Wrath of the Lich King (WotLK) Naxxramas (Naxx) Intro & Guide


Naxxramas once one of the hardest raids in WoW has returned once more in Wrath of the Lich King as one of the entry level raiding instances.

Naxxramas (more commonly known as Naxx) is made up of several sections, each following a slightly different thme, though all of them, unfortunately severely depressing when compared to some of the rather vibrant instances that appeared in the burning Crusade.

As I progress through these sections, bosses and trash mobs I will be updating each of the sections below with upto date information on how to down the bosses of Naxx in WotLK. The most interesting part of the new Naxx in WotLK is that Naxx can be completed in two versions, wither 10 or 25 man raid groups. This is a great advancement to raiding guilds in my opinion as it allows both small and large guilds to run the raid and get comparatively equal loot for the number of players!

The different areas available in the new Naxx are

  • Arachnid Quarter
Arachnid Quarter 10 Man Guides
Anub'Rekhan
Grand Widow Faerlina
Maexxna

Arachnid Quarter 25 Man Guides
Anub'Rekhan
Grand Widow Faerlina
Maexxna
  • Plague Quarter
Plague Quarter 10 Man Guides
Noth the Plaguebringer
Heigan the Unclean

Plague Quarter 25 Man Guides
Noth the Plaguebringer
Heigan the Unclean
  • Military Quarter

  • Construct Quarter
  • Frostwyrm Lair
I will shortly be updating these lists with both 10 and 25 man guides to the bosses in each particular area!

Guardian Spirit - My First Take

So I have jumped back into WoW and found a whole new host of spells at my disposal, most notably I found Guardian Spirit at the top of my talent tree, and dear god it kicks ass!

Guardain spirit is a healing spell which for 10 seconds ups the targetted players healing received by 40%!

But here is the clincher, the thing that made me oh so goddamn grateful I chose priest as my healing class. If the player reaches 0% haelth with this active he will be restored to 50% life, thi slittle thing is absolutely fantastic for any wow raid where you find yourself struggling to keep the tank up!

Of course my healing is still sub par after a break of nearly 6 months, I have been doing a few BGs to try and get some healing practice in, but of course I am now getting completely owned by all the arena geared players!

If anyone wants to run a few easy 70 instances on trollbane (EU) pass me a comment and we will get it sorted!

Return to WoW - The WRath of the Liche King

So the Wrath of the Liche King is about to break, and I ahve to admit after jumping back into WoW, suffering from that damn Unknown players error, jumping out and jumping back in again I have found myself playing a game I know NOTHING about!

This may sound like a bad thing, but it has sparked my interest once agian, new talents, new spels, merging of class types. it appears WoW Has changed, though for better or worse we will have to see.

For this reason you will soon start to see me posting updates to my guides, new walk throughs and when I finally get my head around the new character atributes begin posting advice on these as well.

I have had a quick mess about with my priest, and have to admit I am loving the talents, I have also started to level up a horde mage, something I keep meaning to do after I lost interest in my alliance one!

So I look forward to coming back soon with my reviews on World of Warcraft - the Wrath of the Liche King!
