• Battle for Crusaders' Pinnacle

<Highlord Fordring holds a banner of the Argent Crusade.>

This banner is like no other,. It carries with it a powerful blessing, able to sanctify large tracts of blighted land.

You must take it northwest, through the Breach, to an area the Scourge have mockingly named Crusaders' Pinnacle. Plant the banner atop the skulls of our fallen brethren at Crusaders' Pinnacle and defend it against attack. Once the land is sanctified, return to Father Gustav.

Go now,. Hold no fear in your heart.

• Blessed Banner of the Crusade (provided)

Have we broken ground?

Blessed Light! We have taken the pinnacle! Finally, construction of Justice Keep can begin. Highlord Fordring and the knights are already en route to our new base. You must meet them there, !

The Pile of Crusader Skulls is at the entrance of the Crusader's Pinnacle to the northeast at. Look for a glowing green pillar of light next to a Scourge tent and banner atop the hill.

While near the banner, players are significantly buffed (Blessing of the Crusade: Your power versus the Scourge is significantly increased! Mana and health regeneration increased while stranding and defending the banner.). The buff will give an almost-invincible amount of health regeneration, although it is still possible to die if you pull aggro on too many attackers at once and you don't overgear the encounter. Crusader Lord Dalfors spawn to assist along with three Argent Battle-priests, and accompanied by three Argent Masons with torches.

Waves of scourge approach to unseat the banner. First Scourge Drudges, then Reanimated Captains and Hideous Plaguebringer. Eventually, Halof the Deathbringer arrives. Slaying him ends the attacks.
