If you do this, he can pretty easily handle the first phase around the forge, without triggering anvils. I made sure he and the Blacksmith appeared in my raid frames (Grid+Clique), which made their status easy to see, and greatly simplified casting heals on them. I Beaconed myself.

It's much harder/impossible to do this when restarting the final phase after a wipe. This is one of the reasons I get frustrated and quit - second and subsequent tries are at a big disadvantage.

I'm probably going to sound horribly smug here... just got it on the
4th try :-O Can't believe it tbh, thought it'd take me dozens of tries
after reading the posts on ehre about it!

First try, blacksmith died in phase 2 (oops), decided trying to be
Disc and dps/Atonement heal wasn't gonna work well enough, switched to
holy and all out healing.

2nd try, died to the meteor shower (oops).

3rd try, was going alright but ran out of first mana, then anvils,
however I had him down pretty low so figured it was close and better
execution would get it (knew I'd made a few mistakes).

4th try, grabbed a spirit elixir, spam healed the defender to try to
boost his dmg as much as possible, actually remembered to use
mindbender on cd, stood right on top of the anvils (so didn't let
insanity cast get off this time) and paid enough attention to the
meteors to not need to waste much mana on myself! A bit shocked it
worked but quite pleased :-)
