The "four corner" strat is godly in this fight as can be seen in this video:

It is far more forgiving of slow, lagged, or even disconnected people than the straight "run straight across and pray everyone left in time and makes it" strat. Everyone who gets a positive polarity sidesteps toward the slime. Everyone with a negative polarity sidesteps toward the wall. The tank shifts sides during this moment. People who sidestepped to the right then move straight across to join the people with the same polarity and everyone moves back to the middle. It is incredibly simple (watch the video!), and since everyone sidesteps a little, it reduces the distance that a given person has to travel before they are far enough away from other people. Like I said, it's incredibly forgiving of slow and laggy players, and it doesn't take long to teach people how to do it.

Positive --> Acid
Negative --> Wall
If you moved right, walk across
Move back to middle

I am downloading this now, thanks for the tip. I have found with videos we always end up using our own strat because usually the vid is not the strength of our guild. For example, i had 3 excellent videos of the Gluth fight from a Mage perspective kiting the zombie chow. We tried that for a night and believe me it was fricking hard. I was able to get about 10 in somewhat of a kite and survive a couple of decimates but we ended up having way too many strays and therefore Gluth would constantly eat them and regain his health. We decided to go with Warriors kiting with piercing howl and use a Frost Nova rotation of Mages to freeze them in place. Using that strategy we got Gluth in one night of attempts.

I am curious about this video. Looking forward to seeing it.

After watching it, it makes a lot of sense. It still doesn't take out the factor of someone lagging. Even stepping right or stepping left does eliminate the fact that the lagger may still be too close. But this strat seems to take out the element of when you cross sides of interacting with the wrong charge. We probably will give this a try.
