I think it will be quite fun when I get over the shock and horror. Among the beasts encounter, only the worms are a real challenge. Positioning is very difficult, particularly as a healer with a need to stay in range of both tanks while avoiding frontal cone attacks and moving around to dispel the poison. If the worms die, you've won.
The second guy, released yesterday, is a demon that throws just about every conceivable evil shit at the lot of you: chain lightning, dots, fires, adds, even volcanoes. This is another fight where staying out of trouble and keeping in range of everyone to heal them is the biggest challenge. The add tank died on a couple of occasions because I just wasn't standing in the right place at the right time. But we got him down on our fourth attempt, which ain't bad for me :)
Interestingly, we took two tanks and four healers into the instance. I've never tackled a 10-man with more than three before, and often only two. I don't know if this is how other guilds are doing it, but it was a good move on our part. The whole raid takes significant damage throughout both encounters and with range being the issue it is I think we would have struggled a lot more just keeping everyone up.

I did it last night as well (three healers, and I was playing my tree druid for what it's worth). On the first Jaraxxus attempt, I actually started laughing uncontrollably once DBM started freaking out and playing it's alert noise on a constant loop and I realized I had absolutely no idea what the hell was going on in the fight. Once you've seen it a couple of times, though, the abilities he uses sort themselves out, and it's surprisingly straightforward; we had him down on the third attempt.
Forget the whole FIGHT with Jaraxxus... That opening was EPIC!!!
Lol the demon sounds brutal. We're still trying to get Yoggy down before we move to the Colloseum so we're a bit behind the times >.>
