Alliance Druid Bear Form Quest Chain
Alliance Druid Bear Form
Quest Chain
All druids look forward to getting the spell for Bear Form, a great way to handle melee combat. Both Horde and Alliance druids have to complete a bear form quest chain to get the spell for their bear form, but certain parts are different, so, for clarity, I have made a separate walk through for each.
This quest walk through is for the Alliance, use this link for the Horde Bear Form quest walk through.
The Unofficial World of Warcraft Druid Guide will show you how to make your Druid leaner, meaner, and richer. Covering raids, PvP, leveling, and pwning, this guide will make you into the Druid that all of your opponents hate.

The Alliance Druid Bear Form quest chain has five parts:
4- Back to Darnassus , and
*** NOTE: Most quests will be much easier if you have a map Addon (allowed by Blizzard) that has map coordinates.
I will give you directions in case you do not have map addons, but this Druid Power Over Poison quest chain walk through also includes the map coordinates in parenthesis like this: (x,y)

WARNING FOR PvP SERVERS: This quest is for all druids- Horde and Alliance- and Moonglade is contested territory for those of you who are on PvP servers.
The biggest problem druids have with the Moonglade parts of the quest series seems to be that those on PvP servers are attacked by higher level druids of the opposing faction. Kind of makes you feel like the warlock imp pet who says, “can’t we all just get along!” Oh well, I’m sure we are all very impressed with those high level druids who are able to kill much lower level druids, aren’t we now?
Stick as close to the guards as you can while in Moonglade; the guards will attack anyone who starts a fight in Moonglade.
Quest 1 – Heeding the Call
Start – Your level 10 Druid trainer
Finish – Mathrengyl Bearwalker, Darnassus (35,8)
Your Task: Travel to Darnassus and speak with Mathrengyl Bearwalker.
To start this four-quest chain when you reach level 10 you need to talk to whichever trainer you would normally see for your level 10 training. If you happen to be in Stormwind see Theridran in the Park at (21,51.) If you are in Darnassus see a druid trainer in the Cenarion Enclave in north-western Darnassus, in Fandral Staghelm’s tree. ( 35,8)
First click on the trainer to get for your regular level 10 training, and then click on the trainer again to get “Heeding the Call,” the first part of this series.
Your druid trainer will then say the following:
Dialogue Your level 10 trainer:
“Excuse me, friend…
“It has come to my attention that Mathrengyl Bearwalker has put out word that he wishes to speak with you. It seems that your training as a druid is about to take on a new life, and he will be training you personally. Mathrengyl is the direct assistant to the Arch Druid himself, and is one of the most sage and august druids you’ll find in Teldrassil.
“He is located in the Cenarion Enclave of Darnassus, on the second floor of Fandral Staghelm’s tree.”
To complete the quest you must speak with Mathrengyl Bearwalker, on the second floor of Fandral Staghelm’s tree in the Cenarion Enclave, Darnassus. (35,8)
While you are in Darnassus set your hearthstone there as you will be returning to Darnassus for the fourth quest, and that is by far the easiest way to travel. Make sure your hearthstone is available (not on cool down) when you start out. Also, here in Darnassus and everywhere that you go click on the flightmaster to learn the fly point.
Talk to Mathrengyl Bearwalker. You will earn 85 XP.
Mathrengyl Bearwalker will give you the next quest: “Moonglade.”
Quest 2 – Moonglade
Start: Mathrengyl Bearwalker, Darnassus (35,8)
Finish: Dendrite Starblaze, the Village of Nighthaven, Moonglade (56,30)
Your Task: Travel to Moonglade and speak with Dendrite Starblaze in the village of Nighthaven. Piece of cake.
Dialogue Mathrengyl Bearwalker:
“All druids are welcome in the sacred lands of Moonglade, regardless of
the current tensions in the Cenarion Circle between Arch Druid Staghelm
and Keeper Remulos – Moonglade’s guardian. Now that you’re learning the
ways of the Claw, I’ll teach you the spell that lets you transport
yourself there. Cast it whenever you seek Moonglade’s knowledge or
solace.
“As for your first lesson, travel to Moonglade and speak with Dendrite Starblaze in Nighthaven about the path you’re now on. Good luck, young druid.”
After you accept the Moonglade quest look on the first tab in your spell book. You will find a teleport button that Mathrengyl Bearwalker has just placed there permanently. Click on it to teleport to Moonglade for the next part of the quest.
The Teleport Moonglade spell will place you right in front of the building in which you will find Dendrite Starblaze. Go inside and up to the second floor. (56,30)
You will earn 210 XP.
Dendrite Starblaze will give you the next quest “The Great Bear Spirit.”
Quest 3 – The Great Bear Spirit
Start: Dendrite Starblaze, Moonglade (56,30)
Finish: Great Bear Spirit, Moonglade (39,27)
Your Task: Talk to the Great Bear Spirit
Dialogue Dendrite Starblaze:
“In the northwest part of Moonglade resides the home of a wise and noble being we call the Great Bear Spirit. For all druids, it has served as a tutor and mentor into the first true natural understanding of the bear. All druids at one point seek the spirit’s wisdom, and you shall be no exception.
“Go to the Great Bear Spirit now and learn what it will teach. When it is satisfied with you, return to me here in Nighthaven. We will then see if you have truly taken account of the lessons it teaches.”
The Great Bear Spirit is very close by: northwest of Dendrite Starblaze around (39,26) to (39,28.)
The Great Bear Spirit does not have a yellow question mark floating over his head, but he glows and you can read his name. Just click on him and click through the dialogue series. The screen will tell you when you have finished that part of the quest.
When you have finished this part return to Dendrite Starblaze to obtain the next quest. The best way to do this is to use your Teleport Mooonglade spell.
If you try to run back to the village and find Dendrite Starblaze’s house you may find yourself having problems: 1- there is another building that looks exactly the same as Dendrite Starblaze’s place; 2- if you are on a PvP server there may be high level PvPers who are lying in wait. So, just use the teleport spell again.
Quest 4 – Alliance: Back to Darnassus
Start: Dendrite Starblaze, Moonglade (56,30)
Finish – Mathrengyl Bearwalker, Darnassus (35,8)
Your Task: Get back to Darnassus. No problem.
Dialogue Dendrite Starblaze:
“The time has come for us to part ways, young one, as the application of your lessons takes you back to whom that sent you to me. Mathrengyl Bearwalker walks truly in balance with nature, even as he dwells precariously close to where the balance has faltered. Listen to his instructions, and you will soon complete your first lessons into your role as a protector of balance.
“Go now, young one. We shall meet again.“
If you set your hearthstone for Darnassus and it is not on a cool down use it now.
If you do not have your hearthstone set for Darnassus, or it is on cool down, you can go to the special druid fly point in Moonglade (free and only for druids,) and catch a ride back. You will find them at (44,45) in the south-western corner of the Village of Nighthaven. The Alliance flight takes you only to Rut’theran Village in Teldrassil. The Horde flight takes you only to Thunder Bluff. Watch out for PvP-ers.
Dialogue Mathrengyl Bearwalker:
“Welcome back, <name>. I sense that your first meeting with the Great Bear Spirit is the same as it is with all <class>s when they first start down the path of the Claw… a little bewildering, but very intense. I know it was that way with me.
“The Great Bear Spirit has been a part of Azeroth as long as Azeroth has existed in the heavens. We have come to rely on its wisdom and its power to fuel our purpose. The time has now come for your first test of this purpose. Listen closely…”
You will earn 85 XP for completing this quest.
Mathrengyl Bearwalker will give you the next quest “Body and Heart .”
Quest 5 – Body and Heart
Start – Mathrengyl Bearwalker, Darnassus (35,8)
Finish – Mathrengyl Bearwalker, Darnassus (35,8)
Your Task: Find and defeat Lunaclaw, and then return to Mathrengyl Bearwalker.
Dialogue Mathrengyl Bearwalker:
“Directly east of Auberdine lay many moonkin caves. The one closest to Auberdine has a Moonkin Stone inside it. Lunaclaw, the defender of the stone, will face you only when Cenarion Moondust is applied to it. Lunaclaw possesses within it a strength that you must use as one of the Claw.
“You’ve earned the right to use this Cenarion Moondust, <name>… now show me that you’ve earned the right to possess the strength of body and the strength of heart needed as a druid!”
This quest sends you east of Auberdine to find and defeat Lunaclaw. When he gives you the quest Mathrengyl Bearwalker will also give you some Cenarion Moondust that you will need for the quest.
From Darnassus go behind the bank (30,41) and enter the pink pavillion that tranports you to Rut’theran Village in Teldrassil. Take the path to the sea and turn right and go down the pier to take the free boat ride across the Veiled Sea to Auberdine in Darkshore. (This is assuming that you do not yet have the flight point to Auberdine.)
When you arrive in Auberdine make a point of visiting the griffon master and getting the fly point for future reference. You will need it, especially for future druid quests.
You will find Lunaclaw in a moonkin cave east of Auberdine. Travel east of the town and find the closest moonkin cave. The caves look like sunken piles of rocks.
You have to kill the three level 11 or 12 moonkin guarding the cave, and get inside to find the Moonkin Stone. Be certain you have Thorns and Mark of the Wild cast on yourself. Pull and kill the moonkin one by one if you are soloing this quest.
Once you are inside the cave apply the dust to the stone and Lunaclaw, the defender of the stone (a level 12 moonkin) will appear. Note: he will likely appear behind you.
Blast away with moonfire, wrath, etc. You may want to have rejuvenation up in case you are hit. First aid or health potions are always beneficial.
Lunaclaw’s spirit will be released over his body when he is dead. (See the screenshot below.) Talk to his spirit and he will give you what you need to complete the quest, after which you return to Mathrengyl Bearwalker.
Return to Auberdine and take a flight or a sailing ship back to Darnassus, or use your hearthstone if it is not on cool down.
See Mathrengyl Bearwalker in the Cenarion Enclave, Darnassus, hand in the quest, and you will receive your bear form spell.
There you have the whole Alliance Druid Bear Form Quest Chain.
