One strat is to ignore everything and have the tank run around in a circle having the WHM spam Stoneskin and SCH adlo. Have all ranged dps just dps the one snakr and if you get too much aggro kill yourself on tail swipe and rez them.

Hope this helps!

Ok OP this is very simple and as step by step as I can make it

1. MT pulls to 1 of your tank positions (these are different for everyone. take your pick)
2. 1st set of platforms light up. OT and a dps assigned to oozes both spawn an ooze. (we always used me (monk) and our drg with defensive xclass skills but most use bards)
3. dps who spawned ooze feeds as soon as he has dpsed it down
4. OT feeds ooze soon as the 2nd stack is applied

at this point you have to gauge your dps. If you have enough just push the split.. if not (we didn't when we started and AK gear was still good) have the dps spawn a 3rd ooze and feed.

5. split happens (either after 2nd or 3rd stack depending)
6. MAIN TANK moves to 2nd tank position (OT takes MT's place as he is fighting for aggro on a new mob and shouldn't be trying to run a mob across the arena)
7. simply tell your dps to try and balance them. They can see both health bars with the aggro interface and if they can't handle keeping them fairly close while keeping the same dps they would focusing on 1 something is wrong. Your summoners will dot both (dps improvement) your bards will dot both (also an improvement) etc etc. It does nothing but improve your dps. If you have 2 melee have them split up and trigger tail swipes on both to help heals.
8. If your dps/tanking/healing isn't enough to kill them without feeding post split try feeding 1 ooze to each thoughout the split phase... If that doesn't work do 2.. etc etc. If you have a pal and a war you may need to feed the war more than the pal. When we 1st got in we were having me and the drg each feed 2 throughout the duration but only when all our CDs were back up (to allow heals to focus on tanks)


enjoy.


To give you an idea of the gear we were in.

This is the exact strategy my group does every week, and it works well.
