Walkthrough

Use the Disguise

• Put the Worg Disguise on your action bar and activate it before entering Rivenwood. It transforms you into a worg, and the local worgs will ignore you. The disguise only works within the Rivenwood area.

Find Ulfang’s Cave

• Head north from Steel Gate through Rivenwood. Ulfang’s cave is on the snowy northwestern edge of the forest at [29.5, 5.8]. The cave entrance is guarded by two stationary worgs (harmless while you’re disguised).
• Alternate route: If you want to avoid the spiders and other mobs in Rivenwood, take the road north out of the zone into Grizzly Hills. Stop around [34, 76] in Grizzly Hills coordinates, look east, and you’ll see the cave entrance in the snow. Put on the disguise before heading over.

Talk to Ulfang

• Click on Ulfang inside the cave to turn in the quest. He says: “You look and smell different… you are not one of my pack. Tell me your story; I have nothing but time while I am trapped in here.”
• Targeting tip: You need to be very close to Ulfang (near his paws) to interact with him. Look for the yellow question mark. If you see a grey question mark, you’re close but not in the right spot yet. Adjust your position.

Efficiency Tips

• Keep the Worg Disguise. After completing this quest, the disguise stays in your inventory. It provides a movement speed boost on a short cooldown, making it useful for short runs between quests throughout the zone where mounting isn’t worthwhile.
• Pet classes: Your pet stays safe while you’re disguised. Worgs will not attack your companion, so there’s no need to dismiss it.
• If you lose the disguise, return to Watcher Moonleaf for a replacement. The game doesn’t give you a notification when the replacement is added; it just appears in your bags.

Lore Context

• The quest name is a play on Aesop’s fable “The Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing,” cleverly inverted: instead of a wolf pretending to be a sheep, you’re a person pretending to be a worg.
• Moonleaf has been receiving dreams from Ulfang, who is trapped in his cave and needs help. Ulfang is not hostile like the other Rivenwood worgs. He and his pack are being manipulated by a dominant Alpha Worg, and the rest of the chain deals with uncovering and confronting that threat.
