Guide
The Grand Ice Mammoth mount is sold by Lillehoff in Dun Niffelem once you are Exalted with the Sons of Hodir for 8000g. This is available to both Horde and Alliance players although it’s armor trim colour does change based on faction.
To unlock the Sons of Hodir faction you will need to go through a fairly lengthy but linear quest chain and you will be Honored once finished with the chain. The first is called They Took Our Men! from Gretchen Fizzlespark in K3, Storm Peaks.
From here you’ll be set on a linear questline path, firstly aiding the Hyldnir, just complete any yellow quests that appear from this point onward.
Eventually you will get to The Drakkensryd quest. This will require you to defeat Hyldsmeet Drakeriders and make your way to the top of Temple of Storms, you will meet Thorim who will explain the troubles with Hodir and set you on a path to make amends with them.
Shortly after this you will be on a quest called Mending Fences, to continue the chain after this point you need to loot the Stormforged Iron Giants in the area, these will drop Slag Covered Metal which is an item that will start a quest and continue the chain.
Another 10 or so quests remain in the chain from this point, eventually you will get to Whatever it Takes! which is the final quest of the chain. From here you can begin to gain reputation with the Sons of Hodir
Gaining Reputation with Sons of Hodir
You will reach Exalted if you start this quest chain during the Wrath of the Lich King timewalking event due to the reputation buff it provides but outside of that your main method of gaining reputation will be handing in Relic of Ulduar, handing in 10 to Lillehoff in Dun Niffelem will provide you with 325 Reputation.
These can be purchase from the Auction House or obtained from nearly any mob within Storm Peaks although your best approach will be to farm Halls of Lightning on Normal difficulty.
You can also complete the various dailies within Dun Niffelem, they provide 455 each but you will only have two per day.
Extra Tips: Humans receive 10% extra reputation from all sources due to their racial buff. Additionally, countless reputation buffs can be utilized to speed up your reputation gains further, such as the WHEE! (DMF is around for one week every month), WOW Anniversary buff or other mini-holiday related buffs such as Grim Visage.
If the Wrath of the Lich King Timewalking event is active then you can also make use of the 50% bonus reputation provided Sign of the Scourge during this event or trade in Timewarped Badge for Commendation of the Sons of Hodir tokens at Auzin in Dalaran
