Catacombs: Private Adventuring

Instanced Dungeons

Glowing doors in Classic and Catacombs dungeons indicate entrances to your own instanced areas.

Private adventuring, also known as instancing, is the option to explore an area that is created for you to utilize at your own pace. When in an instanced area, only members of your group have access to the zone. This eliminates the need to compete with players outside of your group for monster spawns.

You can enter an instance either solo, or with your group. You can invite others to join you simply by inviting them to your group. The new member simply needs to walk through the same entrance to join you, and the rest of your group.

Monsters in instanced areas do not respawn, providing a unique gameplay experience. This feature allows you to move through the area at a speed with which your party is comfortable.

Glowing doors in Classic and Catacombs dungeons indicate entrances to your own instanced areas.

In the unfortunate event that you and/or your companions should die in an instance, you can find your gravestone(s) at the entrance where you first zoned in. The instance will remain activated for five minutes, after all group members have left or released from the dungeon. This will give you the chance to go back in before the instance resets itself.
