No King Rules Forever, Mon
After a lot of attempts over the past few weeks (and I do mean a lot, mon), and a poorly implemented (at least in my opinion) and unannounced change last week, The Lich King finally fell to Monolith last night.
We’ve “beaten” this expansion.
Yes, we still have hard modes to work on, but when such an iconic villain as The Lich King, even normal mode, falls beneath the combined might of your steel and magic, you feel a sense of closure. And make no mistake, Arthas is one of the most iconic and best villains in Warcraft lore. More so than Ragnaros, any dragon (even Deathwing!), old god, or even Illidan.
At least to me.
He is like the Darth Vader of Warcraft lore, a young and promising lad with the power and drive to do anything to save those he loves and who goes to far. He just can’t overcome the darkness within him and finally succumbs to it. I’m a sucker for good guy gone bad stories.
Good luck to all still working on him. It truly is the most epic fight in the game to date.
Taz’Dingo!

I really was a great fight!
I’m glad it’s over, but the journey there was a lot of fun đŸ™‚
I agree, that regardless of what struggles we face with our hard modes, we’ve kicked ass this expansion.
(um…and excuse me, you have an achivement for killing Mr. Bigglesworth?!?! There is an achievement for that now?! /flies to Naxx).

Indeed. I was glad to be there with you and Monolith when he fell.
Uh, I think killing Mr Bigglesworth is just a tracked statistic, no achievement that I know of. I blame Even for me even (see what I did there?!) having it đŸ™‚
