Used for rep with The Sons of Hodir, much like the netherwing eggs.

There seems to be a major problem with Everfrost Chip objects: phasing. I've now come across three that, while I could see them from a distance and tooltip over them to confirm what they were, phasing prevented me from looting them. As I approached, I would change sub-zones and they would disappear from my sight. Keep this in mind, and try reporting any you see that vanish via phasing. I suspect they shouldn't be doing this.

Like the eggs, once you pick one up, a new one spawns. So it could easily be true that there are only two up at any one time. They might have put a limit to how many respawns there can be during a period of say, an hour. Then the numbers could be something like, two up at a time, 5 respawns per hour. I just found 6 in about 45-60 minutes at least, and I don't think there was anyone else scouting for them.

As others have mentioned, they can be hard to spot. Unlike Netherwing Eggs, they have no glow, sparkles or any particle effect that makes them easier to spot. They are just small blue shards sticking up from the ground.
They can spawn inside the Dun Niffelem area as well as around it. I have yet to find any inside the cave with the worms and blobs, but I wouldn't be surprised if they could spawn there as well.

After hearing about the phasing issue i decided to run along the cliff edges on my flying mount (To avoid mobs if i aggro them - Just fly upwards) i ended up finding 5 in a 15 minute run from Brunnhildar Village to Thunderfall and back around to Brunnhildar.

Not many people are aware of these items yet.

Spent about 2 hours farming for these, found 13, most of them in high areas. Not sure if this is the case, but all 13 were around tree clusters and seem to spawn mostly around trees. No competition either in the area so said others said before, only a select few seem to be in the zone at a time.

Is there anyone that could make a bit more detailed map of these Everfrost Chips? I've been flying around for 3 hours and yet to find more than one spawn point..

Alright, I'm going to try to explain to you all how to find Everfrost Chips. I got exalted with the Sons of Hodir in about 4 days of casual visits to the Storm Peaks, granted I was my server's first level 80 so I had an advantage in that noone else was farming them.

I added a screenshot map to the top of this thread as a point of reference. I marked 6 distinct areas that I believe are exclusive spawn zones for the Everfrost Chips and I am researching the possibilty of a 7th zone. What I mean is: only one chip can be spawned in each zone at any given point in time. If you find a chip in Thunderfall (zone 1) you can rest assured there are no other chips to be found and continue your search. I tried to be as accurate as possible with the boundary lines but frankly I'm not completely sure where some of them lie so if you're having trouble finding a chip in one of the zones it would be wise to check across the boundary lines I drew in case I made an error. There are certainly many everfrost chips that spawn very near to the zone boundaries.

Zone 1 is Thunderfall. Most of the Chips in this zone are ground level, I have seen some along the low level cliffs along the western side of the zone but not too high up in the mountains, they are often spawned near the frozen warriors and can be very difficult to spot.

Zone 2 is the mountain range southeast of Thunderfall. The everfrost chips can spawn almost anywhere in this mountain range but I haven't seen many (if any) on the west side of the range towards thunderfall, they are almost always at very high elevation or on the east face of the mountain obscured by trees.

Zone 3 is the lake east of Dun Niffelem. The chips in this area are once again typically obscured by trees or in less-visited places. I vaguely recall finding a chip on the frozen lake once but have not seen one there since, and cannot confirm that they spawn on the lake itself.

Zone 4 is Dun Niffelem. Everfrost chips in this area are typically very easy to find. They are rarely obscured at all and often spawn in the middle of the white ledges that the Sons of Hodir stand on, so they tend to stick out like a sore thumb, albeit a very small sore thumb.

Zone 5 is the eastern half of the Valley of Ancient Strife. Everfrost chips can spawn almost anywhere here. I have found them along the north and south walls of the canyon, in the wide-open center of the canyon, on the overlooking cliffs, and tucked away in the dark corners of the zone. Notably, I have even found them along the bottom part of the path that leads upward toward the Terrace of the Makers.

Zone 6 is the western half of the Valley of Ancient Strife. Typically the Everfrost Chips in this area will spawn along the mountains, either at the base of them along the edges of the valley or higher up on the overlooking cliffs. I have not seen any however spawned out in the open center section of this area. I have found Everfrost Chips reaching up to the borders of Bruunhildar Village, but found none inside the village itself.

Closing tips: Look in the small tree groves, out in the open and overlooking cliffs. I haven't ever found an overfrost chip that was mostly obscured from line of sight, they don't seem to spawn under trees or in any location where they are for all intents and purposes invisible. Happy hunting!

Turning the game's shadows to the second "tick" in the bar will make chips easier to spot as they will cast a shadow, if they aren't overshadowed by something bigger ofc.

not a 100% chance to get a chip, much to my chagrin

I can confirm that the quest is definately available at friendly, and I am quite sure that there is an Everfrost Chip in each of them, but since they contain a chip and powder to people that have at least friendly reputation with the Sons of Hodir, it could be that someone looted the chip but left the powder behind.
I've seen this happen before in Zangarmarsh where a random herb would only contain Unidentified Plant Parts.

Today something weird happened. Since im exalted since yesterday I have been selling some chips. I open the chip(also in the 3 situations below), wait till people paid me the gold amount and than let them loot the chip.

But today three times in a row the same guy couldnt loot the chip in it. I even checked if he could loot it in party. The first time I didnt check if he looted it, but he said he couldnt. I thought it was a lie so than we did 2 tests so I could see if he was lying or not.

The 2nd time he opened the chip (after I opened it first) and he couldnt see it. He left the Everfrost Powder in it, because this time it didnt despawn. After that I opened it and I COULD see the Everfrost Chip. So I just looted it.

The 3rd time I just wanted to be sure that he couldnt loot it. So as a test I looted the everfrost powder so there would be only an Everfrost Chip in it. He opened it and found nothing strangely. When he stopped looting the chip suddenly the chip dissapeares.

I gave him the gold back cause we had proof that he couldnt loot it. I was in the party itself and saw myself that he couldnt loot the Everfrost Chip when the chip dissapeared.

For some reason some people can loot the Everfrost Chip after you opened it and other cant. Cause ive also been selling chips to other people who could just easily reopen it and take the Everfrost Chip out of it.

And the guy was revered btw, so he should be able to loot the chip, but he couldnt. :/

Maybe its a bug or maybe its not a 100% drop chance? I will sell more chips and report it here if I find this experience with more people.

Anyway an advice if your selling chips: dont loot the everfrost powder cause if this bug happens, than you lose the everfrost chip too. For me it doesnt matter much, just 6.5g to turn it in, but if your not exalted you still get the 350 rep ofcourse.

A little sage advice if I may...

If your computer can handle it, fiddle with the 'effects' under your graphic/video interface and turn up the draw distance, ground effect density, environmental detail, and anything else you may find helpful to pick out the chips. Using these controls, and boosting a few over the maximum with commands like "/console groundeffectdensity" you can see the chips from farther away, enabling you to wait for a shorter time for the different areas to visually load. It saves minutes a day on your searches, and in the long run, it adds up.

I have noticed that the majority of the chips are around the base of trees. I haven't found any out in the open yet, but I'm sure they are out there.

I have farmed Everfrost Chips today morning for 2h (from 7:00 to 9:00) and found 10 pieces. The relation to find the chips on open field or near trees ist 50/50 - if you are alone in the area.
I have submited four screenshots where you can see how easy it is to find the chips on open field and how "difficult" to find these near trees - i hope, the screenshots get published.

the one located at 73,65 has the phasing issue. if you fly in from the north, u will see it, but it will disappear as you get closer. seems when you change zones from peaks to the anvil, it phases out.
i was able to get the chip when flying in from the south. just get behind the chip while staying in storm peaks zone, and it will not phase out.

hope this helps will other phasing locations. try to get them from a different position so they do not phase out

"What I mean is: only one chip can be spawned in each zone at any given point in time."

I believed this until last night when I saw two up at the same time in Dun Niffelem. Sorry, no screenshot, I tried but I didnt see the other one until after I had already started looting the first. By the time I got my view set up to have them both in plain sight the first one had faded. I dont think the screenshot I took has any of the first one in it.

If it can happen once, it'll happen again im sure.

The 2 spawns that were up were directly SE of the last E in Brunnhildar Village.

I don't think they're on separate boundaries.

But I made a screenshot! Two everfrost chips in the same area are possible. Look at the picture besides the one I'm looting in the center there is another one in the top right.

Thanks christopher848 for the hints and his remarks, I hit exalted today.

OK, I must be doing something wrong, because as far as I can tell these things are mythical. I followed all the tips above, I checked the maps here and on thottbot, and I spent over 90 minutes searching the indicated areas, and I haven't found a single one. WTF?

评论来自 daunte

I get the feeling that there's simply less liklihood that two will spawn close. Purely because there's such a large area in which they can spawn, in the regions identified by Christopher.

I have also seen two shards within spitting distance, one on the edge of the lake in the stand of trees, and another at the next stand of trees in thunderfall. So...two that are close, but in differing regions.

I do agree that there are some obvious patterns in node spawns, particularly with ore. EPL is a classic example, but I'm quite certain those who don't believe now won't be swayed by another exposition on the topic.

I downloaded Gathermate and Gathermate_Data from Curse.se (since Gatherer didn't show the locations.) After two flyovers i found three Everfrost chips. I can really recommend Gathermate if your Gatherer doesn't show aswell.

评论来自 46440

I made the mistake of finding two very close together. I had not turned in the first one and when I looted the second one, I did not get a chip.

Be sure to turn in your chip as soon as you find it. I found out the hard way that looting one while having a chip in your bag is likely to turn into grabbing nothing but the dust.

评论来自 mrcodez

Dwarf racial find treasure does not show these.

评论来自 Draylynn

There seems to be only one chip between all phases. Phase = Step of reputation you have completed with the Sons of Hodir (Opening of the anvil, the shining of the helm, the den mother's aid etc etc).
If you complete a route and absolutely cannot find any chips, consider it lost in phase.
Some chips out of your phase can be opened by flying straight at them and catching the open function as quick as possible, you will not recieve the chip, but after 3 mins, the chip will despawn, respawning in that same phase, or possibly your own!

Обломок вечной мерзлоты = Everfrost Chip, sorry for russian screenshot :)

I believe the answer is probably no, but can these be tracked by miners?

74, 54 not near any trees or anything, just on side of snowy mountain.

I looted two shards within 10 yards of eachother in the mountain range South-East of Thunderfall.

评论来自 divinebaboon

Dwarves can use their racial "Find Treasure" Tracking ability to find these.

评论来自 73271

I'm a dwarf and they are about shoulderheight for me. I can also confirm that they mostly spawn arround trees (makes them a bit harder to spot).

评论来自 18513

The phase-chip at 73,65 can be approached from the south, but has to be done on foot.
Land a little bit to the south-east behind the backdrop of trees. You should still be in "Storm peaks". Approach the shard on foot. I had to use a little bit of blind clicking to find the shard, as you have to stand IN the tree to be in phase with the shard. (The pine branch obscures the view.)

A Note About Scale --

These wonderful beauties have proven very difficult for me to farm. For some reason, I have zero patience when it comes to farming via killing mobs over and over again, yet, I'll fly around for hours, squinting at my screen, trying to find some random ground spawn ... go figure!

Anyway, below is a pic of just how hard it can be to see these chips while doing a fly-over:

http://i79.photobucket.com/albums/j160/denaliiwow/everfrostchipscale.jpg

And, a couple of observations (based solely on my own experiences in finding chips):

The chips are almost always on a white background (like, the white snow)

Of the few chips I've found, they have always been near a cluster of trees.

The nearby tree models have bits and pieces that look like chips.

Some of the shadow textures on the hills/mountains look like chips.

Sometimes, even NPCs from far away can look like chips.

Just don't get too upset if you're not finding them right away. When I started, I really had NO clue what I was actually looking for ... but, now, kind of like the black smoke that eminated from the Netherwing eggs, I know what to look for.

Best of luck!

评论来自 wtribe

I just submitted a screenshot of two chips near each other for those that haven't actually seen it happen. I haven't farmed them enough to deny or corroborate any particular theories above, but this would seem to go against a single spawn in one zone, as they're both right off of the lake and not really close to Niffelem.

I was doing the Hodir dailies recently, and I stumbled upon one of these at the northern edge of Frostfield Lake (I had only seen it one other time elsewhere). However, I was already exalted with Sons of Hodir, so I whispered my friend, who was currently in Gun'Drak. I knew that he'd want this to up his rep, so I thought of a way to hide it from the rest of the people killing the revenants there. And what did I do? I mounted onto my Black War Mammoth, and stuck the chip under his foot. Eventually, my friend finished the run, grouped up with me, and flew to where I was. He got the chip, paid me 10 gold as thanks, and flew off again to turn it in. In the end, my poor mammoth's foot was sore, but my friend finally reached Honored with the Sons.

Who knew something so big could be so handy? ;)

I'm not sure what this "phase" nonsense is all about. It has not mattered what level of rep I am at with the Sons of Hodir. I've never approached one and had it disappear or not give me anything and respawn in a few mins. Its a matter of being patient and flying/running around the same limited area over and over. Sometimes in one fly around I will get 3, sometimes only 1.

They do seem to be found near collections of trees often, sometimes up on precarious ledges (still with trees) and occasionally out in the middle of nowhere with nothing around it such as the frozen lake. If you have flown around a few times and found nothing, take a break and kill some things to get the Relics of Ulduar and give it some time. I'll kill enough to get around 20 of them and turn that in and resume flying, soon enough I will find another chip.

Just found one in less than five minutes, using the hit map here showing Wowohead client data and starting in the eastern tip of Thunderfall. I didn't even have to leave it. Is it that easy for everyone? This is the Moon Guard server, which these days is described as high traffic.
