The Farstride Unicorn 
by EQ-Raiders
Farstride Unicorn comes complete with two small Fay Drakes which are also Epic Adds.
The Drakes will remove all your buffs so this fight can get a little tricky. Have the stronger of your tanks grab the drakes and pull them atleast 100 meters away from the rest of the raid force. The secondary tank will tank the Unicorn. The Farstrider also has Furious Storm, so setting your cures up will be alot like how you do Gardener and Prince.
Curing is done best by timing the AOE and by also visual alertness. You will see the AOE start to cast (BIG blue bubble), it is at this point you should be spam curing Arcane. Healers who can cure through the stun should be doing so now, Jester's Cap works well.
Burn the Named. Meanwhile your MT keeping the faydrakes as busy as possible. Regen is a must for this group and 3 of the best healers you have in a Warden Templar and Defiler should get the job done.
If the Drakes are too much for one tank, the other option is to 3 tank the encounter. If this is done, 2-3 healers per tank group will be needed and the fight will span a long ways. The Drakes will need to be pulled 100 meters apart as well so that the two tank groups are not getting the AOEs crossed (the debuffs). Upwards of 8-9 healers might be needed for this group depending on the strength of your raid.
Bring plenty of power regen. You will need it. Focus on the named first and foremost and handle the drakes after the named is dead.
Good Luck.

Burn one fae drake, then the monarch that pops, then the other monarch.
We tried keeping a healer at range so they could cure groups of the stifle. They still got stunned.
