In World of Warcraft Wrath of the Lich King Classic phase three, the iconic raid Onyxia’s Lair is making a return. Since this raid has been upscaled to level 80, it has updated rewards and requirements you’ll need to meet before you can face off against the treacherous daughter of Deathwing.
Still located in the wilderness of Dustwallow Marsh, Onyxia’s Lair can be tricky to find, especially if you spend most of your time roaming the stunning streets of Dalaran. As I already mentioned though, it will be worth it since you can get various headpieces, weapons, a special mount, and even a 22-slot bag.
Onyxia’s Lair is a one-boss instance that can be cleared on a 10 and 25-man difficulty. If you’ve never been there and you’re scratching your head now because you have no clue how to connect portals and zeppelins to Dustwalllow Marsh, I got you covered.

How to get to Onyxia’s Lair as the Horde in WoW WOTLK Classic
Dustwallow Marsh is a swamp zone in central Kalimdor teeming with wildlife like alligators, ogres, and dragonkin. Assuming you’re heading to Dustwallow Marsh as a Horde from Dalaran, the easiest way to get there would be by using the portal to Orgrimmar in Sunreaver’s Sanctuary.
After that, you want to pay the local Flightmaster to fly you to Brackenwall Village in Dustwallow Marsh. From there, you’ll need to mount up and run to the raid entrance.

As part of the Alliance, assuming your starting point is Dalaran, you should head to Silver Enclave and take the portal to Ironforge.

Alternative way of getting to Onyxia’s Lair in WoW WOTLK
If you think this is just way too much traveling for you, you can take a portal to Caverns of Time in Dalaran in the Violet Citadel. Once you enter the Violet Citadel, the portal should be just up to stairs and to your left.
The portal will teleport you directly to Caverns of Time and, from there, head to Gadgetzan in Tanaris and speak to the Flightmaster to take you Dustwallow Marsh. If you haven’t unlocked a Flightpath in Dustwallow Marsh, you can fly to the Barrens and travel with your loyal mount to Dustwallow Marsh and Onyxia’s Lair.

Luckily for you, there’s no attunement quest or any similar prerequisites to enter Onyixia’s Lair. So, all you need to do to defeat this mighty and iconic black drake is to show your face around Dustwallow Marsh on raid night. If you’re lazy like me, you can just sit tight and wait for your raid to get there and summon you.
