You had to manage a Sanity mechanic somewhat like in the modern N’Zoth fight in Ny’alotha. Yogg was the ultimate boss of Ulduar, and this Old God fight had multiple phases and mechanics. It was intense, even when we outgeared it. It was the normal fight, but there constant fire that would chase you around. This activated Firefighter - the hardest Hard Mode I ever did. For Mimiron, there was a literal giant red button you pushed. We didn’t have Mythics in WotLK, but most fights had a “Hard Mode” which you activated by the way you did the encounter. It was a fun dynamic and my favorite fight in not just in Ulduar but of the entire expansion. In Phase 4, all three bosses combined Voltron style, and each section had to die within seconds of the other. Then in Phase 3, you did some add tanking as the raid fought a disembodied mechanical head. In Phase Two, there wasn’t anything to tank, so you whacked on the boss. This phase tested your cooldown usage, and your coordination with your healers for external cooldowns. In Phase 1, you tanked a mini-Flame Levithan (an earlier boss). Mimiron was a four-phase fight, and the best part was your job as a tank changed from phase to phase. The fights all had different tanking challenges. The instance was huge and it was beautiful. You could make a case for putting each encounter in Ulduar to make this list. My favorite encounters in the Wrath of the Lich King Mimiron So let’s revisit Wrath by looking at my favorite (and least favorite) encounters from the game’s dungeons and raids. But of all of Wrath of the Lich King, these encounters were the most memorable.
It was a good time to be playing WoW.Īs with Burning Crusade, there were lots of memorable encounters - many more than space would allow. I had a great guild with people who were more than just avatars to help slay internet dragons - they were my friends. WotLK marked my time of greatest investment in World of Warcraft. These opinions come from the perspective of someone who played Wrath day in and day out when the content was live, primarily as a main tank. Wrath of the Lich King Classic is coming soon, so as I did with Burning Crusade, I’m going to look at some of my favorite and least-favorite encounters of the expansion, and we can all go down memory lane together.
