According to the <a href="http://blue.mmo-champion.com/12/15659707099-updated-ulduar-test-schedule-mar-10.html" target="_blank"><b>schedule</b></a> this isn&#39;t cancelled. <br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/news/2009/february/freya.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/news/2009/february/freya_small2.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a></div><br /><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><b>Streams</b></span><br />Not yet!<br /><br /><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><b>Boss info</b></span><br /><ul style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0;"><li><b>Health</b> - 1,394,500 (Normal) / 4,183,000 (Heroic)</li><li><b>Mana</b> - 234,190 (Normal) / ? (Heroic)</li></ul><br />The fight takes place in a lush, oasis like valley inside Ulduar. There are three Elder boss-tree mobs you can choose to kill or not, appearantly they are similiar to Sartharion&#39;s hard mode if you choose not to kill them the fight gets considerably harder as each elder buffs Freya and her adds.<br /><ul style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0;"><li>Elder Brightleaf - The essence of Elder Brightleaf increases Magic damage dealt by Freya and her Allies of Nature by 50%. </li><li>Elder Ironbranch - The essence of Elder Stonebark increases physical damage dealt by Freya by 50%. </li><li>Elder Stonebark - The essence of Elder Ironbranch increases Physical damage dealt by Allies of Nature by 50%. </li></ul><br />As you engage Freya, she will spawn multiple adds and start healing herself. She starts the fight with 150 stacks of a buff increasing healing on her by 4% (=600% at the beginning of the fight), a stack is removed everytime one of the add she spawns is killed. <br /><br /><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><b>Abilities</b></span><br /><b>Freya</b> 4,183,000HP (25-Man) / 1,394,500HP (10-Man)<br /><ul style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0;"><li><b>Nature&#39;s Fury</b> - Infects an enemy for 10 sec, causing it to inflict 4625 to 5375 Nature damage to its nearby allies every 1 sec. (10-Man: 2035 to 2365 damage)</li><li><b>Sunbeam</b> -- Inflicts 10638 to 12362 Nature damage to enemies within 8 yards of the target. 1.5 cast. (10-Man: 7863 to 9137 damage)</li><li><b>Touch of Eonar</b> -- The presence of the Lifebinder heals Freya for 24000 health every 1 sec. (10-Man: 6000 health every 1 sec.)</li><li><b>Attuned to Nature</b> (x150) - Increases healing received by 4%.</li><li><b>Photosynthesis</b> -- The rays of the sun heals the plant life for 10000 damage every 1 sec. (These will spawn during the fight, make sure you kite the adds out of them to prevent them from healing)</li></ul><br />During the fight she will also spawns 3 extra adds at the same time (Storm Lasher, Stone Lasher, Ancient Water Elemental), they have roughly 1M HP each and you have to kill them all 3 at the same time, otherwise they will just revive. Killing one of these adds will remove 10 stacks of healing from Freya. <br /><br />She will also spawn a bigger add at some point, an Ancient Protector with 1,9M HP. Just off-tank him and kill him to remove 25 stacks from Freya. He also uses Conservator&#39;s Grip to silence members of the raid, stay under the Healthy Mushrooms in the zone to remove this debuff.<br /><ul style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0;"><li>Conservator&#39;s Grip -- The grip of the Protector prevents attacking and casting spells.</li></ul><br />When Freya finally runs out of "Attuned to Nature" stacks, just start DPSing her while you keep killing the tree adds she spawns (they will heal her for 15% after 10 seconds if you don&#39;t kill them). Lower her life to 0 and she will become friendly again, loot the chest next to her for tons of epic loot! <br /><br /><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><b>Loot Table</b></span><br /><div align="center"><style>tr.lootline1:hover, tr.lootline2:hover {background:#d6ffb2;}.lootline1 {background-color:#ebebeb;}.lootline2 {background-color:#FFFFFF;}</style><table class="sortable" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="1" style="border: 1px solid #0070DD"><tr bgcolor="#96BC27"><td width="30"><b>ilvl</b></td><td width="75"><b>Type</b></td><td width="75"><b>Slot</b></td><td width="250"><b>Item</b></td><td width="165"><b>Boss</b></td></tr><tr class="lootline1"><td>226</td><td>Shields</td><td>Off Hand</td><td><a href="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/news/2009/march/items/items_127.jpg" target="_blank" rel="item=45450"><b>Arena Tournament: Current Standings</b></font><br />Current Standings for both americans and european arena tournaments were published on official forums earlier.
