Maraudon: Full Dungeon Walkthrough
Vanilla WoW Classic 1.12 · x5 realm · wowx5.ruMaraudon is a winding cavern in Desolace, defiled by centaur and earth elementals. This level 40–48 dungeon splits into orange and purple halves, with the mistress Princess Theradras waiting deep inside. It's full of foliage, water and good loot.

How to Get There
The entrance is a rock cleft in southern Desolace. There are two outer portals — orange and purple — plus a shared inner entrance. The easiest path is both wings back to back: orange (Razorlash, Noxxion) and purple (Lord Vyletongue), then through Celebras into the inner hall to the Princess.
Key Boss Tactics
| Boss | Tip |
|---|---|
| Noxxion | Orange wing. Splits into slimes when damaged — AoE the adds and keep the poison under control. |
| Razorlash | A plant boss that burrows and hits an area. Don't scatter far, heal through the bursts. |
| Lord Vyletongue | Purple wing. Duplicates himself and shoots a bow — focus the real one, remove invisibility. |
| Meshlok the Harvester | Hides in the vine, appears on click. Optional but drops loot — quick burst. |
| Celebras the Cursed | Opens the passage to the inner hall and teleports the group. Killing him grants the Scepter of Celebras quest. |
| Landslide | An earth elemental in the inner hall. Heavy melee damage — tank faces it away, DPS behind. |
| Rotgrip | A crocolisk in the underwater section. Drags you into the water — keep the healer's line of sight. |
| Princess Theradras | Final: an earth elemental who casts Boulder and summons rocks. Break the rocks, all damage into the Princess. |
Useful Quests
The main reward is the Scepter of Celebras quest (after killing Celebras the Cursed): the scepter opens a permanent shortcut into inner Maraudon. Also grab Cenarion Circle quests on the elementals and centaur — reputation and XP. Quests are in Desolace and from the Cenarion druids.
Valuable Loot
Key loot: staves and weapons off Princess Theradras, a nature-resistance set, rings and trinkets from the inner bosses. Useful for casters and healers before the AQ raids.
Tips for the x5 Server
On x5 Maraudon is cleared around level 44–48. Get the Scepter of Celebras on your first run — it saves time for every future group. Bring nature resistance and a healer with spare mana: the inner hall is long and grindy.
