To kill Hexos, I had to slightly change my action bars, since I don't use any macros etc. The whole fight I pressed only the main abilities (GT, AS, SS, CS, BW, Stampede, KC) with Readiness -> BW when the gap came. Barely beat the enrage with ~92k DPS or more. I believe I used a flask and the Brawler's guild potion with a buff group.
I'm now stuck on Anthracite, I just don't seem to have the DPS/Burst to kill the elementals and Anthracite before all of the elementals vaporize.
I personally didn't find Hexos very hard. I thought he was very fun, instead. GG Engineering and Anthracite are much harder in my eyes. Battletron took a few tries, Dark Summoner oneshot, Meatball oneshot (very fun with 440k DPS :P), Chicken guy oneshot, Dual Mode robot took a few tries, I often died to the switch damage, or because my pet died to his melee.
The jump from Meatball - Hexos is gigantic, the jump from Rank 7 - Rank 8 isn't. Although that depends on class, some with a more difficult rotation could be worse on Hexos, since you can't focus on your rotation so well. Knowing your rotation blindfolded is good, though.
I believe I can beat most of Rank 9 with SoO LFR gear, though. Hopefully I don't need any better gear, since my realm is quite dead with PuGs...
