Alliance -

For the Darkshore piece - go to the bridge in the north and run off the bridge and fall into the water fall. Start swimming north. You will come to come level 16 & 17 threshers. You will see some scissor shapped rocks coming out of the water. You need to get between the scissor and swim straight down. Done right you will only have to kill maybe 2 threshers. Hearth to auberdine.

For the Westfall piece - go to gold coast quarry and avoid the mages and come out at some rather nasty murlocs... run past them (them may kill you a time or two) and start swimming... swim to the edge of nothing, when you start to get fatigue and scoout back a hair. Then start swimming along the fatigue line. When you are directly over an anchor half buried in the sand start swimming down. When you get to the bottom you will see to your left some bubbles coming out of the ground, stand on those bubbles for air and pop the box. Teleport to moonglade.

Hordies:

For the Barrens piece - go to sludge fen and go to the eastern most side. Clear off some goblins and the box you seek is by the leg of a large vat.

for the Silverpine piece - you will need to avoid some higher level undead and if I remember right there are some aggroables in the water. You need to look for a ship wreck.

Confirmed the location of the Strange Lockbox in Silverpine Forest:
While "standing" right on it, the coords are: 29.6, 29.3

39,34 for me on horde

Comment by Kyvana

While standing on each box, doing the quest on my Druid at level 18, Horde side, and using the Titanbar mod for my coordinates (I have noticed they change slightly depending on your mod), I got..

Sludge Fen - North of Crossroads, past the fork that leads to Durotar. It's on the right hand side, at 56,8. You can clear into the water and then dive down and find the box, or you can just run through the mobs into the water and then swim out of combat, as they won't chase you too terribly far, and there's no mobs IN the water. Lockbox is behind 2 slabs of wood, and gives the half pendant of aquatic agility.

Silverpine Forest - when you get to 29, 29, head downwards and look for a rock fizzure with air-bubbles. Right next to it is your lockbox with the half pendant of aquatic endurance. Now, the tricky part about this is, once you get to the lockbox, you are no longer in silverpine. You are actually flagged as PVP if you are on a PVP server, as it is now contested territory in "The Great Sea". THOSE coordinates are 39,33. If you stay close to the ledge near the bubbles, you won't get fatigue. It's not terribly difficult to find over-all :)

just a note to alliance players, the westfall box has a reef shark that pats past the area, its a lvl22 elite

Comment by TomboyTechnology

Opening the lockbox inflects you with a curse called Aquatic Miasma, which reduces your swim speed by 50% for 1 hour. Pain in the butt when those elder threshers start coming after you.

Comment by Farashin

Is anyone else having issues with the barrens one? I'm on the quest but I can't target or open the chest. The one in silverpine works fine, but the other one isn't sparkley and doesn't create a tooltip when I mouse over.

Comment by Random0212

Just to point out, I'm pretty sure the 'chance of drop' is completely wrong, seeing as there is a 100% chance of what half you will get dependent on where you pick it up. Not 100% sure though =)

HORDE:

FYI There IS a level 19 rare Sludge Beast spawn in the middle of sludge fen pond so be careful it may be down there. It killed me after (luckily) I had gotten the pendant, so be careful.

Comment by molnbo

Yeah and a lvl 19 human in lake.

Comment by Condemner

The Great Sea (39, 33), as of March 11, 2008

The bubble fissure is right beside the "Strange Lockbox"

Comment by FarseerLolotea

Be wary when diving: In all half-pendant sites except the Barrens, a druid will occasionally encounter these suckers. To aggro one at level 16 is certain death.

Comment by SaintStryfe

For Sludge Fen, look down at the bubble fissure, it's between the two wooden planks. It's a little hard to see, but it's right there.

Comment by villez

i got Half Pendant of Aquatic Agility from Darkshore. I have looken the Half Pendant of Aquatic Endurance in same box. I haven't seen it so where im gonna get Endurance pendant?

Comment by iMathias

As for the allies in Westfall be carefull a lvl 22 rare spawns near it.

Comment by redbullah

For horde players, Silverpine part:
It is a good idea to go Undercity first, and ask a Warlock player to buff you Unending Breath, then fly to Sepulcher (you must open Sepulcher FP first) and just run to shipwreck (be careful with wolf guys). You will have approximately 5 minutes left when you arrive there. And have fun :)

Comment by Binser

Westfall coords are 18.33.

Comment by sfarris

The box in Westfall is at x=17.90 y=33.09 if your having trouble finding it and you have coords.

Comment by Xirobe

Though the "Contains" section shows both, each lockbox only has one. The Barrens has one half and Silverpine has the other for Horde, and Darkshore has one half and Westfall has the other for Alliance. I think it might be possible to get the other side's one too, though.

The quest text says to speak to Nighthaven citizens to find out where they are. I'm not going to spoil it here, but here's a hint since thats so general:

One of the people with a clue is someone you're probably going to talk to while there anyway. The other one is standing nearby that person.

Found the Pendant of Aquatic Agility in the Sludge Fen, underneath the tower thingy at the base of a piling. {Horde}
