<br />
== Encounter identity ==<br />
The archived Forever client '''1.60.1.70291''' associates encounter '''3303''' with [[City of Dalaran]], map '''2959'''.<ref name="client">[https://wago.tools/db2/DungeonEncounter?build=1.60.1.70291 Forever DungeonEncounter; archived export retrieved 9 October, row reviewed 10 October]; reviewed 10 October 2026.</ref> This association does not supply a tested route or a mandatory encounter order.<br />
<br />
== Preparation ==<br />
Spread for Bounding Mana; avoid close Arcane Explosion.<ref name="guide">[https://www.wowhead.com/forever/guide/city-of-dalaran-dungeon-overview-location-rewards Riyani’s written Forever dungeon guide], updated 9 October; reviewed 10 October 2026. Gameplay build unreported.</ref><br />
These are written-guide observations, not wiki-tested timings or guaranteed behavior in every beta build.<br />
<br />
== Independently checked spell records ==<br />
* '''Mass Polymorph''' ('''1303598'''): The linked tooltip describes nearby enemies becoming unable to attack or cast for up to 8 seconds. It lists a 1.5-second cast and Magic dispel type.<ref name="spell1303598">[https://www.wowhead.com/forever/spell=1303598/mass-polymorph Forever spell 1303598], reviewed 10 October 2026; exact capture build unreported.</ref><br />
<br />
The links identify the spell records cited by the guide. A tooltip does not establish encounter cast frequency, target-selection rules or all interrupt restrictions.<br />
<br />
