If you're planning to raid Serpentshrine Cavern in TBC Classic, you'll need to complete the SSC attunement quest chain first. In this guide, I show you exactly how to get attuned by completing The Cudgel of Kar'desh, including how to obtain the Earthen Signet from Gruul and the Blazing Signet from Nightbane.

You'll also learn how to unlock and summon Nightbane in Karazhan, which requires completing the Medivh's Journal quest chain and obtaining the Blackened Urn.

This guide covers everything you need to know to unlock access to Serpentshrine Cavern in Coilfang Reservoir.

What you'll learn in this guide:

• SSC attunement requirements in TBC Classic
• Where to start The Cudgel of Kar'desh quest
• How to get the Earthen Signet from Gruul
• How to unlock the Blackened Urn quest chain
• How to summon Nightbane in Karazhan
• How to obtain the Blazing Signet
• How to receive The Mark of Vashj

Once complete, you'll be able to enter Serpentshrine Cavern, the raid located inside Coilfang Reservoir in Zangarmarsh.
