I did very few instances on the Horde side, especially the low-level ones, because when I started playing my Tauren Shaman I knew pretty much no one and I wanted to concentrate on my leveling.
My shaman, Grunman, is now level 66 and well able to clear l0w-level instances alone, so I sent him to Ragefire Chasm, a very low level instance smack in the middle of Orgrimmar.
Now I won’t be as precise as my other instance articles, because quite frankly, there is not much to talk about. The mobs are all level 13-16 Elites and are mostly Humanoids, but there are some Beasts and a few Elementals as well.
The uncommon (’green’) item drop rate is very good, if you are looking for things to disenchant. I did two runs and averaged about 15 bind-on-equip green items, as well as 2 or 3 bind-on-pickup Blues.
What is really exceptional about Ragefire Chasm is the Linen Cloth drop rate. In my two runs I managed to pick up 112 and 105 linen cloths, respectively.
Now you’re saying, Alex come on, that’s not very much… And you’re right, except for the little fact that the instance take me about 20 minutes to clear, killing every single mob. It would be even easier if you were doing with a Paladin or a Mage, since my Shaman basically has to kill all the mobs one by one.
In conclusion, if you are looking to run an instance for cash, Ragefire Chasm is not the place for you. However, if you are looking for Linen cloth to level Tailoring in a new toon, or for cheap and fast low-level Uncommon Green items for disenchanting or equipping said low-level toon, then you will not be disappointed.
A note of caution: Ragefire Chasm is Horde only. It is situated in the Cleft of Shadows right in the middle of Orgrimmar, and any Alliance character — except maybe a very high level rogue — would be hard pressed to make it there. I don’t think it would be worth it. Alliance people, stick with Deadmines!

Very good! I did that istance with friend, oh let’s call him Butt-head, ( a few peeps will know who I’m talking about..lol ) but at the lvl 18-23 ( we did it a couple of times)…my tauren shaman and a orc warrior, it took us longer than 20min at that lvl but maybe an 1.3 hr? That would be if we didnt have interuptions ( those darn kids and needing to be fed all the time!! ) but it is a fun instance, not too hard ( if you cant get a full group ) but not too easy on the other hand…but we made it through, and yes, linen abounds!!!
