I'd seen screenshots in the past, but I still couldn't believe how big he was.
Anyhow, I would have liked a second or third run on him just for practice, but I realize people were tired and wipes are time-consuming. We definitely need 2 to 3 healers, maybe 4, assigned solely to the main tank and just spamming heals. One Priest constantly casting Flash Heal isn't enough to keep a main tank vertical, at least not with the fire resistances we currently have on our big boys. On that fight I stayed with Skybreak and that was a dumb move, since he wasn't taking damage until he was just about the only tank left.
How we handle the Sons of Flame packs...well, dunno. We'll need squads dedicated to handling them, like how we have squads for whelp pits in Onyxia. Warlocks are critical. Less mages, more warlocks for Rag is definitely a good thing.
74% on the first try, bringing out a flame pack. By the time they arrived, we had nothing left to face them, though.
Oh, and epic items aren't for wussies anymore, I guess. Dammit! :)
Comcast update: I am at their mercy. After yet another call this morning, they admitted that their local node is having problems, 731 connected modems to that node are affected, and there's no ETA on the fix. Could be today, could be a month from now. Consider me a "maybe" to all raids until I get a stable line...
