The whole chain

  1. A Lesson to Learn: from your druid trainer. Speak to Dendrite Starblaze in Moonglade.
  2. Trial of the Lake: find a Shrine Bauble at the bottom of Lake Elune’ara and use it at the Shrine of Remulos before it decays. Report to Tajarri.
  3. Trial of the Sea Lion: this quest.
  4. Aquatic Form: show the pendant to your trainer to learn the form.

Step by step

  1. Take Trial of the Sea Lion from Tajarri in Moonglade after Trial of the Lake.

  2. Get both halves. Each sits in a Strange Lockbox under water. You can breathe for a while, so dive straight down and swim back up.

    Faction Half Pendant of Aquatic Agility Half Pendant of Aquatic Endurance
    Alliance Darkshore, in the sea off the river bridge north of Auberdine (48.9, 11.3) Westfall, in the sea west of the Gold Coast Quarry (17.9, 33.2)
    Horde The Barrens, in the middle of The Sludge Fen (56.7, 8.3) Silverpine Forest, in the sea west of the shipwreck north of The Sepulcher (29.6, 29.2)
  3. Return to Moonglade. Teleport: Moonglade gets you there fast.

  4. Combine the halves near the Shrine of Remulos in the north-west of Moonglade. This makes the Pendant of the Sea Lion.

  5. Turn in at Dendrite Starblaze in Nighthaven and take Aquatic Form.

  6. Go to your trainer: Mathrengyl Bearwalker in Darnassus (Alliance) or Turak Runetotem on Elder Rise in Thunder Bluff (Horde). Hand in Aquatic Form to learn the spell.

Rewards

  • Trial of the Sea Lion gives about 875 XP.
  • The final quest, Aquatic Form, teaches Aquatic Form: you breathe under water and swim 50% faster.
  • It also gives the Aquarius Belt (leather belt, +2 Stamina, +2 Intellect) and the Idol of Shifting Tides, a new Forever idol that reduces the mana cost of your shapeshift spells by 40. ForeverDB lists both as received; Conquest Capped calls it a choice. Check your quest window.

Tips / common problems

  • Exact spots differ by a point or so between sources (for example 33.0 to 33.2 in Westfall). If the lockbox is not where you dive, swim a short circle around the coordinates.
  • The Sludge Fen half is not in the sea. Horde druids find it in the tar pools in the middle of The Sludge Fen, north of the Crossroads. Mobs there are around your level, so clear around the pool first.
  • Combining does nothing? You are too far from the Shrine of Remulos. Walk right up to it.
  • Alliance in Westfall. The Westfall half is a long trip from Darkshore. Take the boat from Auberdine to Menethil and fly south, or grab it when you are already in the area for other quests.
  • Skyborne druids. Sources do not say whether Skyborne get a different Aquatic Form chain. Ask your trainer at level 16.

Questions & answers

Where are the pendant halves for Trial of the Sea Lion?

Alliance: Half Pendant of Aquatic Agility in the sea north of Auberdine, Darkshore (48.9, 11.3), and Half Pendant of Aquatic Endurance in the sea west of Westfall (17.9, 33.2). Horde: Agility in The Sludge Fen, The Barrens (56.7, 8.3), and Endurance in the sea north of The Sepulcher, Silverpine Forest (29.6, 29.2). Each half is in a Strange Lockbox.

How do you combine the pendant halves?

Go back to Moonglade and stand near the Shrine of Remulos in the north-west of the zone. Use one of the halves there to make the Pendant of the Sea Lion. It does not work anywhere else.

At what level do druids get Aquatic Form in WoW Forever?

At level 16, through a four-part quest chain: A Lesson to Learn, Trial of the Lake, Trial of the Sea Lion and Aquatic Form.

What is the reward for the Aquatic Form quest?

Aquatic Form itself, plus the Aquarius Belt and the Idol of Shifting Tides, a new Forever idol that lowers the mana cost of shapeshifting by 40. Sources disagree on whether you get both items or choose one.
