Siege of Niuzao Temple Heroic Dungeon Guide (WoD 6.1.2)

Table of contents

1. Introduction

The Siege of Niuzao Temple is a 5-man dungeon located in Townlong Steppes, Pandaria. It is available exclusively for level 90 players and features four encounters: Vizier Jin’bak, Commander Vo’jak, General Pa’valak, and Wing Leader Ner’onok.

The Siege of Niuzao Temple takes place at a Mantid Forward Assault Camp, where the Mantid army is attempting to construct a bridge to attack Niuzao Temple. Players must assault the camp and defeat its leaders before the construction is completed.

The dungeon follows a linear progression, beginning inside a hollowed-out tree and leading to the Mantid stronghold before reaching the bridge. Players will encounter four bosses and various Mantid enemies along the way.
