5Boxing Blackheart the Inciter (2nd Boss SL)

Title says it all.

I have tried 5 boxing him with a war, priest, lock, 2mages and have had massive problems. I position all my toons at the door behind him and try to keep everybody with their backs to the wall so the kickback will not spread my group all over the place. Still i cannot down him so I have a couple of points I whould like your opinions on:

* Whould you change the group setup? (I have a pala, a druid, and a shadow priest available)
* What about gear? At the moment my gear is not so good. Whould it help to drasticly improve gear or whould it hurt my own toons. How about putting good gear on the healer and have the dps is bad gear?
* Any other useful tips?

Thanks for your input.

It's a pretty challenging fight with all mana DPS to begin with. If you have the means, your best bet is to stack stamina and mp5(spirit for the mages, I suppose.). Unless you can get to the point where you kill him after the first incite, he will run you out of mana with chain casting armour, holy nova, blizzard, etc. If your characters are a little more resilient, and have some regen, you might be able to do it.

How's your gear looking overall? I had the exact same issue when I first hit 70 and my shamans were sporting about 6500 ish HP. Once I obtained about 7500 across the board I have not wiped since. I know it's only 1k more HP but it made a huge huge difference, my characters kept killing themselves on the charm.

My gear is mostly blues from quests or instances with the occasional green and the occasional tailoring epic mixed in. Still a lot to do.
I am currently farming cloth to tailor a stamina set for my clothies and see how that goes.
Thanks for the input, any advice is appreciated.
