A very fun encounter. Once you reach Lich King and bash him a few times (let out some pent up anger...) Jaina will freeze him. At this point, head out the door, staying with Jaina. You will be pursued by the Lich King, slowed. As you run, the Lich King will put up ice barriers, which Jaina will destroy. Protect her from the undead while she does so. Continue to do this until you get out of the cave, and helpers will come and cave in the cave. At this point, the dungeon is done.

Crash bandicoot boulder levels, anyone? Wonder if you have to jump over any pits on the way out

Commento di Icecoldcoke

When you defeat the wave of mobs, she breaks down the barrier blocking you, I believe there are 5 barriers total. I'm not sure what happens if you're too slow, and the Lich King reaches your group.

If you wipe on this part of the dungeon, it can be restarted by talking to Jaina, or Slyvanas again.

"Moments before your leader dies, she will freeze the Lich King in place and urge you to run and try to escape."

What do they mean by "your leader"? Surely Jaina/Sylvanas won't die, right?

Commento di Rankkor

well, this may be old news but what the heck, I'll just put it here anyways.

there is a mild spoiler alert here.

the 5man fight against the lich king, isn't a fight per se, it's more of an event a la Tribunal of Ages in HoS.

when you reach the lich king, he's fighting your faction guide (jaina for alliance, sylvannas for the horde) and OMG they actually manage to solo 7kk of his health o_O girl power!.

anyhow, when you reach them, your guide decides the lich king is too strong, then she freezes him with a spell that will lock him in place for about 20 secs, and then the encounter starts.

during the entire encounter you are running away from the lich king, he has a passive aura arround him, it reduces his movement speed by 75% but it will deal about 8k damage per second to anyone standing within 10 yards or closer to the lich king (AKA instant death)

the whole event takes place in a long straight narrow corridor, at specific points the lich king will summon a massive ice wall, and then summon adds, the adds consist of non-elite ghouls, elite vargul spellcasters, and elite abominations.

the idea of the encounter is to protect your guide (jaina or sylvanas) while she breaks the barrier, you must kill the adds FAST because you have limited time before the lich king reaches you, once all adds are dead the barrier breaks, you run some more and the whole process is repeated.

the lich king summons a grand total of 4 barriers, each harder than the previous one, with increasing numbers of adds to deal with.

do note that it's crucial to protect your guide (jaina or sylvannas) because if she dies, then the lich king will execute his skill "fury of the frostmourne" dealing 1.000.000 non-resistable shadow damage to the whole group, efectively WFTPWN1-shoting the whole party.

SPOILER ALERT

after the last barrier is down, you reach a cliff, and there are no more places to run or hide, the lich king keeps aproaching you, and just when you think is all over, KAPUT, your faction's gunship (skybreaker for alliance, ogrim's hammer for horde) shows up, and opens fire on the tunnel, collapsing it, and blocking the lich king from reaching you.

on board of the ship is a chest with the loot, and a portal to dalaran.

overall, this is one exelent fight, made even more cool by the epic music that comes with it.

this fight represents the Pinnacle of 5man content on the entire expantion, and the loot of this fight, it's the best loot avaliable in 5man dungeons both regular and heroic on the entire game, till the arrival of cataclysm of course.

you just can't get anything better than this on a 5man (save for emblem farming but that's another story)

Uhhh, Quick Question, Jaina is a Mage... one of the best in game if I'm not mistaken... Why the hell are we breaking down walls when she has a spell that Automatically ports us to SW Keep... (Used in the Wrath Gate Quest Chain.)

Commento di 146010

Ensure that the tank is the last one in the running order. The enemies summoned will snap to the closest target when they spawn, so it can help in grabbing aggro. Just stay focused and it'll be over soon enough.

Oh, and don't do what I did and try to battle the lich king while he's putting the beatdown on Sylvanas. I took aggro, he turned and whacked me for once 30k (as a tank), which applied a debuff that ticked for 40k. Needless to say, I died in short order.

So yeah, don't be a hero. :P

Commento di 478168

This fight is very hard as a Warrior. You have to build agro on a lot of mobs at once so if your DPS are a bunch of idiots without Omen there is a good chance they will die. So put vigilance on the squishiest or highest dps one there.

Commento di 328647

I must applaud Blizzard for this encounter. I went with some random people with the new thing, looking to just do the first one. I was mistaken. We had an epic adventure, from fighting giant frost....giants to killing some of my favorite dudes in lore. The part where I saw the Lich King and started roughing him up a bit was amazing. But what made it truly epic was the fact that here we are. Waves of undead running after me. The slow Lich King, moving slowly after us. The ending really did it. I won't spoil it for anyone who hasn't done it, but the magnitude of this encounter made this patch worth it.

Heres to you, those PuGs I met from Kalecgos. - Fil

Commento di Mythricia

As a little warning when you first see the Lich King fighting Jaina/Sylvanas, be careful about running up and hitting him....

I did so the first time and nothing really happened, I wanded him once and ran along.. The second time, however, I got insta-owned the second I hit him while he was still fighting Sylvanas.. We had enough time for a shammy to resurrect me and carry on, but it was surprising anyway! And I really mean insta-own. No fast-ticking damage or AoE, just, instantly, pow, dead, kaput!

So, be careful, it seems you might just outright die if you touch him, if you're unlucky.

Commento di Legaia

Running from the Lich King down the spiraling path while Jaina destroys barricades of ice for you as you escape. Enemies, the scourge chase you as try to get to the bottom.

This encounter truly felt like I was escaping Gannondorf's castle from The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time. After you kill him the first time inside the castle, the structure begins to collapse and its up to another blonde heroine to aid us with her unreal powers.

Epic indeed.

Commento di vertibirdo

be sure not to pull Lich King's aggro, while he is fighting your Jaina/Sylvanas or he will simply one-shot you)

Commento di 105060

Lich King seems to move faster the further you are from him. If your groups dps is low, killing the last wave in time might be a bit hard.

Your ranged dps should nuke down the caster mobs while tank picks up all abominations. Staying close to Lich King gives you more time to dps the mobs, but you have to move to not let his aura hit you.

Commento di 496140

We got to the Arthas encounter but found ourselves having a hard time killing all the mobs before Arthas got to Sylvannus. Our group comp was druid on heals, DK tank, and arms warrior, marks hunter and ret pally on dps. Our problem was getting the caster adds rounded up without getting nuked by Arthas' aoe.

After a couple of wipes our tank said "What if we try killing the mobs behind Arthas, in stead of in front of him?" We opted to give it one more go using this strat.

So we went to the left of the doorway where the script starts and let Arthas pass. He just walked right by us, paying us no attention. Then, when he spawned the mobs, they all came to us and we were right on top of where the casters spawned. We burned them down fast, rinsed and repeated through all four ice walls. Made the encounter easier whereas before we were not quit getting it done due to the casters.

The only caveat I will add is that you have to run like the !@#$ens after the last mobs are dead to be sure to catch up with Arthas and Sylvannus at the balcony. We barely made it, although I don't know if that's because it's scripted or because we barely made it!

These are some fun new dungeons for sure. :)

Cheers, and good luck!

Just don't make the mistake we made and pop Aspect of the Pack and outrun your leader! Other than that, as long as your tank is up to snuff, it's a pretty easy and fun run.

Whenever i got to the end I had used me big cds on last wave and when the lich king came up at a dead end i was like "Crap, I used my cds and now we have to fight the freaking lich king!" Then suddenly...BAM! GUNSHIP SAVES THE DAY! And also if you havent accepted the "Broken Front" quest he'll give it to you here

Commento di 114004

Since the whole Gunship-blows up the tunnel at the end bit has already been spoiled, I'll add more detail to it:
When you get past the last barrier and onto the platform of no escape, there is a 30 second period where Jaina and the Lich King talk a little more before the ship blasts the tunnel and the encounter effectively ends.
As such, if you are trying for the 6-minute escape achievement on heroic mode, you need to be through the last wall with at least 30 seconds running. The timer doesn't stop until the tunnel is blown.

As most everyone has said so far, this dungeon rocks.

Commento di 436067

wow, i fought him today. i think this is one of the best boss encounters in the game! its truly suspenseful and a little scary as he walks slowly and menacingly toward you, and summons hordes of undead. however, since im a hunter, i used aspect of the pack so we very far ahead of him. and the ending was epic! gunship FTW! i think blizzard really made a great boss encounter here :D

Commento di Moofle

If you're a priest and low on mana, just cast Shadowfiend on The Lich King, he wont attack it and he'll just keep walking :)

The Lich King catches you with your grubby paws on his sword. He isn't happy to see you.

Commento di 497398

I know it has been asked "what happens if you're too slow" but what I want to know is, what happens if you're too fast? During a run today, me and another dps were able to get past the first barrier before it was completely summoned, we just stood there and didn't move on as we didn't want to leave the group behind.

Anyone else manage to do this?

Commento di 319950

A couple of useful tips:

- If members of your party die, the wall of rocks that the ship creates disappears after some time, and you can go raise them before looting the chest
- Only survivors will get the achievement
- Tanking aboms too close to the ice wall - which comes naturally when Arthas gets close - sometimes causes them to become immune to damage
- It might be easier for some groups to have the tank focus on the aboms while dps go all out on the spellcasters
- The DPS required here is much higher than any other Heroic 5-man encounter. I'd say 3k/dpser is the minimum to have a chance.

Commento di 43216

Fun fact:
I found it pretty funny that the great, powerful lich king...

CAN BE DISARMED....!

(at least before and after the event.... I don't dare to try and disarm him during the chase... hehe)

Commento di 497916

The last boss of the 3rd sub-wing of the overall instance, Frozen Halls, a 5-man. In actuality, your original plan was to simply enter the Halls and find anything of value. This plan then swells to include stealing Frostmourne, and THEN to slaying the Lich King.

Of course, the latter does not come to be. Upon entering the halls, Sylvanaas (Horde), or Jaina (Alliance) casts a spell to unleash all the spirits in Frostmourne. Uther the Lightbringer is freed and has a discussion with the guide, revealing some rather interesting info, and telling them that it would be suicide to try and kill Arthas there. The conversation is interrupted as the Lich King strolls in and banishes Uther. He then proceeds to take the spell and summon his lieutenant's-in-life, Falric and Marwyn. Your guide rushes after him, and, of course, locks the door behind them.

You, the so-called heroes, must then fight off 8 waves of very strong trash and 2 bosses before you can enter the next hallway that leads to the Shadow Throne, the inner sanctum of the Lich King. You arrive just in time to see your guide get her butt kicked down to bout 200k and some health. Before she can die, though, she stuns him, and runs off down a secret passage with you, leaving the still at 20 million hp Arthas to shake off the stun and run after you.

This fight is not a real "fight". Rather, the Lich King creates frost barriers to cut you off, and while your guide works at them, you must defend her from waves of undead. After he has summoned the wave and the wall, he will activate Remorseless Winter, a crap ability that slows himself down 75%. Slows him down 75% OL' SCHOOL! Oh and DON'T let him catch you. Though trust me, its hilarious to see your buffed up, nigh-on impregnable tank get one-shotted in mid-jump and go flying down the Throne room stairs.

Some theroy crafting if you can kill this boss.
27,890,000Hp :(6000 Dps X 3 players)=
27,890,000Hp : 18000 Dps = 1549 seconds or 25 min

When he is fighting Jaina he has araund 15k hp.
15,000,000hp : 18000Dps= 833 seconds or 14 min overall.

Well you have 6-7 min (not rly sure) to escape https://www.wowhead.com/cata/achievement=4526 .
So theoretical its not posible to kill him.

But lets see if we get players who can each do 10k dps (Full Icecrown geared).

15,000,000hp : 30000Dps= 500 seconds or 8 min overall.
Stil imposible unles if you could escape last second and kill him on gunship part. (Well the trash will be mostly ignored till the boss is till close and its then zerged fast)

But if you get 4 dps and 1 healer it maybe could be posible.

15,000,000 hp : 40000Dps = 375 s or 6 min 30s overall

Commento di Shadowlyger

Be aware that while it is possible to attack the Lich King before the fight and before your faction leader stuns him, it IS possible to gain aggro if you hit him at melee range, in which case he will turn and obliterate you in one shot. Any other time, though, I believe he will simply ignore you no matter what you do to him.

Most I've ever done was at the end of the encounter, my group and I zerged him and managed to take .3 of his health off before the gunship opened fire and he despawned. Kinda despressing to see how little damage we can do to him.

To those wonder if you're too slow the Lich King will walk up to either Jaina or Sylvanas and continue to whack them. He will continue to do so until either you clear the mobs and your respective escort breaks down the barrier and you can run for it or he kills them. If he kills them he will wave his sword and still their soul. He will the proceed to blow everyone up. Suffice it to say if you fail to complete this in time you're dying, no way around it. It's a nice, though possibly annoying, change to the usual leniency blizzard has in their previous wave events where you get to live if your person dies.

And yes like said Ardent Defender will keep a pally up through the attack. No Immunity abilities will not work against him. Suffice it to say the damage either goes through the immunity or does SO much damage your immunity breaks and you die anyway...

Commento di 476166

You need some nice DPS to beat this. Believe it or not, several groups I've been can handle the gauntlet before it, but simply can't beat the Lich King dash on Heroic; there are many mobs, many diseases, and many casters ready to aggro on your healer if he does so much as SNEEZES (and it's prime weather to catch the cold, damn it!). Those casters gotta go down quick, and the abominations throwing up AoE poison on everyone doesn't help make that easier.

Warriors will find this VERY difficult to tank because they lack the large amount of AOE threat they will need to keep the mobs off of everybody. Everybody should stick to the same target as the tank to give them an easier time, and the tank should make sure to aggro as many of the mobs as possible so the healer doesn't get butchered.

Really though, fun instance and intense fight. You barely get any breathing room between phases, and I've been waiting for a Heroic as challenging as this one. From the way I understand the scenario, Arthas is going slow because Jaina's kiting him with that frost field, not because he wants to remind us of how godawfully slow he was in CoS. It's just really, REALLY unfortunate I've had to do this with people wearing blues... what's the gear requirement for this thing again? :/

Commento di 371504

Actually it looks like someone already did. Check the 3-D model, notice anything missing?

Edit: And yet he still does the same basic animations with the invisible sword in 3-D as normal, including cleaning the invisible sword, pointing it and even sticking it in the ground to adjust his gloves.

Commento di RandomFirefly

I'm not sure why no one else has mentioned this yet as it is done practically in every pug on my server, but during this encounter if you move your entire party to the little cliff just outisde of where he starts to follow you, you can let the Lich King walk on past.

You can then follow the Lich King throughout the whole ordeal, and every mob that is summoned will ignore Jaina/Sylvanas and attack the group, without ever having to worry about the Lich King catching up to you.

Sure it takes the challenge away, and I'm sure Blizzard will fix this eventually, but as for now it is a worthwhile exploit for easy loot.

Commento di 323389

1. ...Is just me, or has Arthas lost his helmet in this 3-D model?

2. Jaina: Ok, I %^&*ed him off, I can freeze him and keep him like this forever, but I can't move if I do that...So, I'm gonna put you guys in danger to be able to escape...Is that okay? Even if you don't want to, you have to. Because that's what you have to do to get those item level 232 epics at the end of this road. If you don't, no achievement, and no epics!

(starting event) ...Fine...But we'd rather kick his !"&...
xP Basically what she and we do :P (we alliance :P you hordies have Sylvanas :)).

Commento di 323389

You could have two tanks, one standing behind and taunting him to the start :P and the other standing at where you start event and taunt so he follows you there, and then let maybe Icecrown geared dps, maybe warlock or so and a tank and healer (:P it's crazy, I know) to continue and just save Jaina/Sylvanas. It'd be pretty crazy to try, but fun...Lich King gets Taunted through the first part of Halls of Reflection while we others "Escape" :P.

Commento di mixter

Notice he makes 4 walls

so to beat him you must break the 4th wall

Commento di Extrawesome

HAX ALERT :P

OK so you can actually fight behind him and it is ALOT easier.

What you do is, start the encounter with everyone but the tank, well into the room behind him and let him go out in front chasing Sylv.

The tank will be hanging out on a platform straight out the doorway that LK RP walks out of. You can see it on the map above... its the 1st jut of ice...

well anyways, the small packs will pop in front of the LK and the larger adds will pop behind him right on top of the party... just follow him up the path (not getting too close of course) after the 4th wave you can just run out and loot up. Too easy...

Commento di 520736

funny little tidbit.....my group tried to glitch this boss where you stay behind sylvanas and sit by the crane thing outside the throne room, we failed obivously

if sylvanas dies, lich king will hit the whole party for 1 MILLION UNMITIGATED DAMAGE EACH

EDIT: for some reason, one of your party members may not get hit with the Lich King's Fury of Frostmourne spell or w/e its called, it happened with me today, the tank didnt get with it and he rezzed us lol

Commento di 366037

Glitch it! Run outside of that room behind the rock thing on the left and wait for him to pass, then just follow him from a distance and kill his minions, perfect way to get the achievement: We're Not Retreating; We're Advancing in a Different Direction.

Commento di 161328

With patch 3.3.2, you cannot fight the adds from behind the Lich King any more. He has a new aura, Pain and Suffering, that ticks for 2000 shadow damage every half second or so to players further behind him. This aura also adds an animation of black rays radiating from him.

At the moment, the tooltip spells it "Pain and Suffereing"

Commento di GhostOfMulgore

thanks to my laziness i didn't bother to check if anyone's posted this yet, but it seems the lich king has had some bad abdominal pains lately due to all the adventurers escaping his grasp in here, because he's farting out shadow bubbles called Pain and Suffering, does some pretty major dmg to anyone behind him. so suffice it to say the days of fighting at his rear are over =(

Commento di Tempo

You can no longer do this. He gained shadow orbs that extend behind him and do massive DPS to your group.

Commento di 481143

~~You actually can still do this, it's possible to heal through. Very intense healing though~~.

Edit: Seems Blizzard has corrected this now too. The damage from being behind the Lich King no longer lets up once he gets far enough away. Effectively impossible to hang out behind him now.

Commento di Mcvay

As of 3.3.2 he has an aura that deals around 2,000 damage per second to anyone within say 100 yards of him to prevent people from standing on that little block of ice while he walks by, called Pain and Suffering.

However, you can still complete the event behind him, but instead of standing on that block of ice, you have to stand deep inside the building, as far back as you can, so you're along the west wall in a little hole, you can eventually work your way out of the building to "chase" after him, but the Pain and Suffering has a good 100 yard range or so. Have 4 people stand in the little room inside the building, and have one person run up, start the event, and run back to the rest of the group.

Oh really? We just did this last night (Feb. 10th). Stay in the room, let him walk past and be ready for some intense healing as he shoots the death rays back at everyone. I was healing this and did lose one of the dps but they released and ran back in and rejoined the fight. Arthas keeps walking and eventually goes out of range and you don't have to worry about the shadow damage anymore. After that the fight is trivial. Just stay in the room and let the all the mobs come to you. After the last wave is down run up to the ship and get your loot.

I have a feeling Blizz may put another fix on this though, as it's clearly not how they intend you to do the encounter.

Commento di 477939

is it possible to kill him if you have all ranged dps attacking him?
BEFORE you start the encounter

Commento di 476166

If you need to go this far to make this heroic trivial I really pity you and your groups.

If an instance *can* be made easier, it *will* be made easier. You're severely underestimating how far people will go for a smoother instance run.

I don't think it's really viable to hide behind him anymore, since having the Lich King far away is no longer an increase in this instance's survivability (it actually makes it MORE intense from my experiences with it, due to being so close to other people -- violating the sacred "personal space bubble" we're each entitled to...).

Commento di 128245

Pain and Suffering:: This spell does 2k shadow damage every .25 to .5 seconds to all members of your party behind Arthas. Damage can be partially resisted, and bubbles do protect you from the damage of this spell, although only temporarily.

Commento di 292020

this lich king NPC seems identical to 10-man hard mode NPC, 27mil hp

so if a 5man group manage to do enough dps to kill him (instead of escaping), or use something like martin's fury, will he drop loots identical to 10man heroic?

Commento di 206010

I think there is a theoretical possibility of defeating the Lich King before the encounter begins. A paladin's Judgement of Light could heal Jaina or Sylvanas for 100k hps per hit, and with other tools, like a priest's Pain Supression, a party could defeat Arthas right there.

Commento di Kliam

he is better to fight as Fire Mages i was a fire mage and fire ball casted over 50,000 damage well i had T10 (illidan's droped staff) you can beat him with 3 druids 8 mages 2 Deathknights and 15 warriors and also 6 priests just to beat him

Commento di 258919

A few tips

1) Fight as close to the walls as possible. Silencers are helpful to drag the casters closer, though not completely needed.

2) Make sure the tank is the closest to the Lich King, as this is the target the nonelite trash will attack first. Laying down a DnD/Consecration/Swipe spam will quickly grab aggro on this trash. Bear druids and warriors should use it every round as a rage pick-me-up, especially if they are tanking.

3) Speaking from experience, I can tell you that the final wave is a pain for tanks. While you will want to blow all of your cooldowns on this wave, watch Omen to make sure the tank is ready. Once the mobs start piling up, any death knights should use Army of the Dead. It's extremely helpful.

Other than that, it's mainly a DPS check for trash mobs. No DPSer should pull less than about 2.5k and no tank should pull less than 1.5k, ideally. Your total DPS here will make or break you. After the last wall breaks, kick back and watch the fireworks. You just beat what is arguably the most difficult WotLK 5-man.

Commento di 588530

Arthas is a character that was the main character in the warcraft 3 and Frozen Throne.
King Arthis. I am basically the main character in warcraft lore and i was treated like a random npc in MY expansion Wrath of the Lich King. I am disappointed in my own loot and i should have just used that spell that instantly kills all players in the beginning of the fight instead of waiting for Ashbringer man to jump out of the ice and kill me. Blizzard has also lowered my intelligence level significantly and I make very very unwise decisions. I send the Deathknight with Ashbringer to a death sentence to bring out a ugly old paladin. Am i dumb or not? I let all the Ashen Verdict storm my base while i sit here waiting. I dont send frostwyrms to attack unprotected horde and alliance bases. Am i dumb or what? I can teleport almost anywhere i wish and yet i do not teleport to assassinate Ashbringer man? or other threats like thrall and the human king? I am i dumb? I AM DEAD AND I DONT SLEEP YET I SPEND ENDLESS HOURS DOING NOTHING BUT WATCHING OVER MINDLESS DEAD.

Health was not a problem, just the time factor.

Soloed as a prot paladin with 353 item level. Died my first attempt (I had never done the fight before).

Second go was much smoother. Basically, just kept Inquisition up and spammed Hammer of the Righteous. The Lich King's aura will not instant-kill you, but it will deal significant damage if you stay in it for very long.

Tried soloing this today as a item level 361 fire mage, was not really doable at all. The entire wave bit has unkiteable and usually ranged mobs who hit like trucks AND also heal.

Lich King vs Sylvanas is unfair, that's like pitting a WWE wrestler against some goth teen girl.

After (probably hours) of trying, just was able to solo this today on my new-ish 85 Fury Warrior (ilevel 327). Just looked and my DPS w/o Berserk is ~1.6K or 2.1K with. HP is 108K w/o Commanding Shout or ~114K with. Only buffs were equipped and being well-fed.

Really literally everything had to go perfectly. Any slams are for sure, a welcomed freebie but presuming you won't get them you simply have to hit everything as hard as you can as fast as you can. Once you get to each wall if possible (or even before), the ghouls will leap and automatically target you it seems. Those were cleaved and victory rushed down. For the rest of the bigger mobs, it would tend to be the usual Collosus Smash, Bloodthirst, etc. Save retaliation for halfway through the fourth wall's mobs. Even then I downed the last lanky tall ghoul (not the tiny ones) after Arthas was far past me and nearly upon Jaina. At first I was thinking I had some darned luck as she escaped with 1 HP but I think the encounter does that for either faction's hero (Youtubed it). Had to even save myself via regeneration on some of the attempts as Arthas' AoE wears you down fast.

Had me shaking and totally loving every second of getting my butt kicked. What a rush! Video to come soon.
