The Lich King Strategy Guide – Icecrown Citadel Raid WotLK Classic

The Lich King stands as the ultimate trial in Icecrown Citadel and the most legendary encounter of the Wrath of the Lich King expansion. This section of The Lich King Guide follows the defeat of Sindragosa and features the climactic battle against Arthas Menethil. The fight spans approximately 15 minutes across four distinct phases, featuring over 15 unique mechanics and five different enemy types that combine to create one of the most demanding encounters in World of Warcraft history.

The encounter gained legendary status when Finnish guild Paragon claimed the World First kill in 25-man heroic difficulty after 7 weeks and over 170 attempts in March 2010.

Phase 1 Strategy: Necrotic Plague & Add Management (100% – 70%)

The Tank Challenge – WotLK Gear Check

Phase 1 introduces the encounter’s first major gear check. The Lich King delivers catastrophic melee damage, striking for approximately 170,000 physical damage before armor mitigation (roughly 38,000 damage after reduction on tanks) with a 1.5-second swing timer. This damage output significantly exceeds most other raid bosses in the expansion.

As the phase progresses, Plague Siphon stacks cause this damage to escalate dramatically, potentially reaching 250,000 physical damage per swing (over 50,000 on tanks). By 2.5 minutes into the encounter, the boss can nearly one-shot tanks with every melee attack if they aren’t maintained at maximum health.

---

Infest Mechanic – Lich King Raid Damage (Every 20 seconds)

Infest doing a raid-wide shadow damage ability that tests your healing coordination:

• Deals 11,000 shadow damage instantly (19,000 in heroic)
• Applies ramping damage-over-time effect to all players
• Each tick increases by 25% over the previous tick
• Removed only when player reaches 90% health or higher
• Power Word: Shield coverage highly effective for mitigation

Tips : Coordinate to bring the entire raid above 90% HP quickly after each cast to remove the debuff before it ramps out of control.

---

Drudge Ghouls Strategy – ICC Raid Guide (Every 30 seconds)

These weak adds serve a critical strategic purpose:

• Spawns 3 ghouls per cast
• 450,000 HP each
• Minimal threat and damage
• Must be kept alive for Necrotic Plague bouncing
• Tanked by off-tank away from main boss

Critical Warning: Do not DPS these adds! They are essential cannon fodder for the Necrotic Plague mechanic.

---

Shambling Horror Tanking Guide (Every 60 seconds)

Powerful elite adds that require careful management:

• 4,000,000 HP per Horror
• Deals approximately 25,000 damage per swing to tanks
• Shockwave: 150% weapon damage in 20-yard frontal cone
• Enrage (every 20 seconds): Triples damage output – requires Tranquilizing Shot or Anesthetic Poison
• Frenzy (at 20% HP): Doubles damage until death – stun rotation recommended

Positioning: Must be faced away from raid to avoid Shockwave damage.

---

Necrotic Plague Guide – The Defining Mechanic

Necrotic Plague is the most complex and crucial mechanic of Phase 1. Mastering it determines your success or failure.

Base Information:

• Targets random raid member every 30 seconds
• Deals 100,000 shadow damage every 5 seconds for 15 seconds (150,000 in heroic)
• Total of 300,000 damage over duration (450,000 in heroic)
• No player can survive this damage without strategy

The Bouncing Strategy:

1. Player gets infected with Necrotic Plague
2. Infected player immediately runs to off-tank’s add position
3. Player positions within 10 yards of Drudge Ghouls or Shambling Horror
4. Healer dispels the plague from the player
5. Plague jumps to nearest enemy within 10 yards
6. Plague gains one stack with each jump, doubling its damage
7. Multiple plagues on same target combine their stacks
8. Stacked plague eventually destroys even Shambling Horrors

The Risk: Every time Necrotic Plague jumps to a new target, The Lich King gains one stack of Plague Siphon, increasing his physical damage by 2%. This creates the phase’s core tension: you need the plague to kill adds, but each kill makes the boss hit harder.

Critical Rules:

• Never let the plague run out of targets to jump to
• Never dispel unless the carrier is near adds
• If plague has no target when dispelled, it’s permanently lost
• Off-tank must always maintain add availability for plague bouncing

---

Shadow Trap Mechanic – Heroic Mode Only (Every 15 seconds)

A positioning challenge unique to heroic difficulty:

• Spawns trap at random player’s location
• 5-second arming time
• Triggers explosive launch off platform (instant death)
• Creates persistent void zone for 60 seconds
• No resurrection possible for victims

Strategy: Watch for trap placement and move away immediately. Mark safe zones as traps accumulate.

Time	Ability
Every 20 sec	Infest
Every 30 sec	Summon Drudge Ghouls

Phase 1 Strategy Summary – ICC Boss Guide

Primary Goal: Push phase as quickly as possible before Plague Siphon stacks make the boss unkillable for tanks.

⚔️DPS Priority:

1. The Lich King (primary target)
2. Never touch Drudge Ghouls
3. Let Necrotic Plague kill all adds passively

🛡️Tank Management:

• Main tank: Boss at all times
• Off-tank: Collect all adds, maintain threat on Shambling Horrors
• Save defensive cooldowns for 15+ Plague Siphon stacks

💉Healer Focus:

• Maintain tanks at maximum HP constantly
• Coordinate Infest healing to get raid above 90%
• Only dispel Necrotic Plague when carrier is positioned near adds

---

Remorseless Winter Strategy – Lich King Intermission Phase

Occurs at 70% HP and again at 40% HP. This minute-long intermission tests your raid’s ability to handle multiple mechanics simultaneously.

---

Positioning and Frost Damage

Remorseless Winter:

• Channels for 60 seconds
• Deals 10,000 frost damage per second (15,000 heroic)
• 45-yard radius around The Lich King
• Visual cue: Transition from stone floor to ice indicates safe zone

Immediate Actions:

1. Run to ice platform edges (beyond 45-yard radius)
2. Kill any remaining Drudge Ghouls
3. Burn down Shambling Horrors if time permits
4. Dispel Necrotic Plagues away from raid (10+ yards)

---

Pain and Suffering – ICC Cone Damage (Continuous)

Random cone attack targeting players:

• 5,000 shadow damage initial hit (8,000 heroic)
• Applies DoT: 2,400 over 3 seconds (3,600 heroic)
• Frontal cone effect

Positioning: Spread ranged DPS and healers away from tanks and melee to minimize players hit per cast.

---

Raging Spirit Adds – WotLK Boss Mechanics (Every 20 seconds)

Hostile player copies that spawn throughout the intermission:

• First intermission: 3 total Raging Spirits
• Second intermission: 4 total Raging Spirits
• 4,150,000 HP each
• Deals approximately 35,000 melee damage to tanks
• Soul Shriek: 30,000 shadow damage frontal cone (45,000 heroic) + 5-second silence (dispellable)

Strategy:

• Tanks pick up immediately and face away from raid
• Must kill all before intermission ends
• Carrying these into next phase creates major problems

---

Ice Sphere Mechanics – Critical Priority Target (Continuous Spawns)

Deadly orbs that threaten the entire raid:

• Spawns in front of boss, floats toward raid
• Locks onto target, deals 5,000 frost damage AoE (8,000 heroic)
• 54,000 HP each
• Ice Burst if reaching player: 30,000 frost damage + knockback = death

Critical Priority: Ranged DPS must kill these immediately. If they reach the raid, they explode and knock players off the platform into the void with no chance of resurrection.

Best Classes: Hunters excel at this role due to instant target switching and consistent damage.

---

Quake Ability – Intermission Finale

The finale of each Remorseless Winter:

• 5-second cast warning
• Destroys entire ice platform
• All players must return to main arena
• Anyone remaining on ice falls to death

Timing: Be prepared to move immediately when Quake begins. Don’t wait until the last second.

---

Phase 2 Guide: Defile & Soul Reaper Strategy (70% – 40%)

Phase 2 retains Infest but removes all add-based mechanics from Phase 1. Instead, it introduces two of the encounter’s most lethal abilities.

---

Defile Mechanic – WotLK’s Deadliest Ability (Every 35 seconds)

Considered one of the most punishing mechanics in WoW raiding history: Defile

How It Works:

• Targets random player after 3-second cast
• Spawns shadow puddle at target’s location
• Doubles in size every second when player touches it
• Base damage: 10,000 shadow damage per second
• Damage increases by 500 per size growth
• Can snowball to cover entire platform
• Lasts 30 seconds

The Danger: If multiple players are caught, Defile grows faster than they can escape, eventually consuming the platform and causing a guaranteed wipe.

Survival Strategy:

1. Entire raid spreads out as Defile timer approaches
2. Targeted player uses Nitro Boosts immediately
3. Run to platform edge to place Defile far from raid
4. Never jump while escaping (server position updates only on landing)
5. All other players avoid the growing puddle

Pro Tip: Engineering Nitro Boosts are essentially mandatory for consistent Defile placement.

---

Soul Reaper Tank Buster – Heroic Mode Challenge (Every 30 seconds)

The ultimate tank-buster ability: Soul Reaper

Initial Hit:

• 50% weapon damage immediately
• Applies Soul Reaper debuff

Delayed Burst:

• After 5 seconds: 60,000 shadow damage (70,000 heroic)
• Boss gains Soul Reaper buff: 100% attack speed for 5 seconds

The Threat: Combines massive shadow burst with doubled physical damage afterward. Without proper cooldown rotation, this will kill tanks repeatedly.

Survival Requirements:

Cooldown Type	Examples
Tank Personal	Shield Wall, Vampiric Blood, Barkskin
External	Hand of Sacrifice, Pain Suppression, Guardian Spirit
Raid-wide	Divine Guardian, Aura Mastery

Strategy: Create rotation schedule before pull. Each Soul Reaper cast must have planned defensive coverage. Consider tank swaps when cooldowns are exhausted.

Hidden Gem: Protection Warrior’s Safeguard provides reliable 30% damage reduction on 30-second cooldown (matches Soul Reaper timing perfectly). Often overlooked but extremely effective.

---

Val’kyr Shadowguard Strategy – ICC Grab Mechanic (20 seconds, then every 45 seconds)

Three Val’kyr Shadowguards spawn and grab players:

Normal Mode:

• 700,000 HP each
• Grab random non-tank players
• Carry toward nearest platform edge
• Drop player to death if not killed
• Can be stunned (rotation highly beneficial)
• Maximum 50% slow due to Wings of the Damned
• Cannot be rooted

Heroic Mode:

• 3,000,000 HP each
• Release player at 50% HP (1,500,000 damage)
• Fly above boss after release
• Spam Life Siphon: 5,000 shadow damage, heals Val’kyr for 50,000
• Must be killed between grab phases or they reset to full HP

---

Val’kyr Positioning Guide – WotLK Raid Tactics

This requires precise raid positioning:

Setup:

1. Tank positions Lich King at exact platform center
2. Entire raid stacks at back (maximum distance from edge)
3. Stack as tightly as possible

Why This Works:

• Val’kyrs always drag toward nearest edge
• Tight stacking ensures all 3 Val’kyrs move same direction
• Enables cleaving all Val’kyrs together
• Maximizes time before reaching edge

During Grab Phase:

1. Tank drags boss with raid toward Val’kyrs
2. Cleave boss with Val’kyrs for maximum efficiency
3. Return to center after Val’kyrs die
4. Reset positioning for next mechanic

Special Cases:

• Hunters: Stand near edge, use Disengage to return after being dropped
• Warlocks: Place Demonic Circle near edge, teleport back after drop
• Both classes don’t need to stack with raid, reducing Val’kyr priority

---

Phase 2 Positioning Challenge – ICC Heroic Tips

The deadliest aspect of Phase 2: dynamic positioning requirements

For Defile:

• Raid must be spread across platform
• 10+ yard spacing between players
• Prevents cascade growth

For Val’kyr:

• Raid must stack tightly at back
• Enables cleaving Val’kyrs together
• Maximizes survival time

The Solution: Raid must spread and regroup dynamically based on next incoming ability timer. Requires excellent awareness and communication.

---

Phase 2 Ability Timeline – WotLK Boss Guide

Time	Ability
Every 20 sec	Infest
Every 30 sec	Soul Reaper
Every 35 sec	Defile
20 sec / 45 sec repeat	Summon Val’kyr

---

Second Remorseless Winter – 40% Transition Phase

Identical mechanics to first intermission with one critical difference:

Raging Spirits: 4 total spawns instead of 3

Priority: All Raging Spirits MUST die before Phase 3. Carrying spirits into Phase 3, especially heroic, will cause immediate tank deaths during Harvest Souls animation.

---

Phase 3 Strategy: Harvest Soul & Vile Spirits (40% – 10%)

Phase 3 removes Infest but maintains both Defile and Soul Reaper. Two new mechanics create the encounter’s most intense healing and coordination requirements.

---

Harvest Soul Normal Mode Guide (Every 60 seconds)

A single-target teleportation mechanic:

Process:

1. Cast begins 15 seconds into Phase 3
2. Targets random player
3. Deals 15,000 shadow damage per second for 6 seconds
4. Player teleported into Frostmourne
5. Must defeat Spirit Warden with Terenas Menethil’s help

Inside Frostmourne:

Entity	Details
Terenas Menethil	Tanks Spirit Warden, ~15k damage taken per swing
	Light’s Favor: Heals 5,000 HP/sec, damage scales with HP
Spirit Warden	Melees Terenas, casts Soul Rip (must interrupt/dispel)
	Dark Hunger: Heals 50% of damage dealt

Objective:

• DPS/Tank: Kill Spirit Warden before it kills Terenas
• Healer: Keep Terenas alive until he kills Spirit Warden
• Interrupt or dispel Soul Rip consistently

Success: Terenas casts Restore Soul, returns player to raid

Failure:

• Spirit Warden casts Destroy Soul (permanent death)
• Lich King gains Harvested Soul: +200% damage for 15 seconds
• Likely wipes entire raid through tank one-shot

---

Harvest Souls Heroic Mode – Full Raid Mechanic (Every 60 seconds)

Dramatically different and far more complex than normal mode:

Entire Raid Teleported:

• All players sent into Frostmourne simultaneously
• Deals 4,000 shadow damage per second for 6 seconds
• Total: 24,000 damage to entire raid

Inside Frostmourne – The Survival Dance:

Enemy: Wicked Spirits

• Spawn continuously from sky
• Fly slowly toward raid
• 8,000 HP each
• Explosion if reaching player: 25,000 shadow damage in 10-yard radius

Hazard: Spirit Bombs

• Drop where each Wicked Spirit dies
• Same Explosion effect on ground impact
• Must dodge while killing spirits

Ally: Terenas Menethil

• Channels raid-wide Restore Soul
• Takes 40 seconds to complete
• Teleports all survivors back to raid

Strategy:

1. Kill Wicked Spirits before they reach raid
2. Move as group to dodge Spirit Bombs
3. Maintain tight formation for healing
4. Survive full 40-second duration

---

Heroic Harvest Souls Failure Consequence

Per Death: Lich King gains one stack Harvested Soul (+500% damage per stack)

Critical Timing: If any player dies during final 15 seconds of Harvest Souls phase, and Lich King has Harvested Soul stacks when raid teleports back, he will one-shot tanks and likely wipe entire raid.

Post-Teleport Hazard: Defile spawns immediately on raid as they return stacked on boss. Must spread instantly upon gaining character control.

---

Vile Spirits Mechanic – ICC Phase 3 Challenge (Every 30 seconds)

Ten ghostly spirits that hunt the raid:

Spawn Behavior:

• Appear directly above raid
• Lock onto players
• Fly toward targets
• Lower altitude as they approach

Spirit Burst:

• Triggers on contact with player
• 24,000 shadow damage (36,000 heroic)
• 5-yard AoE around impact

Survival Strategy:

Phase 1 – Run:

1. Raid runs to opposite platform edge immediately
2. Frost Trap placement between spirits and raid (slows pursuit)
3. Spirits follow, lowering altitude

Phase 2 – Intercept:

1. Off-tank waits for spirits to fly low enough
2. Runs into all spirits with defensive cooldowns active
3. Triggers all Spirit Bursts safely away from raid
4. Alternative: Paladin Divine Shield or Shadow Priest Dispersion

Timing: Repeats every 30 seconds, forcing edge-to-edge movement across platform

---

Phase 3 Heroic Timing – WotLK Advanced Strategy

The precise timing creates intense pressure:

1. Harvest Souls begins: 40-second duration
2. 10 seconds later: First Vile Spirits spawn
3. 30 seconds later: Second Vile Spirits spawn
4. Next Harvest Souls: Cycle repeats

This creates overlapping windows where raid must execute both mechanics perfectly while maintaining Defile dodging and Soul Reaper cooldown rotation.

---

Phase 3 Ability Timeline – ICC Boss Guide

Time	Ability
Every 30 sec	Soul Reaper
Every 35 sec	Defile
Every 30 sec	Vile Spirits
Every 60 sec	Harvest Soul(s)

---

Phase 4 Victory: Fury of Frostmourne (10% – 0%)

Fury of Frostmourne Mechanic

Upon reaching 10% HP, the encounter appears lost:

• Lich King casts Fury of Frostmourne
• Deals 1,000,000 shadow damage (unavoidable)
• Entire raid dies
• Cannot resist, cannot reduce, cannot prevent

---

The Resurrection – WotLK Cinematic Phase

After 2 minutes and 40 seconds of roleplay:

Tirion Fordring shatters Frostmourne with Ashbringer, releasing all trapped souls.

Terenas Menethil II emerges from the sword and casts Mass Resurrection on your entire raid.

The Lich King becomes incapacitated, held by the spirits freed from Frostmourne. He cannot attack or defend.

Your Task: Simply burn the remaining 10% HP to claim victory and loot.

Fun Interaction: If you decline Mass Resurrection and remain dead, Tirion Fordring will solo the remaining 10% HP with his slow melee attacks. This takes approximately one hour but allows the fight to complete!

---

Recommended Raid Composition – WotLK Classic

Role	Count	Purpose
Tanks	2	Main tank on boss, off-tank on all adds
Healers	4-6	Balance healing pressure with DPS requirements
DPS	17-19	Maximize damage for strict DPS checks

Philosophy: Each phase contains tight DPS requirements. While healing pressure is real, the encounter rewards bringing maximum DPS to clear phases quickly and minimize mechanical complexity.

🧊 The Lich King – Achievements (Icecrown Citadel)

🏆 Been Waiting a Long Time for This (10 player)

Objective:
Allow Necrotic Plague to stack to 30 before defeating the Lich King in 10-player mode.

Tips:

• The Lich King casts Necrotic Plague periodically during Phase 1.

• When the debuff expires or the target dies, it jumps to a new target and gains 1 additional stack.

• The achievement requires 30 stacks total before the boss reaches 70% health.

• Do not dispel the disease — if it’s removed in any way other than expiring naturally or through death, it will lose all stacks.

• It deals heavy damage, so bring strong healers.

🏆 Been Waiting a Long Time for This (25 player)

Objective:
Same as the 10-player version, but completed in 25-player mode — allow Necrotic Plague to reach 30 stacks before defeating the boss.

👻 Neck-Deep in Vile (10 player)

Objective:
Kill every Vile Spirit before it explodes, then defeat the Lich King in 10-player mode.

Tips:

• Begins at Phase 3 (when the boss reaches 40% HP).

• The Lich King summons 10 Vile Spirits that float in the air.

• After 30 seconds, they explode.

• All spirits must be killed before they explode to earn the achievement.

• Ranged DPS are crucial; have all ranged switch to the spirits immediately while melee stay on the boss.

• This one is very challenging in 10-player mode and is not required for Glory of the Icecrown Raider (10 player).

👻 Neck-Deep in Vile (25 player)

Objective:
Exactly the same as the 10-player version, but done in 25-player mode.
Kill all Vile Spirits before they explode and then defeat the Lich King.

⚔️ Kill Credit Achievements

These are automatically granted when defeating bosses (or boss sets) in Icecrown Citadel.
No special actions are needed — simply defeating the encounters awards them.
Each grants 10 achievement points.
