WoW Blog/Mana-Tombs

This article is a copy of "Timewalking Highlight: Mana-Tombs", an official blog by Blizzard Entertainment. It's about the Mana-Tombs dungeon that was made available for Timewalking.

In World of Warcraft Patch 6.2, we're introducing a new series of seven different weekend Bonus Events, two of which will feature Timewalking Dungeons—one in Outland dungeons for characters level 71 and higher, and another in Northrend dungeons for level 81 and higher. When you Timewalk these dungeons, your character's power and gear will be scaled down to a fraction of what they normally are, and as you may have never ventured into some (or any) of these dangerous places, it might be a good idea to prepare yourself now.

The original exiles on Draenor found death to be an unsettling and unfortunate consequence of life, and so the draenei hid their dead away in the subterranean grave-city of Auchindoun, a labyrinthine marvel located beneath the forests of Terokkar.

It is said that long ago, a shadowy cult invaded Auchindoun. In its depths, the cult released an immensely powerful, malevolent being from arcane captivity, blasting the decrepit city apart. Any adventurers brave enough to enter the abandoned, bone-littered remains of Auchindoun would do well to remember the warning of the city's original guardians, the Auchenai: those who do not respect the dead...

... may become entombed along with them.

• Be wary of the Mana Leeches when they're nearly dead. They explode.
• This is a good dungeon in which to practice using your dispels and cleanses.
• Pandemonius has a shield. Don't hit his shield.
• Keep an eye out for Tavarok's Crystal Prison. It can knock a lot of life off of the player inside.
• Don't let the orbs that fight you alongside Nexus-Prince Shaffar accumulate. They're deadly in numbers.

If you haven't earned these achievements already, completing this dungeon will award Mana-Tombs and Heroic: Mana-Tombs, the latter of which is required for Outland Dungeon Hero.

Killing enemies in this dungeon increases your standing with the Consortium. For a full breakdown of what you can do with Consortium reputation, check out Wowhead and Wowpedia.

Timewalking dungeons are coming to WoW with the upcoming Patch 6.2. Keep an eye out for the weekend-only quest A Burning Path Through Time (Warlords of Draenor), which rewards a Seal of Inevitable Fate when you complete five Burning Crusade Timewalking dungeons.
