Not final information by any means but, considering there was nothing here at all I figure what I learned on my last few runs might be useful to someone. This is as of beta build 8885.

Against roughly 21k armor his melee swings were hitting for about 4600 average, and he swings pretty fast. His special abilities as far as I saw:

1) Apparently has a disease which causes a healing debuff, although I was too busy to check debuff tooltips so I can't confirm this exactly, additionally we had a shaman with a disease cleansing totem out.

2) Casts "Bane", which is a melee-range reactive AOE centered around him. Appeared to tick for about 1500 shadow damage, and pulses every time he is struck in combat while Bane is active (which is around 10 seconds). While Bane is active he will still run around and attack players as usual, but as long as he is not attacked during this time Bane should do minimal damage. Anti-Magic Shell works to absorb damage if for some reason your group mates (or a dumb-AI pet like a Ghoul) won't stop attacking him.

3) Has a melee attack called something like Dark Strike (not too sure on this) which apparently halves your HP if hit. This can be dodged/parried/etc.

4) At certain intervals he will cause your party to cower in fear and run up to one of his boats to gain a special ability. The fear can be broken with trinkets, tremor totem, etc. allowing you to attack him while he's doing his boat ritual. As for the special ability he gains, I think it depends on which boat he visits which itself appears random. One time he summoned a couple of waves of weak non-elite ghosts, another causes pulsing white orbs to be summoned which should be avoided as they will repeatedly damage any player who stands near them.

His name is most likely based off Ymir. In Norse mythology, Ymir was the founder of the race of frost giants, and his corpse was used to build the world.

Commentaire de Pancake

Actually the real picture of what he looks like so far in beta is the second one posted by norrec. just some extra info.

Commentaire de 137993

hes scary, hes more realistic looking than all other humans in WoW.

Commentaire de Emopain

Okay, so since there doesn't seem to be much strat wise on this guy, here's what we had to deal with in Heroic mode:

He casts Bane, which is a short buff that will damage anyone who hits him while it's up, so you just want to leave him alone during that.

Also, every 20% he will stun your party and run to a boat.

The boat on the back right (if you're looking at his throne) makes him cast an aoe that hits your whole group for about 5k. You can't stop it, so you're just going to have to heal through it.

The boat that's on the front right of his throne didn't really seem to do anything, but we probably burned him too fast through it.

The boat on the front left of his throne will let him summon an orb that will spam tons of shadow damage in AoE around it. The orb is fairly slow and has a small range, so you just need to kite him away from it and burn him down.

The boat on the back left lets him summon 4 little minions, they go away when he phase changes and don't have much health anyway, so you can ignore them if you want.

The real challenge is making sure you get group heals for the 5k spam and making sure you stay far away from the AoE spamming orb.

Commentaire de 240627

Every time he goes to a new boat, he stuns everyone. PvP trinket to leave the stun early. This means your DPS get to kill it faster (especially during heroism etc). This is also useful for healers after the AoE phase.

Commentaire de 54899

You can Spell Steal Bane and I assume that you can dispell it.

Strat for Ymiron (Heroic):

He'll start off by hitting 4-5k on plate so the healer does have to watch out. He will also put up Bane which reflects 1400-1500 damage per attack to everyone within 10-15 yards. Your melee has to watch out for this. The best option imho is to have an enh sham because it's purgable and dispellable. If there is no dispel option, you'll just have to have your dps rein themselves in until it wears off.

After each 20% he'll run to a boat, gain a new ability and lose the last boat ability (he always hits for 4-5k and occasionally buffs himself with Bane). He'll also stun the whole group into a /cower, which can make for funny screenshots.

Abilities starting from the Back Left Boat going Clockwise if you're standing facing the throne.

- (Back Left) Allows King Ymiron to summon a flood of adds. On normal it's around 4, but on heroic it can be upwards of 10. Each hit from the adds stacks a 2% decrease in attributes debuff and they attack fairly quickly. I've seen this stack up to 20. My suggestion here is for the healer and dps to stack together (presumably right behind Ymiron) and for the dps to aoe them down (they're weak). You can also run to the tank but you run the risk of the tank's max health dropping below 20k since they'll instinctively thunderclap/lay down consec/swipe/DnD.

- (Front Left) Allows the summoning of a large crackling orb. Kite Ymiron away from it and you'll be fine, this is probably the easiest phase. If you don't it's a 5k aoe tick around it every 2-3 seconds.

- (Front Right) Gives Ymiron a stacking +damage modifier of +1000 damage (applied on the tank). This will stack up to 6 times as far as I've seen, meaning each of Ymiron's hits will do +6000 damage on top of however much it was before. I didn't have much trouble with this one where I thought I'd struggle, maybe the warr hit shield wall without saying anything. Ran this again with a prot pally specifically requesting him not to use pally shield wall, on paper it seems like a devastating ability but he didn't hit all that hard /shrug. If you have a crittable tank it may be an issue though.

- (Back Right) And lastly, this one houses the deadliest ability. A constant 4.5k aoe (resistable) every 4 seconds or so. Your healer is going to have some problems with this part regardless of class so blow all your cds and try to get through it as quickly as possible. Edit: I've had runs where this comes quick and heavy and runs where it isn't quite so bad, I'm not sure if it's just a really random cd. I believe it can also be outrangeable at somewhere around 30 yards, hard to tell because I run regularly with entirely melee groups. Edit: I don't think it's outrangeable, maybe someone can confirm either way.

This fight can be painful depending on your group make-up, namely if the healer is not very well geared and/or is a holy pally not quite used to using beacon (he/she will need it for this fight most likely for aoes) and too many melee dps get hit before the tank can kite Ymiron away from the orb.

The caveat to this boss is his hp is rather low. He has abilities on par with old T6 bosses but if your group's dps is high you can push him through phases fairly quickly before they even get to work.

Commentaire de 141882

It doesn't seem to be percent based so much as time based. In normal, Ymiron went down in 2:23 and never got to use his final boat.

Commentaire de 258646

btw, try not to damage him while he got Bane on him, its an Achievment King's Bane

Commentaire de Koumaru

Several times on heroic Ymiron's Bane has been bugged. He doesn't show a cast bar or a buff icon, but then BOOM! The melee and tank explode.

Not the only heroic boss with glitches. Hopefully this is cleared up soon.

Commentaire de 12376

Bane can be reflected.
Thats what I had last time:

04:26:23, King Ymiron's Bane hits King Ymiron for 6169 Shadow.
04:26:24, King Ymiron's Bane hits King Ymiron for 5708 Shadow.
04:26:24, King Ymiron's Spirit Burst hits King Ymiron for 4839 Shadow.
04:26:24, King Ymiron's Bane hits King Ymiron for 5737 Shadow.
04:26:26, King Ymiron's Bane hits King Ymiron for 6186 Shadow.
04:26:27, King Ymiron's Bane hits King Ymiron for 5670 Shadow.

Last reflect didnt show in combat log since King was dead.

I guess it's reflected from all party members with Improved Spell Reflection. Pretty nice damage in 4 sec. I love being a warrior in such moments :)

Commentaire de hargor

for all you hunters out there not sure if it'll work in heroic but tranquilising shot gets rid of bane when he casts it so you can use that and then nuke him agian only in normal mode though haven't tried in heroic

Commentaire de Rattja

Okey, I found a good, but tricky, way to tank this one as a Death knight today.
This will really help out a weak healer, or the tank if poorly geared, and is not hard at all once you get the hang of it.
What you do is build up some threat (best to have something other then the game one to keep track of the threat) and then wait for a bane. Once he start to cast bane, run to the opposite side of one of the boats and run back and forth so he is directly across from you at all times.
By doing this, he will not know which way to run and keep going back and forth together with you. The trick now is to keep having a rotation of frost strike going, with a few sec in between. This is to prevent him from evading and reset. Keep hitting him with frost and keep track of your threat, if it gets low, just swing at him a few times and go back to a boat.
Not sure if other tanks can do this, it's all about having a ranged attack to avoid evade reset.

Commentaire de Jamein

Not sure if he was bugged or what, but we never saw bane once during the fight in heroic :S
Made for an easy achievement tho!

Commentaire de Vlad

If you want to do simply have a lot of damage. Total party dps would have to be at 5663. Roughly that is 5663/3 ~= 1888 dps per person (assuming you got 3 dps, 1 healer and 1 tank). Considering tanks now do nice damage you could perhaps push it as much as 5663/4 ~= 1500 dps per person. Anyway simply nuke full out, if you got enough dps he won't get time to cast Bane at all!

If you lack damage, just do it slowly and avoid triggering him -it's your choice.

(Don't know why people down-rated this, I mean we did it just like this -full out nuke. And he never casted Bane...)

Commentaire de 226567

Query: Do Damage shield/Thorns trigger Bane?

In other words, can a warrior keep proccing it just by standing there?

Commentaire de 250679

Like the two previous bosses in the instance, Ymiron can be disarmed.

Commentaire de Murmurs

you know what would be awesome?
being able to pick/blow up that first gate and get some guildies their tanking sword in under 40+hours played time in Heroic UP.
that would be awesome.
yup

but then it would be cool if i could fart monkeys too.

Commentaire de Maliander

I'm counting only 4 epic loot drops on heroic with 20% drop chance each. Is there a chance for no epic loot on heroic, do people not bother looting epics, is there a drop missing or is there a chance to get zero epics?

King Ymiron's ship sails at dawn. He wonders what is for dinner.

Commentaire de Wisdomsword

King Ymiron is the king of the vrykul in Northrend and lies sleeping within Gjalerbron. His people, the Dragonflayer clan, are still fanatically loyal to him.
Having recently proven himself to the Lich King, he was converted to the undead and is the last boss of Utgarde Pinnacle.

Abilities
-----------

Bane: Surrounds King Ymiron with an aura that deals 1414-1586 (Heroic: 5k to 6k+) shadow damage to nearby enemies on every attack.

Dark Slash: Slashes current aggro target with darkness, dealing damage equal to 50% of targets total health.

Fetid Rot: Afflicts the target with a disease dealing 1414-1586 (Heroic: 2828 to 3172) damage every 3 seconds for 9 seconds and decreasing healing received by 25%.
Dispellable.

Screams of the Dead: Delivers a bone chilling scream stunning all party members for 8 seconds.

Spirit Burst: AoE. Deals 2357 to 2643 (Heroic: 4k to 5k+) damage to all targets. Only occurs when Ranulf's blessing is active.

Spirit Strike: Deals 925 to 1075 (Heroic: 4625 to 5375) damage to current target and increases physical damage done by 250 (Heroic: 1000). It is stackable, lasts 10 seconds, and only occurs when Haldor's blessing is active.

Tactics
---------

This fight requires little strategy but is still quite difficult, particularly in heroic.
The primary aspect of this fight is that he hits the tank VERY hard. His normal hits are for ~3k-5k and Dark Slash hits the tank for 50% of their health.
Occasionally, King Ymiron will cast Bane which causes shadow damage when he is attacked. All DPS need to stop attacking when Bane is up. It needs to be dispelled or spell stolen immediately so dps can resume.
He will also occasionally cast Fetid Rot on a random party member, which needs to be removed as quickly as possible.
Every 33% HP on normal, and every 20% on heroic, King Ymiron will cast Screams of the Dead, which stuns the entire party for 8 seconds(mages can blink out of this stun). He will then randomly run to one of the 4 longboats in the room and channel a spell from a Vrykul ancestor there. This will give him an additional ability for the next 33 or 20% of his life. After reaching the next 33/20% mark, the previous longboat will burn and that ability will end. Thus, Ymiron will call on two ancestors' blessings during his normal battle, and all four during his heroic battle.
With respect to Ymiron's throne, these boats do:
Near Left Boat (Haldor) - Gives the target the debuff Spirit Strike that increases damage taken. Will stack over time!
Near Right Boat (Bjorn) - Allows him to summon Spirit Fount, an orb that does AoE shadow damage and moves around the room slowly. Ymiron needs to be kited away from the Fount and party members need to stay away from it.
Far Left Boat (Ranulf) - Give him the ability to cast spirit burst, an AoE shadow nova for ~2k (Heroic: ~4-5k)
Far Right Boat (Tor) - Allows King Ymiron to summon 4 Avenging Spirit adds that can be AoE'd down.

Commentaire de 282650

Just my thought, the name "vrykul" may be a reference to "very cool"
Back to the boss, my first impression was that he hits very hard. When he reaches a boat he gets new spells, and casts a spell that stuns the whole party. He is the king of all vrykul and his wife, queen Angerboda is killable (she is found at Winter's Terrace at Gjalerbron, northern Howling fjord)

Commentaire de Arador

For you DKs out there: Do not ever use Army of the Dead on this fight. If they are up during Bane, your party will instantly take over 25k damage (5 ghouls * 5k damage).

Yes my group found this out the hard way.

Commentaire de 258919

This boss is cake if you have some decent heals.

Also, his stun can be trinked/abilitied out of (human racial/PvP trinkets/etc.) if you want to get a couple casts in.

Commentaire de 381500

He hits pretty hard but if u have a good healer and strong dps you should be fine. My group for regular UP was 2 Dks and 3 paladens and we had no problem with any of the bosses so as long as u have dps that can kill him quickly and a healer that can easly keep you alive you will be fine. By the way we had a level 80 for all except a 77 dps pally.

Commentaire de vortigern

How can you tell when Bane is up, other than the cast bar? Does he change color, do some obvious cast animation? I had a hard time keeping track of the the first time I fought him and I'm still not sure what to look for.

Commentaire de 345174

The boats of the spirits that Ymiron goes to at each 25% interval can be used kite King Ymiron. He will walk around them if he's targeting someone around the boat and will not go through or on top of them. Earlier in H UP, when our tank died at 35%, I kited the boss around the boats until he was at 25%. Took enough time for my Mirror Image to come back up and after the stun wore off we burst him heavily.

Since 3.3.3, he appears to emote occasionally, during his soul transfer or whatever the hell that is.

Kind of shocking, since previous to this most groups would only hear his aggro and death quote. And maybe some grunts if he fell through the floor.

King Ymiron is using Tier 10 Warrior Shoulder as a codpiece.

Commentaire de 233332

Soloable by a feral druid in 4.0 on heroic. Kite him away from his boats to give yourself more time to heal after each stun, and make sure you stop attacking during Bane (that's a good time to hit defensive CDs, since you won't be getting Savage Defense procs). You can ignore the adds, they are weak and they go away when he runs to the next boat.

Commentaire de Xantin

Every time I've encountered him, He's had 404k health. So, his health could not be found?

Commentaire de 664324

I attempted to solo this fight on heroic mode as a level 85 prot pally (119k hp), got him to 50% and had to kite him like mad, ended up despawning him by mistake slightly below 50% while kiting too the ramp.

The thing that mad it somewhat impossible to solo was the fact that the spirits which seem to forever respawn, do somewhat decent damage, but at the same time stack a debuff which reduces all ur stats. By the time the boss despawned i was at about 5% hp and my stats were reduced by 100%...the stack was at 50.

Because of said above debuff, im not sure this boss can be soloed in current Cata gear.

Commentaire de Mattyo

I was able to solo this relatively easily on an 85 frost mage. I used time warp at the beginning and deep freeze on cooldown to do masive damage. I didn't have a problem with the attribute curse since I could remove it from myself, but I think I would have done fine without decursing it as I only received this once.

I was wearing mostly the blue PvP set, iLvl 344 so it should be doable with decent gear, the key is to take his health down quickly with deep freeze and frostbolt spam.

Commentaire de 426853

Without using any dispels, I was able to solo this boss as a raid-geared protadin. Largest issue will be bane, which can quickly drain your health if you don't run away from the boss. Nevertheless, with proper C/D use and good judgement this guy can be solo'd, making this entire instance a 1-man job for tanks.

Commentaire de 148531

Had fun soloing this as a ilvl340 fury warrior. Popped enraged rejuvenation half way through just to top health up in between his stuns. Nice and easy.

Commentaire de forbjok

Soloed as tank-specced Feral Druid.
By far the hardest boss to solo in UP. (with Skadi in second place)

I had to delay him by running him around the corners of the statues to allow healing myself, and trying to make him go as far away as possible when changing phases.
Every time he used bane, I took the chance to run away from him a bit and cast a few lifeblooms, before going back into bear form and continuing to hit him after bane wore off.

Commentaire de Esploratore

Lol, soloed as a bad geared level 85 arms tauren warrior, with about 103k hp, 17-18k armor, 1.100 damage per second, and 319 average item level.

The first two attempts I got killed when he still had 100k hp.

The third attempt I was luckier, as he used a minor number of those hits that remove the half of the current hp, I still had about 30k hp, and he was just under 100, so i concentrated on damage, with colossus smash, slams, overpowers, and executes, and we died together, lol; I had to loot him 5 minutes later.

Of course, i used a 26k healing bandage, and the enraged regeneration.

He didn't even spawn his spirits; usually they were very useful, as I killed one, and then shot victory rush to the boss, healing myself by over 29k hp, then killed the other one and shot victory rush to the boss.

By the way: excellent loot: two blue items with about 10 gold value each one, crown of forgotten kings, ancient royal legguards, about 1.900 armor and other effects.

Commentaire de Towerarcher

I soloed him as a hunter.It was so ez mode for me.

Commentaire de TheRealLink

No problem here on regular mode as 83 Fury Warrior. Likewise, regenerated halfway through the fight as he started hitting me hard. Not too bad. It also seems that you can use victory rush healing on the ghosts he brings up.

Commentaire de crawdad7

Just finished this with a 85 fury warrior on normal. What a blast. The King had me down to 20% health. Just kept running to the corners and not attacking when bane was up. Every man for himself and rage regeneration was the key.

Commentaire de verduran

For those of you tanks trying to farm the sword for transmogrification in 4.3, it would be much easier to just switch over to DPS spec for this boss, seeing that his dark slash does damage proportional to your health.

Originally I brought my newly 85 warrior alt (ilvl 369) over for the mount, but then I decided to give it a try. On my first try I took him down to 5% with my tank spec, then I switched over to DPS and it was a lot easier as he was just busy running around for the boats and barely had time to attack me.

I was very lucky to have the sword dropped on my first kill, but then I'll have to keep going back for the mount anyway.
Good luck to those that are still hunting.

Commentaire de 938647

What is odd is that he is undead, unlike his peers. Also he seems to look rather alive.

For me (85 MM hunter) this was by far the easiest of all the bosses in this instance on the heroic setting. I just stood in the middle of the area, shooting and occasionally healing my pet as it followed the boss around the room.
