The Burning Crusade Instances
Guides and resources related to instances requiring The Burning Crusade.
If you are looking for instances that are not part of The Burning Crusade then see our original "Instance Encyclopedia". If you need more information on instances themselves, then please see our "Instances Guide" which goes into detail about how instances work (including information on heroic difficulty instances).
Below is a list of available instances in The Burning Crusade along with any resources to assist you in defeating the rather difficult bosses located within each instance.

This background for non-raid instances. These are usally 5-man instances designed for a balanced group of 5 players. Some of these dungeons contain "Heroic" difficulty modes where the dungeon difficulty is increased with stronger enemies and more of them. These dungeons are generally accessed with keys obtained from reputation vendors. |
This background is for raid instances. Raid instances generally require more then 5 players to join a raid group to attempt the dungeon. Raid instances normally have better gear then standard difficulty non-raid instances. |
