Feeding Arngrim

Feeding Arngrim is a daily you can do to earn rep with The Sons of Hodir. You have to be revered with The Sons of Hodir to be able to pick up this daily. If you don't have enough rep with The Sons of Hodir to do their daily's then check out Unlocking The Sons of Hodir Daily's to see how you can increase your rep with them. You pick this quest up from Arngrim's monument I guess you would call it.

For this quest you are given Arngrim's Tooth which you use to feed him. You will need to head to the Valley Ancient Winters which is due west of Dun Niffelem. There you will see these worms running around called Roaming Jormungar.

You have to throw Arngrim's Tooth at a Roaming Jormungar then beat up on it enough so it is docile. To do this you target the Roaming Jormungar then right click on the tooth. You will know when it is docile because you won't be able to hit it anymore. They are usually docile enough around 3k hp. Don't make the mistake I do and kill them before they go docile, you get nothing for that and can't even loot or skin them. You need to beat up on them gently :).

Once they are docile Arngrim comes out and eats them. You get credit for feeding him as soon as they go docile. You need to do this 5 times to complete the daily. I usually have to wait for the tooth to cool down before I can move on to the next one so this is a pretty quick quest, only takes a few minutes.

You turn this daily back in where you got it. It pays 13g23s and 350 rep with The Sons of Hodir. This is a quick and easy daily that gets you some good gold and good rep. You should plan on doing this one along with Polishing the Helm and Spy Hunter as they are in the same area.

Good Luck :)

Polishing the Helm

Polishing the Helm is a daily rep quest for The Sons of Hodir. You need to be friendly with The Sons of Hodir to get this daily. If you are not friendly with The Sons of Hodir check out this post Unlocking The Sons of Hodir Daily's.

You pick this quest up from the helm at Dun Niffelem. It is hung up and you need to fly up to get it. The objective of this quest is to get 5 Viscous Oil to polish Hodir's Helm with.

You get the Viscous Oil from the Viscous Oil Mobs inside the Hibernal Cavern (55,64). The Hibernal Cavern is located west of Dun Niffelem in the Valley Ancient Winters. If you are heading west from Dun Niffelem you will find it on the right side a little over half way through the valley. Viscoius Oil Mobs are the mobs in there that look like greenish blobs moving around. You need to kill them and loot the Viscous Oil from them.

Once you have the 5 Viscous Oil you need you can head back to Dun Niffelem to turn in. You turn this back in to Hodir's Helm. This quest pays 13g23s and 250 rep with The Sons of Hodir. Another fast and easy quest although, like all the others, it can take awhile if everyone is trying to do it at once. You should plan on doing this one along with Spy Hunter and Feeding Arngrim as they are all in the same area.

Good Luck :)

Daily Fishing - Jewel of the Sewers 5/29/09

Today the daily fishing quest from Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran was Jewel Of The Sewers. This is a pretty fast and easy one.

I headed down into the sewers below Dalaran and went right over to my spot in the Black Market. I got a bunch of junk fish and vials but I got my piece of Corroded Jewelry on the 10th cast on Gomorra and the 7th cast on Wranngar. I am always hoping I will catch the Giant Sewer Rat one day while doing these but nothing yet.

I headed back up to turn the Corroded Jewelry in to Marcia for a Bag of Fishing Treasures.

Gom's Bag of Fishing Treasures had 9g1s4c, a Glow Worm and a Worthless Piece of Green Glass in it. Not a great return for him today.

Wrann's Bag of Fishing Treasures had 10g85s28c, 3 Northsea Pearls, a Battered Jungle Hat and 4 Deviate Fish. He made out a little better but he's not bragging.

The daily cooking quest from Katherine Lee (41,65), the Grand Master Cooking Trainer in the kitchen of A Hero's Welcome, was Infused Mushroom Meatloaf. Another simple quest.

I headed down into the sewers in search of Infused Mushrooms and got all of them really fast, it was unbelievable, possibly the fastest run I have had to get these. When I had 4 on each I headed to the guild bank and grabbed some Chilled Meat to cook them up with. Once I had my meatloafs I headed over to see Orton Bennet upstairs at Curiosities and Moore. He gave me 9g93s, a Dalaran Cooking Award and a Small Spice Bag for my trouble.

Gom's Small Spice Bag had 4 Northern Spices and another Dalaran Cooking Award. He didn't make out too bad today, he will be able to buy some more recipes.

Wrann's Small Spice Bag had 5 Northern Spices in it, he didn't make out too bad either I guess as I am always looking for Northern Spices.

Blowing Hodir's Horn

Blowing Hodir's Horn is a daily which earns rep with The Sons of Hodir. You need to be friendly with The Sons of Hodir to be able to pick up this quest. If you are not yet friendly with The Sons of Hodir check out this post Unlocking The Sons of Hodir Daily's which will tell you how to get there.

You pick this quest up from Hodir's Horn in Dun Niffelem. You are given Hodir's Horn to use to complete this quest. The objective of this quest is to defeat 5 Niffelem Forefathers and 5 Restless Frostborn at Thunderfall, then blow Hodir's Horn over their corpses.

Thunderfall (71,49) is located northeast of where you pick up the quest in Dun Niffelem. You can't miss the Niffelem Forefathers, they are the giants walking around. The Restless Frostborn are the little guys walking around. The Restless Forstborn can be a pain as there are a lot of them and they are everywhere, you won't have any problem getting 5 of them. The giants are easy to pick out but, depending on how many people are doing it, it can take a little while to get 5.

Once you have killed either a Niffelem Forefather or Restless Forstborn you need to target the corpse then right click on Hodir's Horn in your inventory. Make sure to loot BEFORE you blow the horn as the corpse will disappear as soon as you blow it. You will see the spirit rise into the air and you will get credit for releasing one. I have one spot in my action bar that is hot keyed to my ` key and I put whatever quest item I need for the quest I am working on in it, it saves a lot of time.

Once you have credit for 5 of each you head back to Hodir's Horn and turn it in. This daily pays 13g23s and gives 250 rep with The Sons of Hodir. This is an easy quest and goes pretty quick when there are not a lot of people trying to do it at once. I live in the US and play on an Oceanic server so it is usually not too populated when I am on, this makes for less competition on the daily items.

Good Luck :)
