This Nightmare Dungeon tier list breaks down the best Nightmare dungeons for you to farm based on what activity or goal you are trying to achieve. The categories are as follows:

  • Overall Tier List
  • Solo XP Farming
  • Glyph Level Farming

This tier list is currently updated for patch 1.1.1, and will be constantly updated.

Overall Tier List

If you do not have a specific goal in mind and just want to farm Nightmare dungeons in general, as efficiently as possible, this is our ranking based on multiple factors such as XP/hour combined with mob difficulty and types of objectives in the dungeons.

Solo XP Farming

These are the Nightmare Dungeons we currently suggest for Solo XP farming based on the XP/hour you can achieve, based on density of Elites and fluidity of the dungeon pathing.

For this season we had to make an S+ Category just for Uldur’s Cave as it it far and away the best nightmare dungeon to run for solo XP.

This XP data is based on a level 70-75 character completing a Nightmare dungeon where the mobs are at least 3 levels above the character and an Elixir is always being used.

Glyph XP Farming

These are the dungeons we suggest based solely on time to complete them for Glyph XP Farming.
