What people who are saying things like "Why is Blizz posting the strat?" and "It's so easy for my group! You all must suck!" don't realize is that 1. It's a heroic 5-man...who cares? Not like this is the last encounter of the expansion, and 2. Not every group is identical to your group which has been successful.

Most people aren't to the point of "Overgeared" yet, many are infact undergeared and just wing it, and they must rely on a skilled group to pass through these encounters.

What we have here is a situation where there is statistical evidence that shows that this particular encounter is killing an awful lot of people. It doesn't matter whether *your* group is able to kill him. Many groups have been struggling with it.

As a paladin healer, I can safely say, that despite having killed him a number of times, this is still one of my least favorite fights. You really need to count on your group to be on top of things.

I for one think it's fantastic that Blizz took a look at what was going on and took the time to offer up some suggestions to those who are having trouble. If you think GC's post has crossed the line, then I believe you're probably taking the game a smidge too seriously ;)
