Steelbreaker attempts

We've nailed Steelbreaker last phases 1 and 2.

Phase 1 the biggest risk is the MT not getting Fusion Punch cleansed off quickly enough and Steelbreaker being left in a Rune of Power for too long. Otherwise it's very straightforward.

Phase 2 the biggest risk is in positioning everybody correctly so the ranged DPS and healers correctly outrange the Overcharge coming from Brundir. The positioning is well demonstrated in TankSpot's Hard Mode IC video. Check 2:00 into video



Phase 3 we're having trouble coming up with the DPS required to kill Steelbreaker. WorldOfLogs has a cool feature that allows you to get DPS charts for only a specific part of the fight. This allows you to see how much damage people are putting out during the only part that really matters - the Steelbreaker burn.

So we got Steelbreaker to 3%, which has lead to the following possibilities for closing the deal
1. We could try going to a 4th tank transition, in which Isis is combat rezzed and tries to tank Steelbreaker in a 4th stack.
2. We could drop down to 5 healers and see if that's enough to keep everybody up
3. We can have Bigunit respec to Unrelenting Assault revenge spam for this fight, which is supposedly really good for his personal DPS

Hopefully we'll be back in there tonight. Bullydot's going to miss the raid and given that he was #1 last night, we might try Yogg+3 instead.
