The tail attack brings them down to a low % but can never kill them unless your healer is slow and can't get rid of everyone's' Slime debuff. The boss getting Haste and hitting the tank harder has nothing to do with being able to deal with it.
    I am going to ignore the stuff about scholar healing in this boss fight as I am sure it's easier with a pocket cure going off while you spam leeches and whispering Dawn when it's up, I've done it and you are right about that part. However, I am referring to more WHM play in difficulty and boss difficulty in general in Sasatasha HM, especially with the boss in hasten state and with regen tics. I've witnessed the regen tic happen, then slime tic right after tail swipe, it has ALOT to do with it. Since 2.4 I along with several other WHM (hopefully you did too) experienced a noticeable difference in cast time, meaning it's slower in general), dunno if it was intentional or not, but it's there. With keeping the tank at full life AND with applying regen and esuna to most of the team it is some what problematic. Don't misunderstand me. I am NOT by any means saying it is impossible, but I am saying this boss fight is the more difficult to deal with compared to the remaining bosses of this dungeon. That was my point. Although, I know that the OP was talking about the HP of the Kraken, which I totally agree with. I just made a statement that this boss is the more complicated one to deal with, NOT that I don't know how to...

    Thank you. I like simple answers like that.

    Unlike this one...

I didn't learn it right away, no, but from the first time I fought it, I was studying the entire fight. If I can do it, anyone can
    But let me be a little mean in return in saying I bet you're one of the crybabies that scream noob when someone dies to something they don't understand and then cause a team wipe when they say they are new to a specific fight rather than lend a hand and explain certain mechanics before the fight begins, excpecting to pull the weight yourself.

    I'm gonna quote you in closing. "If I can help someone understand a survival mechanic, anyone can..."
