Kommentar von McPhil

Ich hab eine Frage: Ich versuche Unbesiegbar zu bekommen.
Ich weiß dass ich dafür in Heroisch 25 Spieler spielen muss.
Ein Freund meinte, wenn man aber einmal stirbt, dann würde man Unbesiegbar nicht bekommen können.
Stimmt das? Ab und an bin ich durch Dummheit wo runtergefallen oder im Gas gestorben.

Kommentar von Morrowlol

Patch 3.3 will present Icecrown Citadel, an expansive raid similar to the length of Ulduar.

The raid will feature around 12 raid encounters including the fight against Lich King himself at the summit of the instance atop the Frozen Throne.

Bosses Include

Lord Marrowgar
Lady Deathwhisper
Alliance/Horde Gunship Battle
Deathbringer Saurfang ..*gulp*
Rotface
Festergut
Professor Putricide
Blood Prince Council
Blood-Queen Lana'thel
Valithiria Dreamwalker
Sindragosa
The Lich King

Similar to the Crusaders Coliseum, the raid will feature:
10 man normal/10 man heroic
25 man normal/25 man heroic

Blizzard confirmed at Blizzcon that the instance would reuse the waypoint teleport system introduced in Ulduar and that players would interact with Tirion Fordring and the Argent Crusade/Ebon Blade forces aswell as your own faction leaders.

It is currently unclear whether there will be another raid added between the release of Icecrown Citadel and Cataclysm, but with the defeat of the Lich King all loose ends and stories within the WotLK expansion should come to a close.

Kommentar von ArgentSun

Here is a list of the bosses until we get everything sorted out in the article:

The Lower Spire

The Crimson Hall

Blood Prince Council (Keleseth, Taldaram and Valanar)
Queen Lana'thel

The Plagueworks

The Frostwing Hall

Valithiria Dreamwalker
Sindragosa

The Frozen Throne

The Lich King

Lich King's Chief Medical Officer: He's dead, Tirion...

Tirion Fordring: /dramaticheadturn

Kommentar von 422714

The raid doesnt have 14 bosses it has 12. And the faction you help is the Ashen Verdict which is the combination of The Argent Crusade and The Knights of the Ebon Blade. Its gonna be like the new Black Temple and will be release before Cataclysm.

Kommentar von 282300

From many ptr videos, ICC will feature many "Mini Bosses" along with the standard raid bosses.

Disclaimer: No rams were hurt during the making of this instance.

i saw on maps a floor called frostmourne.what is that actualy?i saw that is a way to reach there so i think that we will use the teleport system of ulduar.can somebody tell me more about frostmourne hall?

Kommentar von 242565

is there going to be any kind of Bolvar encounter, or, maybe, he'll be a part of other encounter?

Item level loot from Icecrown:

10 man normal: 251
10 man heroic/ 25 man normal: 264
25man heroic: 277

Kommentar von 436187

if your really going to be frank about "how many" bosses there are, there are actually 14, but 3 of them are in the same encounter.

Kommentar von 133487

There is a teleportation-system much like the one in Ulduar, except this one has a super-cool iceblocking animation, when you use it.
The bosses drop 2 each in 10man normal (don't know for others yet).

If anyone hasn't noticed Icecrown Citadel changed in 3.3,it became fatter and taller,just compare old screenshots with the new ones and you'll see the differences

Kommentar von 436033

Icecrown Citadel has arrived!

I haven't done this, except for the first room. But what I do know about that first room is be prepared for the unexpected. By unexpected I mean giant skeleton's coming outof nowhere! They are called Deathbound Wards. About 1,600k health on normal if I'm not mistaking. They casts disrupting roar every now and then, which stops your casting and prevents you from casting anything in that school for a few seconds. I'm not sure how much of the instance these guys are in, but if you hear a yell "I am... awakened!" or "The masters Sanctum has been desturbed!" or something to that affect, get ready for them. Other then that, the first room before Lord Marrowgar is generally easy. The fights include creatured called "The Damned", "Servents of the Throne", and some nerbuian i forge the name of ( :D ). The Servents use a spell that shoots ice spikes out of te floor in front of them (much like the Gormok the Treeshaper fight in Nexus) and the nerubians use the Nerubian signiture Crypt Scarabs. This first room also has a repair, the Ashden Verdict vendors (including Quartermaster) and a Dalaran port. Oh by the way, Tirion and Arthas yell at eachother, along with BOLOVAR FORDRAGON! Who remembers him dieing at the Wrath Gate? Well Arthas says "My new champion has resisted for so long, but soon he shall be mine" (or something like that) then Bolovar yells "NEVER! I WILL NEVER SERVE YOU!".

Thats aboutit for first room, after that I have no idea. But some other stuff of ICC...

Bosses...

~Storming the Citadel
-Lord Marrowgar (Commander of Scourge forces)
-Lady Deathwhisper (Leader of the Cult of the Damned)
-Gunship Battle (An epic battle between the Skybreaker (Alliance) and Ogrim's Hammer (Horde)
-Deathbringer Saurfang (He died at Wrathgate along with Fordragon, but he wasn't so lucky...)

~The Crimson Halls
-The San'Lyn; Kelesth, Thalanar, Valanar (Blood Prince Council)
-Blood Queen Lana'thel (Queen of San'Lyn)

~Plagueworks
-Rotface (Abomination, weird looking)
-Festergut (Abomination, weird looking, same model as rotface)
-Proffesor Putricide (Proffesor, trying to create plague capable of obliterating all life on Azeroth)

~Frostwing Halls
-Valthiria Dreamwalker (Kidnapped from Green Dragonflight, beeing experimented on)
-Sindragosa (Queen of Frostbrood)

~Frozen Throne
-The Lich King (You better know who this is)

Those are the bosses, now for the bad news...

Those of you who are all, YEAH LETS GO KILL LICH KING!, he isn't here yet. Blizzard is releasing ICC wing by wing. At the moment only Storming the Citadel is out. By march 2010 We will be able to kill the Lich King, so more waiting :'(

Thats about it. The last thing I have to say is that the Lich King DOES die, he doesn't teleport off at 1% health. Which I'm happy about :)

Hey

What is the actually the DPS requirement for this raid (or it's parts)?

Kommentar von silverd

There's currently a problem with the ICC area and the summoning stone due to the area's phasing. Members who are in different phases won't see each other or the portal outside.

Kommentar von 299053

There is a phasing problem at the Icecrown Citadel summoning stone at the moment because not every player have completed the questchain that takes place below the Citadel itself.

The first quest in the chain:

Exploit an Opening (alliance)
Opportunity (horde)

This quest is given from Thassarian on the Skybreaker for alliance and Koltira Deathweaver on Orgrim's Hammer for horde once the player have completed the questchain to take over The Shadow Vault (alliance) The Shadow Vault (horde) in the favor of the Knights of the Ebon Blade, a questchain wich in turn starts with It's All Fun and Games (alliance) It's All Fun and Games (horde). Once the Shadow Vault is in the possesion of the Ebon Blade, you will be able to do 1 of the 2 quests mentioned above, depending on your faction.

Completing the questchain up to Return to the Surface (alliance) or Return to the Surface (horde). (although, there is a possibility the phasing issue will be gone once you've completed the second quest in the chain, Securing the Perimeter, or Establishing Superiority. But you'll miss some good lore if you skip the rest of the chain, should the phasing issue be gone at this point.)

The quest you mention, and which many players belive cause the problem is Battle Before the Citadel, but this quest will only phase you at the courtyard, and the phasing will only take place if you have the quest in your log, so abandoning it or completing it will remove the phasing.

As you know by now, it's a rather complex procedure to remove the phasing issue at the summoning stone if you've not already done most of the quests in Icecrown.

I hope this clarifies.

Kommentar von 33195

Been brutally maimed over, over, and over again by means of Deathbringer Saurfang? Have no fear, the doctor is here!

First, I'd recommend using a Rib Spreader first in order to avoid Bloodfall Trauma before starting the rather difficult Lungbreaking and Heartpiercing surgery. Saurfang is infamously noted to crush the chest in a whirling rage, resulting in both heart and lung disfunction. Hopefully you performed the surgery flawlessly, unless you want to give your subject some Last Words before failing to do any of the previously stated, thus inducing Rigormortis and the subject seeing the Dying Light, resulting in the location of a far away, Distant Land.

Kommentar von 202062

When teleporting into upper spire, DO NOT walk forward immediately. The blue steam will isnta-gib you. Pretend you're playing Mario and wait for each smoke to clear before stepping forward to wait for the next. If you have a rogue, have them look at the left hand wall, just past the first smoke emitters and there's an "inconspicuous switch" they can trip to turn off the smoke machines. Move forward at your leisure.

Kommentar von Xdoom

I would like to comment that if you don't have rogue to see those traps that trigger Deathbound Ward in Icecrown Citadel, and no warlock to use the Eye of Kilrogg, you can use Crashin' Thrashin' Racer Controller. I used it and i was able to trigger the traps far in advance.

i believe in icecrown citadel the lich king fight will be like the ulduar one, you have a faction leader that wants to defeat the lich king to choose from,Darion,Saurfang,Muradin if not those last 2 then Jaina and Sylvanas.
this is just my guess.

The song "Lament of the Highbourne" plays as background music in The Crimson Hall in Icecrown Citadel - appropriate, with the area being populated by San'layn (ex-Highbourne 'vampires').

Kommentar von 322706

I have a question regaurding raid progression that I can't seem to find an answer to anywhere... perhaps someone can answer it here for me.

When ICC was released, there were blue posts stating that each individual had to progress through the raid in order. IE you had to complete the Lower Spire before moving on to the Plagueworks, and so on...

What I'm confused about is whether or not this has to be done each week, or only once. For instance, I've finished the Lower Spire and have the Achievement, but next week do I have to do it again before proceeding to Plagueworks, or can I just join a group that happens to already be there? I have to pug everything because my constantly changing schedule prevents me from being in a solid raiding guild.

Along with this, I have a similar question....

Let's say this week I go through Lower Spire with one group, and we quit for the night.... in the same week, am I able to join up with another group for the Plaqueworks as long as I didn't move in to it with the first group?

Any help with this would be great.... I'd love to kill the Lich King eventually, but if I can't do the wings with different groups, I dont think that will be a possibility for me...

Thanks!

Kommentar von 194778

if your on the crushridge server you have to have the achievement to even get in with a group....

Kommentar von PotatoKing

I realy don't quite get why these bosses are here, in ICC. I was really expecting some lore wise (although the Deathbringer/Saurfang the Younger was okay) characters like Kel'thuzad and Anub'arak again or something or Falric and Marwyn (In the raid instead of the 5-man). Those guys were more awsome and had more lore than the new characters in Icecrown Citadel... I mean ICC is too epic and had lots of lore on it. I know blood-queen lana'thel is the queen of the san'layn but there was nothing much about the san'layn, there are not too many of them and does not have that MUCH lore on them. Lady Deathwhisper is one of the co-leaders of the cult of the damned but that's it. Sindragosa is the consort of Malygos and probably the most strongest of the frostwyrms (unless LK somehow finds out how to raise Malygos as a frostwyrm! :O ) but that's probably it. Was really expecting more in Icecrown Citadel than this.

My question is similar to kalizt's.

For instance, I've finished the Lower Spire and have the Achievement, but next week do I have to do it again before proceeding to Plagueworks, or can I just join a group that happens to already be there? I have to pug everything because my constantly changing schedule prevents me from being in a solid raiding guild.

I've cleared 1st wing like 3 times already. And killed Festergut once. My question is, supposing im Raid Leader, everytime ICC resets i need to do all 1st wing bosses again or can i jump to 2nd wing directly, since i cleared 1st wing before (and have the achiev)?

Kommentar von Rankkor

to answer your question......

yes, you have to clear the place out every time, this raid works like any other raid, after the reset, all trash and bosses reset, and you must clear it from the start again.

progresion order is like this:

Enter the lower spire, kill trash, kill marrowgar, kill more trash, kill deathwisper.

Enter the elevator, kill more trash, do the gunship battle, and kill Deathbringer.

after this point, you can choose wich wing you wish to clear first, the choises being Plageworks (with festergut, rotface and putricide) or Crimson halls (blood-princes, and blood queen) or Frostwing halls (sindragosa, Dreamwalker)

these 3 can be cleared in any order, and once all 3 are cleared, you can go to the frozen throne and kill the lich king.

now, as you clear each wing, you get access to teleporters (as in if you wiped on the plageworks, when all the raid enters the instance again you don't have to walk all the way up there, just take the teleporter and get to the plageworks at once)

and this works for all wings on this site, however, these teleporters just like the bosses and trash, reset every tuesday.

this is the same mechanism for ALL raids that have multiple bosses, to prevent people from zoning in, killing the last boss and leaving.

in naxxramas you had to clear each wing (construct plage military and spider) before unlocking saph's wing and then only then you can enter kel'tuzad's room, and this must be done every time you go to naxx regardless of how many times u've cleared the 4 wings in the past (they nerfed it slightly, you can access saph's wing without clearing the other 4, but you still need to clear the 4 wings to kill kel'tuzad)

Likewise in ulduar you must clear the siege of ulduar, then the antechamber, then the keeper's ward, and then yogg's prison.

it would be really game-breaking that after clearing all wings of ICC; from that point foward you can just zone in and kill the lich king skipping all other bosses and trash.

if something like that was posible, then nobody would bother to kill the lower bosses and jump ahead to the last boss, thus breaking the experience of clearing the zone.

((of course, that being said, in a future expantion, older raids get nerfed, allowing the players to skip bosses if you want to, on SSC you can go straight at vashj, in TK you can go straight at kael'thas, so maybe in a couple of expantions into the future, players will be able to skip some wings of this place, just as it can be done in older raids))

Kommentar von Rankkor

any one else think there will be another raid since we dont know when cata is coming out?

blizzard has already stated that no more raids will be released till cataclysm.

Do take into consideration that from the release of Naxx40 (back on vanilla) to the release of the new expac Burning crusade, more than 6 months and a half passed.

and from the release of the Sunwell in TBC to the release of WOTLK more than 7-8 months passed.

we don't know how long will it be till the release of cataclysm, we DO know that it's on 2010 (Blizzard's CEO Mike Morhaime has stated that they intend to release the expansion sometime in 2010)

we can expect a waiting time of min 6 months or max 9 months till cataclysm hits the stores.

mastering ICC25 heroic will take more than that for the average guids, so there will be plenty of stuff to do in the meantime.

I do believe that more patches could be released from here to cataclysm, to patch gradually the changes to azeroth, but as far as raids and instances goes, Frozen halls, and ICC are the pinnacle of 5man and 10/25 man content in this expantion.

Edit: well I'll be damned, it seems blizzard loves to go back on their word, first they promise every expac will have a hero class only to have cataclysm have none, then they swear that ICC will be the pinnacle of raiding in WOTLK, and it seems that was a lie too.

Patch 3.3.5 is confirmed to host a new raid called the Rubi sanctum, a place in the same style as the obsidian sanctum where we face against the twillight dragonflight.

so yhea........ this will not be the last raid in WOTLK.

The only bosses to have a background lore before their introduction here were Sindragosa, Blood-Prince Council, Blood-Queen Lana'thel, and Valithria Dreamwalker. Lore-wise, Tirion's champions attempt to fight the Lich King, but are all killed by a single attack. Tirion saves them, and finishes him off.

------> Item levels in level 80 raids as of 3.3.3 <------

Naxx 10: 200 (213 for some bosses)

Naxx 25: 213 (226 for some bosses)

The Obsidian Sanctum 10 (no drakes up): 200
The Obsidian Sanctum 10 (one drake up): 200 and one additional 200 item
The Obsidian Sanctum 10 (two drakes up): 200, one additional 200 item and one additional 213 item
The Obsidian Sanctum 10 (three drakes up): same loot as with two drakes up, and a mount and a title

The Obsidian Sanctum 25 (no drakes up): 213
The Obsidian Sanctum 25 (no drakes up): 213 and one additional 213 item
The Obsidian Sanctum 25 (two drakes up): 213, one additional 213 item and one additional 226 item
The Obsidian Sanctum 25 (three drakes up): same loot as with two drakes up, and a mount and a title

The Eye of Eternity 10: 213

The Eye of Eternity 25: 226

Ulduar 10: 219
Ulduar 10 (hardmodes): 232

Ulduar 25: 226
Ulduar 25 (hardmodes): 239

Onyxia's Lair 10: 232 (class restricted helmets)
Onyxia's Lair 25: 245 (class restricted helmets)
*note* the Helmets dropped by Onyxia are re-colored Tier 2 helmets.

Trial of the Crusader 10: 232
ToCr 10 (heroic): 245 (with a tribute run item level of 258)

ToCr 25: 245
ToCr 25 (heroic): 258 (with a tribute run item level of 272)

and the 5-man instance Trial of the Champion: 200
Heroic Trial of the Champion: 219

And as of 3.3:
Forge of Souls, Pit of Saron, and Halls of Reflection on NORMAL mode: 219
Forge of Souls, Pit of Saron, and Halls of Reflection on HEROIC mode: 232

The three above instances are unlocked by doing this quest.

Icecrown Citadel 10: 251 (258 for Lich King loot)
Icecrown Citadel 10 (Heroic): 264 (271 for Lich King loot)

Icecrown Citadel 25: 264 (271 for Lich King loot)
Icecrown Citadel 25 (Heroic): 277 (284 for Lich King loot)

And in 3.3.5 (?), 'The Ruby Sanctum' will be released, and Blizzard has stated that it will be a lot like The Obsidian Sanctum, with the difficulty of Icecrown Citadel, so I'm guessing:
The Ruby Sanctum 10: 251

The Ruby Sanctum 25: 264

Sorry for the wall of text :|

Kommentar von 689829

Here's some predictions on how hard the bosses will be in Cataclysm. In general, it's likely going to be like Sunwell Plateau is now; significantly less difficult than before, but many fights will have mechanics that can wipe you.

-Lord Marrowgar: Raids that know how to get people down from the spikes and don't stand in the flames should be fine.

-Lady Deathwhisper: This battle will most likely get much easier, much like M'uru did, since the players are able to kill the adds more quickly. However, they may need to know which ones they need to kill, and should avoid Death and Decay (which, unlike M'uru's Darkness, doesn't spawn in a fixed area)

-Gunship Battle: The lootship will most likely still be the lootship, but considering that the cannons aren't affected by people's stats, they won't have as much of an advantage.

-Deathbringer Saurfang:Marks of the Fallen Champion will be significantly easier to heal through, although players will need to avoid recklessly AOEing the Blood Beasts.

-Festergut: As a DPS race, this will be much easier as long as the tanks don't fall prey to Gastric Explosion.

-Rotface: Players will need to kite the Unstable Oozes and not stand in the slime, but if they exercise common sense, they should easily defeat him.

-Professor Putricide: Players will most likely still need to avoid Malleable Goo and Poison Gas bombs, and may need to use the "abomination" (technically called a flesh titan) here.

-Blood Prince Council: It's likely that more than a few PUGs won't know to switch targets in this phase or how to tank Keleseth, and Empowered Shock Vortex will likely still be quite damaging

-Blood Queen: The bites will still be an issue, more for avoiding the mind control than maximizing damage. The raid will likely have the DPS to get through without a specific bite order.

-Valithria Dreamwalker: The Suppressors and Blazing Skeletons will still present problems, as will the unique nature of the fight, but if players give priority to them and use the dream portals, this fight will be much easier.

-Sindragosa: The Frost Tombs will likely be the main raid killers for those who can't spread out, particularly if the healers get frozen. The debuffs are more manageable, but it's somewhat unlikely that people could zerg through Phase 3 without resetting their stacks.

-The Lich King: It's possible that people could kill the Horrors in Phase 1 without Necrotic Plague, but they will need to deal with it appropriately, as no one will be able to survive more than two stacks. The Raging Spirits will likely be less powerful, but the Ice Spheres can still throw people off the platform. The Valkyrs will likely still be deadly for the same reason in Phase 2 if the raid isn't paying attention, and if people don't move out of Defile, they will likely still wipe the raid. Phase 2.5 and 3 won't be as difficult, and raids that get this far will likely get through them, too, but they still require care, especially with Defile.

Tried my hand at soloing in 25man normal as a lvl 84 prot paladin. It was going ok and I could kill The Damned mobs but I was unable to get past the swarm of new spawns so eventually I was overwhelmed (6 at once was far too painful), but not before killing 3 of them. Was trying for some boe epics but at this point Ill just try for the boss kills in 10man normal, im pretty confident I have a better chance at that but Im still skeptical. Should at least be able to farm the trash for rep and such though.

I'm Ret currently, but with only 463 iLvl, and I got to Saurfang but couldn't drop him below 50% or so due to his healing and stacking buff, plus the fact that you can't bubble off his mark debuff. Maybe I can burn him down faster with a bit of gear, especially since I have a blue weapon still, but maybe there's a trick I'm missing as well? Thanks for any info!

If you're running ICC with an 80 twink mage then if you have a DK make him control Seuchenwissenschaftler and give Seuchenstrom to the mage. To those of you who are unaware, 80 twink mages can reach 500-1000k DPS in ICC with this buff. Making bossfights even on 25m HM very easy.

Just tried soloing 25m on my DK.

Morrogaw was actually easy. He never got my health low and I beat him with my tank gear well before enrage so would have been easier as blood + DPS gear.

Lady Deathwhisper is very hard. One of the adds casts a curse which adds a 15 second CD to all of your abilities. Tried a few times focusing on those adds when they were up but couldn't kill them fast enough and kept getting cursed. Don't see how any class could do this as only mage can remove the curse. Switched to 10 man and killed with no problems.

I figured the boat was gonna be very hard so did on 10 man using the tactic Maulis425 posted. This was then very easy 10 man so will try again 25 man another week.

Saurthang - well this was going well but I couldn't beat the enrage timer was just under 50% on enrage using blood spec and DPS gear. The damage during this fight is considerable so I think a tank class with exceptional DPS could do this but not sure if locks / hunters could keep their pets alive for the whole fight.

I wiped many times on Festergut, with his 40m health and 5 minute enrage timer this fight is very difficult. You need 133k DPS to beat the enrage timer. The trick for doing this as a DK is to MC a plague scientist before you start the fight. The plague scientist has an ability which buffs your damage 100%. Festergut puts a stacking buff on you (10% damage increase) but if you reach 10 stacks you will die. DKs can avoid by cast Anti Magic Shell as he casts his 9th stack. If you time this right your stacks will reset. I wasn't able to kill him but I know it can be done.

Compared to Festergut Rotface was easy. You can MC a plague scientist for this fight as well and with the 100% increased damage I got him on my first attempt.

This is as far as I've got to date would love to hear from others how their soloing of 25 man went.

how can i how can i get the icc tier ten set

Kommentar von shatahn

If you're still struggling to find the entry, here is the easiest way to do it, even on my low graphics with no view distance spare laptop I can find it:

1) On the NW corner (52.70, 83.50) there is a long set of stairs leading to a gargoyle mouth at ground level. Fly (at low distance view) with the ground visible until you find the stairs.

2) Don't bother landing but rather fly up while travelling South West

3) You should arrive in the area of (50.85, 89.40) where there is a middle-tier platform. From here you can easily find ( 52.14, 89.38 )

The dungeons are easily soloable at 90 for infinite dust.

Kommentar von 3lizadeath

Patch 5.3 seems to have broken the way lockouts can be switched from 10 man to 25 man heroic. Previously, when farming LK 25M H the lockout switching from 10 man normal (11/12) to 25 man heroic was able to be switched while outside the instance. Upon attempting to do this after patch day for 5.3 it had not worked. After some research and testing you can now get it to work by doing the same thing with the exception of setting it to heroic while outside. Outside of the instance it should be switched from 10 man to 25 man and then once you zone in on 25 man normal you can switch it to heroic which will then give you a 25 man heroic lockout that is 11/12.

Kommentar von ouyab

Even though it's a low level raid from an old extension this still a challenge even for some high geared 90s and gives an interesting loot

Kommentar von Tenjen

drops

tiron rolls 99 (1-100)

"The Weight of such a burden! It must be mine! for there is no other tha.."

Fordring rolls 100 (1-100)

"TIRION!"

"Goddamnit Fording this is totally a paladin item. Arthas was a paladin, iam a paladin! dont roll on my upgrades!"

Kommentar von 1148816

ICC is, from all of the raids that I have done, is my favourite. The architecture is epic, it features the Lich King, and the loot is great. Also, the achievement mounts are the best mounts ingame. The only raid that compares to this one is the Molten Core, and that is only because I love gearing up in raid gear.

Kommentar von Yogilaw

Some good advice on here but be careful. If you want to try & solo this raid as a 90 make sure you are; a) A Tank & b) Very well geared.

Of the 1st 3 bosses the gunship is the toughest, mainly because it is the actual ship that is the Boss, not its commander or Mage. If you don't get the sequencing right in terms of; cannon fire, portal clear out, Mage kill, you will come a cropper.

Saurfang is a tough fight for pure dps units, but the Upper Tier Bosses are far worse. Forget the dragon that needs healing unless you can perform this function (simply click one of the green orbs & move on).
The 3 Princes are also a damn hard battle. You need to make sure you keep targeting the correct one as they swap stats at intervals during the fight.

Frankly if you're pure dps it's gonna be very hard to complete. Most of our group are ilvl550 & not 1 has got past the Crimson thingy wing.

As a small 3 man group this raid is doable as just dps characters, but really it's Tank or nothing unless you have some good tricks.

Edit: Actually, this turns out not to be a tough as the 1st run proved. Beat down everyone 2nd time around. Lich King was not so bad as I thought, just stay with your back to his throne (on or at bottom of steps) to avoid the big knock back. There is a wait until frozen ally finishes him off, so don't get impatient after getting him down to 10% (you have won).

Kommentar von 494651

As of 6.0.2 this place is almost obscenely easy to solo. So far I've solo'd through Festergut/Rotface on 25 man.

The only one you can't do on 25 man is the Gunship Battle. I tried 6-7 times before switching to 10man and beating it easily. Everything else has been a cakewalk so far though.

Kommentar von Animosa

For some reason after killing all bosses except lich king on 10hc, everytime I switched to 25 player it switched back to 10 mode automatically.
So Invincible farmers beware!

Kommentar von 494651

So it looks like as of Patch 6.1 you can no longer clear up to LK on normal then switch it to heroic. Now you have to clear the whole stinking place on Heroic if you want a chance at the mount.

Kommentar von Ethna

Comments on gunship battle at lvl 100: after many many runs on 25H, I never get the rocket pack from the goblin because will never go to the other ship. Start the encounter, grab a gun, spam 1 and stop before it overheats -- wait for the horde ship (maybe goose 1 a couple times to fill up the bar) and when it appears let loose with 2 then keep spamming 1. Shortly you will be dismounted from cannon and a couple of horde will appear from portal on your deck, easy kills, as the ship goes down. Then just wait for the loot chest.

Kommentar von 1442032

Entrance is at 53.25, 85. Once you kill the Lich King, there are only 2 options for exit:
1. Jump off the platform and die to stay in Northrend
2. Hearth

I would LOVE this raid if it was not for the fact that I cant figure out how to get to sindragosa and the professor boss to fight the lich king :(

Kommentar von Kurtosis

I killed all the bosses in here on my 100 warrior, but it doesn't unlock the transporter option to port up to the Lich King. Anyone know what the problem is? I skipped Dreamwalker b/c not a healer, also that fight is not required to get to Sindragosa anymore anyway (as of 6.0.x Dreamwalker's gate to Sindragosa is always open).

Any ideas?

Kommentar von Hordearmy

it been long time when i killed lich king. I miss those days.

Kommentar von Vidyaschmoe

I'm not sure how recently it was added (possibly in 7.1.5), but there is now a portal that appears to the left of the stairs leading up to the throne after killing The Lich King. It takes you back down to Light's Hammer where there is another portal next to the Dalaran one that can take you back up to the Frozen Throne.

Kommentar von Battlemeister

I am not able to add yet but just wanted to comment that on heroic 25 you can get remains of a blood beast item to summon a blood boil pet. I just got it from running that mode.

Kommentar von 40604

I can't be the only one who didn't notice this until very recently. I had stopped farming Invincible for a while during Legion, then recently came back. A few changes:

1) You used to be able to jump out of Blood Queen's room and use a Goblin Glider to wall glitch and glide down to SIndragosa's ledge. Gliders were nerfed to no longer be used in instances (I knew about this).

2) You used to be able to do the following (because ICC used to have split raid locks): kill 11/12 (10/12 if you skipped Dreamwalker) on 10M normal, then zone out, swap to 25N, zone in, and change to 25H for Lich King. Now, the raid lock system has been updated so that ICC no longer has split locks. I have no idea when this happened, but I'm assuming it was around the same time that the Goblin Gliders got nerfed.

So, now, if you're farming Invincible, you have to do 11/12 on 25N, then switch to 25H for Lich King.

Kommentar von bookworm13

Killed Sindragosa (and every other boss but Valithria Dreamwalker) but can't figure out how to get to the Lich King?

Use any teleporter and choose the Upper Reach. Run to the middle of the Spire. Don't click on the teleporter: Just walk across it and it will port you up to the Lich King.

Kommentar von Syntholia

25H solo run on 930 prot warrior, took about the same amount of time (with one exception). All bosses have about 3.37x as much health as before 7.3.5, and that includes Valithria Dreamwalker. Bosses that died in one hit now take 2 or 3 with my weak DPS, no biggie, 1 sec vs 4 sec not a big deal. However, the healing from bandages or pump action bandage gun didn't get scaled, so what used to be one application of Seidengewebte Schiene to heal her to full before the 4 liches even get to you, now turned into a 6 minute fight again. I recommend skipping this boss unless you can natively heal or absolutely have to get a specific xmog item.

Gunship battle doesn't have any visible health numbers, but my cannon blasts that used to do 37.5k damage were doing 115k or so each, so it died in same amount of time before the battle even started.

Here is what I noted for health on 25H bosses:
Boss (25H) Health (M)
Lord Marrowgar 53.8
Lady Deathwhisper 45.9
Gunship Battle
Deathbringer Saurfang 75.3
Valithria Dreamwalker 30.9/61.7
Sindragosa 78.9
Festergut 89.7
Rotface 81.3
Professor Putricide 86.1
Prince Valanar 52.3
Blood-Queen Lana'thel 122.3
The Lich King 176.9

Totally anecdotal, but this, my first run post 7.3.5 patch, and I finally got Unbesiegbars Zügel from LK. Take from that what you will.

As of 8.0 the two bigger dragon mobs before Sindragosa might be out of your range. Just wait a minute or so and they will spawn to main platform

The entrance to the this is in Icecrown straight up the main set of stairs at the entrance of Icecrown Citadel. Or you can fly to <53.21,85.11> and go into the door there, and the entrance is right up ahead!

Kommentar von delilama

As of Patch 8.1.5 (BfA), here is how the instance/lockout works:

It is shared between 10 and 25 man modes
If using an alt to save your lockout, make sure to use Normal mode as Heroic gets shared (like Mythic saves in modern instances)
You can still do any combination of normal and heroic fights and fight Lich King on Heroic, but only on 10 or 25 man mode
For Valithria, you can use bandages on her to heal if you don't have a healing class; but in Heroic, she still takes ticking damage

Good adventures!

Kommentar von The0o

If you plan to use shared lockout method to farm the Lich King, A DH can clear ICC the fastest and use the old glider shortcut.

A few patches ago any class with a glider could skip right to Sindragosa after killing Blood-Queen Lana'thel. Blizzard changed it so gliders no longer work in ICC but DH's glide still works. After killing Blood-Queen Lana'thel face the hole made by the chandelier, jump down and glide into the left wall. you will go thought it and and be above the area where you fight Sindragosa.

Kommentar von RocketFan

This is a complete walkthrough for soloing Heroic ICC. It was trivial for a level-50 Arcane Mage and easy for a 41 Rogue (post Shadowlands level squish).
Because both of my toons that ran it were overpowered for it, there’s little information here on fight mechanics.
There is a repair vendor to the right in front of the tent just after you enter the instance.
There are portals at various points around the citadel. You can use them to go back to the start to vendor and/or repair.
My rogue found no mobs that could be pick pocketed, so save your time.

Lord Marrowgar:
Go straight ahead to Lord Marrowgar and clear mobs for drops as you go.
Lord Marrowgar dies quickly if you are level 50.

Lady Deathwhisper:
Take either left or right ramp up to the Oratory of the Damned, which is to the south.
Kill trash and then Lady Deathwhisper.

Icecrown Gunship Battle:
Lady Deathwhisper is standing on an elevator. Take it up to the Rampart of Skulls. Head north.
You can ride your mount here. Kill trash all around the circle around the citadel before heading to the gunship.
Head to the gunship. Talk to Marudin Bronzebeard (Alliance) or High Lord Saurfang (Horde) to the side and tell him you are ready.
Jump on one of the cannons. Shoot at the other ship but don't let the gun overheat.
Edit: When I ran this the next week, there were zero trash mobs around the ring. It cost me some rep.
Deathbringer Saurfang:
Skybreaker docks at Deathbringer's Rise. Hop off and talk to Marudin Bronzebeard (Alliance) or High Lord Saurfang (Horde) when you are ready.
The door ahead opens and Deathbringer Saurfang comes out. Kill him after the intro.

Festergut:
The door reopens ahead, so go through. Work around to the north and there is cold air to hurt you.
Turn left when you get inside The Spire. Kill trash and enter The Plagueworks. Continue heading west.
Turn left (south) towards Festergut at the intersection and kill any mobs. Kill Festergut.

Rotface:
As you leave Festergut's room, turn the valve to the left of the door.
Head back and around to Rotface. Kill him.

Professor Putricide:
Turn the valve on the right as you leave Rotface's room.
Go back to the intersection and the doors on the east will now be open.
After you go through the doors, many bugs will spawn and the doors behind will close.
The doors ahead are locked. Kill a bunch of bugs and the second set of doors will open.
Go through and kill Professor Putricide.
You will find bottles on the table behind him. Those are for lower-level players who need to work through the mechanics.

Blood Prince Council:
Turn around and go back to The Spire. Turn left and take the north exit from The Spire and enter The Crimson Hall.
Kill the trash. There is an Empowering Blood Orb that gives an unneeded boost for a level 50.
Continue north to the next room with Blood-Queem Lana'thel. Kill trash. Lana'thel gives a speech.
She disappears and Three Princes rise in front of her, so kill them for purple gear.

Blood-Queen Lana'thel:
Doors open to ramps on the left and right. Take either one. Kill mobs as you go.
They drop stuff, so you may want to go do the other ramp, too.
When you get to the top, Lana'thel will be in the room to the north. Go in and kill her.

Valithria Dreamwalker:
Go back out the rooms and there will be a hole in the floor. My mage floated down; you can take the ramp back down.
Go back south to The Spire and turn left. You will find Crok Scourgebane of the Ebon Blade just outside The Frostwing Halls.
Crok and his crew will watch you kill the mobs in the hall. None of them drop anything.
Sister Svalna will give a short speech. Kill her (no drops) and turn right (south). Crok stays behind.
You are supposed to heal Valithria Dreamwalker, but it's not necessary to continue with the instance.
Neither of my toons had healing abilities, so I skipped that part.
There will be some trash that will attack you and some will attack Valithria. Kill the trash.
Eventually, some portals appear. Click on one to move on.

Sindragosa:
Go south to the room behind where Valithria was and take the elevator down.
Head north to a large circular room in the Frostwing Halls. There is a closed door on the opposite side of the room.
Many bugs will descend on you in several waves, but the doors open when they are all dead.
Go north into The Frost Queen's Lair. Kill more trash! Kill Rimefang and Spinestalker.
Sindragosa (a dragon) flies down to you on the platform. Kill her.

The Lich King:
Turn around and go back up the stairs and turn right onto a ramp up. There is a portal. Take it down to the Upper Spire.
Go north to the Spire and head towards the center. Step on the round circle with a cyan symbol in it.
That takes you to The Frozen Throne. Talk to Highlord Tirion Fordring. Tell him you are ready.
The Lich King shows and they talk. Burn him down to 1%. He gives another speech.
He can knock you off the platform, which results in death, so try to keep your back to the throne.
If you die, take the portal to Upper Spire and then to The Frozen Throne.
When I got him down to 1%, he hit me with a DoT that killed me. I could not rez as my "soul belongs to the Lich King."
He zaps you with a beam and keeps talking. Tirion starts talking.
After more speeches, Tirion starts to attack Arthas (TLK) and Terenas Menethil resurrected me.
You can now finish off Arthas and then the final cut scene ensues. You are done.
There is a portal to the beginning on the platform. Take it to Light's Hammer. There is a portal to Dalaran there.
