Did normal first try :-). Really easy when using that strategy with moving behind DoS just when he marks the person for the wailing direction.

Door Trick, what are the steps? What do you do exactly? It keeps jumping.
congrats!
re: your previous comment on ui (thanks!).. actually i have significantly modified and trimmed it since then but generally i use:
kgpanels for the UF/bars/etc container
pitbull for UF
macaroons for bar
ntk (needtoknow) for buff/debuff/proc/cd bars
carbonite for minimap and all questing needs
It's a tricky trick... Wish that video was still up but I can understand why it was taken down.
You just have to keep trying. The main thing is don't have your team do ANYTHING to draw any kind of threat. No heals or anything so they are technically out of combat. Park your slaves in the hall before the entrance into his room close enough to where your spells aren't out of range of the stairs.
Have only your tank enter and drag him to the stairs near the door- if you go out the door he'll reset. Get aggro with your tank for a good 20-30 secs- then its just tank n spank. If he jumps for your team he'll reset- you gotta do it just right- just keep trying.
20 wipes and counting.
This boss I have to admit is actually getting me down. On no wipe did I even get him to 50%, and on no attempt did all 4 of my rets survive past the first stomp 10 seconds into the fight. 1500g repairs and counting.
ouch. Park your toons 2nd archway from the entrance of the room, this is what worked for me.
And what Jinkobi said re. threat, you need to build up a huge threat before DPS. If all else fails, run your tank out the room and restart - no repair bills!
Oz, check my post earlier in this thread. Specifically the part about strafing, which is predominately how I managed when I ran with a DK instead of a hunter. Well, even with the hunter. I kept my entire crew tightly grouped by the end, it was just easier to keep an eye on everything that way.
To do the door strat you need ranged DPS, all pally team just isn't going to work =(
You have to do it the old fashioned way if you're all melee. That starting on one side of the room and slowly strafing side to side is a good strategy- but once again you're melee so not going to work. I really don't see anyway around besides muscling it out with everybody on follow.
