what faction will be selling the bear mounts or will it just be a normal faction wide buyable mount without any rep?

Commento di Kalx

Rarely found in Hyldnir Spoils, from daily quests in the Storm Peaks.

Commento di 240830

Anyone seen this in Beta? on Blizz Special Mount Page it doesn't say where or how to get this mount. Anyone got some info?

This is the NPC you're mounting

Commento di 20869

How do you unlock the dailies to get the item this is found in? I've done every quest in the zone and can only do The Aberrations Must Die.

Commento di 22966

its not alliance only, just picked it up on my undead priest from the daily rewards bag.

Commento di baertur

Ive just completed the quest chain, but I can't take any daylis. Do I have to wait till the next day?
And I am 80

Commento di E1N9

Before 3.0.8 this mount was significantly smaller than the Reins of the Armored Brown Bear and Reins of the Black War Bear.

But in 3.0.8 this mount was changed to the same size as the other two bears.

Commento di Jsnow

I've the same problem with the daylies..

The first day I was able to pick up only one dayli from her.
The second day I was able to pick up only two daylies from her.
The third day I'm still able to pick up only two daylies, but they changed from the two I've done yesterday.

I'm going to complete every quest in SP to see if something changes or if it's just possible to pick up only 2 quests per day.

Commento di 80273

Just did my first 2 dailies, got the mount on second daily. Seems pretty rare on my server but I don't know the drop rate.

Now I just need the time-lost proto-drake and I will have 2 cool mounts that don't require me to roll against 25 other people for them.

I was able to get 2 dailys, though I finished questing in storm peaks about 2 days ago.

Commento di decay

Got this on my very first daily quest.
I am level 79 so you don't need to be 80 to be able to do the daily quests, all you need to do is to have done all other quests in order to "unlock" this.

Commento di 254112

I found this precious in a bag after doing defending your title for the first time. i was able to take the quest at the same time as i was able to take the quest to kill those victorious challengers for the first time. ( as a level 77 death knight).

Commento di 15174

You can do 2 Dailys each day.After the reset,NPC is giving you again 2 dailys from a pool of 4.

Possible daily quests are:

Commento di 253029

Not sure if it's a bug or intentional, but I can confirm the bear is ridiculously small.

Commento di NinjaPirateTaki

In case anyone is curious as to just how small this bear used to be in comparison to the other bear mounts, it was the same size as a level 80 hunter pet bear.

Commento di 165486

I've spoken to a GM about the scaling issue, he said that it is a known issue that they are looking to sort out (as they always do), hopefully they'll sort the scaling on my Bronze Drake as well.

As a tauren, sitting on this bear is a bit like a gnome riding baby blizzard bear, until then I'll sit on my black war mammoth (which is roughly the size of Org).

Commento di 221009

There are 4 daily quests which can award this bag/chance for the polar bear mount. Each one is opened by completing different quest chains in the area. The Aberrations Must Die quest is available every day. The other 3 are a random set, 1 of the set is available per day. If you haven't opened up the chosen one for that day, you will only be able to do the Aberrations quest, otherwise you will have 2 available per day.
- The Aberrations Must Die
- Maintaining Discipline
- Defending Your Title
- Back to the Pit

Commento di Madiison

I finally got these yesterday evening after doing the dailys since Launch of wrath.

REALLY SMALL - Pictures do it NO justice. I Petitioned this, and the GM said they are planning on fixing it in a future patch, because its a scale issue right now.

Commento di fragmonkey

This has been confirmed for 3.0.8.

The white Polar Bear mount is now the proper (larger) size.

Personally I like the smaller size, so I'm quite disappointed with this news.

Commento di Pango1981

I have recieved this in my spoils 3 times now! I wish I could sell them or give the other two to an alt!

Commento di asloversgo

Fun fact: This is the only mount which the tooltip says "... Mount" on.
(White Polar Bear Mount)

Commento di 253674

In the upcoming patch this mount will have the same size as other bear mounts

Commento di 276227

Ohh... My... @#$%ing... God!

So I was doing my brothers dailies while he was away (I kept the money and he got the reputation, as me being resto and didn't have perscription up at the moment).

It was my second day doing dailies on his account, and the second Brunnhildar quest.

When I opened the !@%# container I saw a ^&*!ing blueprint %^&* ass mount!
-Again, on my goddamn brothers character!

&*!@ing annoying dude!

(Sorry for explicit words, just so angry at the moment)

Commento di blazingpenguin

This mount currently isn't on the GCD

Commento di Hoshi

It is possible to continue to recieve this even after you get it the first time, I do the quests there as part of my daily gold grind and the mount was just a bonus. I just got another one which of course is useless to me and is in place of the non-gold item which you usually get.

Commento di ultrapaint56

i find that this drop rate seems a tad low. i don't do these daily's everyday and I have had it drop twice which made me wish it a BOA item.

Commento di 200659

This mount is a 1% drop rate from the Hyldnir Spoils bag obtained from completing dailies handed out by Gretta the Arbiter in Brunnhildar Village.

She gives a player 2 dailies at a time from a pool of the following daily quests:

-The Aberrations Must Die
-Maintaining Discipline
-Defending Your Title
-Back to the Pit

EDIT: Some days you only can get one daily.

Commento di 265877

rofl! as soon i knew i could get this mount from those bags u get form dailys a did a daily, and guess what? i got it the 1st daily i did! i think that im just one very lucky bastard... one bad thing is i can only brag with it in dala and in other horde caps cause why using a ground mount with the comfort having a flying mount... good luck mateys in gettting the same lucky bag as i had!

Commento di 205482

This post is so wrong it should be burnt.

You get 2 dailys each day. It would take a year of doing the dailys every day to have it almost guaranteed drop.

Good day.

Commento di finest

The first time i did daily quests on Brunnhildar Village, on my first daily, the bag dropped this for me :p

Quite lucky i suppose o.O

Commento di Dernar

This mount is still significantly smaller than other bear mounts and other mounts in general. While this is frustrating to some people, as someone who plays a Tauren, I find it decidedly convenient. I can finally travel through doorways without getting stuck. Don't get my wrong, I like my Black War Mammoth, which is so large when mounted by a Tauren that it is necessary to dismount while crossing the thandol span between arathi and the wetlands. If you play a Tauren and you want to travel through some smaller sized passages while mounted, this is the mount for you. True, larger mounts are more impressive and are even more useful when traveling through swampy areas, but this thing is just downright practical for any Tauren to own. It is my new everyday land mount.

EDIT: Since this mount had it's size increases in 3.0.8, I have found it useful to use a riding wolf from Orgrimar (previously unavailable to Taurens). It's not quite as useful as the smaller version of the polar bear mount was, but it's a decent compromise. Just a heads up for anyone looking to find a smaller mount.

Commento di 232637

As for 3.0.8 this mount will increase in size.

Commento di Amok

Been doing these dailies for well over a month now everyday and still not seen this mount. I don't think I have even seen someone on my realm with it either.

Commento di Aarkan

Everyone relax, this does NOT have a drop rate of <1%, wowhead has only seen it come out of <1% of the Spoils opened because once someone gets it they will never see it drop again even if it would have. Most people have reported it dropping very quickly so it more likely has a drop rate between 5 and 15%. This mount is a gift to everyone who always wanted a bear mount and polar bear mounts were promised for Wrath. You don't see very many of these because not too many people realize that dailies unlock there and there are also a lot of other new mounts people are galavanting around on. So chill, it won't take you a year, just hit up these dailies whenever you do your Sons of Hodir ones until you get your drop. I got mine after 3 or 4 days and I'm very disappointed they're injecting the little guy with Growth Hormone.

Commento di 294304

Farmed this mount for about a month, and dropped on the first day of the year. yaay!

Commento di 295233

Yeah it dropped 4 me on my third daily hehe

Commento di 107930

I have been wondering why Blizzard made this mistake of making this mount smaller than the others? One would think this wouldn't happen because they would scale them to the same size as the other bear mounts.
I have a thought that it might be in some way connected with the size issue of mounts while in Brunnhildar Village while transformed into one of the Brunhildar warriors. when riding the mount for the quest Back to the Pit the mount is scaled to size where as all other mounts are quite smaller. Has anyone used the polarbear mount while in the Brunnhildar Village? does it look normal or does it appear to be even smaller?

Commento di 272320

I got it from 1st daily q in Hyldnir Spoils ! GZ me xD

Commento di EliteLeader

Must admit I was pretty damn pleasantly surprised when this dropped the first time I did the daily had no clue what it could contain or that it was quite rare until checking here =)

Commento di jashman

I decided to do a Hyldnir quest simply for gold today, the first in about 3 weeks since I received this mount... and another mount appeared in it. Sadly it is soulbound and already known, so I had to delete the poor thing.

Commento di 264834

I love riding the tiny bear around! It's like we've escaped from the Moscow circus!

Commento di 205327

3 weeks of doing dailys with 2 days having only 1 daily. Still no mount. Lots of cheese though. Mmmmm....cheese....

Commento di gadeschaos

After some research i'm convinced that this mount can only be obtained from the Spoils when you turn in the quest Back to the Pit. Yesterday there was this quest on my server and one of my guildmates obtained it, and all the other people that already obtained it got theirs always when there was this quest.
I'm thinking this because blizz already did a similar thing with outland fishing quests where you could obtain the crocolisk pet only when there was the specific daily quest Crocolisk in the City.

Commento di 107012

The Reins of the White Polar Bear is now the proper (larger) size.

Larger size ;-)

Commento di 298533

Well I have stopped doing em for a while until i realised you cud GET a mount, and I only started with 2 dailies, so that aint true m8

Also I'd just say that its rare and hard to get and leave it at that, lest we spam wow-head with so many numbers it overloads ^^

Commento di 128231

Does no one else think of Iorek Byrnison with this mount?

Commento di 300275

I got my first Polar mount on my first Daily, and now again 6 dailys later.

Commento di Treston323

I just got this mount today. I was actually very surprised because I was just doing the daily for a little extra cash in my pocket.

I got it my third time doing dailies from there. I heard that there is 4 different dailies but so far, my best record was 2 a day.

I do think this mount is the best looking of the bears and it is smaller than the other ones but, the size will be corrected in patch 3.0.8

Commento di 300579

Already got three of these, one learned and the other two in the bank.
I guess random loot is random...

Commento di 23276

I seriously hate just about everyone that has made a comment here

Commento di kuruya

The Polar Bear is white and looks smaller than your average mount.

Commento di Zombies

Got this mount first time I did the dailies :]

Commento di Patchumz

Yeah.. a good 6ish weeks of doing the dailies every day and twice on tuesdays (3 am reset + tuesday maintenence = 2x the dailies) and I still don't have it.. told my little brother about it a few weeks ago and he got it his first daily... very frusterating indeed.

Commento di 100763

Got this in less than a week of dailies. Can't wait for it to grow bigger. Right now it's like riding a Baby Blizzard Bear.

Commento di 133472

I have a question for the people that have obtained this. I often get the error message "You do not meet the requirements for this quest." whenever I turn in one of the dailies (I still get the spoils sack). Some of the comments on those dailies say that this is a minor bug, and means nothing, but I have yet to get the polar bear. Has anybody that's experienced this error message, also gotten the mount to drop? Sometimes I wonder if there's a hidden restriction that I'm not meeting, that's preventing the bear from dropping for me. Just need to know if there's any validity to my theory.

Commento di 305602

Random loot is random.

I did the dailies for around five weeks on my Paladin, religiously. That's around 35 days with one to two dailies every day, so around 50-60 total I'm estimating. Nothing.

I did one of the dailies for the very first time on my Priest and got it.

So, I really can't say it any better than the old mantra: random loot is random.

Commento di 174630

With an estimated chance of ~1% it won't take long before everyone has it..
(you can have it in ~25 days with 4 bags a day)

still über tho :D

gonna keep my dailies better organized for this baby n_n

hmmm so.. 1% chance per bag to drop mount.. u have 4 bags... so 4% chance to get it.. therefore 4% per day.. 100% to get mount /4% to get mount per day = 25days..

wow where did u come up with that?.. u no probability n statistics dont work rly in addition.. but by multiplication.. here you can study this abit

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Lets try this out..
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
formula logic: the 1 = stating condition is possible

for 1 item:
1-chance to get = chance to not get
1-chance to not get = chance to get

for serveral items as variable x (variables can be in the form of # of.. items, days, hours, weeks, etc..)
(ex. chance to get a 1 on a dice is: 1/6%
chance to get a 1 on all 3 dice is: 1/6 * 1/6 * 1/6
note that 1/6 * 1/6 * 1/6 = {1/6}^3)

therefore:
1-^x = chance to not get
1-^x = chance to get
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

lets do this assuming u can have 4 bags per day.. n lets c wats the chance to get mount PER day..

chance not to get mount is: (note 0.8% = chance of getting mount)

100-0.8=99.2% (0.992)

chance to get mount per day (assuming 4 bags):

1-0.992^4=0.031618043904 (3.16%)

chance to get mount in 7 days (1 week):
since u have 3.16% chance to get.. u still have 100-3.16=96.84% (0.9684) not to get mount

1-0.9684^7=0.2013004028392922007448109056 (20.13%)

-----------------------------------------------------------------
chance to get mount in a month:
1-0.2013=0.7987chance not to get mount per week
1-0.7987^4=0.5930559174275439 (59.3%)

note im calculating to the power of 4.. that is because im calculating using the value i got for the 1 week .. and we are now calculating for a month (4weeks)

-----------------------------------------------------------------
now lets try to see how it would be in 2 months:
1-0.5930559=0.4069chance not to get mount per month

1-0.4069^2=0.83439651365926203147269361357279 (83.44%)

-----------------------------------------------------------------
mayb 6months?

1-0.4069^6=0.995461355790726289460919 (99.55%)

well you see it would take 6months to have a near 100% chance @ 4 bags a day to be guaranteed a mount in one of those bags.

EDIT: according to other postes.. its not possible to get more then 2 bags PER day & this is just calculations to the quotes numbers (stating 4bags).. as 2bags a day will take longer then 6months to be nearly guaranteed a 100% chance that one bag will contain a mount

Commento di 74836

So all the time I've been waiting for 3.0.8 so the 'sometimes only 1 daily' will be fixed, only to find that the bug was in always getting the Aberitions one, now you only get 1 daily

Commento di 22920

After this last patch they made this mount's size "proper" as to not be so small anymore.

However, with my human this mount is smaller than gnomes with the same mount.
I noticed also that I can't spacebar and vocalize the bear.

Can anyone confirm this?

Commento di 311193

As of patch 3.0.8, you will only receive ONE daily from Greta.

About two months of trying to get this mount, still no luck; now with this new patch reducing the daily count to one, obtaining this mount will be much harder.

I guess Blizzard doesn't want me to get this mount.

Commento di 313637

I am confused as to why I have never been given more then one daily to do at a time...I think I have done all the quests in the village, yet, I still have only been given the chance at one daily per day...and ideas?

Commento di 221517

ima get this b4 they get rid of it like the bear from za za bear looks better but this one is rarer so now i dont gotta do the FOR THE HORDE what has been *!@#ing my off cus every1 on horde side on my server r freaken lazy so good luck hordeies 4 ur black bear

Commento di Kienor

I got this mount on my 2nd Daily Quest for them. They are not as rare as they used to be, and my personal opinion is they were better before 3.0.8 as they were very. small:P
Seems I was very lucky:P

Commento di 315718

I got my mount after 3 weeks of farming the dailies that were optional.
I was on vent with a buddy at the time and I said "I am getting this damn mount today"

And then BAM! It happened.

Great way to end my summer holidays :)

Commento di 175983

this bear is the polar oppeset of the black war bear in terms of looks, kinda like the white race mounts and the pvp mounts.

Commento di 315779

ive done the whole chain and everyday she only gives me one daily....whats wrong?

Commento di Kalx

In 3.0.8, not only this mount increased size but also lost it's /mountspecial, along with all bears (not sure about blizzard or the TCG one, tho)

Commento di jopa792

I am at 150 bags so far and still no mount.

Commento di Metaphor

This has been said in so many item comments but again:

Stop telling how long it took to get it or estimating droprates, install Wowhead addon instead.
30 seconds extra effort to upload ALL your droprates and data weekly..

Commento di 55139

Been doing the daily in Brunnhildar for a couple of weeks now and have only ever had one quest offered. I sometimes get the quest fail noise and "You do not meet the requirements....." when I hand in the daily. I believe she is supposed to sometimes offer a second quest, but if the magic of Blizz decides to offer the same quest again then it fails, as you cannot do the same daily twice. That's what gives the error message and the quest failure noise.

And no, I haven't found the mount!

Commento di Aeolyn

The bear retains its small size as long as you are in the village where you get the quests; but as soon as the illusion effect on you goes away the bear mount becomes normal size, which is very disappointing.

Something about riding around on an armored polarbear makes you feel that much more like a Champion of the Frozen Wastes.

Commento di 277814

Brother picked up the mount on his second daily first day he did them.

Commento di 163479

She's been giving only one quest per day nowadays, not too sure if this has been corrected in 3.0.9.

Commento di 332646

Of course what all of you seem to be forgetting about the drop rate and percentages of getting and drop mount is the fact that WoW and all mechanical and computer systems rely on expressions and algorithims to determine the percentages for the items drop rates and everything else that is "random" in games. And what I hope all of you know is that no computer or expression for these senarrios is truly random, patterns can and will occur. So keep in mind that while 1% is a close estimate, it is not completely accurate.

plz ignore my horrid spelling :P

Commento di 167920

I was doing these dailies and quests so I could get though the chain and start getting rep with the Sons of Hodir.
I was doing it along with three others though we were not in group. After doing all the quests and unlocking the first daily defending your title we all set off to do it. You'd imagine our shock when after opening my very first bag there the mount was! I have screenshot's as proof and the other players were there to see me learn and summon it for the first time. We were all shocked!

Commento di 297643

I did this quest every day since November. Yesterday, I finally got it. I kept getting the "you don't meet the requirements message too" on the Back to the Pit Quest, but I got it in my bag after doing the destroy the aberrations quest. It's my favorite mount... I was so sick of doing those quests. Keep trying, it will drop eventually.

Commento di 336329

@Sherdiska
You have given me hope to keep trying. I too have done this almost daily since leveling as fast as I could to reach a high enough level to begin this torture! Its been so long and still no Polar Bear. One person I know has gotten four. But I'll keep going. Eventually the quest giver may tire of being pelted with snowballs and hand over those reins. If I could throw the cheese and water I would do the same hehe.

Commento di 334270

I finally got mine after two weeks of doing this daily. Thank jebus I never have to do those annoying quests ever again.

Commento di 65101

I am from US - Tichondrius and I've only been getting one daily, every single day since mid-December. After doing all the quests from Brunnhildar I was getting Aberrations every day with one of the others being random. One day I went out to do them and only got one.

Having asked the zone and guild members, I found I was not the only one who was only getting offered one and it's been like this for a long time. I run this daily every day without fail on two characters and since that day I have not gotten more than one daily.

I've talked with several people in and out of guild and they too have not gotten more then one a day for a long time.

Has anyone else experienced this on other servers?

Commento di Ginby

Was the second or third person on my server to get it way back near release, did the daily for fun today, bam, another bear=P

Commento di Alisious

Just got mine this morning. I was already exhaulted , I was bored and rolled in for the dailies and did this quest while I was here. Its cool, I had pretty much given up on getting this....

Commento di 202925

While I agree with Admon's analysis above, perhaps this is a more generally accessible way to think about it.

If the rate of the event (getting the item) is 1 out of 100 (1%). The probability of the event not happening in any one chance (getting the bag) is 100% - 1% = 99%. This means that the probability of the event not happening in any one time is 99%.

The probability of the event not happening in two chances is .99 x .99 = .98 -- therefore the probability of the event happening in two chances is 1-.98 = .02 (2%)

The probability of it not happening in 10 events is .99^10 = .904 -- therefore the probability of the event happening is 1-.904 = .096 (9.6%)

The probability of the event not happening in 100 chances is .99^100 = .366 -- therefore the probability of the event happening in 100 chances is 1-.366 = 63.4%

Consistent with what the previous poster suggested, there is no number of chances that guarantees that it will load. There are numbers that make it not loading improbable.

Hope this was helpful.

Commento di 327390

I logged on for a few minutes today to check the Higher Learning books, and on a whim decided to go over to Storm Peaks and take a crack at the daily(for the first time in a few weeks; just couldn't be arsed to do it lately).

I was shocked to see the reins in my bags. Needless to say that kinda made my day. =D

So a pretty good Easter for me, even with Noblegarden being delayed!

As a side note (please don't hate) you CAN get this item twice on the same character. The website won't let me upload atm for some reason but I got my second mount today after getting my first only 3 days ago. Since it's BoP the second was useless and I cried for everyone trying to get it as I deleted it. :(

Commento di 368185

Ok Peeps, Sillo here. (part 2 of Sillo's Grind Guide)

first of all. you will need to do the prequest to get this mount. it starts at some female viking at the cave to Brunnhildar.

ones done this you can start. do every daily, every day and eventually you will get it.
it took me like 20 bags. thats like 15 days of doing daily's to get it.

hang in there farmers. its a lonely existence. but if you want somethin you'll have to work for it ;)

ALSO: please react to my post on the world of warcraft europe forums. i vote for that they call this mount ''Brunnhildar Polar Bear'' or Hildnyr Polar bear'' beqause i find White Polar Bear Mount a very boring name!

FYI you can get the reins more than once. Unfortunately its bop and you cannot vendor additional drops. Hurts to destroy an epic mount!

Commento di 370101

It just dropped for me on the first try! Didn't even knew about this bag, so i just forgot this on my inventory, now i've opened it and i got it!

Looting
Mount

Commento di 373505

Ok i may be wrong but after 100 chances, you still will only have a 1% chance. Correct me if need be but if you did it 10000 times it would still be a 1% drop chance.

Commento di 372604

Got mine yesterday from the Maintaining Discipline daily, unlocked these months ago but only put them into my daily circuit Thursday and got it a week later :D I guess I'm one of the lucky ones.

Commento di 380915

Got mine this morning, I was flying over the area and thought i could use some more gold so i did it and when i opened the bag there it was in purple letters. I almost had a fit XD

Commento di NorzkenolZn

I got the mount today on my first "bag" ever haha

Commento di 366438

I will past a post I made earlier. ~1% my @ $$.

I started keeping track.....after a long while, the number indicate what I had been thinking up to when I started keeping track. When starting a daily or what every that involved a luck bag, I always knew which of my toons would get it before the others.

In reference to what drops out of bags in game, i have been informed by blue that it is completely random.

I am gonna call shenanigans on that.

I have a few characters that i do dailies on. My main raiding toon, which is the one i post with has EXTREMELY bad luck on ingame luck bags. I honestly didnt think I would ever come to post this complaint but, wow, its starting to become too much. I have been keeping track as an experiment when the fishing daily was added. I decided to do this based on the trend that I was starting to see between my toons.

This toon: 88% of the bags have had Useless glass pieces of all colors along with the deviate fish and sometimes a glow worm. This is the same toon that has done the Brunn daily everyday since the first week of Dec. 2008 (missed 4 days total spread through the time) and still no white bear mount. 5628 fish from solid blocks of time farming the turtle and no drop. This does not include fish i catch when i see a pool during dailys.

One of my other toons: 31% of the bags have had useless glass of various colors. Most bags have had a good vendor item. Plus many with the other stuff. This toon has everything but the tiff pole. This toon got the Brunn mount on the 6th time doing the daily. This toon got the turtle while doing a fishing daily.

Yet another toon:47% of the bags have had useless glass of various colors. Bear mount on 16th time doing the Brunn daily.

What I'm getting at.....I would really love to see the code or Random Number generator that decides this stuff. If it is so random, it seems the numbers would be closer over the length of time I have done this.

Commento di 290241

My friend was not getting it for the long time, and then got 2 in a row. =)

Commento di 355985

Got it on my first daily ._. I looked at this page, then I decided to do a daily and I got it yay!
Now please downrate me for useless information, sorry. Just had to share >.<

Btw Seaborn ^ Wall of text hits you for over 9000k!

Commento di Ovplain

Finally got it today, took forever.

Commento di 414824

I only get snowballs every day :(
And yesterday i couldn't pick up the daily quest :s

Commento di 414891

ive been doing these dailies well over 100 times so far and i have yet to get the mount drop >< some times i wonder if the quest giver is glitching cause when i turn in quest she still gives me the bag but it will make the sound like my quest log is full (but its not) i still get to turn it in and get reward just never a bear in the bag. anyone else getting the sound effect when they turn in quest ? im sure its just in my head, but im getting tired of doing these stupid dailies and really need this mount for my 100 mounts...setting at 82 so far.

Commento di 408380

lol, i got this mount from the first bag i had ever gotten i wasn't even started with the sons of hodir yet. lucky me hehe

Commento di 418066

today was the first time i've done this daily, accidentally saw it, done it, and voila, this was in the bag. on my first try, 1% drop rated bear, really lucky.. and i didn't even know this was dropped from that bag

Commento di thomasroyal

I read this post yesterday because I saw the white polar bear mount in Dalaran and loved it and wanted to know how to obtain it. So I did the daily last night, received my Hyldnir Spoils, and ... HOLY CRAP... the Reins of the White Polar Bear were inside. I was floored. I thought it would take me months of trying as well. But nope... one shotted.

So for all of you wondering if this thing does drop... miracles do happen. Just keep trying. I was just lucky I only had to try once.

Makes up for the all the damn eggs I've been buying to try to get the damn Green Proto Drake.

Commento di Doordom

Getting this bear is kinda getting me $%^&ed, i did the dailies at least 30times and it has
never dropped so far only some damn snow balls

Commento di 92685

I have been doing this quest since February of this year and it has YET to drop

Commento di 428175

Just got my second one... and yes i rarely do the quest :D... sorry everyone XD

Commento di arogon

I have literally been doing this daily every day since December 08' i still dont have the mount. I talked to a friend and he got it on his first try, he didnt even know it was rare. Talk about bad luck.

Commento di 338612

Just got mine after about 2 months... and aptly after Back to the Pit. https://www.cuckhead.com/cata/quest=13424

Commento di 156061

This is my lucky mount. I was stuck at 49 mounts for the albino drake achiv, so i dicided to go here just to see if the mount would drop. Guess what happened :D.

Commento di 430083

I have been doing this for a total of more or less seven months now, and i still havent seen it. Guess Gnomes are to small to ride fluffy bears or some. Still doing the daily everyday, sometime it must drop, hopefully.

Commento di asloversgo

This mount is called "White Polar Bear"... What colors can polar bears be except white?

Commento di 428156

I felt kinda bad. Didn't realize there were dailies for this. Only had one available to me, to defeat 6 Victorius Challengers. Did the daily, and pulled the Reins out of it. Guess I don't need to do this daily again. Told my guildmates about it, they threatened to /gkick me if it happened again. :(

Commento di Vezon64

If this bear is supposed to drop from the bags, it sure is taking it's sweet, sweet time to drop for me. All I get are those stupid snowballs, cheeses, drinks and what-not...
...but no bear.
Curses...

Commento di Evelyina

For me, it's been about 4 months, doing the quest everyday. Still no polar bear....yet almost everyone in my guild has gotten it. >=(

Commento di 265012

got it on my first daily, but sadly I don't ride it that often. Being the first person on my server with it (got it like 3 weeks after wrath launched) it lost its coolness after everyone got one.

Commento di InTheEmbers

I have several sets of reins in my closet and they work for me every time.

O.o

Oh well. What you do in the privacy of your own home is your business.

Commento di suplup

Random luck is random. Ominous cloud is ominous.

Commento di 480749

Got Snowballs instead of the reins you wanted? Tired of them wasting space in your bags? Throw them at Gretta for being stingy with her reins.

Commento di Towelie

This is very close to the sons of holdir daily quests so it would be a good idea to pick this one up while you are doing those dailys.

Commento di shinigamie

The chance you get the mount wont ever change, everytime you get a new bag youre chance stays 1% doesnt matter how many bags you opened before it, but the chance you dont got it after opening alot bags ofcourse is smaller but the droprate wil never become 100% even when you open 50.000.000.000 bags

Commento di 487489

I really wish every damn pair in this game didn't have the ugly bridle and goggles. All I want is a polar bear to ride, that looks just like a normal NPC polar bear or something. Hell, maybe give him some awesome looking armor, but the stupid bridle and goggles just looks retarded.

Commento di 487565

One of my friends says the mount now is unable to get.. Is it true?

Commento di 84945

I've been doing this daily just about every day since Wotlk started, not counting a couple of times where I quit Wow, and I'm still to get this damn bear...

Commento di 573351

Been trying for about a month and no luck, thing is I see so many people with this mount. Surprising.

Commento di 475386

Been trying for this for some time, is it a rare drop?

Commento di nguyenhothanh

For those whom Lady Luck has not knocked your door yet, try gamble your luck with this method of mine (let me warn you, it's not guaranteed, and it does NOT change the drop rate, but it doesn't hurt to try either):

do the daily quest from Gretta.
return it and get the Hyldnir Spoils.
don't open it yet, save it until you have 5-10 bags.
when your patience runs out and you can't stand seeing those idling spoils in your backpack, prepare yourself!
eat a Tasty Cupcake to gain confidence (comedy purpose, you can skip it).
hold your breath, open all those spoils as fast as you open your Christmas presents.
with luck, the purple thing will appear in your loot table. If it doesn't, curse me with all your heart's content :D.

I was farming for this mount for 2 months, until I decided to do this and thank gods, it actually dropped! I did it with 5 spoils in my pack, it dropped in the 3rd one.
* Note: opening all those spoils at the same time does NOT mean the mount drop rate increases, it is STILL ~1% for each spoil, and you STILL have to push your luck. However, I find it less desperate than opening the spoil immediately after receiving it and get disappointed every time. As time flows, the desperation rises, you all know it.

Commento di Kannas

Ok, the probability chances for the average Joe. Doing the daily every day does NOT increase the percentage chance of the mount dropping. If you do the daily every day, your chance stays at 1%. However, you will have gotten more chances to open the bag, for that one percent to happen. So, in short, do the damned daily.

Commento di 613901

This is a beary fast mount!

Commento di Shrub

This needs to be an achievement, or at least Feat of Strength and have the quest removed in Cataclysm for unique quality like the Amani War Bear.

Commento di 643734

ice finished the chain yet it wont give me the dailies to get the bag.....what do i ahve to do?

Commento di 670585

If anyone is not seeing a a daily available for a few days like I had you may have missed the quest "Aberrations" @ 25,60 https://www.cuckhead.com/cata/quest=12925

Commento di eli2112

Is there a way to know how many times have I done a daily quest, or how many times have I looted an Item? I've been doing this since it was more than 1 quest a day and I still don't have it (yes, QQ). I would like to track how unlucky I am.

Commento di gizmovision

Blizz raised the drop rate on the Reins of the Green Proto-Drake but not this one...

Commento di 782864

Can someone tell me where the starting quest is to access the daily's?

Commento di 806012

Is this quest bugged for anyone else? Gretta not letting me pick the quest up. Did I miss something like a removal of this one?

Commento di ejpaints

It won't let me reply to an earlier comment yet, but I too was having Gretta refuse to give me the daily for a little while. Came here and Doomzday's advice to go do the quest https://www.cuckhead.com/cata/quest=12925 worked. As soon as I got back and turned it in, Gretta had a daily for me again.

Commento di Juranda

I have been plugging away at this for 3 weeks with 2 toons every day, no luck. Either blizz hates me or I used up all my luck getting the blue drake out of oculus last year. Now I get snowballs and yeti cheese

UPDATE 3/31 landed mount on one toon after not doing daily for a couple of weeks, awesome mount I love it. Don't give up, if anything maybe take a few days off from it and then come back if ur not having luck

Commento di argonas007

Find today, from first time :)

Commento di 883363

FINALLY got this mount today! Used to do it every single day for months, and nothing but cheese and snowballs so I gave up. Was in Storm Peaks today working on archaeology and figured I might as well do it since I'm in the area....sooo glad I did :D

Commento di 985923

I don't know if its just me, but every time I get one of these rare mounts for the first time, I see it drop all the time thereafter. Example, Swift White Hawkstrider I farmed for about a year and a half from the time I started playing until Cata came out. Once I got it to drop, on my main toon at the time (this was going on 3 years ago), every other toon I ran Magisters' Terrace on, it dropped. Most of them the first time in the instance. I ran my Warrior through at level 81 for it's first time, it dropped. Same with my Priest, and my Lock, etc. Same thing with Reins of the White Polar Bear. This was actually one of the best looking ground mounts in the game in my opinion when I first started, I was in love with it. I started farming it and that's what lead me to do other mounts like the Strider, Raven Lord, etc. When I FINALLY got it do drop about 8 months to a year a go, I then proceeded to get it on every other toon that was able to do the daily, and again, most on the first try. My Pally just got it tonight, after 3 attempts since my first one has dropped. I have 10 85s. Of those 10 85s, 9 have Swift White Hawkstrider, and the 4 toons that have the daily unlocked all have Reins of the White Polar Bear. This has happened to me with multiple rare mounts. I don't know I know if it's just me or if others have had similar experiences.

I go so far as when my toons first get of level, I go straight to Magisters' Terrace so that I can have a "cool" mount to ride instead of a gryphon or a horse, because I know it's going to drop 99% of the time.

My best advice: keep at it; once you have one, you might have my luck and get as many as you want. ^_^

Reins of the White Polar Bear is a 1% drop chance from Hyldnir Spoils. Hyldnir Spoils is a reward from the daily provided by Gretta the Arbiter in the Storm Peaks. You will not have the daily until you have completed all the quests in Brunnhildar. Hyldnir Spoils doesn't drop anything good but a handful of gold, and the mount. Other things it contains: Snowball, Mountain Water, and Salted Yeti Cheese. Good luck farming!

(The little bit of information I have provided has been researched, but I'm just a human after all. If I made a mistake or anything in the above paragraph is incorrect, please politely correct me!)

You also have a chance of receiving this item in a Satchel of Exotic Mysteries. You can get the Satchel by que'ing for a Cata Heroic Dungeon by yourself only when the Dungeon Finder shows that you can get the Satchel. Also, now available in mists dungeons.

Commento di Kyndlearya

Received today on Quel'Dorei at 1851 server time. (For data point.) Did religiously for over a month straight with nada, gave up and just did periodically and *poof*. Don't give up.

Commento di Gartax

Wow i did this every day in wrath and collected banks full of snowballs... ( lol )

But today helping my friend get time-lost, decided to stop by to do the daily and poof! Got it, i also got the mount from Aeonaxx today as well... :)

Commento di 897824

Got this mount in the first bag i ever got. If only i was that lucky with the Green Proto drake.

Commento di vu628

it also dropped for me on my first daily quest. i wonder if they changed the droprate?

Commento di 795337

if you're on the quest for this mount, make sure that when you enter the village, you are not on your sandstone drake (Vial of Sands) you can't transform into a Brunnhildar lady if you're already transformed into a drake, so you WILL be attacked, just a warning ;)

Commento di 930283

I've been gathering mounts for MoP, and figured I'd give this daily a shot while I was flying in the area, it was also the first time I had ever done it, and low and behold there is was. So either a lot of us are getting very lucky, or they changed something.

Commento di Forumchibi

I'm also not sure if they changed the droprate at all, however I did the daily on three characters yesterday with no luck, did it with the same three today and got it on my last character. I just parked them all there at the quest giver, and fortunately on both days got the quest to challenge six people, which is great since I didn't have to go anywhere. ;)

Commento di Allakhazam

Where and how do you get this? I wanna get this on my hunter, I think it would go good with the Baby Blizzard Bear and a hunter pet of a white bear from Winterspring @: )

Commento di Allakhazam

I wonder how does a bear fit in a small bag like that?

Commento di leviathen7

you can double dip on the daily if you do it then do the couple quests that sisters offer you to smash dragon eggs to unlock another daily the same day.

Commento di GhettyDots

Wish it was more white and less brown - Reins of the Armored Brown Bear looks very similar.

Commento di ywii

427 attempts, still no drop not sure if I'm doing anything wrong, any help is appreciated

Commento di R1p0ne0ut

So, I'm just updating this thread as I just got it. So, as of 10/15/2023, I confirm 100% that it still drops. I've farmed this almost every week since WOLTK. Eventually, it's going to drop so keep farming it.
