Build your Starter Pack →Where is Krol'dok Stronghold in WoW Forever?
The stronghold stands in the
Riverglades, the new zone on the east coast of the Eastern Kingdoms. Its neighbours are
Redridge Mountains, the
Burning Steppes and the
Badlands. Its
quests cover the mid-30s to the mid-40s.
Blizzard describes Krol'dok as a sprawling fortress of workshops, encampments and guarded interior passages.
Blizzard sends you along the trail of the ogre outrunners to the stronghold. It also asks you to look into the strange chanting heard from the stronghold after nightfall.
Why some guides say 40 to 55
The BlizzCon panel in September named levels 40 to 55. Blizzard corrected the stronghold to 40 to 45 a few days later. Its 20 October
dungeon article prints 40 to 45 as well.
The route up the hill and the Krol'dok keys
The whole run is a climb. The path winds between crude ogre buildings, rises up the hill and crosses a large wooden bridge to the top, where the largest buildings stand.

Krol'dok Compound Key and the
Krol'dok Ogre Key. Which doors they open is not published yet.
