Hammerknell Raid Info gathered so far
Hammerknell released in NA/EU yesterday and guilds have started on it. It consist of 10 bosses and the best resource I have for tracking guild progress (source: http://www.riftranks.com/) the guilds are 2/10.
This is a youtube vid of the first boss Murdantix:

Edit: Hotfix 14 just fixed/should the issues with above bosses.

Raid Assignments
The fight requires two tanks, and significant AOE healing. Healing and DPS will need to be balanced out for your raid's gear and performance.
He has a health pool of 9.5M and an enrage timer of 10 minutes. Raid DPS should be approximately 16-17k in order to beat this enrage timer.
It should be noted that 320 focus or hit is recommended (at least 300) for the entire raid, and 200 toughness on the tanks. Tanks could consider stacking up on more toughness if the stacking toughness debuff (see below) is causing trouble.

LFD tools are great for cramming people into content, but quality > quantity.
I am, usually on the sandbox .. more "hardcore" side of things, but I also do just want to have fun. So lighten up already
They are calling him the new Patchwerk of Rift because the entire point of the fight is to meet the dps check.
