Karazhan Crypts
Deep within Deadwind Pass beneath the Tower of Karazhan lies the forgotten Karazhan Crypts.
Sealed for centuries beneath the haunted spire of Karazhan, the Crypts have long been shrouded in forbidden magic. Ancient wards cast by the greatest magi of Azeroth kept the darkness imprisoned—until now. As the final seals weaken, a tide of evil rises from the forgotten depths, and it falls to you to confront the horrors that stir within.
Karazhan Crypts is an original dungeon on Project Ascension, bringing one of Azeroth’s most iconic unused locations to life. Within its haunted halls, you will face unique enemies, custom bosses, and brand‑new treasures. The dungeon is available at Level 60 and Level 70, with loot scaling to your level, rewarding those who dare to challenge its perilous trials.
New Questline: Unsealing The Crypts
In this haunting and emotionally charged questline, you are called to a land steeped in forgotten history and painful memories. Guided by a mysterious figure with ties to the past, you uncover a sealed crypt where the former Guardian Aegwynn imprisoned dangerous souls long ago. As the ancient magics binding the crypt begin to weaken, your task becomes clear: break the seals—but on your own terms. The journey begins with reclaiming arcane power hidden in the depths of a ruined cellar, a first step in unraveling the layers of powerful enchantments left behind.
Karazhan Crypts is a fully custom dungeon set beneath the long-sealed ruins of Kazan. Once protected by ancient magical wards, the crypts are now teeming with evil forces that threaten to escape.
