Guild Wars 2

Don’t have much time to play so I’m not far along in the quest line. I’m on the bitter cold quest. Looks like I need to kill some boss type creature but I can’t seem to find the place. Every time I go to the area that’s marked I get my butt handed to me by the veteran Kodan and their wolves. Should I be grouped or am I just in the wrong section. Any direction here would be awesome. Thanks.

The mobs are tougher to normal attacks to encourage use of the torch, esp the vets. That Kodan near the entrance to Bitter Cold can be nasty, so either grab a torch and burn him down or run past.

If it’s the part I think you’re on…you’re trying to get to it the wrong way. You’ll need to glide in, look for a thermal tube that points in that direction.

I’m just coming back after a long break so I’m new to HoT so I’m missing a lot of the masteries I need to take advantage of the tubes. Not sure how to get the Kodan one.

You do not require tubes for any part of the story. You walk into the Bitter Cold then you work your way up and round along paths and glide onto where the green star is. It should be clear how to proceed from there. The Kodan en route are merely annoying vets.
