The entrance is in Feralas, at 62.0, 33.3 on the zone’s map.

Wings

Dire Maul is 3 separate runs, each with its own door and its own bosses:

• Dire Maul - East
• Dire Maul - North
• Dire Maul - West

Who to bring

This is a level-60 dungeon, so it asks more than the early ones (Level-60 dungeon demands).

• East: mostly demons and elementals, so Banish is the control; Polymorph and Shackle Undead are mostly useless, and Lethtendris's imp Pimgib cannot be Polymorphed. It asks for all four dispel types: magic (Intense Pain, Immolate), curse (Curse of Tongues and Thorns), poison (Enervate) and disease (Wither). Interrupt Pusillin's Fireball, Lethtendris's Void Bolt and Alzzin's Wild Regeneration.
• West: Ironbark treants and arcane elementals (both banishable), Highborne ghosts and skeletons, imps and Dread Guards. Bring magic dispels (Entangle, Grasping Vines, Shadow Word: Pain, Immolation Trap) and a disease cure for Infected Bite on the tank. Interrupt Kalendris, and expect Counterspell from Tortheldrin. Shackle Undead works on ghosts such as Tsu'zee.
• North: ogres, Gordok mastiffs (beasts), Doomguard and warlock demons. Magic dispels help against Cho'Rush's shields, scream and Frost Nova; interrupt his heals. Bring Fear Ward or Tremor Totem for Kromcrush's shout, and expect healing reduction from Mortal Cleave and Mortal Strike.
• Tanks: a second tank, or a class that can hold one add, for the imps Alzzin calls, Kromcrush's Reavers and Stomper Kreeg's threat resets.
• Tribute run: a Rogue or other stealth class, Frost Oil and a Thorium Widget, and the Gordok Ogre Suit make the North's tribute run possible.

Lore

Eldre'Thalas was the Shen'dralar's city, built by Highborne arcanists who stayed behind after the Sundering. Its prince, Tortheldrin, bound the demon Immol'thar in a prison below the gardens. Satyrs and corrupted treants took the eastern Warpwood Quarter, ogres of the Gordok clan hold the northern Gordok Commons, and the western Capital Gardens are haunted by Highborne ghosts and arcane creatures.

The client holds one level number for the whole dungeon (dungeon levels are a single number in the client), so wing level ranges are not in client data. The Feralas zone list shows East from 54, West and North from 56.
