Just to save some poor soul time and effort, the Son's of Hodir reputation is gained through completing quest chain in K3, then you get another chain that sends you to Thorim (Son's of Hadir dude) and only when you are doing the quest for him the item drops from giants. Wish someone told me that before I farmed them for 2 hours.

Kommentar von Haight

Kirdas is quite correct.

While I offer my condolences for your lost two hours, you did save me from lost hours by posting this comment ;-)

And for the love of god, remember to start the quest while you're there. I failed that retard check and had to fly back and forth to the altar one more time. And you'll be doing enough flying throughout the Sons of Hodir rep/quest series anyway...

Kommentar von Lashima

So in short, the stone did drop for me while I was doing the quest, and now I can never complete the chain and gain Sons of Hodir rep?

Kommentar von 275686

i had the same problem the stone did drop for me but not knowing better i just destroyed cuz i thought it was quest that wasnt needed is there any other way to get ir or gain rep im at hated

Kommentar von pianomanx

The mob has been changed to Seething Revenant's that drop the Furious Spark...not the elite giants. Thankfully we can now do this quest for rep.

Kommentar von 286474

I, like many others dropped / destoryed the item. This item does not drop off Seething Revenant.

I had to kill an elite for this to drop.

If you can't get one of these guys alone, get a friend.

This seems to have been fixed now, I had abandoned The Refiner's Fire quest and didn't have the Slag Covered Metal. Went to Dun Niffelem and killed an Elite Giant and it dropped immediately. Started the chain again and can now grind Hodir rep.

I'm 75/100 quests in Storm Peaks, and can't find the Slag covered metal from the 80elite Stormforged Iron Giants.
2 days of farming, dying, repair bills, reading posts, and a GM ticket have grinded me gears. ("the quest is working as intended")
Can't find ppl to help kill more and faster, because most everyone has already easily completed the quest, and are blocked from helping. grrrrr.

Stupid that a random drop starts a rep chain. On top of that, not much loot to show for it.

whine whine whine
I know, but I know I'm not the only person affected by this lame quest.

(my alt had no problem getting the quest item)

Kommentar von 411775

I have already completed the quest chain and I think I threw away the Slag Covered Metal.... Can I still unlock the Sons of Hodir dailies?

Kommentar von 435579

I Threw The Slag Covered Metal and know im 22000/36000 and i have No idea how to get The Slag Covered metal back any Help ?

Kommentar von 261499

Completed full Thorim quest chain, but can't seem to make the item drop. Killed the first 20 of those giants, but no drops at all. I seem to have completed all the required steps.

Kommentar von Maikelo

I have completed Mending Fances without picking up the Slag Covered Metal. Is there any other way i can get it ? I tried with Share Quest but didnt work, tried to drop it with friend whos on the Mending Fances but didnt work. HELP ME PLAX

Kommentar von atom0s

If you can't see the giants anymore, as in they are all dead, it's a high chance that you have already completed the quest and forgot about it. This happened to me and I thought I was stuck. However, I found where I left off that might help others in the same situation:

Head back to Temple of Storms and talk with Thorim again.
He gave me the quest Forging An Alliance which continued the quest chain where I left off just after The Refiner's Fire.

The chain goes, , as:

...
24: Mending Fences
25: The Refiner's Fire
26: A Spark of Hope
27: Forging an Alliance
...

After you get Forging an Alliance you will get a some new quests back in Dun Niffelem which will open up the rest of the quest line and dailies.

If you are stuck in the chain elsewhere, check the WoWWiki for the full quest chain here:

It saved me from a GM ticket. :D

I just farmed Iron Giants for the last hour, thinking I destroyed the quest item...I implore everyone to check their bank before assuming they threw this away, I found it there just five minutes ago thinking "Hmm maybe I just tossed it in the bank"...sure enough...

Easymode for geared lvl 80 Rogue, although I figure any geared class could probably kill these guys...

Kommentar von 538487

Wowhead, you have saved me again.

Kommentar von Eilonthay

Now grants 28,600 rep (despite how it's listed here) once you've gathered up the sparks, done your thing, and taken it back to Thorim. Of course, humans get their bonus to that.

Between this and Mending Fences, you'll shoot straight to somewhere in the beginning of honored.

Kommentar von Davina

Lvl 80 Spriest soloed
I went around looking for where I dropped the SoH quest chain.. and finally thought about this one. I went and the first giant killed.. dropped the quest. Now I have Spark of Hope.. and I am no longer lost! Awesome Awesome..

Kommentar von 197626

Ugh, I don't understand why Blizzard douse not just make this a 100% drop rate. After finishing Mending Fences and not seeing this item drop off any of the Giants and assuming I'd get another quest from Thorim, I had to try solo killing these elites, being that they're immune to slowing/snare spells my 79 frost Mage was pretty much out of luck.

Kommentar von 607531

I must be doing something wrong I`ve killed over 50 and i still cant get me a slag covered metal PLEASE ADVISE!

Kommentar von 655430

After I got this quest and went to Dun Niffelem,where I retrieved a bunch of relics - making me go straight up to revered, it dissapeared. Think it has something to do with that "reputation jump".

Anyhow. A GM ticket + chat couldn't help me, but you guys could. I just went back to Thorim and I had the quest waiting for me there - once again. As simple as that.

Thanks!

Kommentar von 635551

At 80 I got 31,460. I suspect that you gain whatever it takes to reach honored.

Kommentar von 156592

The Slag covered metal, turns into 'Gleaming ore' This I did have in my bank,
when I started Cata quests, I emptied quest log, destroying gleaming ore in bank !

ogres all dead, living ones where Yellow so I couldn't attack them.

I re picked up thread from Thorim, (top of temple of storm) after reading Atmos post above
seamed like I could hand in as if I had the quest item (which I didnt)

am now rep farming for the mining bag recipe.

Kommentar von 638613

Confirmed after 30 minutes of farming, Seething Revenants DO NOT drop the Slag Covered Metal. The Stormforged Iron Giant's drop the Metal that starts the quest and then you kill Seething Revenants for the sparks.

As of patch 4.3.2, this is Sons of Hodir rep made easy. As a troll, with the guild perk giving me the 10% rep bonus, I went from 500/36000 Hated all the way to 155/1000 Exalted in these three fast and easy steps:

+31,460 rep for getting this item, doing the follow up quest, then turning in to Thorim
+31,460 rep for completing "Mending Fences", which you get from Thorim
+20,735 rep for turning in 580 Relics of Ulduar to Lillehoff. From the AH on my server, this was less than 500g.

Going back and forth, including going back to the AH and buying the relics I needed - this entire process is less than 30 minutes to go from Hated to Exalted.

Kommentar von rodier
