||
| − | '''Naxxramas''' was originally a 40-man raid [[instance]] floating above the [[Eastern Plaguelands]]. It has the shape of a [[necropolis]] and has the questionable honor to serve as the seat of one of the [[Lich King]]'s most powerful officers, the dreaded [[lich]] [[Kel'Thuzad]]. |

||
| − | The instance was regarded as the most difficult before the release of Burning Crusade, and should not be attempted without at least 40 well-equipped (preferably [[Tier 2]] or [[Brood of Nozdormu set|Tier 2.5]] armor) players. Naxxramas is also the home of many of the most powerful items of the pre-BC era, and 60+ quests with rewards such as {{loot|legendary|Atiesh, Greatstaff of the Guardian}} and all Tier 3 items available in the game. With the release of [[The Burning Crusade]], finishing this instance still required 25-30 well-equipped level 70 players. The dungeon was added in [[patch 1.11]], making it the last non-expansion instance added to the core game as well as the last 40 man instance. |

||
| − | In the ''[[World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King]]'' expansion, Naxxramas was moved to [[Northrend]] and retuned to be the introductory level 80 raid dungeon. Like all other [[Wrath of the Lich King|Wrath]] raid dungeons, Naxxramas has both 10-man and 25-man versions.<ref>http://www.egames.de/?ren=news_detail&news_id=65631</ref> |
||
| − | |||
| − | The move is claimed by some to not be a retcon, but a progression of the storyline. Naxxramas was indeed in the [[Eastern Plaguelands]], but after Kel'Thuzad's phylactery was given to the treacherous [[Father Inigo Montoy]], the lich was able to revive himself and make the transition along with his fortress. While at least [[Alexandros Mograine|one boss]] will not be returning in the new Naxxramas, there is no explanation yet as how the other bosses "survived" destruction during the original campaign led by the Argent Dawn. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ==Gaining entry== |
||
| − | [[Image:BlackCitadel.png|thumb|The Necropolis model]] |
||
| − | To enter Naxxramas, you must become attuned through the [[Argent Dawn]] by completing {{questlong|neutral|60|The Dread Citadel - Naxxramas}}, whose cost varies based on reputation level. |

||

| − | If you choose to become exalted with the [[Argent Dawn]], you can complete the attunement for free; however, this requires a great deal of work. The reputation reward for the entrance quest is 1000 rep for a character currently Revered. |

| − | === Teleport spire=== |
||
| − | |||
| − | The teleport spire in the middle of the [[Plaguewood]] {{coords|39|26|Eastern Plaguelands}} is the only way into Naxxramas. After becoming attuned, one must step onto the runic circle in the center of the spire to teleport into Naxxramas' center chamber. In [[Patch 3.0.2]], the entire structure was replaced by the addition of another [[Plague cauldron]]. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ==Dungeon information== |
||
| − | Although glimpses of snowy terrain can be seen out the windows in each corner of Kel'thuzad's room, it is important to note that his chamber is still within Naxxramas. What you are seeing out those windows is [[Northrend]], through portals from which [[Scourge]] emerge during the encounter. |

||
| − | |||
| − | === Structure === |
||
| − | Naxxramas is structured like a giant wheel. Players enter at the center of the Necropolis, and then choose one of four wings to progress through: |
||
| − | |||
| − | ==== Abomination Wing ==== |
||
| − | * This wing is filled with [[Abomination]]s, of course. It is likely to be the most physically intensive wing, as Abominations are known to hit rather hard. The Slimes there deal heavy nature damage, too. The final boss is the "Frankenstein's Monster"-esque [[Thaddius]]. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ==== Plague Wing ==== |
||
| − | * In this wing players will have to deal with various diseases. Creatures known to populate this wing include [[bat]]s, [[gargoyle]]s, [[Bog Beast|bog beast]]s, [[ooze]]s, and [[Ghoul]]s. The final boss is [[Loatheb (original)]], some sort of fungal monster. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ==== Spider Wing ==== |
||
| − | * This wing contains loads of [[spider]]s, as well as [[Nerubian]]s and few acolytes. The final boss is [[Maexxna]], the giant spider. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ==== Deathknight Wing ==== |
||
| − | * This wing is loaded with [[Deathknight]]s, known for their combination of powerful shadow magic and raw melee skills. The final bosses are the [[Four Horsemen]]. One of the Four Horsemen is Highlord Mograine, who has an important role in the Ashbringer quest, which should be obtainable after you acquire the [[Corrupted Ashbringer]] from Mograine. The Four Horsemen are considered the hardest bosses in the instance until [[Kel'Thuzad]]. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ==== Frostwyrm Lair ==== |
||
| − | * Once the final bosses of the four wings are defeated, players will gain access to the final "wing" of Naxxramas, in which they will encounter the [[Frost Wyrm]] [[Sapphiron]], and the [[lich]] [[Kel'Thuzad]]. |
||
| − | |||
| − | === Progress === |
||
| − | Each boss drops a different quest token for [[Tier 3]] sets. Each boss and its drops are listed in the boss section below. |
||
| − | |||
| − | On the wall of each boss chamber and various places are some [[Frozen Rune]] objects, which requires a Word of Thawing (a tradeable drop from trash mobs) to defrost. Defrosting a Frozen Rune yields a number (4-6) of tradeable blue "Frozen Rune" items that are used in crafting frost resistance gear. Frozen Runes are also consumables, behaving like Greater Fire Protection potions (1500-2500 fire damage absorbed for 1 hour). Due to the high quality and projected need as reagents for the craftable Frost Resist recipes, it is not advisable to use these runes as consumables. |
||
| − | |||
| − | You have to beat the last boss in each wing to progress. Once you beat all four wings, you get a chance to fight Sapphiron. After you beat Sapphiron you may challenge Kel'Thuzad. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ==Encounters and bosses== |
||
| − | [[Image:Naxxramas-1.jpg|thumb|Naxxramas floating above the [[Plaguewood]]]] |
||
| − | [[Image:Naxx1.jpg|thumb|Interior of Naxxramas]] |
||
| − | Below is the full list of bosses (in parentheses are the [[Tier 3]] armor part the boss drops quest item for). |
||
| − | |||
| − | There are fifteen boss encounters in Naxxramas. First full Naxx clear was done by the Horde guild [[Guild:Nihilum (Magtheridon EU)|Nihilum]] on Magtheridon (EU) on September 7, 2006 (two and one-half months after Naxx came out on June 20th 2006). |
||
| − | |||
| − | The easiest wing is the Spider Wing, Instructor Razuvious being the easiest boss (arguably comparable to Grobbulus, but Grobbulus sits behind a major [[gear check]]: Patchwerk). The Plague Wing bosses [[Noth]] and [[Heigan]] are on a similar level of difficulty of Anub'Rekhan, but in different aspects (Heigan is VERY difficult in the individual coordination aspect). Abomination wing bosses are in the middle (with the exception of very easy [[Grobbulus]]), [[Patchwerk]] is commonly conceived as a hard [[gear check]] and healer's fight. The most difficult bosses, in order of rising difficulty, are [[Thaddius]], [[Loatheb (original)]], [[Gothik the Harvester]] and Four Horsemen. (Thus, the wings below are listed in rising order of difficulty to fully clear.) |

| − | ==Resistances== |
||
| − | [[Image:Naxx2.jpg|thumb|All sorts of undead monstrosities roam the halls of Naxxramas.]] |
||
| − | |||
| − | ===Nature=== |
||
| − | The beginning parts of 3 of the 4 wings (Plague, Spider, and Abomination) are rich in Nature damage. This is good news for players who built up their nature resistance gear in [[Ahn'Qiraj]]. |
||
| − | |||
| − | === Frost === |
||
| − | Players will need a lot of frost resistance to fight the final bosses in Naxxramas. [[Kel'Thuzad]] is a lich, but does not require a lot of frost resistance to defeat him. The [[Sapphiron]] encounter requires a very significant amount of Frost Resistance (150-200), but is NOT frost-based like Ragnaros is fire-based. Frost resistance gear has proven to be rather scarce thus far, luckily, the [[Argent Dawn]] has made available several armor patterns that provide considerable frost resistance and bosses in Naxxramas drop very high quality epic frost resistance pieces. |
||
| − | |||
| − | === Shadow === |
||
| − | Shadow is the third major resistance required. [[Death Knight]]s and [[Necromancer]]s use powerful shadow magic, and Kel'Thuzad has a few shadow spells as well. The final boss in the Plague wing, [[Loatheb (original)]], uses shadow based damage also. Shadow resist gear can be found scattered throughout various instances, so this shouldn't be a problem. |
||
| − | |||
| − | === Fire === |
||
| − | Certain bosses encounters need some fire resistance, like [[Grand Widow Faerlina]] and the [[Four Horsemen]]. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ==Loot== |
||
| − | Naxxramas loot included the [[Tier 3]] raid set. |
