Intro to Marine Biology

For this achievement you will have to assign a few people to swim around the entire zone and collect samples of sea life:

• [npc=155242]
• 
  
• [npc=155245]
• 
  
• [npc=155243]
• 
  
• [npc=155247]

The tracker currently doesn't show how many samples you have collected so assigned players will have to count that on their own. Once you have collected over 50 samples, preferably 55-60 to be safe, you can kill the boss and get the achievement.

Make sure that the assigned players switch to tank specialization, that way they'll not get hit by [spell=292167]. If you have druids in your group then they should be assigned collect the sea life since they'll swim fast due to their [spell=276012].

Note that the assigned players should hit the boss once or else they might not get the achievement.

You have to pull the boss before the sea life becomes collectable. Maybe that's obvious, but it took me a bit to figure that out.

Got no friends? No problems. Easy solo. Patience is required.
1. Kill all the trash in the tunnel to draw the boss out of his cave.
2. Tag the boss to start the fight and allows you swim anywhere (make sure the 45 second healing buff from a puffer fish is not on you)
3. Swim around. If it can be clicked then click it
4. Need 50 of the marine samples
5. I actually called out loud to remind me what number I was at
6. After about 7-8 minutes I was down to 60% health. So went back to boss area. Killed one of those puffer fish. Stood inside the area which allowed me to heal up.
7. Get out of the dead puffer fish area so the buff drops off. You cannot go over the deep water with that buff = instant death
8. 45 seconds later with the buff gone I was back on the hunt
9. Took no more damage
10. Probably took 15 to 20 minutes to collect 50 samples (I went to 55)
11. Went back and killed boss
