The opening run on Kara took us through five 'bosses' in a single night; counting Opera event as one boss. We dropped Attumen, Maiden, Moroes, Opera (Wizard of Oz) and then hit Chess Event before we called it.
The Oz event was the most important, since our approach had to switch based on team composition.
Dorothy and Tito were left for melee dps and casters to engage and wipe out. Dorothy must die before Tito, and we pulled that off with the group focussing on those two first. Domainatra tanked Strawman, and we dropped Sidewiz (sorry buddy) for Aniscoria (warlock) for immolate and fire spells to disorient Strawman. Roar was feared repeatedly by the two hunters Jasron and Sorilea. Roar was controlled for the most part by the fears, although there were overlap problems with fear spells at times. Tinman was kited by me (Sand) the entire time. The MT on Tinman must engage him quickly upon his activation; he does not jump up and start fighting, and the delay can be substantial. I took on Roar at first since he moved earlier, then picked up Tin once he started; this gave hunters time to fear. Tinman hits HARD; 4500 is a typical hit from him. He can be slowed by frost, but we had no frost mages. We opted to simply tank him around and let him slow down from his Rust debuff.
Once Tin is controlled, he is just kited around the perimeter, slowly, hitting from time to time to avoid losing aggro. No one else really needs to hit him at all; and a feral druid can kite him by repeatedly casting faerie fire and just backing up. Occasionally a lacerate is thrown in to keep him dotted; and everyone else kills off Dorothy and Tito. Strawman was the third target; Dom had no trouble tanking him once he was on fire and kept immolated. Roar was fourth, Tinman last, so the MT job is boring.

Hey Sand, question for ya...Sidewiz wasn't in that Illhoof fight, but he's listed on dps stats. Could it be that the stat for Sidewiz is actually Ani's dps? No biggie.
I included Side's stats because he was actually with us earlier; but he was not in the Oz fight, so his total damage results would be skewed. His overall dps is a good average and a comparison with the rest of the stats only.
