Watch him die -

Pally healer with righteous fury on and a frost trap. Tank removes gear to get a hp deficit – runs in and paladin holy shocks him and gets off a heal. the paladin then runs for his life relying on the hunters trap to slow them enough. Rather simple once we tried it this way.

Also Make it count. This is very painful I’d advise just getting 5 people who know the fight well and doing it with a balance of drakes – 5 amber is too luck based and can go awry if someone misses a shock or a time stop.

Also only using emerald drakes doesnt work any more – the whelps have an ability which works regardless of LoS or distance after a couple mins.

We first started with the kite tactic and failed a few times there. The mobs would stick to the puller (the hunter) but after a while they would come back to the rest of the group and eat up the healer.
We then tried the “pull one group, nuke the small adds, keep the big one alive, pull the next group” tactic. It doesn’t work. The damage on the tank is too brutal. The left most add constantly made me into a cocoon while we were dealing with the second group, and while we were trying to deal with that a skirmisher locked on to the holy priest and chew him up while ignoring my taunt.

So, we returned to the kite tactic.

The pull was quite complex and specific to our group, however the basic idea should remain the same:

The elemental shaman fired a lightning bolt at the left most group, and immediately following the cast, he shot a chain lightning at the right most group. In the meantime, the hunter MD’d him and hit the center group. What this means is that the shaman had proper aggro (not just the mobs attention because he was seen first) so the mobs would not come back immediately. We figured since he can only shoot one CL and that goes to the right most group, the lighting bolt should go to the wather in the left group. The holy pries then shackled the skirmisher since we deemed him a larger threat than the caster spider.

The pull went flawlessly (heroism was lit immediately following the CL pull), however the shaman died a little bit too soon and the adds started coming back while the boss still had 50%. All the adds were swarming back in and I mass taunted them and popped shield wall and last stand and prayed hard that DPS would down the boss before everyone died. The shaman ankhed and joined the fun as well. At the end only one DPSer survived and the boss was dead.

Definitely not an easy achievement.

The key is to have someone draw proper aggro (read: do damage or be MD’edd or whatever) and try to get the watchers and the adds as far away from the boss as possible. The boss really needs to die as fast as possible because eventually the kiter will die.

A good choice for pulling would also be a paladin of some sort because he/she could cast bubble on himself/herself right before being overwhelmed, therefore sparing a life. I don’t know if a paladin regains the original aggro once bubble goes away; if it stays, then the paladin should go towards the entrance of the instance and stay there; if it goes away completely, bubble and then return to the group to help out.
