We spent nearly two full hours wiping on Malygos-10 tonight. Our biggest issue being, lack of DPS in Phase 1.
Deaths were not a problem, aside from stupid tank deaths when I moved too far away from the healers a couple times ;)
All I can say, is this fight was the most intense fight I've had to do as a tank. Spacial and raid awareness is at its peak, as instead of worrying just about mob placement, I'm worrying about Sparks, gigantic dragon placement, raid placement, strafing, and threat.
We only managed phase 3 once, but its a big long learning experience, and I think we're getting closer and closer to getting that all-important phase 1 down.
Our biggest issue was stacking the sparks right on top of one another, so if anyone out there has input on Maly, and spark stacking in ten man (that doesn't involve "bring more Deathknights") please, share.
Also, we run a melee heavy raid (had 2 hunters, and 4 melee dps and me tanking along with 3 healers), is that going to be a problem for us in phase 2?
I don't know.
All these questions, yet, after a night of personal frustration, after thinking about it... we did pretty well to get as far as we did.
Each attempt we improved. Each time the sparks got smoother and smoother, and my kiting the big dragon in circles got better and better.
Maybe our overall DPS was a bit low. Maybe it was because I still haven't upgraded my titansteel boots. STILL.

Progression is as progression does. I don't know where the frustration is coming from, unless you might have thought the guild was going to one-shot the deal. Keep plugging away and eventually, the encounter will be on farm in no time.
