Garalon took our lunch money 10m N HALP!

You should 2 heal. Spirit shell the crushes. Disc priest are amazing. If all DPS excluding tank and healers are at 75-80k deeps your fine. There's not much damage going out really. The disc can pretty much DPS. But I recommend 2 heals! Gl!

Forgot to say. We use 2 tanks with 2 healers. Pretty much tanks minimizes dmg don't even have to heal them. Heals just focuses on everyone else really.

What he said basically.
We do 2 heal (Disc priest and MW Monk) with Paladin and DK tank soaking and doing 1st and 2nd kiting duty, having a hunter and a mage doing 3rd and 4th. Last 4 dps are Affli Lock (i believe he is affli), Frost DK, Rogue and Spriest.

At first when we met the boss, our healers were like doing 70k HPS for 2 minutes straight and we said "no way we can 2 heal that", but we quickly found that with the spriest helping every now and then in nasty situations, we can usually deal with it pretty well

There is no need to 2 heal on 10 man normal, nor use 2 tanks.

Just use 3 healer and have one soak the frontal cone with a tank (or even plate DPS), and include the other healers on the kiting rotation.

This actually leaves more DPS able to stay still and DPS efficiently as well as giving you smoothness and predictability from the additional healer.

We've got 4 dps pushing 100k+, you've got all DPS minus one at 70k or less. I think that could be a major problem for you.

[Soraka]

If you can get 2 plate non-tanks to soak swipe, it helps a ton. Tank dps is so low without meaningful vengeance. My group kills him with 3 heals and 7 dps with our fury warrior in defensive and frost dk in blood pres soaking. You might be able to soak with your arms warrior and holy pally.

Hmm, if we had plate dps, we might've tried them soaking in defensive stances... maybe this week

We had the most success downing it with 2 tanks, 2 heals, 6 dps.
4 Kiters: Tank->tank->Hunter->affliction lock
The hunter and aff lock lose very little dps even while kiting.

If you are getting close to the enrage timer: if a legs is near death, finish it off but don't bother on a full health leg you wont down before he hits enrage.

[XanderJS]

We 2 tank and 3 healed it on our progress kill and the few after that. To meet the enrage you need your DPS to be hitting around 85-90k. As has been suggested before the best way to max your dps is to have the healers and tanks kite. With 3 healers the raid damage should never really be a cause for concern. Meeting the enrage is the only difficult part with that setup.

Also make sure everyone is getting on the legs as often as possible. They are by fr the fastest way to drop 3% off the boss. The only times we aren't on the legs straight away are if they run over the pheromone pools or its the front outside leg and we have to wait for the swipe to move over to it.

That worked for us, hopefully that'll work for you too!!

Just letting the denizens of the great MMO-Champion know, we downed this giant dumb roach tonight, through a little bit of trial and error. DPS stepped it up, and we whipped his ass.
