Heroic

'''Heroic''' is a term used throughout Wrath of the Lich King to identify content, difficulty levels or equipment classifications that are above normal progression.

Its exact meaning depends on the context in which it appears.

Heroic Dungeons

At Level 80, many Wrath dungeons can be completed on Heroic difficulty.

Heroic dungeons normally feature:

• stronger enemies
• stronger bosses
• improved rewards
• endgame progression
• increased difficulty

Heroic Raids

Certain Wrath raid content also includes Heroic difficulty.

Important examples include:

• Trial of the Crusader
• Icecrown Citadel
• Ruby Sanctum

Heroic Equipment

On FrozenThrone, custom items may also use the Heroic designation as part of their server-specific classification.

One example is:

Shroud of the Frozen Throne

The Shroud is a custom FrozenThrone Original identified as Heroic equipment.

Normal vs Heroic

Heroic generally indicates a stronger or more advanced version of content.

However, the exact mechanics depend on whether the term refers to:

• a dungeon
• a raid
• an item
• custom FrozenThrone content

FrozenThrone Originals

Custom Heroic equipment should be documented according to its actual server statistics rather than assuming it matches a standard Blizzard item.

See FrozenThrone Original.
