Is it too late to slay Arthas?

Hey! I really want to do the Ice Crown Citadel raid as it was ment to be played, only problem is I have 0 characters on the Lick King Classic servers. Are ICC raids still going or have people moved on to Onixyia now?

Thanks in advance for all replies!

ICC is not out yet and wont be for at least another 2-3 months, if not longer. If you are rich enough to blow about 300eur on botted gold, you can probably get geared for it in time in GDKP raids.
If you want to do it “legit” you are probably crap out of luck, you’d need to be farming/progressing ToGC with your LC/DKP guild right now to gear for ICC.

You got plenty of time, ToC just got released.

Dont listen to Negative-Nancy above, sure there are alot of GDKP’s out there, but its definitely possible to find a guild and progress the “old” way.

Thanks for the replies both of you. I saw that I have my lvl 62 from classic that got boosted apparently is still there and can be used in wrath. Are warriors a generally ok class? I am thinking about tanking, or should I stuck to dps? I know how to tank, just wondering if tanks in general are needed :smiley:

From here on out, warrior dps will only become stronger. They had a really rough patch the last 2 patches (apparantly, i dont play one so dont have first-hand knowledge). They are okay now, but will become quite good in icc with proper gear (this is only personal experience from Private servers, no idea how the meta will be in classic wotlk)

You might be able to find some groups, but “everyone” wants prot pala now. Its the meta, and the meta-slaves follow it blindly. You can do perfectly fine as a warrior tank, but might find some obstacles along the way.

Always. Dont be alarmed by “meta-slaves”, there is always someone looking for a tank. If i were you, i would go tank mainspecc, and just pick up fury pieces for offspecc when you can.

Once again, thank you so much for the in depth reply :slight_smile: One last question, how are death knights doing this expansion? I like the idea of going back as a DK to take down Arthas, but im also scared to choose bad classes…

Edit: Also, should I use guides I.E Icy-veins and wowhead, or do you recommend I go blind and learn as I go?

I think they are doing okay on the dps-meters. And somewhat wanted, both frost/uh for the buffs/utility that they bring.
Never played one, tried tanking on P-servers, and it was BEYOND THE ABSOLUTE WORST TANK SPECC I EVER TRIED (caps intended:P) I dont know how or what it was, maybe the rune system i didnt like (or maybe i just sucked). But im NEVER touching another tank dk again… This is obviously a personal oppinion, you might like it:)

I think the best bet is to go on a char/specc that you are somewhat familiar with, and have maybe a dk as an alt-project of some kind. You never know what you like until you try it out.

Read abit on both, check stat prios etc. As you play your char you get the feeling on what you need/want for gearing. Following a build blindly can work (it usually does), but i think its fun to learn and control my own char myself, finding out what works and what doesnt.

I find wowhead to be abit more in-depth than icyveins, but doesnt hurt to read up on both.

Some bosses require more survivability, some require more threat, if i have 10 rogues/hunters i dont need to worry about threat etc etc. Its the little things that i find fun, again this is a personal oppinion.

No sweat, im in the lfg atm anyway:P gotta kill time some how

It’s never too late to start, Especially in this phase.
You just have to be persistent when farming your pre-raid gear/gold.
I hit 80 on this paladin like a month ago and it’s already geared enough to get into heroic TOGC10/25) with just dungeons and afew VOA and like 1 10 man TOGC.

its never been easier to gear up a character in wotlk.

I am glad to read this. Gives me hope.

There’s definitely still time to kill Arthas :slight_smile:

Hit us up on Giantstalker if you want to progress through all the content before ICC!

You are too late! Game is gonna die in a few months, its allready just a hollow shadow compared to what it was in 2019. Most players have left, its mostly toxic neckbeards and bots still playing and more and more of them are falling off every day lately too. Seems most who are left are just torturing themself to hold out a few more months to ICC before they can uninstall and never touch WoW ever again.

I mean if you dont have any characters then consider yourself lucky for not having wasted any time on this toxic degenerative crap at all and you should continue to avoid it is my advice to you <3
