Some notes! The second tankbuster does *not* go on the second in aggro dps - it goes on a random one! We've seen the dancer at 6 or 7 get it a few times. Solo healing is very viable, in that case the light party stacks go on a random tank (or the only tank), so you can just build the light party stacks around that. If you have one tank one healer, you just have two fake support for double meteor, and *either* of them can call on the flexer if they get the meteor (but only one will ever need to). I'm confused about the tank surviving the 3 sword slashes - I was under the impression that 3 stacks would just kill a tank (it certainly does through invulns, now we're wondering if the invuln *causes* it to kill you) but your tank seemed to just clear them with very little damage, so clearly I was wrong! We were doing elaborate stance management to move it to the top aggro dps for one of the hits (because just shirk won't work if you haven't been letting them get reeeeally close in aggro)
As for surviving the 3 sword slash hits, I just tanked this as war after being told I could survive it and linked to this video- invulns will not work, I had to use Bloodwhetting, Rampart, Damnnation, Thrill of Battle, Shake It Off, and Reprisal (every single Warrior mitigation) to survive the third hit with around 15-20% of my hp with no vuln stacks or help from the healer. One pull I burned Rampart early out of reflex and died not having it for the 3 hit TB. ilvl 730 with 735 wep

I will tank it this weekend and play with that and get back to you on Thanks for the insite. Now I'm curious too. 🤔
true u can see in the video that the 3rd in aggro gets the tbuster, not 2nd
