How do you get into the Scarlet Monastery Cathedral?

Through the locked door on the left side of the monastery hall, in north-east Tirisfal Glades. You need The Scarlet Key (from Doan's Strongbox in the Library) or a rogue with Lockpicking 175 (one source for the 175).

What level should you be for the Cathedral?

Most sources give 38-46; one site relays 35-45 from Wowhead.

Who are the bosses of the Cathedral?

High Inquisitor Fairbanks (optional), Scarlet Commander Mograine and High Inquisitor Whitemane, the final boss. Sources disagree on the kill order and on whether Mograine counts as a separate encounter: to verify at launch.

Does the Horde quest Into the Scarlet Monastery give a reward?

No reward is listed in Forever (known issue), and the Classic rewards no longer exist. We check it at launch.

Access

Key

The Scarlet Key (from Doan's Strongbox, Library) or Lockpicking 175.

Confirmed in Forever

A locked church, a hidden room behind a torch, and the two most devoted zealots in the Crusade waiting at the end. Mind your manners. Or don't.

Classic data — updated at Forever's launch

The Scarlet Monastery Cathedral is not playable in the beta (level cap 30). The description below comes from pre-launch data (game files and guides), not from play; we check each point in game at launch and update this page.

Who it's for

Level range: 38-46 in most sources (one site relays 35-45).
Both factions: each faction's Scarlet Monastery kill quest ends here, with Mograine and Whitemane.
Group: 5 players.

The route, in plain words

The hall. The monastery entrance is in north-east Tirisfal Glades (~85.1, 31.4).
The locked door on the left side of the hall (~85.3, 30.3). The Scarlet Key or a rogue's lockpicking opens it.
The trash. Mobs around level 34-40 (one source).
Fairbanks (optional) is hidden in a side room to the right of the altar; one source says a wall torch opens the door.
Mograine and Whitemane. Sources disagree on how this fight unfolds and in which order to kill them, so we don't give an order until we check it in game.

The bosses in one line each

High Inquisitor Fairbanks (optional, level 40): Curse of Blood (dispel it), Fear, Sleep, Power Word: Shield and a Heal to interrupt.
Scarlet Commander Mograine (level 42): Retribution Aura, Hammer of Justice (5-second stun), Crusader Strike, Divine Shield, Lay on Hands.
High Inquisitor Whitemane (final, level 42): Holy Smite, a Heal to interrupt, Power Word: Shield, Deep Sleep; one source adds Scarlet Resurrection on Mograine and Dominate Mind.

Quests to grab before you go

The Cathedral has no quest of its own, but these end here:

Alliance: In the Name of the Light, from Raleigh the Devout in Southshore (pick up and turn in there). Kill Loksey (Library), Herod (Armory), Mograine and Whitemane. Choice of Sword of Serenity, Bonebiter, Black Menace or Orb of Lorica.
Horde: Into the Scarlet Monastery, from Varimathras in Undercity. Same four kills, plus Undercity reputation. No item reward listed in Forever (known issue).
Horde: Hearts of Zeal, from Faranell in Undercity. The items drop from Scarlet humanoids; the reward is reputation.

Watch out

Get the key first: The Scarlet Key drops in the Library (Doan's Strongbox).
Interrupts: Fairbanks and Whitemane both heal.
Loot is not settled: one source lists Whitemane's Chapeau and Triune Amulet as missing from Forever data, and says Fairbanks' three items were reworked.
Experience: dungeon quests give half their bonus experience since Oct 1 (one source).
