Quest

The Sanctum Wards

Isle of Quel'DanasLevel 25 - 30

What To Do

Complete the quest objective shown in your tracker in Isle of Quel'Danas, then return to the turn-in NPC.

Quest Text

Our first priority is to capture the Sun's Reach Sanctum. Once we've secured it, we'll be able to use its energy to open a portal from Shattrath. The sanctum is overrun with the Wretched - former blood elves who've devolved into mindless husks of their former selves. Its defenses would've normally prevented this intrusion, but the Wretched have stolen the power sources from the protective wards. Hunt down the Wretched and get the mana remnants they carry. Use them to energize the sanctum wards.

Completion Help

Start here

Check the quest area, faction, and level range before you travel. If this quest is part of a chain, finish nearby campaign quests in the same zone first.

Stuck?

Open the Wowhead page for coordinates, NPC spawn comments, cave entrances, and player-submitted route notes. WoW-God links out instead of copying community comments.

Group size

No group size is listed by Blizzard, so this is usually soloable unless the objective text says otherwise.

Tracking

Pin the quest in-game, enable objective outlines, and search the exact quest title if you need NPC or object coordinates.
