Icecrown Citadel has been out for eightmonths now, and with the availability of i264 emblem gear and the 30 percent zone buff, it’s become accessible to raiders with a wide range of experience. Some players have downed the bosses 100+ times on various alts, and other players may be just starting out.

Regardless of your experience level, there are always interesting tricks about the fights that people learn over the course of time. Here are 32 of them.

  • Warlocks, time your Seed of Corruption to hit as Bone Spike cast ends, and if everyone’s stacked correctly in melee range, you’ll be top damage on Bone Spikes.
  • During Bone Storm casts, tanks should run to be farthest away from center of raid. Some 90 percent of the time, he’ll target the farthest person away to move to.
  • Any time you have to split your DPS into two groups (whether it’s Thaddius or adds on Lady D or Valithria), an easy way to get balance is to go through Recount by damage done and put Nos. 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13 and 15 on damage done on one side and the rest on the other side.
  • Spellsteal or Purge the Vampiric Might on fanatics.
  • Boomkin rooting for Darnavan works especially well, but note that he’s immune to Cyclone.

Here at WoW.com, we’re on a Daily Quest (which we try to do every day, honest) to bring you interesting, informative and entertaining WoW-related links from around the blogosphere.

I pretty much fell in love with my current guild the moment I joined it. In the six (nearly seven now, isn’t it?) years I’ve been playing World of Warcraft, I’ve belonged to very, very few guilds, and there’s a reason for that — once I find one I like, I stick with it. Despite belonging to only a handful of guilds in my WoW lifetime, I’ve run the gamut from casual to hardcore raiding to RP to casual raiding. Each guild was run a little differently, and each guild had its own methods of recruiting. Today we’ve got a handful of posts about guilds:


Is there a story out there we ought to link or a blog we should be following? Just leave us a comment, and you may see it here tomorrow! Be sure to check out our WoW Resources Guide for more WoW-related sites.

Roblinator may not work for the Venture Company, but this sure shows that the rest of the goblins aren’t exactly environment-friendly. Putting rockets on chickens seems a bit irresponsible.
