all players to the target.
 
 
See the individual boss pages for more detailed information and strategies.
 
 
=== Trash ===
 
Throughout this instance, careful pulling may be required to avoid fighting more than one group at a time, though less so than prior to patch 2.1. Even with good pulling, there are some difficult groups of 5 or 6 enemies and good crowd control is essential. Keep the cultists off the healers in your group, and take down the caster enemies first. In heroic mode, most trash is on an approximately 8 hour respawn timer.

There are several very difficult pulls in the room with the second boss, Blackheart the Inciter. One viable strategy to thin the mass of trash mobs to more-manageable pulls involves a priest, another party member that can ressurect, and everyone save the priest staying back in another room to prevent aggroing. The priest mind controls a single mob forcing the others to attack and kill it. The priest will get killed, but they can be resurrected to mind control again. Since the priest is going to die, they can remove all items that can take durability damage. This may be slower than traditional pulling, but it is highly effective.
 
 
There are also several trash pulls just before Murmur. After the first two guards, these are in rows of four, with mages in between. If you pull a row while a mage is between that row and the next, both the mage and the next row are likely to come along. Any CC is very helpful. Pulling far back and using timed fear bombs can also help.
 
 
The best way to handle these pulls is to wait for Murmur to kill the mage behind the row to be pulled. About 15 seconds after a mage dies, a new one will spawn. Use this time to pull the whole row back. Avoid using crowd control abilities like sap or sheep near where the mobs start, or the mage respawn will come out and bring the next row with it. Instead, fear or sheep the adds as far back as possible after the pull. Done correctly, this limits the pull to 4 mobs. Once each row is killed, the 'filler' mage stops respawning.
