In the Cleft of Shadow. It's a big foggy portal, takes you in. Quick note, if you run away from something in there, its likely it'll wait at the zone for you, so be ready to go back in fighting.

wait long enough and they'll go away

what level should you be to solo this instance?

1. Varimathras in Lady Sylvanis's Chamber in Undercity gives one.
2. Warchief Thrall in the Valley of Honor in Orgrimmar gives a chain that ends in RFC (hidden enemies)
3. Neeru Fireblade right outside the instance gives one.
4/5. Some1 on the elder rise of Thunder Bluff gives 2 quests (he is not in the main tent on the elder rise, is in a smaller one)

For those who are wondering around what level you can be to solo this, I soloed it with my 27 Warrior. Given this is my first time playing a warrior, I am sure people can do it at a lower level than this. I ran through with dual-wield 15+ DPS swords and a little over 1200 armor. On a few mobs I had to pot simply because I didn't play it right. I ended up getting 4-5 gold from the greens in the AH and took 45 minutes to an hour (killing everything in the instance).

Those blues you saw drop were random world drops, like the Butcher for example.

RFC entrance is in Org in The Cleft.  Purplish glow from entrance will guide you in, as you enter cave, it's on your left lower level.

what is lowest lvl 2 get in rfc?

While entering Org., simply explain to any Horde who attack that you are only going to RFC and no where else.  They will understand and show you how to get there.  In fact, RFC is great for low level raids, so bring LOTS of 12 to 16's with you.

As`of 2.3, this instance will drop RARES. Booyah!

Yes Due to the patch this intance now drops some niffty blues :-)

yo and the blues are under 15 now so thats awsome

Actualy you can enter at LvL 8

Made a warrior last not got him to 8 and now my friend is just running me through constantly =X

You need to be at least lvl 8 to get into RFC... Please bump this. Just spent hour corpse running to find that out w/ my lvl 7... Woot!

Just a quick comment for people who want to farm this place for enchanting it drops mainly strange dust but can drop (has thing disenchantable to reciev) small glimmering shards and some other things a great place for beggining enchanters my first run i recieved 15 starnge dust which helped me a good deal.

Anyone know when I can start doing Heroic RFC? :)

Hello. I'm Groklah, the level 37 Orc Shaman that some of you may have or have not encountered. I'm here to tell you about how to conquer the Ragefire Chasm.

It's the easiest instance in the game, allowing players to go in by the level of 8. However, the suggested level is 13-18. Many of you will have fun times with your friends during this first instance!

However, due to it's relative position in the Horde city of Orgrimmar, it's considered Horde-only. This will introduce players to the instance system. I'm here to do just that!

Let's start.

At first, the enemies will be very simple. Level 12-13 (maybe even 14) Earthborer worms and at least one Lava Elemental are around the starting area. The Earthborers can hit like a truck, and they have an even worse trick (Earthborer Acid) that works like Sunder Armor. It stacked onto me about 3 times, and the armor reduced is absurd. It may even cause nature damage! This means doom for clothies, so keep them tanked at all times. The acid is only annoying to guys with mail.

The Elemental doesn't do very much. He just smashes the earth with his fists trying to do actual damage to you. Take him out with a tank.

There will be another Earthborer to the right, and one just up the path. Use a tank to destroy them, and protect the clothies. Remember, you can't dispel the acid (at least in no form that I know of), so that doubles the trouble.

2-3 more Earthborers will stand before you. Take them down the same you did with the previous four.

Soon, once you've looted your precious Gelatinous Goo and Slimy Ichor, you'll face an immense army of Ragefire Troggs and Ragefire Shamans. There will be one Shaman patrolling up and down, so rest and buff. Take down the patrolling Shaman with little difficulty, as long as he doesn't pull anyone else. Move onto the large army next.

3-4 Troggs (one may be a Shaman--they all look the same)will be waiting for you at the start of the Trogg wave. Troggs hit like hell, and are difficult to take down. You'll need as much damage as you can dish out. Off-tanks will be useful here, but protect your softer at all costs. If a shaman wearing cloth (or weak leather) is your only healer and he dies, this may spell doom upon your party. The key to this is to keep as many softer targets as you can alive.

There will be 3-4 Troggs on either side of the passageway when you kill the initial wave. You may undoubtedly pull them, unaware that you have, so rest and buff before attacking. There will also be Troggs in the middle, though there's only one every 15 feet or so. Make Trogg blood splatter on the ground, and make sure they aren't your healer's blood. Continue killing Troggs as you move on through the passageway. The Trogg lairs to the left and right are optional. There will be two Troggs guarding the passageway upwards: thet's where you want to go. Kill them easily, then continue.
