From Blizzard

Level 28–33. Alterac Mountains.

The barrier is down, the enchantments backfire and the constructs rampage. You enter through the sewers, and there is more than one path through.

  • The Horde is attacked on sight in the city itself. The dungeon is unaffected, and the Horde cannot earn Kirin Tor reputation.
