    First of all, WAR is the ideal MT in this fight. PLD is the ideal OT. Warrior Inner Beast provides the perfect answer to Death Sentence, especially in the last two phases. Meanwhile, Hallowed Ground is great for off tanking snakes.

    Your tank death problem might happen because the MT is taking 2 or more stacks from Hygeia. If your OT is dying, he should pop all of his defensive cooldowns and then use Hallowed Ground. If your MT is dying, it could be because he is taking 2 or more stacks. Better positioning by both tanks will solve that problem.

    Two-tank method:
    • MT tanks the Big Snake (Asclepius). OT tanks the four Small Snakes (Hygeia)
    • MT pulls the big snake in the middle and gets in position. Meanwhile, OT establishes aggro on the little snakes.
    • The MT does not move the big snake but rotates himself AROUND the big snake so that he is on the opposite side of the big snake from the OT.
    • The MT needs to be maximum melee range of the big snake. As MT, I back up very slowly until I am very barely out of Weapon Skill range. Asclepius will take a very tiny step towards me. At this point, I know I'm at maximum melee range. I don't move from this position and the OT does most of the work.
    • The OT positions the small snakes near Asclepius and pops Hallowed Ground as our BLM Limit Breaks all five snakes.
    • It is the responsibility of the OT to make sure the small snakes die near the big snake, applying all four debuffs on it, without getting any debuffs on the MT. It is the responsibility of the MT to help the OT do this by positioning himself accordingly.

    The MT can take 1 or 2 debuffs from the little snakes and still survive. Having 2 debuffs might require heavy use of defensive cooldowns. Ideally, you want 0 or 1 debuffs. Proper positioning (opposite side of OT and maximum melee range) ensures that.

    I hope this helps.
