Standard of Undercity Walkthrough
After completing Wreckage of Duskhaven in Act 3, Sylvanas asks the Death Knight to gather three rare components to forge a powerful battle standard for the Forsaken army.
Objectives
- Retrieve Spider Fang
- Retrieve Revenant Shard
- Retrieve Worg Heart
- Return to Sylvanas
The quest begins before the march toward Greymane Wall, so accept it before exploring the surrounding forest.
Where to find the three items
Spider Fang
Defeat the giant spider enemies in the nearby woodland. Once the elite spider falls, the objective updates immediately.
Revenant Shard
Continue through the haunted section of the forest and defeat the Revenant guarding the shard. This marks the second objective as complete.
Worg Heart
The final component drops from the Worg leader roaming the eastern wilderness. Collecting it completes every gathering objective.
Return to Sylvanas
Bring all three items back to Sylvanas. She crafts the Battle Standard of the Forsaken and awards it to the Death Knight before the assault on Liam Greymane begins.

Flesh Beast Walkthrough
This optional quest appears during the advance toward Gilneas Fortes.
A Val'kyr discovers a massive mound of corpses guarded by lingering Scourge forces and proposes raising them into a fresh undead army for the Forsaken.
Objective
Clear the Scourge around the pile of corpses.
How to complete it
- Move southeast from the main route.
- Eliminate every Scourge unit protecting the corpse mound.
- Allow the Val'kyr dialogue to finish.
- The optional quest completes automatically.
Although it's one of the shortest optional quests in Act 3, it's worth completing because it strengthens the Forsaken offensive before the larger siege.
Gilnean Reinforcements Walkthrough
While attacking Greymane Wall, a Dark Ranger warns that Gilnean reinforcements are approaching from multiple directions.
Instead of rushing Liam's fortress immediately, you can eliminate the surrounding military outposts first.
Objectives
- Destroy Base 1
- Destroy Base 2
- Destroy Base 3
- Destroy Base 4
- Return to Sylvanas
Why it's worth completing
Destroying all four reinforcement bases removes enemy production structures and greatly reduces the number of defending units encountered during the assault on Liam Greymane's stronghold.
Once the fourth base falls, Sylvanas confirms that the final assault will now be much easier.
All Optional Loot in Greymane Wall
Besides quest rewards, Greymane Wall contains several valuable equipment drops that can significantly improve your heroes before Battle for Gilneas.

Value: 1,250 Gold
This weapon is especially effective on agile melee heroes.
Horn of the Clouds
- A powerful utility artifact designed for siege battles.
Ability
- Creates a cloud over enemy defenses
- Disables nearby towers for 30 seconds
Use it before attacking heavily fortified choke points.
Gryphon Staff
Found while exploring the cleared reinforcement area. It's an optional treasure that rewards thorough exploration before advancing the story.
Orb of Lightning

It's an excellent pickup before the campaign's final confrontation.
