Shadowfang Keep Quests Guide
This guide lists all the quests you can do in the Shadowfang Keep dungeon: Horde quests, class quests, profession quests, quests you need to get before entering the dungeons, and quests you get inside the dungeons. The idea is to help you do all the quests in a single run of the dungeon.
For more information about the dungeon, please refer to our detailed Shadowfang Keep dungeon guide.
Excluding the Warlock and Paladin class quests, there are no Alliance-only or Neutral quests in Shadowfang Keep.
Below is a list of the quests available to players, as well as the level required to start them. All these quests are started outside the dungeon.
- [16] The Book of Ur
- [18] Deathstalkers in Shadowfang
- [18] Arugal Must Die
- [20] The Test of Righteousness (Paladin-only)
- / [20] The Orb of Soran'ruk (Warlock-only)
If you are not completing a class quest in this dungeon, you will need to be at least Level 18 to complete all of the quests. If you do have a class quest here, you will need to be Level 20.
Quests Started Outside Shadowfang Keep
Other than the Warlock and Paladin class quests, there are no Alliance quests in Shadowfang Keep.
Horde-only Quests in Shadowfang Keep
There are 3 Horde-only quests in Shadowfang Keep and they are as follows.
- Arugal Must Die (requires Level 18) — you must kill Archmage Arugal and collect his head. This quest is given by Dalar Dawnweaver at The Sepulcher in Silverpine Forest.
- Deathstalkers in Shadowfang (requires Level 18) — you will need to find Deathstalker Adamant and Deathstalker Vincent. You will be able to hand this in as soon as you enter the courtyard. Jump off the stairs to the right and you will see Deathstalker Vincent's corpse on the ground. This quest is given by High Executor Hadrec at The Sepulcher in Silverpine Forest.

Class Quests in Shadowfang Keep
Warlock
The Warlock class quest is The Orb of Soran'ruk, which requires you to collect the Large Soran'ruk Fragment from Shadowfang Keep. To obtain it, you will need to be Level 20 and can pick it up from Doan Karhan in The Barrens.
After you clear the courtyard, rather than going inside to where Razorclaw the Butcher is, go up the ramp until you find the Shadowfang Darksouls. Kill them for the fragment.
To fully complete this quest, you will also need to head to Blackfathom Deeps to collect the other fragments required.
Paladin
The Test of Righteousness requires Paladins to retrieve a number of items for Jordan Stilwell in Ironforge, so that he can craft a weapon for them.
This quest is part of a chain that can only be started once you have reached Level 20. The chain is as follows.
- The Tome of Valor
- The Tome of Valor
- The Tome of Valor
- The Tome of Valor
- The Test of Righteousness
- The Test of Righteousness
- The Test of Righteousness
This chain will reward Paladins with a solid weapon, Verigan's Fist, upon completing the final step.
Only one of the required items for The Test of Righteousness is located in Shadowfang Keep, Jordan's Smithing Hammer, which is found in the stables of the first courtyard. Note that the horses here can deal a large amount of damage, so be careful when trying to loot it.
The other items are found in Loch Modan ( Jordan's Refined Ore Shipment), Deadmines ( Whitestone Oak Lumber), and Blackfathom Deeps ( Purified Kor Gem).
Quests Started Inside Shadowfang Keep
There are no quests available to be picked up inside the dungeon. They are all started outside and must be obtained before going in.
