Alright then, close...no Cigar.
Lets try to figure out what went wrong. For the sake of using 3 sections of issues, I will be using the "Holy Trinity" as a base. Please reply if you noticed anything I didn't.
Tanking - Azubis and I had a lot of problems here. Not so much in terms of holding aggro, but in terms of trading off aggro. Looks like I was generating too much hate and he wasn't getting near enough. I tried to compensate by backing off a bit, it seemed to help out a lot. Azubis, Lennaron and Ecthaleasa could usually pick up aggro no problem after that. He would also seek me out right after a sheep, thus adding to the "too much threat" idea.
We are gonna try to figure it out with a threat meter next week.
I encourage you all to get this. Not a requirement though. (The Threat meter)

Another Idea we may want to try is just letting the tanks do their thing till the end of the second life drain. It would pretty much guarantee that the tanks would have solid aggro when DPS started.
Healing - Looks like we had Six healers total, Three on each tank. The problem That we seemed to have was that the healing was spread far too thin. Poison damage slowly killed off the raid. Danovan crunched some numbers for me and it looks like 16000 damage for each kill on a son of Hakkar (from the poison alone)
A possible solution is to bring another healer for spot heals on hunters/mages/rouges. Probably wont be needed when we solve the tanking problem. But then again it might not be a bad idea anyway.
DPS - Y'all kept dying. I encourage you guys to invest in nature resist potions as well as stock up on bandages and health/mana potions.
Not trying to come down on your guys. 17% on the first night of attempts is DAMN good. If we make more attempts on him in the following weeks we got this. Just call this "constructive Criticism" if you want.
In the mean time I encourage you all to seek out whatever gear improvements you can. As always if you mail me potion materials I will make them for you free of charge, you don't even need to worry about Vials.
I can do major mana/health, Greater [school of magic] protection potions, Major troll blood potion, mageblood potion. Just tell me what you want and I will tell you what you need to get for them.
