New 10 Man Sarth 3D Strategy: ZERG!
MMO-Champion just posted this video of a Russian guild taking out Sartharion with all three drakes up on Normal mode in 76 seconds. Of course, after killing the dragon, the drakes enrage and kill the raid, but it's interesting to see someone do it. They used a single healer (Resto Shaman FTW), Pally Tank, One Rogue, One Feral Druid, Two Death Knights, and Four Fury Warriors. For those interested, the WWS (WoW Web Stats) of the encounter can be found here.
It's a pretty amazing accomplishment but I don't think you're awarded the Achievement, title, or mount for doing it that way (the achievement that pops up at the end is Gotta Go When the Volcano Blows).

We had 2 warlocks + 1 SP and 1 Mage, we are going to put in some more melee. It turned out the caster do less dps then the melee.
Practice makes perfect.
Blizz should stop nerfing classes and go right to the source and start nerfing players >.> lol
Anyway that was just epic...will have to try that at some point
For those wondering, yes this is real and it is possible. I just completed it with a PUG (yes i know a pug). Took dedication and about 6 hours total to complete, getting the details right. The key is to set up for the right flame waves and just wipe if they are different.
We had:
1 Prot Pally (me)
1 Holy Priest
4 Fury Warrs
1 Enh Shaman
1 Surv Hunter
1 Ret Pally
1 Feral Druid (Kiting)

Hi there, just to make a correction:
A team of us on my server have done this in 65 seconds, its parsed and on youtube. we used the same raid comp, except a warrior tank not a paladin. This was on live, in 213 gear.
You in fact DO get both the achievement and the mount. It requires a hell of a lot of gear, and dps, and a GODLY healer because when the drakes hard enrage at 25% they start hitting plate for about 12k..
I went back and looked at the achievment, it says you must kill Sarth with all 3 drakes up, not that you must kill them
Sweet, but he can't even spell rogue..,
there planning is quite superb, by grabbing 8 dps that had above 4500 dps means they would be doing 36000 dps per second, and when sarth goes below 30% health, you will be having the four fury warriors executing the crap out of him making half of that dps skyrocket. Resto shammy was also a great decision as these healers can throw out high powered aoe heals and manage the tanks health with earth shield and riptide.
It is possible with almost any group make up too, I did it with a caster heavy group.

The probably had it allready...
Nice achievement, did a couple tries with Guild with Non-Melee group, we got close, will post vid once we have done it.
We've been trying to do this with my guild for 2 days now. Closest we've gotten is 6% until he went immune. It is really about luck since you have to get the right lava walls in order to maintain the full-time dps needed.
LOLZ that was cheappy... Русия смърди вееее тахтхахахаха тапаци руски... не не сум Македонец - Българин ФТЛ FTW thhtahhahahahaha :D Nice Russians rulz :D
