Strategy: StratFu: Sarth 3D

Overview

Sartharion with three Drakes up is the "optional difficulty" version of the extremely simple Sartharion fight.

Not only do the drakes add more mobs to the equation (or in some cases, lots of mobs, like Tenebron), they also add in void zones and huge damage multipliers that change Sartharion from a simple "don't stand in the fire" fight into a complex DPS race involving a wide range of abilities and a complex strategy.

Sartharion with three drakes up emphasizes heavy healing and DPS both.

While the fight starts fairly simple for the healers, with just Tenebron up, it quickly heats up in to the heaviest healing load Wrath has seen to date (it's particularly bad on 10-man.) Raid damage is incredibly high once Vesperon, the third drake, lands, and tank healing can only be managed via cooldowns and aggressive tank health top-offs.

The meat of the fight is over if you can get Shadron dead, so DPS must push extremely hard during Tenebron and Shadron. Make sure your raid has all the buffs and debuffs appropriate, and that people are in their highest DPS specs possible.
