No shield? His beam does a lot of damage.
Nope, never shield. It does indeed do a lot of damage, on 25 it's 72k over 3 sec if I remember correctly (12k/0.5s). But using the big heals you can get topped fast and you'll be back at 100k health. A 5-combo point big heal would heal everyone in range (not just in your group) for 22500 considering the caster has the 50% increased healing buff.

When we first killed him we did shield, but we wiped a lot more as well because a lot of stacks would fall off. Doing it the way I described above makes dpsing pretty much idiot proof and healing isn't that much harder either, just gotta mash some more buttons.
