The second tank's armor and avoidance are ignored so they can equip exclusively stamina and shadow resistance items to make things easier. After 3 seconds in combat, Blood-Queen Lana'thel will link the main tank to the closest player next to them with the Blood Mirror debuff, mirroring 100% of the damage done to the main tank to the second tank in the form of shadow damage. The Blood-Queen Lana'thel encounter is a 2-phase fight, although 90% of the battle will consist of her standard ground phase while her more dangerous air phase will only last for 12 seconds every 100 seconds.īlood-Queen Lana'thel is technically a 2-tank encounter, however, the second tank only acts as a literal blood bag sharing the damage of the main tank, with no specific job. Thankfully, the Vampiric Bite mechanic, paired with good planning, should give your raid the damage steroid needed to end the fight before she enrages.

You will have only 5:30 minutes to burn through the immense HP pool of the Queen, second only to The Lich King himself, all the while surviving the raid pressure of her shadow-based AoEs. Blood-Queen Lana'thel is the final boss of the Crimson Hall wing of Icecrown Citadel and one of the most challenging DPS races of the raid.
