Secret Lair of the Snowmen

Description
The quest Lost Treasure of King Hundar from Koris Deeprunner in Umbral Grotto takes you to the Secret Lair of the Snowmen where you must help Koris to find the king's lost treasure. The cave is full of level 15 snowmen which attack you with Snow fighting skills to protect their secret lair. You must first find a Dungeon Key and then a Boss Key by defeating Freezie in order to reach the end of the quest. There is an area map you can read that will help you find the key points. Talking to each Beacon of Droknar as you progress helps you to gain Dwarven reputation points. Because of the high number of low level opponents this is a fast and very easy method to gain reputation.

At the end of the dungeon a Chest of Wintersday Past spawns, giving two consumable Wintersday items for normal mode and four consumable Wintersday items for hard mode.

This quest is repeatable. You must rezone after claiming the reward for it to become available again.

Trivia

 * The map is the same as the fourth floor of Frostmaw's Burrows.
 * The quests The Strength of Snow and Straight to the Heart also take place on this map.
 * While the recipe calls the beer an ale, and Koris uses the term multiple times in the dungeon, he calls it a lager in his dialogue if you speak to him after accepting the quest reward.
 * One of the Mischievous Snowmen who pushes an ice boulder at the party during the first segment of the dungeon says, "Son of a Grentch must pay." This is a reference to Jack Burton from Big Trouble In Little China.
