Overview
History
At the Argent Tournament in Icecrown, Highlord Tirion Fordring is looking for the champions who will lead the assault on the Lich King. In the Crusaders' Coliseum, heroes face beasts of Northrend, a demon lord, the champions of the opposing faction and two val'kyr in the Scourge's service in turn. The Lich King himself ends the tournament: he shatters the coliseum floor and sends the heroes plunging into the depths, face to face with Anub'arak.
Access
The entrance is in Icecrown, in the Argent Tournament Grounds, at the heart of the coliseum. The raid exists in a 10-player and a 25-player version, each with its own loot, and is restricted to level 80 characters.
Heroic Mode
Heroic mode unlocks once the raid has been cleared in normal mode, in the same size. The group has 50 attempts: each wipe on a boss costs one. After Anub'arak's death, the tribute chest holds richer loot the more attempts remain; with all 50 attempts intact, it also contains a mount in the 10-player version.
Loot
Every item comes in two versions, one for the Alliance and one for the Horde: the loot's Alliance | Horde button shows the one for your faction.
