Fall of the Lich King!
Sorry for taking ages to replay about my run in ICC. Had many things to do and haven’t had the time to get on here and post about it!
Yes that right! I have joint the group of King Slayers! After many attempts we finally killed the Lich king! WooHoo! The battle was seriously hard. At one point we didn’t think we would be able to down the King, after wiping around 15 times its kinda a downer on our spirits. But we pushed on.. and on…. and on and finally hit the the final phase! (the one where you cant lose at all!)
With me being the only ranged class we had in this fight it was very hard on me! I had to dispel the Enraged effects from the Shambling Horror, Destroy the Ice Sphere and kill as many Vile Spirits as I could before they decided that they wanted to fly down and explode…
The main problem I had was when we had to run back into the middle (Phase Transitions) I would forget to take out one of the Ice Sphere’s, causing most of our team to try there hand at flying… With no mount. It didn’t work to well.
Our other problem, and this will be for most teams that went in there, was the “Defile” Iv never hated a spell so much! For those who don’t know, this is an AOE spell that gets placed on the ground. The Lich King targets a random player and casts it. The have about a second to move out the way. This grey swirling mess forms at the targeted players feet and deals 3,000 Shadow damage to anyone in the area. Now that doesn’t sound that bad does it, but wait its not over yet. Every time a player is hit with this Defile it increases in size. There is no limit to how big it can grow. If to many people get hit then it will cover the hole boss area. There is nowhere to run. Wipe will soon follow. Agh god the amount of time we wiped because of this spell…
It finally got to that point where people said “Ok lets give it one more go and then well call it a night” One more go! That all we had. (We would of saved the raid for another day but chances are we wouldnt be able to get all the people back on) We tried again. Got to phase 2 with the Val’kyr and Defile and the worst thing happened. Our tank died! Thinking this would be over people were calling wipe… But no! Rebirth was cast on the tank. He sprang back into the action taking the Lich King off the off tank and we continued!
We had got the Lich king down to 19% before but this time we were going for it! “20%….19%…..18%!!” We were hitting the King hard. Before we knew it he had 12% HP left! Just 2% more! We can do this. Team speak was now full of people talking “Come on!!” “We can do this!” “Just 2% more people!” BOOM! The raid fell to the ground, Fury of Frostmourne had be cast! The Lich king was at 10% Cheers were going out on TS. People knew we had won. The Lick King had fallen!
I just want to say a huge thank you to my group. We all did great that night. Epic team!
