The Relic Keeper awaits in Dalaran.

Red quests — don't worry

The chain's quests are level 85, so they are marked red in the quest log. This is normal and doesn't mean they can't be completed at level 80.

The Relic Trail

The nine quests go strictly in order: the next one unlocks once the previous one is turned in. The exact objectives of each step are in the quest log.

What you'll face along the way

Five dungeons

Three of the quests require clearing 5 Northrend dungeons each.

Anub'arak ×3

A separate quest: defeat Anub'arak three times in Trial of the Crusader — 10-player, Heroic mode.

Dungeon seals

The remaining quests are about dungeon seals.

Tip

Anub'arak is a raid boss, so it's better to assemble a group of ten in advance. By the rules, a 10-player raid must have at least 4 real players; the rest can be filled with bots.

Dungeon seals

Seals are quest items. They drop with a 100% chance from the final bosses of Northrend dungeons in Normal and Heroic modes. Each seal has its own icon, one per dungeon.

To be confirmed

Whether seals drop if you haven't picked up the quest yet is to be confirmed. It's safer to pick up the chain before heading into the dungeon.

Necks: tier 1 → tier 2

At the end of the chain you hand in a tier 1 neck (sold in the Shop) and receive a tier 2 neck of item level 290. There are six variants — by role.
