These are the tactics that Paragon used on their first Lich King kill 26.3.2010. That week we had the 5% increased healing/health/damage buff active. Patch 3.3.3 had come out on previous Wednesday. The patch provided dps buffs to some classes (like frost death knight and moonkin) as well as it buffed priest shields and gave the 5% damage bonus to pets.
Basic stats on the encounter:
Lich King: 103,9M hitpoints (dies at 10%)
Val’kyr Shadowguards: 3M hitpoints

It has now been over a month since our first normal-mode Lich King 25-player kill and more than 4 weeks from the beginning of the hard-mode race. Most of the information in this article is somewhat old, but we felt like we wanted to talk about what happened exactly in Icecrown Citadel especially on our first reset there. The following article will feature a lot of personal opinions.
Who are the Mythbusters? Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman - between them they have over 30 years of special effects experience. And we also didn’t get them to do an episode. We tried to pool money together for hiring them, but 7,20€ and 400,000 Zimbabwean dollars weren’t enough for the greedy bastards.
I woke up probably at the same second Arthas died for the first time in 10-man. Some of our members had stayed up and watched various streams from Sindragosa and Arthas to be prepared better for the next day. The best Sindragosa attempt I personally saw was somewhere around 10%.
