Lich king memorial

Unread post by Zangor »

okay not many people know of this but after you kill the lich king your server gets a monument that replaces the fountain in the middle of dalaran i took some before and after screenshots

on a slightly larger not reading the plaque plays the ending cinimatic from ICC

Seriously? That is really cool. And everyone sees it, yes, not just people who killed him?

Yep, that's kind of cool...

I love it when Blizzard does something like that.

Ugh, spoilers.

UGH, I will miss that fountain.

Yay, my server sucks and no one's killed Arthas yet. :P

Wait.

This is from killing REGULAR Arthas, not heroic?

Wow. O_o

Well, it is technically a spoiler, because you are revealing something that changes in the game that not everyone knows about. I didn't know that fountain was going to be replaced with golden statues after Arthas dies, thus, I am spoiled to the occurance. ;P
But I don't care. It's not a huge spoiler, and it gave me advance warning to the loss of a pretty fountain.

It's not like I'll be around to see the actual death of the Lich King...one of our top two raider guilds on our server will probably get it soon, but since I don't raid.... So it's not really a spoiler for me, I'll just log in one day and HEY...it's not the same!

Very cool though, I guess we'll know the moment he goes down the first time then :D

Just to add that it's the first 25m kill, not 10m. I saw a kingslayer title before the fountain went up on Monday on my server. ^_^

No...it's server first, 10 or 25. I know this because Feathermoon got its new statue on Sunday night, from an Alliance guild that took 2 separate 10-mans in and downed Arthas at about the same time.

And congratulations to <Chaos> for that kill, by the way. :D

Having seen the fountain "in person," as it were...my characters think it's the gaudiest thing they've ever seen. :lol:

Oh hmm....weird. Cause we didn't get our fountain until a day later, at least. (I ran over and checked the second I saw the guy with the title and it was still the old fountain.) Maybe it was bugged on our server or something....

Well, cool, glad that Blizzard is recognizing the 10ms equally!
