Ironforge — Dwarf Capital City in WoW Classic
Vanilla WoW Classic 1.12 · x5 realm · wowx5.ru
Ironforge is the mighty capital of the dwarves and gnomes of the Alliance, carved into the heart of Dun Morogh. A vast underground city of stone and steel with a glowing Great Forge at its center — one of WoW Classic's most iconic locations. On WowX5 x5 Ironforge is the main Alliance trading hub: Auction House, Bank, profession trainers and the go-to resupply stop between dungeon runs.
The Ironforge and Stormwind Auction Houses share a single market. Items listed in one city are visible to buyers in the other.

Tips for WowX5 Players
1. Mailbox near the AH — use it to transfer gold and items between your own characters. 2. Anvils at the Great Forge — if leveling Blacksmithing, work in Ironforge: there's an anvil right next to the trainer. 3. On x5 leveling is fast — keep Ironforge as a bookmark for quick resupply between dungeon runs. 4. Gun Skill trainer is only available to dwarves in Ironforge — dwarf hunters train Gun Skill here.
