Strategy Edit

Approximately once ever minute this guy will spawn an add. The key to defeating him is to assign a secondary tank (any fighter type)for the raid to assist. NO ONE should go directly at Alzid, aside from the main tank. The secondary tank will then switch target back and forth between adds and Alzid. The adds are only heroic mobs so even a monk with a single healer assigned should be able to tank them.

The strategy given above is mainly used by beginning guilds, or guilds with beginner tanks. The adds that spawn are tied to Alzid's hate list, so essentially with proper aggro control they will never leave the main tank. Have your main hit TAB when a new add spawns, taunt it, and then go back to Alzid. There is no need for a secondary tank/main assist in this event. The key to this is that Alzid stays on the main tank while you are killing blobs. If your main tank cannot establish enough aggro, this method will fail.
