Judging by the battered, unarmed, and bare-headed model, I'd say this is the version of the Lich King that players fight in the final portion of the encounter.

Kommentar von Boarman

Arthas 'Weapon-rack' Menethil. It's his middle name.

Kommentar von Boarman

If you go to the centre of Dalaran, there are some statues on a fountain in which within them there's a 'usable' memorial sign, which if you right-click on will show you the cinematic of Arthas's death.

Kommentar von 197806

Anyone else disappointed with the model for the burnt Bolvar? Looks like some unfinished animator's work hurrily throw in to make the cinematic...

Kommentar von Darthdavo

What i don't understand... Is why Tirion gets a statue in Dalaran of himself... when he did bugger all!

Shouldn't WE be the one in the statue's place?

Kommentar von Arthredemis

Don't look so smug! I know what you're thinking, but Icecrown Citidal was merely a set back. Did you honestly believe I would die so easily? Hahahaha... Oh no, no, no, he was merely an instrument, a stepping stone to a much larger plan! It has all led to this...and this time, you will not interfere!

All that power and yet only 144g in his pockets.

How much <Ashen Verdict> reputation is he awarding?

His kill awards 1500 Reputation for <Ashen Verdict>

EDIT: Added reputation awarded, thanks to derDem

Uh ... Ah ...

Saronite Bombs!

Is the only way to get rid of the disease in p1 is to let it tick for 15 seconds? If it's dispelled, it loses a stack and jumps (it never goes below 1 stack so it can't be removed by dispelling?). If it kills the target, it gains a stack and jumps. In theory, you could get an out of control disease if it reaches too many stacks and ends up killing the vrykul mobs before the 15 second duration goes away. Am I understanding this correctly? Does the jump mechanic have a max radius?

Kommentar von 481132

The Lich King has actually 103M hp in 25-man Hardmode which will make him even more challenging.

Kommentar von Darthdavo

At long last. He's de-frosted his ass from the Frozen Throne!

Kommentar von doomdoom

One emblem of frost for defeating the largest threat to azeroth at this moment! ONE!
Yet we kill the Icewatcher, someone who has done nothing wrong and is a simple loot vendor and get two?
I feel sorry for Arthas, when him and his raiding buddies go out Toravon ninjas all the Emblems. :O

Kommentar von 414927

Ashen Verdict: "oh you killed the Lich king, good for you! here is 250 rep.... AND NO FOR THE LAST TIME YOU CANNOT WEAR THE EXALTED RING YET SO STOP NAGGING"

Then the guy from Ashen Verdict points at some hobo near the enterance and says "you see that hobo over there that keeps killing the same worthless skeleton over and over again? yeah we love this guy" and shouts "come here hobo.... here take the exalted ring, keep up the good work"

Quotes for this long fight goes as follows:

Intro

The Lich King yells: So...the Light's vaunted justice has finally arrived. Shall I lay down Frostmourne and throw myself at your mercy, Fordring?
Highlord Tirion Fordring yells: We will grant you a swift death, Arthas. More than can be said for the thousands you've tortured and slain.
The Lich King yells: You will learn of that first hand. When my work is complete, you will beg for mercy -- and I will deny you. Your anguished cries will be testament to my unbridled power.
Highlord Tirion Fordring yells: So be it. Champions, attack!

The Lich King freezes Highlord Tirion Fordring in a block of ice.

The Lich King yells: I'll keep you alive to witness the end, Fordring. I would not want the Light's greatest champion to miss seeing this wretched world remade in my image.

Aggro (Personally, I've never heard of this one, he tends to attack instantly after the dialogue)
Come then champions, feed me your rage!

Casting Remorseless Winter
I will freeze you from within until all that remains is an icy husk!

Casting Quake
Watch as the world around you collapses!

Summon Val'kyr
Val'kyr, your master calls!

Casting Harvest Soul
Frostmourne hungers...

Player escapes Frostmourne
Argh... Frostmourne, obey me!

Player is devoured by Frostmourne
Frostmourne feeds on the soul of your fallen ally!

Fury of Frostmourne ("You win" call actually)
Apocalypse!
Bow down before your lord and master!

Killing a player
Hope wanes!
The end has come!

Berserk
Face now your tragic end!

Outro

The Lich King casts Fury of Frostmourne, killing all players at once.

The Lich King yells: No question remains unanswered. No doubts linger. You are Azeroth's greatest champions! You overcame every challenge I laid before you. My mightiest servants have fallen before your relentless onslaught, your unbridled fury... Is it truly righteousness that drives you? I wonder.
The Lich King yells: You trained them well, Fordring. You delivered the greatest fighting force this world has ever known... right into my hands -- exactly as I intended. You shall be rewarded for your unwitting sacrifice.

The Lich King begins to cast a resurrection spell.

The Lich King yells: Watch now as I raise them from the dead to become masters of the Scourge. They will shroud this world in chaos and destruction. Azeroth's fall will come at their hands -- and you will be the first to die.

The Lich King laughs.

The Lich King yells: I delight in the irony.
Highlord Tirion Fordring yells: LIGHT, GRANT ME ONE FINAL BLESSING. GIVE ME THE STRENGTH... TO SHATTER THESE BONDS!

Light smites the ice block, freeing Tirion.
Tirion jumps and strikes Frostmourne with the Ashbringer, shattering it.

The Lich King yells: Impossible...
Highlord Tirion Fordring yells: No more, Arthas! No more lives will be consumed by your hatred!

The souls trapped inside Frostmourne escape and swirl around the Lich King, lifting him in the air.
The ghost of Terenas Menethil II appears.

Terenas Menethil II yells: Free at last! It is over, my son. This is the moment of reckoning.

Terenas' ghost begins to cast a resurrection spell.

Terenas Menethil II yells: Rise up, champions of the Light!

Terenas resurrects all players.
The raid moves in to finish the Lich King.

The Lich King yells: Now I stand, the lion before the lambs... and they do not fear.
The Lich King yells: They cannot fear.

As the Lich King's HP reaches 0, the swirling maelstrom of souls stops and the Lich King falls to the ground, losing the Helm of Domination.
Arthas tries to reach for it but loses what little strength he has and collapses.

Kommentar von 371289

When he is killed for the first time on a realm a fountain appears in the middle of Dalaran.
You can use it to watch and watch again the Lich King death cinematic.

Anyway, you will be able to find the cinematic also in your World of Warcraft installation folders, following this path:

/World of Warcraft/Data/enGB/Interface/Cinematics/WOW_FotLK_1024.avi

and, the same cinematic, but with a lower quality

10 man ICC, Bolvich Forkingon

Tirion: Finally, the Lich King has fallen. However, a new one must take his place. Who shall wear the Helm of Domination?

Tirion Greeds 74 so he can vendor it for 40g
Saurfang passes, saying he doesn't need a helm that will lower his stats.
Varian greeds 37
Darion Morgraine needs 64
Jaina Proudmoore greeds 21
Sylvannas greeds 43
Muradin needs 12
Thrall passes
The Argent Champion, Hogger passes

Darion: Awesome, I can really use that helm as a-

-Bolvar returns from being afk-
Bolvar Fordragon needs 86

-Bolvar Fordragon recieves the Helm of Domination-

Kommentar von 539046

Have you ever counted the skulls on Arthas/Lich Kings's armor?

Kommentar von 501371

It really is too bad he does not drop his helmet, and it would have to be like, you equip it, and it automatically matches to your class and spec, that would be epicawesome.

Kommentar von Quilan

I would laugh if the helmet rolled off and you saw Illidan

phase 2 start when helm rolled off: "Black Temple was mearly a setback."

dieing line: "I... guess you were... prepared."

Kommentar von 231645

I can see it now in the future after the defeat;

Arthas: "Don't look so smug! I know what you're thinking, but Icecrown Citadel was merely a setback..."

WTB Scripts :(

Kommentar von 189687

The end of this fight is the most epic I have ever seen done by Blizzard and I've been raiding since AQ40 came out. I decided not to spoil the last 10% in watching a video and settled for watching the cinematic to hold me over until I killed him myself, and having just done so; All I can say is wow epic ending.

Kommentar von IbFeeshin

Pft, strategy guides, you guys are idiots.
*Pushes The Lich King*
The Lich King takes 61,009,376 fall damage.
The Lich King dies.
*Loots* Do I win an internet yet?

Kommentar von 516981

Yo. Got this #$%^& down a while ago. Figured I could contribute with a great tip for handling Soul Reaper in phase 2.

Using Safeguard, a buff given from a Protection Warrior's ability Intervene, rendered tank swapping unnecessary.

The -30% damage taken removes a great deal of the spike damage and somewhat neutralizes the bonus damage the Lich King gets afterwards. As the Protection Warrior also soaks the next melee-attack, you further increase the MT's chances of survival. Also worth knowing is that Soul Reaper and Intervene both are on 30 sec cooldown.

GL and have fun! :)

The cutsce of the lich kings death:
(Interesting music starts to play)
(An image of Arthas' father appears and kneels before Arthas' dieing corpse)
(Arthas grabs the spectral shirt of his ghost of a father)
Arthas: Father. Is it... Over?
Father: At long last. No king rules forever my son
Arthas: I see... Only darkness before... me
(His hand slaps the ground in a momment of death)
Father: Without it's master's command the restless scourge will become an even greater threat to this world. Control must be maintained. There must always be (thunder & lightning) a Lich king
(Arthas' father dissappears.)
(Horns begin to play as highlord Tirion Fording picks up the crown)
Tirion: The weight... of such a burden. It must be mine, for there is no other to...
?: TIRION! you hold a grim destiny in your hands brother. But it is not your own.
(Tirion takes a look at a flaming image of Bolvar Fodragon)
Tirion: Bolvar!
Tirion: By all that is holy...
Bolvar: The Dragon's flame... sealed my fait. The world of the living can no longer comfort me.
Bolvar: Place the crown upon my head Tirion, forever more i will be the jailor of the damned.
Tirion: No i cannot...
Bolvar: DO IT TIRION. And tell them only that the lich king is dead, if they are to live without the tyranny of fear they must not know what was done here today.
Tirion: You will not be forgotton old friend
Bolvar: I MUST be forgotton tirion.
(He places the crown upon his head, becoming the new lich king)
Now leave this place... and NEVER RETURN.

PS: why do you find it necessary to downrate this? Nobody else has posted it yet.

Kommentar von Zalafina

Does anyone have the /script command where Arthas' father shouts, "Rise up, champions of the light!" It's freaking EPIC =)

Kommentar von Arlond345

Anyone else notice in the cienimatic where Arthas dies Tiron kind goes Golem (From LotR) over the helmet? Like if it wasn't the burnt corpse of the Alliance champion taking it from him he would have happily put it on? I think someone was having a power trip

Kommentar von 243007

Would be really sweet if someone could post the /script lines to each of his speech. Not really necessary to write the text aswell, those lines would be highly appreciated thought.

Kommentar von 523792

Does anyone know, is the line "I see only darkness before me" meant to be taken as "I see" in response to "no king rules forever, my son" followed by "Only darkness before me" or is it meant it that he sees nothing but darkness ahead of him?
I assume it is the latter but I can see it going either way.

Kommentar von Omino

Arthas: "Father... is it... over?"
Terenas: "Don't worry my son... the raid will reset next week."

According to this Wowhead map of ICC, after The Frozen Throne there is another floor called "Frostmourne". Is it actually in-game, and if it is what exactly is there (I know it's kinda obvious from the name :D but i want a screenshot or something). Thanks in advance!

The idea of the Lich King actually dying is kind of shocking dont you think, i mean i lived out the entire Frozen Throne expansion on Warcraft and that was epic coz the they are like GOD...

Kommentar von 318560

The Lich King's helm might have Ner'zhul in it considering that he was trapped in the suit of armor before Arthas shattered the frozen throne and put it on, so Bolvar prolly is gonna get corrupted... again.

Kommentar von 545254

Wow wouldn`t it be cool if there was a melee trinket called
"Wrath Of The Lich King" ?
Chance On Hit To Release The Wrath Of The Lich King

Like Deathbringer`s Will

Kommentar von 381360

I feel sorta bad for killing arthas the way we did. i mean first of all is all this really arthas' fault? once he took up frostmourne he wasn't arthas anymore he was soulless and working for Ner'zhul and it was ner'zhul who drove him to be the lich king and even though he dominated the mind of the lich king he was soulless and evil. Then once frostmourne is shattered he gets his soul back, so he suddenly becomes prince arthas againand hes floating up in the air completely helpless and we just kill him as hes floating, epic as it is i just feel sorta bad cuz none of this was really arthas' fault.

Kommentar von 347360

Stupid Tirion...
trinketed the Scatter Shot and had to eat the trap.
L2 Trinket!

Kommentar von Spectre27

Why does he only give 1,500 rep? Because the quest from Darion to kill him (in the Shadowmourne chain) gives 300,000 reputation with the Ashen Verdict.

Kommentar von 521273

Just wanted to take this opportunity to QQ about the way they changed the weapons from LK 10 to LK 25. The only wep a hance sham can use on LK 10 says 'main hand' on it. QQ moar. what was wrong with a 1h axe? sigh. i hate you too, blizz.

Kommentar von dexkiller

Raging Spirit - Summons 1 Raging Spirit. Used 3 times during each transition phase.

It's used 3 times during the 70% transition (phase 1.50), and 4 times at the 40% transition (phase 2.50)

Kommentar von Kyron

I wonder why the Vanquisher's Mark of Santification (DK, Druid, Mage, Rogue) is not listed under "Normal 10 Drops"... is that correct? or just an error?... and if it's not an error, why then? :S

Kommentar von faurorca

no tokens doesn't drop from the normal 10 man although they drop from 10 man bosses on hc - saurfang, the lich king , sindragosa, the professor and the blood queen

Kommentar von 347588

Can someone post the sound file for this line "Now I stand, the Lion Before the lambs. They Do not Fear."
"They cannot Fear."

Kommentar von 545062

Has anybody killed this guy without the 5% buff? If not, then does that make The Lich King the longest boss it took to be killed without a buff?

EDIT: I mean 25 man heroic of course

Kommentar von 603261

Blizzard shall add a new ending when you kill LK in 10 or 25 normal .. Thank you for the participation, now try out our new version of LK in HC mode :D its damn easy .. Almost every raiding serious guild had killed him alteast once

Kommentar von 252897

Just a note for those wondering about drops, he CAN drop two of the same item. Just got double halion on our latest 10man kill : >

Kommentar von 502552

HAX

In the video you see him losing the blue color in his eyes and then you see his father closing them.

BUT if you look at his corpse they are open and glowing blue :O

Kommentar von 300492

Some players join the group that has downed Lich King already but themselves are not exalted with Ahsen Verdict yet. For such players, reputation of 1500 is very welcome.

Kommentar von Tallandra

The Lich King has less gold than The Lurker Below.

Kommentar von 588530

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.

Has anyone ever thought of that the Helm of Domination looks very much like The Witch King's helm in LotR 3?
Also, Lich King, Witch King.
Not much difference, eh?
