Except she seems to be wearing clothes, unlike Kel'Thuzad, and her hands don't seem to be skeletal. Same skeleton (I'm talking about graphical skeleton of course) and general body, including very Lich like robes.

Comment by 360330

and despite being basically just a floating skeleton, her robe top shows a female design aswell ;)
Nice touch, Blizzard. Wonder if they're going to make more female versions of male-only models.
Like, female Tuskarr, proper female Taunka...so much more to add.

Lich King:Erm..Kel'Thuzad,there was a problem in your ressurection
Kel'Thuzad:What happened to my voice?
Lich King:Yea about that...so we will call you Lady Deathwhisper

Comment by 275965

Girls like all kinds of clothes you know ;)

Comment by 368715

She sorta reminds me of Caster, a sorceress in the anime Fate/Stay Night. Which is good.

I wish she were Kel'Thuzad in disguise however. Even though I prefer a male lich, this is a very nice and dark+evil expressing model. Nothing to remark about it really.
Good job Blizzard :)

Kel'thuzad has gotten a girlfriend, ballin'.

Comment by 128242

I always wondered what Kel'thuzad would look like as a chick...

Seeing Lady Deathwhisper, I kind of wish I had never asked.

Poor Kel, a man trapped in a woman's body. Although, there can be certain advantages to that. >.>

Comment by Stoan

The way our guild did this was pretty simple, it took us three tries to get her down, so aside from Deathbringer she was the next hardest.

We had 3 tanks, one on the left, right and back stairs. All caster classes were on the boss, and all physical classes were on the adds. All the add groups were split into 2 roughly equal damage groups.

The adds don't really do anything fancy aside from a curse and some cleaves to just point them away from the group, and decurse (it adds 15 seconds to all ability cooldown, so get it off quick). The casters will also put shields on them which make them spell reflect, but again casters should be on the boss so no biggie.

When the adds first come out, of course give the tanks a second to pick them up and wail on them, when your side is dead run to the back and kill the single add that comes from the entrance.

Every so often she will empower and re-animate an add. Some times the add is immune to magic which isn't a big deal since they are focusing on the boss so the normal add groups just stomped them. However sometimes they are immune to physical, in which case your add tank on that side will call out for the casters to turn to a particular side, then focus fire the add down and move back to the boss.

The boss will also mind-control so just handle this the same way as KT, sheep and move on.

Once you burn down her shield, she starts P2. No more adds spawn so kill the ones you have left and jump on her. She still casts Death and Decay so move out of it, but she does cast it faster to she will be moving a lot. She also spawns little ghosts and act as walking bombs. They have really low HP so just avoid them and blow them up, we honestly didn't even see them and just kicked the crud out of the boss and healed through the damage. However it is an AoE so spread out to avoid as much damage as possible. She will also Frostbolt, which of course should be interrupt because it hits like a beast, just set up an two interrupters and let them chain kick.

The fight is pretty healing intense so healer management is required, however you don't want to sacrifice DPS for heals on this fight as low DPS will very very quickly overwhelm you in adds or make the fight take a lot longer due to having to get her shield down. But once the shield is down, it gets much easier.

Comment by 295797

Btw, there's a 10 min enrage. Watch out for that. So you have to keep SOME dps on her during the mana shield phase. (Our guild was thinking of putting only a handful of dps on the sheild.)

Comment by rodmin

A small error in the overview text:

It says that are 3 adds total, but i counted a total of 4 Adherents. Should the left side have 1 Adherent instead of 2?

Comment by redraven937

Here were our 10m experiences:

Adds only spawned from one side of the room at a time, so have both tanks over there. Until DBM gets updated to make this trivial, have your tanks call out whether the mobs they are tanking get buffed and with what kind of buff. If the Adherents get Shroud of the Occult, that's a signal for your melee to drop whatever they are doing and attack them. Likewise, if the Fanatics get Fanatic's Determination, have your casters focus fire them down.
Vampiric Might is a magic buff on Fanatics that can be purged/dispeled or Spellstolen - I am not positive if the mage that Spellstole the buff actually got the effect though. Curse of Torpor is an extremely nasty debuff that can be cast on multiple people. Our mage was the sole decurser, and actually had Decurse itself go on a 15 second cooldown when he used it on someone else instead of himself first.
The most dangerous adds are the reanimated Fanatics: they turn into huge zombie guys that look like Ziggurat Defenders and are pretty much impossible to tank. Luckily, they move much slower than normal, so it is easy enough to grab aggro and kite them around until melee/ranged take them out.
There is enough time between add waves to get all of your DPS some solid boss-time, but only if you have everyone on adds. We had seen the 25m videos that showed casters on the boss and melee on adds, but in our experience we sailed into phase 2 much, much quicker by having people nuke the adds. It reminded us a lot of heroic Jaraxxus in this regard.
Phase 2 starts when she runs out of mana, so have tanks ready to pick her up immediately. Her Frostbolt is a ~2 second unresistable cast, and dealt in the neighborhood of 30,000 damage. You need someone to interrupt these. There is a stacking debuff that limits threat generation, so have tanks swap every 3-4 stacks. Finally, she summons a Shade that is untargetable and explodes for some non-trivial AoE damage when it reaches its target - this is something mainly for melee to worry about since they have the least time to react.

The TL;DR version is: 2 tanks, 1 decurser, 1+ interrupts, nuke the adds and watch for their buffs/debuffs.

Comment by ZPalg

I got a question. When my guild went into ICC 25 and fought her the adds got the buffs Vampiric Might and Shroud of the Occult even without being empowered. Is that a glitch or is it wowhead just wrong?

Comment by 125795

Almost got her down by assigning 2xmelee to mob-casters, and 2xcaster to mob-melee. 2 dps on boss, 2 healers total, and 2 tanks. Got her hp to 11%, and then we had to call the raid cause it was too late. But I have faith in that tactic. We were just unlucky.
A tip for healers; when the adds come, try to stay not in mid, but abit more to the oposite side of where they spawn, because the caster mobs reach you in the mid. If you go out of range, they usually target someone else. 2-3 shadowbolts on a healer could mean the wipe of your raid.

Comment by tibbsy

Can anyone confirm whether a Warrior's Spell Reflection will reflect Lady Deathwhisper's Frost Bolt during Phase 2?

Comment by 243048

On 10 man, took several tries to get her down. At first we were trying the strategy with range dps on her to reduce her mana and melee on adds, it didn't work. Our last attempt, new strategy we had all dps on boss nuking her mana, all dps switching to adds to nuke them asap then go back to boss. This strategy worked first time we used it.

Comment by reinhold

I wonder if a Disc Priest with some points in Mana Burn can, with some effort, be a difference maker on this one?

And maybe, also, warlocks use drain mana on her instead of life tapping when needed.

This encounter seems to be quite fun. Let's see how it goes next week :)

Comment by blackquaza

From my experience with this boss in 25-mode, the adds are only transformed into their more-powerful skeletal form after they died using Dark Martyrdom. I am not sure if this can spell be interrupted, but if it can, do it to prevent more work to the DPS.

Comment by 78194

I doubt mana burn would help that much as it is limited by your maximum mana (as all mana removal effects are). Fully raid buffed I hover around 35k mana, however hit capped I have around 30k (this would allow me to burn up to a maximum of 6k mana per burn with 3k being shadow damage done). So roughly 9k Per burn. Talented that is about 9k dmg per 1.6 seconds or 5625 DPS. So decent. Worthwhile if talented (which no PvE disc priests are) and if you have too many healers and need more dps.

Comment by 326684

Not sure if the Martyrdom tip is correct. I've seen mobs do Martyrdom almost as soon as they appear. What would be correct is that it "causes caster to die" and provokes reanimation. At least this is what I've seen on 10 man. 100% reanimation rate on adds who die from Martyrdom.

Edit: Dark Martyrdom info has since been updated.

Comment by Nitros14

WoWhead's guide doesn't even seem to mention it, but she frostbolt volleys in phase 2.

Comment by 42190

My guild gave her a shot last night in 10 man and all I can say is those Empowered adds hit like trucks. As a tank the melee adds where smacking me for 30k a pop.

Comment by coolguyry

This fight is one of the more challenging ones and fun ones when it comes to completing Storming the Citadel. But this is definitely easy compared to Saurfang Jr.. It's a survival fight at best. She activates a mana shield and puts out AoEs and shadow bolts at random raid members during phase 1. Adds also come out. On 10 man, they only come out on one side (but on 25 man they come out at both sides at the room and the enterance where you came into.) Kill the adds. But they ain't dead yet! Deathwhisper will randomly "revive" one of the cultists you killed. Depending on which cultist the Adherent will be immune to magic damage and the Fanatic will be immune to melee damage. They fanatics will cast a nasty buff on them that heals them (and by heal them I mean a whole lot) Meanwhile adherents place a shield over them absorbing damage. Heal people who attack this shield as it will do damage. After the mana shield is gone (and any adds you've cleared up) she'll cast a nasty frostbolt along with a stacking debuff with which tanks need to taunt off each other simultaniously. She still keeps phase 1 abilites and vengeful spirits will also appear from those dead cultists and try to reach someone and cause a whole of damage. Hopefully this helps you a lot with this fight.

Comment by 54981

The Cult Adherents should have priority in being killed first while they are still "alive" when they first spawn since both physical and any magic can harm them. Before they shield themselves. Because not only does it effectively increase their HP from 100k, to 150k. But it will take that much longer and more effort to bring them down since direct damage spells will be reflected back, leaving only physical attacks (and possibly less effective magic AoE) to bring the shield down. In addition, when shielded they cannot be interrupted and wont move, meaning bad times for melee if there is a death and decay at their feet.

Comment by 353024

TL;DR: Ranks of spells are considered separate by the Curse of Torpor, meaning you can downrank and continue casting/using abilities even when the highest ranks are on cooldown.

Ok, we all know that the Curse of Torpor is a pain in the ass, but there is a way to counter it, to a point. Since it places all abilities on a 15 second cooldown, effective when you cast the spell rather than when you get the debuff, it's possible to still be waiting for the spell cooldowns after you've been decursed or spirit cleansed.

If you're unfortunate enough for this to happen, there is a way around it, with minimal loss.

As a holy paladin, I use very few spells per fight when healing. Due to this, my second action bar is a relic of when I was leveling as a different spec, and rank 8 of Flash of Light was still on the action bar, and I noticed something. Despite rank 9 being on cooldown, rank 8 was usable. I was able to keep healing with only a 100 health or so penalty from downranking. Keep this in mind, it could ease your frustration.

Comment by 439135

I'm not sure why Wowhead has the Dominate Mind listed as MCing 3 targets, from my experience, she only MCs one at a time.

Comment by redandgray

Deathknight diseases are spell damage, so you don't want them doing melee on Adherents.

Comment by Lindentree

Warrior tanks, a vig/taunt macro really helps for phase 2. Talk with your fellow-tank about it beforehand so he knows to click vig off before taunting off you again, or better yet re-vig on a high-threat dpser once you've got Deathwhisper securely; but whatever you do, don't have vig on your fellow-tank before you intend to taunt off him. An additional 10% threat reduction is the last thing he needs right now.

Hi if a warlock uses mana burn in p1 on 10(N) it will drain 90k a sec for 5sec thats 450k mana.I think that will realy faster if you dont have good dps
but im not sure

Comment by forshard

As a Hunter

Viper sting is very very effective agaisnt this boss

Drains (up to a maximum 8%) mana from her

meaning ,every 15seconds (shorter with Chimera Shot) you drain 8% of her mana (which as at the time health) and gives you 300% of 8% of her mana,

and being that her total mana is around 2mil (10man) it's sufficient to say you will NOT go oom if used correctly

Comment by 520562

Has anybody ever heard her voice? Hell, she should be more like Lady Death$%^&*ing.

Comment by 93488

Her whole speech reminds me of some female punk band intro. I can't really put my finger on which band it sounds like, but some bands come to mind: The Slits mostly, but also the "dead disco" band Glass Candy.

After the speech I always hear terrible drum beats and crashing guitar chords.

Comment by 302353

Went to ICC10 for the first time yesterday. Lord Marrowgar isn't really exciting... but i found this encounter to be terribly boring.

Any thoughts on this?

Comment by 247567

This boss fight is tough for Enhance Shamans. As a class that's damage is 45% or so magic damage, putting an Enhancement Shaman on melee adds is not the best choice. I find that a lot of people (on our server) try to put and rogue(s) in the group just on her shield and put classes like DKs, Pallys, and Enhance Shams on adds. I also find that these groups A. Have a hard time taking down the adds melee are supposed to and wipe or B. Due to in-experienced players the classes above end up getting spell reflected and die.

If you happen to be in a group where you don't have a lot of heavy melee damage, we've found it best to have casters help with the melee adds until the bubble, and then leave it to the melee to finish them up. This can help bring extra dps to the adds early on and make the melees job a bit easier. Just make sure your casters switch off when the adds bubble. While this strategy is a bit risky, it doesn't take the best players to pull it off. A pretty average group should be able to go through this fight using this strategy, granted it may take a try or two for people to get used to the bubbles. A group of better players should have no problem using this strategy,

Note: This strategy is for a group that is caster heavy/consists of melee classes that also have a high amount of spell damage.

Okay. I know she has that purple dress and stuff, but if she hadn't that word "Lady" over her head and this voice, i would miss her for just another lich... Seriously Blizz, nowhere is written that the leader of the Cult of the Damned must be skeleton chick... Why didn't you make her like Sylvanas, some other female character or even create her LIVING unique model?

Well i readed that she is Kel'thuzads sister i dont know if that is true thou.

Comment by Drunkenvalley

I practically solotanked her during phase 2 today. How to do it? Don't get hit. Ever. Basically, I tried to LoS her around the pillars and juggle her over to DPS' direction at its worst, and taunt her back before she got to do harm.

I died at 100k hp, but the raid pulled through.

Wut wut.

Oh, and why I had to do it? The other tank got two-shot by her Frostbolts over the course of 3 seconds. x_x Not sure yet whether that was my or healer's fault, or whatever. No matter.

Comment by 318094

Healy priesties. Despite the continual downrating on the subject, Mana Burning is a viable way for you to contribute to bringing the shield down quickly, even if you do not have points in Improved Mana Burn.

Let's do some basic numbers shall we? Assuming your mana bar is at 30k (for the record, mine was at roughly 28.5k under my non-int-emphatic gear when I first entered ICC).

DW's mana pool is large enough that you are guaranteed to cap out your potential burn damage as 13% of her mana is far, far greater than 26% of yours. Therefore, it is safe to say that you will drain mana equal to 26% of your bar (for someone with 30k mana, this is 7800 mana burnt from DW).

After the initial burn, half of what was burnt will be dealt as shadow damage to the burnt target (3900 shadow damage), which will in turn also force DW's shield to replenish that damage. In other words, you will be reducing the shield by about 11700 mana every time you cast Mana Burn, far more effective than Smiting (even if every one of your Smites was to crit) and far less taxing on mana.

Other things to note are that the burn damage is affected by various raid-wide buffs that increase damage. I can confirm Arcane Empowerment supporting this, and see no reason why other abilities such as Ebon Plague would not also affect the burn damage.

In a raid that is having no difficulties dealing with adds, holy/disc priests will find themselves with a lot of downtime. With no adds present, the raid damage DW dishes out is pretty negligible in phase 1 and can be spot healed without so much of a thought. Druids, shamans and mages have Curse of Torpor covered (since priests can't remove curses), and in a group with high enough dps, the curses will hardly ever come out, if at all. In short, this makes for some very bored healy priests with lots of downtime between add phases (and with fast enough dps, you will be bored even during them). So, there is nothing wrong with dropping mana burns down as you wait for Phase 2 or something else to do before that phase. In fact, if you are going to be damaging the shield at all, I encourage it.

My mana burn untalented casts at about 2.34 seconds in Holy, whereas my Smite (5/5 Divine Fury) casts at about 1.6 seconds. This of course is factoring in my haste. My Discipline spec obviously casts even faster (also without Imp. Mana Burn) and has several additional haste buffs it can use. I am a troll, so whether I am Holy or Disc Berserking can also be used.

In short, Phase 1 boredom lets me feel like a dps at least until that shield goes down. While I'm healing. It's awesome. You should try it. And if somehow you end up managing two points in Imp. Mana Burn, I imagine you'll feel even better than I do.

Edit: Just so that no one bothers pointing out the obvious even though I specifically only stated Holy and Discipline, Shadow will naturally get more bang for its buck from its actual rotation. So no sense in replying as though I were suggesting this for Spriests as well.

Comment by stylebonswa

Does anyone know which spells/attacks pally tanks can use on which adds? I find that sometimes my attacks are reflected and sometimes they're not. While tanking adherents, I was using my physical type attacks like hammer of the righteous, righteous shield and hammer of wrath and it seemed to be doing damage. My judgments appeared to bounce back as did my consecrate. When I tanked fanatics, I tried the opposite for threat gen and tried to stick to holy spells. Does anyone know if a comprehensive list of tank/adds combinations?

Comment by 245256

10-Man Heroic Notes
The key to this fight is standing on the platform behind Lady. Your tanks should get all the adds up near Lady so there is almost no travel time between adds and boss. Disfigured Fanatics are kited along the walls and are priority, as always. Because of the rapidity of the adds, Vampiric Might and Curse of Torpor need to be removed or dealt with ASAP.
Lady will Mind Control a single player every once in a while. Because every person has a lot to do in this fight, the key is to CC this person immediately so that the Mind Control and CC wear off close together... you don't want a non-MCed person stuck in an Freezing Trap for 8 seconds! A druid's Cyclone is perfect for this task, as is a Ret Paladin's Repentance. In our raid we have a Boomkin with great reflexes Cyclone people and stand on top of a hunter's Freezing Trap in case she gets Mind Controlled.
When Lady;s Mana Barrier breaks, all DPS has to stop while the tanks get threat and kite the boss to the opposite side of the room (where you came in). Since adds spawn during Phase 2, the tanks need to pick up the Fanatics and Adherants while they are killed. The extra space makes Ghosts easier to spot and avoid, which prevents their huge amount of damage (communication is key here; if a ghost is headed into melee the tanks need to know to move).
Minutiae: adds spawn much faster in Phase 1 and last longer. A single add spawns in Phase 2 that can be tanked and killed quickly. Tanks cannot taunt in Phase 2 and need to pull off each other the old fashioned way.
Difficulty: 4/10. A lot can go wrong in this fight, so coordination and communication is key. Having all 10 players alive makes the fight quite easy, so handle those Mind Controls.

Comment by defektunge

Well, we totaly forgot about this in our first 10man run, and still downed her with a single tank on the first attemp. It took us two deaths before we realized whats happening, but after that, we were able to manage. WTB more aggro dumps!

She is actually solo-tankable despite the debuff. I've tanked her with the debuff at -100% threat generated for most of the fight. Just get a decent head start early on.

The trick is that she's still tauntable, and that ranged DPS need 130% of the tank's threat to pull aggro. This means that if a ranged DPS pulls aggro (and they will, since the tank generates zero threat), the tank can taunt Deathwhisper before she has a chance to go anywhere. The tank will now have that DPSer's threat, which is 130% of the tank's previous threat, and the ranged DPS need to reach 130% of that to pull aggro again. As long as that doesn't take longer than the cooldown on taunt, and your melee DPS can avoid overaggroing, she's tankable by a single tank despite the constant -100% threat debuff.

As the fight goes on, you'll need to taunt less and less often, as your threat is increased by a percentage o your current threat for every "taunt cycle". The hard part is getting enough of a head start to reach the point where you don't lose aggro before taunt is off cooldown.

The easiest strategy is to simply have two tanks who taunt off each other to let the debuff fall off, but don't panic if one of your tank dies on phase three - she is solo-tankable!

Comment by 618603

I absolutly love this fight for one reason only, Viper Sting. I've developed a rotation that allows me to keep viper up as much as possible so I'am never oom and am even draining her mana while I'm at it. It helps that most of the raids I've got on don't have me help with the adds

Comment by Kannas

Downing this boss was...traumatizing, to say the least. I think the reason we wiped was because everyone's heads exploded from the constant yelling (well, either that or that we only had her down to 7% when she enraged)...A good tactic: turn of the game's sound for this fight. Not like she has any important voice emotes after the shield is down, and those show up as text anyway. We have found the ultimate shield to this boss! Mute!

Setting both our DK's, non-healer pally, and the Enhance shaman on the shield full time with everyone pitching in to damage it in-between add spawns on 25 man mode really helped down the shield fast enough on our second try, after some idiot told us to leave only 2 mages on the shield, claiming it worked. Needless to say, it didn't. This tactic really helps these classes use their real damage in a useful way, instead of it reflecting back and straining the heals to no end. Plus, the shield goes down much faster.
