Dungeon Entrances

A complete list of the locations of entrances for all the dungeons in Rift – Starting with a compact quick guide and then moving on to a much more detailed guide.
You can find Raid Entrances here.

There are 2 dungeons with Master mode; Darkening Deeps, and Caduceous Rise. These dungeons have a couple of extra bosses and are slightly more difficult than the expert versions. Master mode dungeons reset twice a week on a Wednesday and Sunday.
