I have 554 item level and here's my experience. (I am MM specced)
First phase:
As usual, send pet to middle and put on passive, misdirect things to him.
Second phase:
Corrupter tentacles have priority, given you're not picked up by constrictors. I was able to make it to the brain room with 80 sanity left, so i believe the loss has been dramatically reduced. A guy some posts above me suggested to bring brain to 40% and wait for dots to kill him. I tried to follow that tactic and it did NOT work. The reason why is because, while the brain gets to 30% due to dot ticks, tentacles keep appearing outside, and i was soon overwhelmed.
Here's what i did:
Once the illusion was broken, i went on to the brain. My pet wasn't there for some reason. I popped Rapid Fire ONLY and that was enough to push the brain to 26% (streak of crits at the end) before i got spewed out. Once i got out, i just had to take care of a corrupter tentacle, and i even left a big one up.
Third phase:
Stampede, Drums of Rage, Vermin's Bite and misdirect enemies to your pet, while nuking the boss. Since Yogg-saron heals a bit during this phase, i had a hard time killing him in the end, after cooldowns ended. In the end, i managed it.
Keep in mind i didn't even use the Flask; i was using the Crystal of Insanity.
