After doing a bit of poking around, it seems there's a couple ways you can "cheese" this fight. Both of these are likely exploits so I can't recommend using them.

1) Voidwalker(s) tank Steelbreaker. When they kersplode they won't cause him to heal.

2) When a tank has about 12 seconds left on their bomb, they begin hearthing. When they kersplode he won't heal.

Again, both of these are exploits so I can't recommend we do them.

That said, I saw a few notes about how many healers to do this with, and generally speaking many groups appeared to run 6 healers. So we're on the right road, we just need to get it done.

Using a blueberry to tank would probably fall under "creative use of game mechanics." Hearthing, probably not (besides, a kill isnt a kill unless everyone who has put the effort in gets to to reap the rewards). Im sure im not the only person who had an old school, low level instance tanked by a blueberry or hunter pet.

Personally I'd prefer to complete the fight as intended. Makes it feel more like an "achievement."

1) (if VoA hasn't been done yet) do VoA.

2) Get into Ulduar and tackle the usual hard modes (FL, XT).

3) Start working on the following hard modes:

a) Iron Council
b) Auriaya (aka Crazy Cat Lady)

4) Once those are taken care of, resume normal progression thru Ulduar.

Remaining hard modes after those two, for drakes, should be Freya, Mimiron, and Yogg-Saron.

Question...are we planning on

Question...are we planning on "farming" hard-mode keepers weve already done or just blowing through those?

imo, with raid extensions, we can take our sweet ass time with them.
