Map
A map of Onyxia's Lair with 1 floor, stitched from the Forever client's own minimap art (Forever client), with the bosses numbered in the order the client gives (their spots are Classic spawn data until players confirm them in Forever).
The map shows 4 packs of 4 mobs and 3 patrol paths, 0 of the packs marked high danger, with what each pack holds, what to watch for and suggested marks (Classic data from CMaNGOS: Forever may have moved them).

Worth it for: Uther's Strength (top pick for Discipline Priest and 4 more specs at level 50/60); Deepfury Bracers (top pick for Beast Mastery Hunter and 2 more specs at level 50); Guttbuster (top pick for Assassination Rogue and 2 more specs at level 50).
How to run it
How Classic's Onyxia plays, from well-established Classic strategy. Blizzard's raid overview of 20 October names Onyxia's Lair as one of three raids for Forever: if the fight differs from Classic, this guide will follow once players' logs show it.
One boss, a level 60 dragon in a cave in Dustwallow Marsh. The fight has three phases: tanking on the ground, a flying phase with fireballs and whelps, then fear and more whelps once she lands again. Positioning and fear protection matter more than gear.
Before you go
- Level: Level 60.
- Group: 40 players in Classic: 2 to 3 tanks, 8 to 10 healers and the rest damage dealers. A well-geared group can do it with fewer.
- Getting in: In Classic each faction has an attunement questline that ends with the Drakefire Amulet, which you need to enter. The lair is in the Wyrmbog in Dustwallow Marsh.
- Resistance: Fire resistance helps the raid against her breath and fireballs. It isn't required in Classic.
- Bring: Fire Protection Potions; Flasks or elixirs and food; Healing and mana potions for the whelp phase
- Who you need: A priest with Fear Ward for the main tank and a shaman with Tremor Totem for the fear in phase 3; Ranged damage that can spread out in the whelp phase; A second tank to pick up whelps
Trash
- Whelps hatch from eggs in the side caves on the way to Onyxia: pull them in small groups and don't wake the whole cave.
Bosses
1 bosses, in the client's order (Forever client).
1. Onyxia
Onyxia has three phases. On the ground the tank holds her and the raid avoids her front and tail. At about 65% she takes off, then lands again at about 40% and fears the raid while whelps keep coming.
- Phase 1, until about 65%: the main tank holds her facing away from the raid, with melee at her sides. Nobody stands in front of her or behind her.
- Phase 2, until about 40%: she flies, casts Fireball at areas of the room and sends out whelps with Summon Onyxian Whelps. Her Deep Breath sweeps across the cave: move out of its path.
- Phase 3, from about 40%: she lands again, fears the raid and keeps summoning whelps. Burn her down and let tanks and ranged deal with the whelps.
- Healers keep the main tank up in phase 1 and the whole raid up in phases 2 and 3.
Tank
- Face her away from the raid: her breath Flame Breath hits everything in front of her.
- Knock Away knocks you back: keep a second tank ready to pick her up if you lose her.
- In phases 2 and 3, a tank picks up whelps and brings them together, away from the raid.
Healers
- Spread out so one Fireball or breath doesn't hit several healers.
- Fear in phase 3 can stop your healing: use Fear Ward on the main tank and have Tremor Totem down.
- Top up everyone caught by a breath.
Damage dealers
- Stay out of her front (Flame Breath, Wing Buffet) and her back (Tail Sweep).
- Phase 2: ranged keep damaging her while she is in the air, and melee help with whelps.
- Phase 3: whelps stacked together feed Cleave on the tank, so kill them and finish her quickly.
What wipes groups
- The raid standing in her breath in phase 2.
- No Fear Ward or Tremor Totem on the tank in phase 3.
- Too many whelps loose at once while she is still up.
