Paladin, DK, or Bear in that order. They're all pretty frickin' strong though. Bears just through their scaling, DKs when they reach a certain multistrike rating, or Paladin when they get their trinkets and 4 piece.
If you want a guaranteed progression spot for mythic, DK is highly recommended whether you tank or not. All you have to really do is know how to press your Gorefiend button properly.
You can have situations where TMI is lower, but your average DTPS is higher. This is generally preferable for healers, since you're not constantly spiking down to 20% hp as much. You might take more damage overall, but it is predictable and easily handled.
My guild is currently progressing on Mythic Tyrant Velhari.
In terms of survivability, do I want to be using the Purified Shard of the Moon over Heroic Anzu's + HWF+S Warlord's Unseeing Eye?
On logs it seemed like the eye passively did a lot of work for me and wondering if I was perfect in timing the shard every 30 sec, if it would be more beneficial than the constant 20% reduced dmg?
I would say over the course of a 4:30 sec wipe the Eye did 1.18m in absorbs. Assuming the shield is timed perfectly, it could technically do more absorbs but I feel like I would be spiky in P2.
Idk, not sure.
Also one more question....
Do I want to go with another weapon enchant for that fight to help out as well?
I'm currently using Mark of the Blackrock and was wondering if the proc still happened when you're in p2 with the health differential? Would it be more beneficial to enchant Crit or Mastery onto the weapon instead or no?
I've also heard that Second Wind is better than Enraged Regen on that fight because of the health reduction debuff. I'm not sure if that is true either but figured i'd throw that in as well.
Thanks for your help!

Eye and Plume are by far the best trinket choices for that fight. Definitely don't use the heirloom trinket over either of those.
Enchant your weapon with Thunderlord. It will have a much higher uptime than Blockrock and will be better for survivability and DPS overall.
As for Second Wind, Velhari is the only fight were it could be viable, but I'd still use Enraged Regen, because if you ever drop below 35% health you're going to be healed up pretty quickly or you'll just die.
What trinkets overall nowadays(max dmg)? i got every HFC mythic trinket except velhari one (taint rat trinket anyways).
Edit; i also seem to find alot of people going haste(??) whats the deal with that?
Been out of the loop for a few months so, and not much has been said in here :/
I depends on how fast you're pushing and when you hero, but generally ring is used on pull and then with Hero in P2 or right as she transitions to P3 so you can stay alive with the low health you have.
For pure DPS, EDH + UH. EDH + ToTT for speed kills.
When you say people are going haste, do you mean equipping gear with haste? Because I've never seen anyone enchant/gem for haste. In regards to using gear with haste, it's because haste tends to be on the higher iLvl pieces and those pieces are best for maximizing DPS.
Refering to:
I simmed my char with multiple different setups, 2p/4p/0p, different trinkets and so on, and haste always came out first on secondaries, so i had a glance at some endgame warrs and most had around 1700-2k haste. which is far more than me, or even logical for me.
Guessed so, thanks. Since real speedkills are out ouf reach for me, UH-M + Anzus-M are my default farming trinkets.
2 trinkets with defensive and offensive benefits and probably my best dps options. I have a heroic warforged EDH, that might possibly beat the Anzus, while adding only strength for survival, so probably not worth it, even on farm.
For Damage, is Tauren passive 2% crit or Orc 345 ap bonus on 2 min cd better?
Assuming i'm also building crit enchants, gems etc.
