How to Get Your First Voidwalker as a Troll Warlock in WoW: Forever

At level 10, follow Gan'rul's Summons to Gan'rul Bloodeye in Orgrimmar. Recover the Tablet of Verga from Skull Rock for Creature of the Void, then use the supplied glyphs to summon and defeat the quest Voidwalker for The Binding. Return to Gan'rul to learn Summon Voidwalker.

1. Start with Gan'rul in Orgrimmar

1. Reach level 10 on your Troll Warlock and check your Warlock trainer for Gan'rul's Summons.
2. Head to the Cleft of Shadow in Orgrimmar and find Gan'rul Bloodeye, around 48.2, 45.6 on the city map.
3. Turn in the introduction and accept Creature of the Void.
4. Read the objective before you leave. This route calls for the Tablet of Verga, which is your cue that you're on Gan'rul's chain.

Warlock quests have different versions that can share a title. A guide that sends you for a grimoire or a choker is following a different teacher. Use the quest text and the name of the person who sent you. That will keep you on the Orgrimmar route even when a search result shows the same quest title for another faction or race.

2. Recover the tablet in Skull Rock

Leave Orgrimmar and look for Skull Rock, the cave east of the city gate. Work through the cave until you reach the Burning Blade stash and collect the Tablet of Verga. Your objective is the tablet in the container, so defeating enemies along the way only helps you get to it. Check the quest log after looting before you head back.

The cave is a good place to slow down. Pull an enemy out of the passage when you can, so the fight doesn't bring more enemies into reach. If a group is already moving through the cave, watch for enemies returning behind them before assuming the path is clear. Finish the tablet pickup and take the same approach out if you want to avoid searching for an unfamiliar exit.

Return to Gan'rul with the tablet. Turn it in and accept The Binding. Check that you have the Glyphs of Summoning from the quest before going to the circle.

3. Use the quest glyphs at the summoning circle

1. Find the summoning circle in Orgrimmar's Cleft of Shadow.
2. Get your health and mana ready, then use the Glyphs of Summoning at the circle.
3. Defeat the Summoned Voidwalker. The quest asks you to subdue it, so check the log after the fight to confirm you got credit.
4. Return to Gan'rul Bloodeye to finish the binding and learn Summon Voidwalker.

If the glyphs do nothing, verify that The Binding is active and you're at the circle in the Cleft of Shadow. The tablet pickup only finishes the earlier step. Turn it in before trying to summon anything. If a quest item is missing, check with Gan'rul before abandoning the quest and losing your place in the chain.

4. Summon the Voidwalker outside the quest

Open your spellbook and put Summon Voidwalker somewhere you can find it. Normal casts use a Soul Shard. The glyphs were for the quest encounter, so check for a shard if you can't cast the learned spell after turning in the quest.

You can train Drain Soul from level 10. Use it on an enemy that still counts as a meaningful target for your character, and check your bags for a Soul Shard after the cast. In Forever, damage from Drain Soul on a non-trivial target can produce a shard. If you practice on an enemy far below your level and get none, try something in the range you normally fight for experience. Make room in your bags before the next trip and keep a shard available for the summon. If you also make a Healthstone, check that you have a spare.

For a first test, summon the Voidwalker before you pull an enemy, then send it in and give it a moment to engage. Watch how the enemy responds before you begin casting. Keep the pet's movement under control near camps or caves, where sending it too far ahead can bring another enemy into the fight. The spellbook entry and a successful summon are the quickest way to confirm you finished the chain.
