Actually, I just sacrificed my pet for each elite. Cast HoT on pet, send it
in, open up my rotation with dots, then the large cooldown attack, then
standard attacks. Elite and pet usually died at around the same time. Revife
pet, rinse and repeat. I hope he doesn't hold a grudge (it's the worst I've
treated him since taming him at level 10 in Dun Morogh, it's still the same
snow leopard).

I'm sure. Haven't decided yet if I want to solo Ulduar (never managed to
finish it back in the 10er days) or if I want to visit ICC (got three or
four bosses in on two PUG raids once) or what. I'll see what takes my fancy
and what achievments I still have open that sound achievable.

Cheers
