Wrath of the Lich Stacking

Just for the record, Amnerys is mean. But you'd have to admit she has a wicked sense of humor. Unfortunately, Bishuk's left hand did have to wait another week.



Honestly speaking, Lich King 10 Heroic took a bit longer than we expected. We were used to 10 man content being a few pulls deal to beat for the first time, and while more challenging than normal, heroic 10 man in general had not been a huge roadblock to our progression.

We had started playing with some strategy and early attemps at the 5% buff, if I recall correctly. Back then, the fight felt impossible. 10% made it hopeful. 15% made this fight achievable with the limitations we had.

What were these limitations? Well.... This is Risen. We always make a point to make boss fights more difficult, and then overcome it for more satisfaction.

We did it with a resto druid and disc priest when people cried out "Don't even try LK heroic without a pally/disc combo!". We had to replace one of our tanks very close to a kill due to certain work commitments (replaced with a off spec prot pally). We did it without the ability to stack our raids with any conceivably "optimal" make up.

But that's what we do. We're Risen. We don't drop our philosophies just because an encounter is tough. Through 5% to 15%, we grinded our way through to a server 2nd LK10H kill.

The Wrath of the Lich Stacking? I think not!!
