A 2% wipe on our very first pull says we can kill this one quickly.  

Prios remain the Banners/Healing Tide totems, Warshaman & Arcmages (and not standing in whiling blades!).

Are we sticking to the "ignore everything but banner/totem & shaman/arcveawers" during zerker stance?

It seemed to work as it should last night..

*Arcweavers not Arcmages!  :blush:

Generally yes, but we need to be aware of location of the totem (not in range of boss) and Arcane Shock (http://www.wowhead.com/spell=143432) damage can be very high if they are left to spam it and stack their self-buff.   Personally for 6m HP I'd rather take the 6-7 seconds to kill them to avoid a nasty death.

As I was saying, we'd ignore everything except totems, banners, shaman, and arcweavers. ;)

That'll teach me to read it properly!

If we're running the same type of comp next time (only 1 melee), it might be worth it to just leave that melee sitting on the boss through zerker and battle stance, since most of the time I would arrive at the add only to have it die a short while later. It really doesn't seem like our add dps is low enough that we'd need to pull melee off the boss, except for defensive stance obviously.

Healing seemed quite light on this. If we need to eek out more dps 2 Healing may be possible at a push but would pref 3 for for safety.

A half way house might be to get Smiz to go smite for the fight, especially during Berserker Stance.

Would not be any problem to smite heal at times in the fight, but are times where some heavy healing is required.
But with a little Shadow gear can be made both heal and dps.

SMIZ

2 healed this last night and it worked much better.

Anecdotally, we need to focus on the boss during Beserker and leave the tank to tank the adds.   The extra DPS really helps us.
