Our guild successfully downed the princes a couple weeks ago with me as the Keleseth tank. We'd made some attempts the previous week to no avail but after reconsidering some gear choices it was much easier. Step 1) 40k HP using some stam gemmed Frost Resist gear and PvP gear mixed with my higher level PvE gear (didn't regem this). Also "borrowed" a http://www.wowhead.com/?item=50356 for the fight and then returned it for a full refund before it soulbound to me :-p Step 2) Remodeled my dual spec a bit: http://www.wowhead.com/?talent#cVfhztgRfzheRtZe00i:kAf Step 3) Couple Macros: /tar prince keleseth /cast kill shot /cast serpent sting(rank1) /tar huntername /cast roar of sacrifice /targetlasttarget Basically with the build above and my new "tank set" I was able to get me and my pet bear, Aldo, up to 40k HP with 10man buffs. Great incoming heal boost for hunter and pet alike from Spirit Bond. Used roar of sacrifice and "borrowed" trinket whenever possible to mitigate some damage, especially during empowered phase. Glyph of kill shot with the kill shot macro above kept plenty enough aggro on keleseth with a few other shots thrown in for good luck. If things got hairy Aldo would taunt keleseth and then i'd distracting shot him back when I was topped off again. With a knowledgeable healer and a prooperly talented bear heals weren't even an issue. In my case I had a Pally beacon and it was a breeze. It was probably the most fun I've had in a run in a long time! Great post! Our guild successfully downed the princes a couple weeks ago with me as the Keleseth tank.

Step 3) Couple Macros:
/tar prince keleseth
/cast kill shot

/cast serpent sting(rank1)

/tar huntername
/cast roar of sacrifice
/targetlasttarget

As a side note if available a Disc Priest is an excellent choice for a Keleseth healer, as you have the greatest chance of being hit by a life-ending blow, an extra 8-9k effective hp from PW:S is a great help.

We just downed Blood Princes last week in 25 man, but our 10 man has struggled on our few attempts. This post will no doubt help me, should I be asked to tank him one of these nights. I had a few attempts in 10 man last week, but I think half of us could have used a better crash course on the fight mechanics. Very helpful post. Nice work. This is a great article Solaryn.
