Now that Icecrown Citadel has been fully unlocked,
allowing players the ability to progress in 10- and 25-player formats to
defeat the Lich King, new raid weekly quests have been unlocked! These
quests are specific to the Icecrown Citadel raid dungeon and do not
correspond with the standard random raid weekly quest offered in
Dalaran. Here's an overview of what you need to know.
One of five
quests will be randomly available each week in both 10- and 25-player
versions of the dungeon. This means each player has the opportunity to
complete two Icecrown Citadel raid weekly quests each week if the
dungeon is run in both versions, however, these quests have to be
completed within the raid version (10- or 25-player) in which they are
offered.
If a player obtains one of these quests but does not
complete it that week, the quest will automatically be removed from the
player's Quest Log the next time Lord Marrowgar is defeated under a new
raid ID, or when zoning into an instance with a new raid ID where Lord
Marrowgar has already been defeated. This only applies if the random
raid weekly offered when the player enters a fresh Icecrown Citadel raid
instance happens to be different from the one already in his or her
Quest Log. Players can otherwise simultaneously have both the 10- and
25-player raid weekly quests in their Quest Logs and complete either of
them at any time during the week in their respective raid versions. The
quests given each week in 10- and 25-player versions of Icecrown Citadel
will be randomly determined once Lord Morrowgar is killed, or once a
player zones into an instance where Lord Morrowgar has already been
killed.
The Quests:
- Deprogramming
- Look for a rogue named Infiltrator Minchar outside of Lady
Deathwhisper's chamber. He'll speak of a brainwashed operative who needs
saving from the lady's powerful means of influence. While engaging
Deathwhisper, keep an eye out for a warrior named Darnavan among her
minions. He must live if your raid group is to succeed in completing the
quest.
- Securing the Ramparts - After taking the
platform up to the ramparts from Lady Deathwhisper's chamber, a
lieutenant of your faction will seek your help in slaying the Rotting
Frost Giant on the other end of the ramparts terrorizing his troops.
Bring the monster down and return to the lieutenant for your reward.
- Residue Rendezvous - Should you succeed in
killing Deathbringer Saurfang, you will soon meet Alchemist Adrianna
upon lurking further into the citadel. She will task your group with the
unfortunate job of being infected by both a Green Residue from Rotface
and an Orange Residue from Festergut. While infected with both residues,
at least one player from the raid must speak with Alchemist Adrianna in
order for everyone in the group to receive credit.
- Blood Quickening - Outside the Crimson Hall
awaits Alrin the Agile to inform your group that his friend, Infiltrator
Minchar, has been captured by the San'layn for interrogation. Should
you choose to help in rescuing Minchar, you will have 30 minutes from
the moment you step foot in the Crimson Hall to kill Blood-Queen
Lana'thel before she executes him. Fortunate enough for you, she will
not kill Minchar if she is busy fighting your group.
- Respite for a Tormented Soul - If your group
can successfully free Valithria, she will morph into her humanoid form
to offer you a quest in a more approachable manner. Providing each
player who accepts the quest with a Pulsating Life Crystal, a channeling
device, Valithria will speak of a way to save Sindragosa's spirit.
Members of the raid who use these crystals on Sindragosa when she is
below 20% health will slowly stack on her the Life Infusion debuff.
Reaching 30 stacks (10-player) or 75 stacks (25-player) of Life Infusion
before she dies will provide the frost wyrm with an aura of Soul
Preservation. If your group manages to give Sindragosa this aura before
killing her, a quest item can be obtained from her remains to complete
Valithria's task.
The Reward:
Completing any of
these quests will reward each member of the group with a
Sack of
Frosty Treasures and a healthy chunk of gold. The sack
will contain
Emblems of
Frost and other potentially valuable items!
