Overview: 0:00
Fighting the Construct: 0:44
Soul of Socrethar: 12:42
Portal Adds: 15:53
Construct Piloting: 23:17

DPS Tips: 34:34
Construct Phase: Side-step for Orb, Charge, and Prison.
If asked to soak Reverberating Blow, step in front of the boss/near tank when your turn comes.
Socrethar Phase: Dominator is TOP PRIORITY over everything else.
A few ranged DPS should kill Shadowcallers and a few others should help finish off Haunting Souls.
Melee DPS should rotate interrupts on Socrethar for every single Exert Dominance.
With Gift of the Man'ari step out of the raid slightly until green circle isn't affecting anyone.
Stay stacked with raid or near as possible to control Soul fixation paths.

Tank Tips: 36:14
Construct Phase: If solo tanking Reverberating Blows, save big personal cooldowns for cast #3+ (when you'll have 5 stacks of Shattered Defenses).
Always face the Construct towards the group/area you want the next Reverberating Blows to hit.
Socrethar Phase: If tanking boss, keep boss+Dominator near the Red Portal at all times.
Construct Pilot: See previous section.

Healer Tips: 37:56
Construct Phase: Side-step for Orb, Charge, and Prison.
Keep current tank and other Reverberating Blows targets topped off before each cast. If necessary, rotate single-target cooldowns on tank for Reverberating Blows.
Socrethar Phase: With Gift of Man'ari step out of the raid slightly until green circle isn't affecting anyone.
Dispel Shadow Word: Agony at 2+ stacks, or heal through the damage if reasonable.
Stay stacked with raid or near as possible to control Soul fixation paths.
