Ironforge — a guide to the dwarf and gnome city
Vanilla WoW Classic 1.12 · x5 realm · wowx5.ru
Ironforge is the capital of the dwarves and gnomes, a vast fortress-city carved into the mountain of Dun Morogh. It is built as a ring: every district branches from the central Commons, so it is almost impossible to get lost. For crafters it is the best Alliance city — the Great Forge gathers blacksmithing, engineering and mining under one roof.
Ironforge is circular: if you get lost, just walk the outer ring clockwise and you will reach the district you need. Bind your hearthstone to the inn in The Commons next to the bank and auction house.
Layout of the city
Ironforge is a large ring with a central square. The main areas:
| Area | What to find |
|---|---|
| The Commons | bank, auction house, inn, city center |
| Military Ward | warrior, hunter, rogue trainers |
| Mystic Ward | mage, priest, warlock trainers |
| The Great Forge | blacksmithing, engineering, mining |
| Tinker Town | gnomes, engineering supplies |
| Hall of Explorers | library, history, flight master nearby |
Everything centers on The Commons: from there any district is a short walk.
Bank, auction house and mail
All financial business happens in The Commons: the bank, auction house and mail stand around the central square. It is the second-largest Alliance auction house after Stormwind, and thanks to the tram prices on the two markets often flow into one another.
If you want to trade systematically, check the auction house guide and the gold making methods.
Trainers and professions
Trainers are split across two wards:
- Warriors, hunters, rogues — the Military Ward.
- Mages, priests, warlocks — the Mystic Ward.
- Paladins — trained in Ironforge by the dwarves of the Light.
The city's highlight is the Great Forge: blacksmithing, engineering and mining trainers stand next to anvils here. It is the ideal place to level crafts without running around.
Flight master and the tram
The gryphon flight master is by the Hall of Explorers — bind the route to fly across the Eastern Kingdoms.
The main transport artery is the Deeprun Tram, which carries you free between Ironforge and Stormwind in a couple of minutes. The tram entrance is in Tinker Town. For a full map of travel options see the travel guide.
