Scarlet Monastery of Old - Farm Previously Unobtainable Scarlet Monastery Drops
Hallow's End is upon us, and many spooky things are brought up with it. With this year's Hallow's End, a special old place has risen from the dead: Access to the Scarlet Monastery of Old!
Prior to Mists of Pandaria, Scarlet Monastery was a single instance divided in four wings — Graveyard, Library, Armory and Cathedral. The expansion revamped the instance into two separate dungeons — Scarlet Halls (which merged the Library and Armory) and Scarlet Monastery (which merged the Graveyard and Cathedral). However, with the instance revamps, many sought-after loot drops were lost to time… until now.
In this post, we teach you how to find the new mysterious Scarlet Key that unlocks access to the dungeons, as well as returning loot!
Obtaining the Scarlet Key
The The Scarlet Key has a chance to drop from Loot-Filled Pumpkin, the daily reward from queueing into the Headless Horseman.
- You do NOT need to complete the introduction questline for the Scarlet Key to drop.
- UNCONFIRMED: Enabling Hard Mode on the Headless Horseman encounter increases the chance of the Scarlet Key to drop.
- You can attempt to loot the Scarlet Key as many times as you have alts eligible for the Loot-Filled Pumpkin — It does not only drop on the first attempt of the day.
- If you have unlocked Scarlet Monastery of Old already, you can help friends unlock it even after Hallow's End is over — The new The Scarlet Key also drops from the chest behind Arcanist Doan in the old version of Scarlet Monastery Library, just like the Classic version!
- The Scarlet Key is not bound to anything, so in the worst-case scenario, you can buy it from the Auction House.
