WoW Forever: How to Complete A Last Request (Full Walkthrough)

Every objective from the roadside corpse in Shen'dar Highlands to the turn-in inside Shen'dar Village.

Every objective from the roadside corpse in Shen’dar Highlands to the turn-in inside Shen’dar Village.

A Last Request is a short level 8 quest in the Skyborne starting region of WoW Forever, and it hands you no quest giver to talk to — just a body on the road. The whole thing runs on a tight loop: pick up a note, raid a watchtower for two personal keepsakes, kill whoever is standing on the roof, then carry it all back to the village.

Quick answer: Accept it from the corpse in Shen’dar Highlands, loot the Bloody Note, take two keepsakes from bodies inside West Pylon Watchtower, kill the boss on the top platform, then turn in at Shen’dar Village.

Everything sits inside one small stretch of road. The watchtower is west of the quest start, and the village turn-in is a short run back east, with Falaath Village visible on the map between the two.


Where A Last Request starts in Shen’dar Highlands

Open your map and look along the stone path running through Shen’dar Highlands. The quest marker sits directly on the road rather than at a quest hub, which is why plenty of players run straight past it on the way to the next camp.

Run to the corpse with the yellow exclamation point floating above it and interact with it. The quest dialogue for A Last Request opens exactly like a normal quest giver conversation. Click Accept.

Loot the Bloody Note lying on the ground next to the body. It is a separate ground pickup, not part of the corpse interaction, and it is easy to miss because it blends into the terrain.

West Pylon Watchtower: both ground floor pickups

Follow the path west to West Pylon Watchtower. Entering the ground floor also discovers the sub-zone, so you will see the location name appear on screen when you step inside.

Deal with the Al’Aketh Warriors patrolling outside the tower. They are ordinary single-pull mobs at this level, but there are several of them around the entrance and they will follow you inside if you leave them alive.
On the ground floor, loot the lucky feather from the first corpse. This is one of two quest items you hand over at the end, and both bodies are lying in the open on the same floor.
Loot the Shadowsong Family Signet from the second corpse on the same floor. Order does not matter — grab whichever body you reach first.

Check your quest tracker before you start climbing. Both keepsakes must show as collected, otherwise you will have to run back down the ramp after the boss fight.


Killing the boss on top of West Pylon Watchtower

The last objective is a named enemy standing on the open platform at the very top. A spiral ramp runs up the inside of the tower, so there is no jumping puzzle involved — just a climb.

Run up the ramp and engage the named skyborne enemy on the top deck. Because this is a busy early zone, other players are usually already fighting it. Grouping with them is the fastest route, and the kill still counts for everyone.

Your objective tracker flips to 1/1 the moment the boss dies. Loot the body before you drop the group — there is a chance at a regular loot roll on top of the quest credit.

You do not have to walk back down the ramp. Jumping off the top deck works if you have a slow fall effect available, and it drops you straight onto the road heading east.


Where to turn in A Last Request in Shen’dar Village

The turn-in NPC is not standing outside on the road. Open the Map & Quest Log and the marker points at Shen’dar Village, but you need to go through the doorway of the main structure and out toward the balcony to actually find the NPC.

Run east to Shen’dar Village, head inside the main building, and speak to the NPC carrying the yellow question mark. Hand over both keepsakes and click Complete Quest.

You know it worked when both quest items disappear from your bags and A Last Request drops out of your quest log entirely. If the question mark is still yellow after talking, you are missing one of the two ground floor pickups.


NPC and item names vary between beta builds

One thing worth knowing before you start comparing notes with other players: the names attached to this quest have shifted across builds. The route, the objective count and the locations are identical, but the text on your screen may not match what a friend sees.

Go by the marker and the location rather than the name. The corpse on the Shen’dar Highlands road, the two bodies on the watchtower ground floor, the named enemy on the roof and the question mark inside Shen’dar Village are the same five points regardless of what they are currently called.
