However, whenever the adds spawned, all the DPS would run back into the hallway, and our Demon lock (a BM hunter might work too) would pick up the adds with her pet. The pet died after 3 iterations of this, but of course she had that insta-rez thang so it was no biggie. The important part about this is that the pet gets the debuff from killing the adds, which is otherwise a major load on your healer. also, all the damaging shit that gets thrown around doesnt affect the DPS for this small portion.
We also ran back in the hallway during the Overload phase, and our DOTs took care of the boss while he was tanked down.
To use a straight and narrow strat for this guy you have to be pretty damn geared, so i hope this trick helps people out.
