RewardsAstrid's Riding Gloves, Brunnhildar Snowkickers, Yeti Hide Mantle, 4,100 XP

Description

So you want to ride? Well, if you've made it this far someone must think you've got a shot at the Hyldsmeet. First things first; we'll have to make you a harness. In the cliffs to the south, you'll find scattered groups of yeti. Their hides are tough and just the right thickness. Bring me some and we'll get you started on the path of the bear-rider.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

    You have succeeded where many have failed, sister. Whether it be by strength and courage or mere luck remains to be seen. Go back to the village and seek out Astrid Bjornrittar. Tell her of your accomplishments. But be warned. She is not easily impressed.

After this quest

  • The Last of Her KindThe Storm Peaks · Level 25-30

    For as long as I can remember, we've obtained our best bears from the Hibernal Cave to the east. Those times might finally be gone. The cave has been overrun by ravenous jormungar and the wild bears are all but extinct.
