Did this mob with pal / monk / shm / clr / necro / mage / mage.
We were able to avoid the wandering eye by positioning in the NE corner of the room (the corner immediately on your right upon coming into the room). If the squire is up, you'll need to pull her away while you move the group into the corner, as she WILL aggro if you try to move into the corner while shes up.
For tanking, we waited until the eye pathed out of the room, and then we had the casters on the east side of the northern pillar, and we had the tank pull her to the NW corner (this is close enough for complete heal).
Squire Alkaa uses 2 effects, Savage Slash and fire breath. During the 2 minutes I was alive to parse, she cast Savage Slash 32 times and fire breath 3 times.
Savage Slash - My parses don't show that many people got hit with it (it appears have to very small range, and I believe can be avoided if you fight at the outside of her melee).
Fire Breath - This is the same directional fire DD / DoT used by Sootmane the Brute. Make sure that the squire is pointed AWAY from the casters and DPS, or they'll get hit with it.
As far as melee goes, Squire Alkaa is a BEAST. her max hit appears to be just a bit over 7k (Max hit against a 17% shielding monk was 6985) and she quads. Another useful piece of information is that she uses SINGLE TARGET RAMPAGE. Really wish we had know that going into the fight. The casters that got hit with it reported being hit for the full 7k, so be prepared. Be sure to have the right person on rampage, or you'll be losing casters right and left.

Squire Alkaa put out a total of 1671 DPS during the time that parse was taken, but that DPS number is low due to the fact that I had void dance running for the first little bit. Squire Alkaa did as much as 16585 in a single melee round, and had a rolling DPS that ranged from 1800 DPS to 4300 DPS.
I would suggest defensive / avoidance discs for whoever is tanking her. We had 2 healers, which helped, but her DPS is very spikey.
Also, Squire Alkaa is partially slowable.
Anyways, hope this info helps.
