we put in 3 hours Monday night and got as far as a 5% wipe on the 3rd drake
then back last night same group apart from a different holy pala and we got the kill.
Group was made up of
Feral (obviously)
2 DK tanks 1 unholy the other imp icy talons spec (I have no clue about DK's)
ret pala
FF mage
moonkin
shadow priest (me)
Resto shamy
resto druid
holydin
at the end DPS metre was me, moonkin, mage. with 1% between us. all on about 3.6k dps ish.
we would pop hero on the 1st drake and kill him in about 1 min (just as VE was about to expire). Then we'd nuke the whelps to reduce the incoming damage on the DK. then DPS down the 2nd drake. Then me, mage, moonkin, holydin and ret who put on a shield went into the portal. killed the 2 in there. then dps'd down the 3rd drake. back into the portal. kill him. then all onto sarth.
although during the 2nd portal visit the shammy and druid were both oom. holydin on 70% mana lol. I did some healing and threw some shields around and 10 were standing at the end.
I love the fight. I can decide if I like it more than muru pre nerf.
I can only assume melee fail so much because it's really hard to see the fissures on the floor when death and decay is down. I almost got hit by one because of that.
