Rep rep reputation (pt 2)

The one and only one reason you need exalted reputation for the Sons of Hodir sold by the quartermaster Lillehof, and that is the shoulder enchant. To unlock these daily quests you need to do a long quest chain in Storm Peaks. You do start out hostile with the Sons of Hodir and it does take a while before you can actually start on the dailies for the Hodir. The first quest starts in K3: They Took Our Men!

Most dailies for Hodir are easy kill or gather quest. Easy when the area isn’t farmed to death of course. Try and find a quiet time to do these, its a real popular area.

Hot and Cold – 250 rep, available after completing Forging an Alliance
Blowing Hodir’s Horn – 250 rep, available after completing In Memoriam
Polishing the Helm – 250 rep, available after completing Forging a Head
Spy Hunter – 350 rep, available after Honored
Thrusting Hodir’s Spear – 500 rep, available after Honored and completing Raising Hodir’s Spear
Feeding Arngrim – 350 rep, available after Revered

Thrusting Hodir’s Spear takes a bit of practice. Strategy depends on what class your are. For me, as dps with reasonable hp, i use dodge (2) and grip (1) as much as possible – i fell out of his claws too many times in the beginning! Main attack is the mighty thrust (4) and a occasional normal thrust. Min point is to keep health reasonable, because in phase 2 it drops really quickly. Phase 2 is just spamming pry jaws open (1) till you can use Fatal Strike (3), which has a 4 second cooldown.

While you do the dailies, be on the lookout for Everfrost Chips. They spawn randomly in the quest areas, and even in Dun Niffelem itself.

While you’re in Storm Peaks, be sure to check out the daily in Brunnhildar Village. The Hydnir Spoils can get you the White Polar Bear. It’s also a good place to get some Worg Haunches and Worm Meat in the cave east of Temple of Storms and Rhino in the outside the cave.

And yay! Tonight all the hard work paid off and i got exalted with Sons of Hodir. With an achievement 20 exalted reputations to go with it!
