    The boss has 999,994 hit points. Assuming your DPS is low you will have 4 dreads each at 30k a piece. That's a total of 1119994HP that must be down in exactly 11 minutes. That's 1697 group DPS required to win. Tanks do like 40% at best the DPS of a real DPS class. So assuming you're doing the single tank strat that means you have about 5.4 DPS if I'm giving the tank a lot of credit. Every DPS must do a minimum of 314 by that math. More is obviously better and honestly you should assume the tank is probably doing less than what I just ran the numbers on. If you can skip the 3rd dread then that number comes down a bit.

    This turn is awesome since it's so easy to run the math on.

    Well after the deefnsive towers pop their AE raid damage is none, so one healer can focus the tank for a while for the SCH to drop into cleric stance and throw some dots on Avatar, pop an int pot before dotting to help push a bit more DPS out. Get everyone stocked up on potent poisons also and spam on the boss everytime they are off cooldown to squeeze even more DPS. Party should be stacked close enough to use them.

    When you factor in two limit breaks, you need roughly a combined dps of 1650 to win with 5 seconds to spare.
