Learn how you can make a respectable amount of gold on 3.0.8 patch day from your Sons of Hodir rep grind!

Bornakk responded to my post on the wow forums regarding this topic.

WowInsider covered my post as well.

Many of you have been farming for A MONTH to get your Hodir rep to revered/exalted and pick up the rewards this faction has to offer.

How would you like to make some gold from the time you spent building your reputation?
I thought you’d say that.


Before I explain in detail, I’d like to share with you some facts:

1. Relic of Ulduar currently can only be used to buy a few consumables, the most common one being Iron Boot Flask.
2. In patch 3.0.8, these relics will no longer be soulbound.
3. Instead of costing 10 relics for a flask, it’s going to cost 200+.
4. In patch 3.0.8, you will be able to turn in Relics of Ulduar for reputation with the sons of hodir.

The Relics of Ulduar can be earned by killing certain mobs (full list) and in particular you will get these off of Stormforged Infiltrators 82% of the time. These mobs can only be faught by doing the quest Spy Hunter, which has you follow around a wolf and kill the Infiltrators as they spawn. This quest requires that you are honored with the sons of hodir.
Ok, So How Does This Help Me?
First off, save your relics and don’t spend any of them. If you stockpile now then you will see them sell like crazy for about a week after the patch is released. Many a rich wow player will shell out the cash rather than farm rep with this monster of a faction, and you will most likely get exalted yourself running quests to pick up the relics.
So go ahead and complete your Hodir rep quests every day and save your relics for patch day.
