Overview
Alcaz Prison stands on Alcaz Island, off the coast of Dustwallow Marsh. The Defias Brotherhood used it to hold nobles for ransom, and rumour has it that King Varian Wrynn was one of their prisoners. Today the Defias are fighting the naga for the island.
It's one of WoW Forever's nine new dungeons, a five-player run for levels 48 to 53. It sits alongside Blackrock Depths and the Sunken Temple, and gives both factions a new dungeon in the stretch before the level-55 runs. The next new dungeon is Blackmaw Hold.
Getting there
Alcaz Island lies in the sea north of Theramore Isle, off the north-east coast of the marsh. Swim across from the mainland; the island is home to the Strashaz naga, so clear a path on the shore before the whole group is in the water.
- Alliance: fly to Theramore, the closest flight point to the island.
- Horde: fly to Brackenwall Village in the north of the marsh, then ride east to the coast.
Dustwallow Marsh is contested, so travel to the coast as a group.
Who can go
Both factions can run Alcaz Prison. As in every dungeon, your group has to share your faction and your ruleset. Killing the last boss counts toward the Legacy challenge for the dungeons of the 46-60 range (Legacy).

Tips
- Tip
Go in with a tank, a healer and three damage dealers, and make sure someone brings crowd control: you face both Defias and naga.
- Tip
Stock food, water, healing potions and bandages, and train your new ranks before you leave town.
- Tip
Horde groups: meet at Brackenwall Village and travel to the coast together.
- Tip
Bring a water-breathing effect for the swim if your group has one.
