How to get to Khaz Algar in WoW The War Within

Khaz Algar is the new World of Warcraft region accessible only to those who play The war within expansion. Like all new areas added to Blizzard’s MMO, there are a few tricky steps you’ll have to take to get there for the first time.

Here’s how to do it find and unlock Khaz Algar in The war within extension.

You will first arrive in Khaz Algar in The war within just by after the campaign. The first mission you receive for the War within campaign is “Slept like a log,” which tasks you with returning to Dalaran. From here you will complete a series of quests that task you with saving the citizens and defeating spiders. Finally you will complete the “Departure” quest, which ends with you taking the gate to Khaz Algar.

I’ve added a full list of missions and the main objectives you need to complete for each one The war within Quest to reach Khaz Algar.

1) Slept like a baby

  • Objective: You must return to Dalaran.
  • How to complete the mission: Follow the mission marker to a portal in your faction’s city. You will then be taken there.

While I was playing Alliance, there was a portal in the Trade District with a quest marker that I had to take. There will be something similar in Orgrimmar for those who play Horde.

2) A mysterious warning (commissioner: Magni)
