Some guilds have success allocating little to no DPS on the spirits, by maximizing distance between the raid and the explosions. The strategy is mostly about positioning: start on an edge of the platform, move the Lich King to the opposite side when the Spirits show up, the raid stays with the MT and LK, and the spirits will get close to ground level by the time they reach the middle of the platform. The offtank plays "tag" with all the spirits, hitting as many as possible. If executed well, this allows for most or all of the DPS to be on LK, so even if things start to fall apart, the percentage of time when survival/zerg cooldows are active goes way up.
Defiles could potentially cause serious problems for this strategy, so there's less room for error: there must be a clear path for kiting to the opposite side every time the spirits spawn, or else we'll end up with range issues and defiles splitting the raid into smaller groups. In this video, though, the defiles are not perfectly executed and they muddle through:
If anyone has other suggestions or concerns about this strategy please post them.
