Instructor Chillheart

Instructor Chillheart is the first boss in Scholomance. She can be found in the Reliquary.

Course: Introduction to the Dark Arts

''Instructor Chillheart journeyed from Northrend to teach aspiring necromancers discipline, harshly punishing those who disappoint her. She commands the icy chill of the north and masterfully uses Scholomance's libraries to deadly effect.''

When Instructor Chillheart's physical body dies, the foul magic that animated her escapes back to.

Fragments of Instructor Chillheart's soul escape the phylactery and animate the tomes of magic scattered throughout the classroom.

Don't worry about clearing the room unless XP is desired - as starting the fight will kill all of the humanoid mobs. The Risen Guards should be killed, though, as they will survive the initial blast.

Chillheart starts the fight by casting Ice Wave: The ice spreads from the east end of the room, bringing instant death for players who touch it. The wall moves at a pace that gives players roughly two minutes to kill the lich and move the encounter to phase two. Ice does appear on the stairs and the area under the stairs, so escape is not an option. The stair-side ice does not hit as hard as the main ice wall, so if time is about to run out, move the party into the western ice on or under the stairs.

Several untargetable books appear in the room, moving about randomly. The fire books move in fixed looping paths, so look for a path and stay out of it. The arcane books move about randomly and also follow players—move out of explosion before it reaches the ground. The shadow books are stationary, but attack all targets in the room with shadow bolts.

Quickly burn down the phylactery—it has no attacks of its own—to complete the encounter before the books wear out the healer. There is no need for a tank in the second phase, so he or she should shift to DPS mode to help kill the phylactery.

Instructor Chillheart's living form, here named HS Instructor Fireheart, appears as a legendary Shaman card in the Scholomance Academy expansion for Hearthstone. Her flavor text reads: "When you have fire in your heart, even death can't stop you."

• Despite the description from the dungeon journal about the ice wall instantly killing any player it touches, it has been proved that in the actual beta build the ice walls deals heavy, but non-lethal frost damage, and it's possible to run through the wall without dying. whether this is a bug or a mistake in the Journal's description its unknown.
