Gnomeregan — WoW Classic Dungeon Guide

◆Gnomeregan — The Fallen Technological Marvel
Gnomeregan is the former gnome capital, overrun by troggs and irradiated. A multi-level dungeon with a unique Slime radiation mechanic. On WoW Classic X5 a group of levels 22–28 clears in 60–90 minutes.
A breakdown of every fight lives on the All Gnomeregan Bosses page.
Bosses
| Boss | Level | Key Mechanic |
|---|---|---|
| Grubbis | 29 | Pet Chomper, trogg waves |
| Viscous Fallout | 26 | Radiation, AoE |
| Electrocutioner 6000 | 28 | Chain lightning |
| Crowd Pummeler 9-60 | 30 | Stomp, famous mace |
| Mekgineer Thermaplugg | 32 | Final: walking bombs, dispensers |
Route
Gnomeregan is one of Classic's longest dungeons. Multiple levels downward:
- Entrance → Tunnel of Mechanical Arms → Grubbis
- Toxic Airfield → Viscous Fallout
- Lower levels → Electrocutioner 6000 → Crowd Pummeler 9-60
- Hall of Gears → Mekgineer Thermaplugg
Irradiated — radiation debuff stacks in contaminated areas. 10 stacks = death. Take breaks, remove with Purify (Paladin) or wait for decay. Most dangerous for careless groups rushing through the Slime sections.
Gnomeregan is a long dungeon — plan 60–90 minutes. On x5 rates XP is exceptional: a full clear can yield 2–3 character levels.
Quests
Gnomeregan has an extensive questline. Pick up from NPCs in Ironforge (Alliance: Dun Morogh) or through the Gnomeregan quest chain available to Horde via a goblin NPC in Booty Bay. The Radiation Neutralizer quest is required for the final clean run.
Loot
| Item | Slot | Class |
|---|---|---|
| Electrocutioner Leg | Staff | Casters |
| Charged Gear | Ring | Casters |
| Crowd Pummeler 9-60 | Two-handed mace | Warrior/Druid |
| Thermaplugg's Central Core | Shield | Tanks |
