Odin: Valhalla Rising – How to Unlock the Secret Frost Wolf Mount

Aug-06-2025 PST

In Odin: Valhalla Rising, few mounts turn heads like the mystical Frost Wolf — a rare, icy-blue beast that’s both a status symbol and Odin Diamonds a practical advantage for traversal. Unlike regular mounts available via quests or shops, the Frost Wolf must be unlocked through a sequence of secret tasks, elite battles, and exploration across Midgard and Jotunheim. This guide walks you through every step needed to obtain this legendary mount.

What is the Frost Wolf Mount?

The Frost Wolf is a large, spectral wolf with glowing blue eyes and frost-covered fur. It boasts:

+20% movement speed

+10% stamina regeneration

Cold resistance buff

A unique howl animation

More importantly, it shows you’ve mastered part of Odin’s hidden content.

Step 1: Reach Level 60 and Unlock Jotunheim

Before you can begin the Frost Wolf questline, you must:

Reach Level 60

Complete the main Midgard storyline

Unlock access to Jotunheim via the Bifrost Gate

Tips to reach Level 60 quickly:

Focus on daily dungeons and elite boss raids

Join a guild for EXP bonuses

Use XP scrolls from the marketplace or login rewards

Once you're 60 and Jotunheim is available, head there to begin the questline.

Step 2: Locate the Hidden NPC in Frostfang Pass (Jotunheim)

The Frost Wolf quest does not appear in your quest log unless triggered manually.

How to find the NPC:

Travel to Frostfang Pass, a snowy region in northeastern Jotunheim

Coordinates: X:421 Y:678

Look for a frozen cave entrance behind a waterfall

Inside, you'll find Eira the Frost-Seer, a ghostly NPC who gives the first cryptic quest:

“Tame the Cold: Prove your strength to the beasts of winter.”

Accept it to initiate the mount chain.

Step 3: Defeat 3 Winter Beasts

You must slay three powerful world monsters that represent the spirit of winter:

Glacial Sabretooth – Midgard, Icehowl Den

Spawns every 6 hours

Weak to fire attacks

Drops Sabretooth Claw

Frostwing Roc – Jotunheim, Skycrack Peak

Spawns every 12 hours

Avoid its aerial frost breath

Drops Roc’s Frozen Feather

Whitehide Yeti – Jotunheim, Ymir’s Spine

Spawns only during snowstorms

High HP and stun attacks

Drops Yeti’s Heart Shard

Each kill must be soloed or in a party where you get last-hit credit.

Step 4: Offer the Beast Totems at the Frost Shrine

Once you have:

Sabretooth Claw

Frozen Feather

Heart Shard

Return to Eira’s cave. She’ll instruct you to visit the Frost Shrine, located at:

Glacier Hollow, north of Jotunheim

At the shrine, interact with the altar to offer the items. This unlocks the next step: Trial of the Ancients.

Step 5: Complete the Trial of the Ancients

This is a timed solo challenge — a combat gauntlet with three waves of enemies:

Ice Spirits – Weak mobs, swarming attacks

Frost Revenants – Elites that cast AoE freeze spells

Spirit of the Frost Wolf – A mini-boss version of the mount

Tips:

Equip cold-resistance runes

Use DoT (damage-over-time) abilities to outlast frost armor phases

Bring stamina potions – you can't mount or heal during the trial

Upon completion, you’ll receive the Frost Wolf Sigil.

Step 6: Solve the Howling Stone Puzzle

To prove yourself worthy of taming the Frost Wolf, head to the Howling Stones, a circle of standing stones located in:

Wailing Glacier, southeast Jotunheim

There, interact with the stones in the correct order. The hint lies in the inscription on the Frost Wolf Sigil:

“First the fang, then the breath, last the heart.”

Correct order:

Stone with wolf fang symbol

Stone with frost breath swirl

Stone with cracked heart icon

If done correctly, a cutscene plays where a spirit wolf appears, growls approvingly, and vanishes — leaving behind the Frost Wolf Whistle.

Final Step: Summon and Register Your Frost Wolf

Go to your Mount Menu, and click “Register New Mount”. Use the Frost Wolf Whistle to register it.

Congratulations! You can now summon your Frost Wolf Mount any time. It has unique idle animations, including:

Howling at the sky during snow

Pawing ice into the air

Frost breath effects when idle

Optional Bonus: Frost Wolf Skins

After unlocking the mount, speak to Eira again. She now offers cosmetic upgrades for the mount:

Midnight Frost – Black and blue fur, requires Shadow Ice Crystal x10

Runic Alpha – Engraved armor plating, requires Ancient Rune Stones x5

These can be obtained from:

Seasonal events

Guild PvP tournaments

Trading with NPCs in Vanaheim
