Read This Before You Trust a Reward
ForeverChanges states that a quest's text, objectives and rewards are not in the game client, so what it lists starts from Classic. Each quest page then marks what Forever changed, using server answers and what addon users saw. Most Stratholme quests read "Unchanged in Forever as far as is known". Confirm the item when the quest window opens.Reported, press or datamine, not confirmedSource: ForeverChanges: Stratholme Main Gate, Quests; ForeverChanges: Aurius' Reckoning, footer note; checked Nov 8, 2026.
Kami Labs marks these quests "Big XP bonus" from October beta data, so treat the XP column as a floor. Our dungeon XP guide covers the bonus.Reported, press or datamine, not confirmedSource: Kami Labs: Stratholme, quest cards, beta data; checked Nov 8, 2026.

Chains and Quest Items
These details come from wowf.io's guides and ForeverChanges.Reported, press or datamine, not confirmedSource: wowf.io: Stratholme Main Gate guide, Before you go and numbered stops; wowf.io: Stratholme Service Gate guide, numbered stops; ForeverChanges: The Medallion of Faith, Objectives; checked Nov 8, 2026.
Holy Water. Stratholme Holy Water for Houses of the Holy comes from the supply crates around the streets.
Plagued Flesh Samples. These drop from any mob in Stratholme.
The Restless Souls. Use Egan's Blaster on Ghostly and Spectral Citizens, then use it again on the soul that breaks free. Do not kill them.
The Great Ezra Grimm. The tobacco shop is at the dead end of the road left of the Main Gate. Opening the box brings out the undead shopkeeper, and you kill him for Grimm's Premium Tobacco.
The Medallion of Faith. Aurius starts this in Alonsus Chapel. Open the strongbox beside Malor the Zealous for the Medallion, and turn it in to Aurius, which leads to Aurius' Reckoning.
The Balnazzar line. Kill Archivist Galford and click the Scarlet Archive on the table behind him to burn it. Balnazzar's head then starts The Truth Comes Crashing Down, but only for players who already turned in The Archivist.
Scourge Data. This is a small box inside one of the three ziggurats, for The Active Agent.
Dead Man's Plea. Kill Baron Rivendare within 45 minutes of opening the Gauntlet gate to free Ysida Harmon. Talk to her to finish it. The Service Gate guide covers the route.
Menethil's Gift. Place the Keepsake of Remembrance on the glowing symbol on the floor in front of where the Baron stood. Scholomance's Ras Frostwhisper chain runs through this step.
Of Love and Family. Click the painting hidden behind the picture of the twin moons near the end of the building.
Argent Dawn reputation from these quests feeds the reputation guide. A route addon helps with these long trips, so compare RestedXP and Zygor, or read the Zygor vs RestedXP comparison.
Common Questions
Which quests finish on which side?
The table's Side column follows wowf.io. Some appear on both gate lists, such as Houses of the Holy and The Flesh Does Not Lie.
Which rewards are worth planning around?
ForeverChanges lists these rewards as Classic's, and most are unchanged as far as it knows. Check the quest window first.
