Season of Discovery Phase 4: Demon Fall Canyon – Everything You Should Know!

INTRODUCTION

Hello everyone and welcome to another InstantCarry blog post. Season of Discovery Phase 4 is officially out and there are many things that are new and exciting. In this post we will cover everything that you should know regarding the newest Demon Fall Canyon Dungeon that was added with the release of SoD Phase 4.

Dungeons are always fun, and in SoD even more so. Having various Runes and different playstyles for all Classes can change the way things work in Dungeons and can give us the ability to push faster, easier and more bold when going into various mob packs and speed running.

So far we’ve seen Classes and Runes being changed and moderated, buffed and nerfed as well as having Dungeons reworked and turned into Raids. What we haven’t seen however is a new Dungeon or Raid being introduced.

Well hold on to your seats because with Season of Discovery Phase 4, we see our brand new Dungeon being implemented and I must say it is looking good. Demon Fall Canyon is not only a new Dungeon, but also a new source of pre-bis items for a Character, so it would be wise to get attuned and start farming!

Without further ado, let’s get into it!

Where is Demon Fall Canyon Located? 

Demon Fall Canyon is located south-west of the Warsong Lumber Camp In Ashenvale. At the spot called Felfire Hill that is swarming with Demons, you will find the entrance to the Dungeon at the actual canyon entrance in Felfire Hill. However you will need to be attuned and have the trinket equipped in order to see the entrance and enter the Dungeon.

Are there any attunement requirements?

The attunement Quest for Demon Fall Canyon is picked up at the Shadowtooth Emissary – The Wild Offering Vendor. Before you are able to pick up the attunement Quest, there are a few requirements that have to be met:

• Your character needs to be Level 55
• You must have completed the Wild Gods Quest (the Wild Offering Vendor requirement)

Demon Fall Canyon Attunement Guide

Once you’ve met the level and quest requirement, and you have the Shadowtooth Emissary as a Wild Offering Vendor, you will be eligible to pick up the Quest called: ” Demonic Deceptions “. This Quest will take you to Winterspring and require you to defeat Owlbeasts until you get 6 Owlbeast Pineal Gland.

When you have the glands you will go back to the Shadowtooth Emissary and turn them in. Your reward will be the trinket Shadowtooth Illusion Ward.

With this trinket equipped you head to the Demon Fall Canyon in Ashenvale, and you’ll see the Dungeon entrance.

Which Bosses are there in the Demon Fall Canyon Dungeon? 

There are 6 Bosses in total that you’ll encounter in the Demon Fall Canyon Dungeon. Those are:

• Grimroot
• The Destructor’s Wraith
• Zilbagob
• Pyranis
• Diathorus the Seeker
• Hellscream’s Phantom

We will explain how to defeat each and every Boss below.
