World of Warcraft - Pit of Saron Guide

Pit of Saron is the second of three World of Warcraft dungeons known collectively as the Frozen Halls. These instances are designed for level 80 characters. Located inside a secured area of Icecrown Citadel on the western side, the Pit is the instance portal on the right of the meeting stone located inside. There are three bosses in Forge of Souls: Forgemaster Garfrost, Ick & Krick, and Scourgelord Tyrannus.

 The Pit of Saron as described by Blizzard:

Accessible only to those who have laid waste to the Forge of Souls' unholy operations, the Pit of Saron will bring Horde and Alliance forces deeper into the Lich King's domain. Players who venture here will immediately be confronted by the lord of this lair, Scourgelord Tyrannus. But defeating him will not be as easy as it seems. Before they can present a threat to Tyrannus, the adventurers, instructed by their leaders, will need to free enslaved allies who have been trapped by the Scourge. Until that happens, Tyrannus will leave all adversaries to his minions, workers of the citadel's mines. Perhaps the challenges here will lend clues as to the whereabouts of the Lich King's private chambers outside of the Frozen Throne, deep within the Halls of Reflection.

 Before beginning their adventure into the Pit of Saron, players should be aware of a few things:

• You must complete Forge of Souls first. You must have completed Forge of Souls once, either on normal or heroic, in order to access the Pit of Saron.
• The pit in the center can be fallen into. A large pit takes up the center of the quarry in the Pit of Saron, and it can be fallen into by players. However, unlike the sudden death that will come to players who fall off the walkways in the Forge of Souls, there is a pool of water at the bottom for safety, and there is a way to climb up safely out of the pit.
• This instance is the best to farm for the Battered Hilt. If you're looking for the item that allows you to get Quel'Delar, this is the best place to do so, simply because of the sheer amount of trash mobs in the Pit.
