I disagree with people saying to do MPG & CoA for loot volume instead of Vishimtar. The particular problem I think is that killing Vishimtar isn't about loot volume. Sure, the other stuff is good, but kililng Vishimtar is all about Eye of Vishimtar. That drop is available nowhere else, and produces uniquely powerful items for many (not quite all anymore, rangers are an exception) classes, with great stats. Pretty much every member of your raid force will want to loot the Eye before you move on from him. Waiting four months to start on him, if you can start on him, means farming him for another four months somewhere down the line, when perhaps you'd rather be working on your strats for Snowtail or Daosheen.
