Subject: How Will LICH KING be defeated?
  
Honest question Blizz, your trailer focused on Lich King and your expasion titile suggest that as well.

How are you guys planning the end game that is defeating Lich King? Is this going to be another 25 man raid to kill one of the most powerfull charecter in Warcraft? If this is true then what's the point of Lich King being the Focus in trailer and the title?

The point of the Lich King being in the trailer, is that we are going to Northrend to face him and his forces. He and they are a known threat that continues to plague all of Azeroth with their very existence.

How will people defeat him? Hopefully with bravery and valor, or at the least, superior strategy and firepower (and a few gnome sacrifices.)

Exact details on what players can expect when facing him (and with how many) is still being ironed out. Players WILL be able to face him (as of this point in time) with both 25 and 10 player encounters, however, there may yet be some additional thought put into just how 10 player groups will be able to access him. It may not come until after a 25 player group has killed him first to unlock the 10 encounter. This will be decided and made known at some point in time, but in the meantime, there is all of Northrend that still will need to be encountered and his forces to cut through.

Winter is cold and colder still are the winds that bring a dark foreboding.
I squint against it and feel nothing as it slips across my skin.
My heart is still but revenge beats hot.

Thanks Blizz. I feel content playing the race that is the punch-line of all of WoW. Now that you've said that I'm probably going to be sacrificed to defeat Arthas I feel much better. /sarcasm


Don't worry, apparently a cousin of yours (a lawn gnome) was recently used as a weapon too. There is nothing wrong with bravely sacrificing yourself to defeat a powerful and malicious enemy, nor did I say how that sacrifice would occur. Who's to say you don't go out in a blaze of glory and end up being the key to his very defeat? (Dependent on your class and skill and various other complexities...)
