• Water Walking: Elixir of Water Walking or Anglers' Water Striders

The recommended starting location for walking is a safe area above Nazmir, marked by the cloudy texture on the minimap. Once you reach the second set of coordinates, dive into the water, locate the sunken ship, and interact with the pebble on the skull vitral at the back of the ship.

Anagram

The text on the pebble reads:

The text has been decoded as an anagram by rearranging the capitalized letters.

The solution points to Kurgthuk the Merciless in Frostfire Ridge, who yells "GET BACK TO WORK!". Near him, you'll find a volcano, with Baa'l located at its center.

Baa'l

Initially, Baa'l is nearly impossible to defeat because he is empowered. However, you can weaken him by summoning Uuna, as long as you have completed her storyline, including the World Tour. Alternatively, a friend who has finished Uuna's storyline can assist you.

If Baa'l's health doesn't decrease, try switching War Mode on or off. You can also try the Gastropod Shell toy to reset him, or realm swap until you find a shard where it works.

Defeat Baa'l in a pet battle to receive Baa'ls Darksign!

Seek Knowledge

Summon Baa'l and he will speak the following ominous words:

The capitalized letters can be rearranged to spell "SEEK KNOWLEDGE".
