After a day of many multiple attempts at the Black Spindle; I have a new found respect for for those who have it. We (multiple groups of "we") could easily get to the Taniks wannabe with 6 min remaining but then it's blight/adds management hell. We managed to get the big guy down once with 1:30 remaining but there were so many adds.
so.
many.
adds.
So hats off to you Black Spindle holders. Hope it's worth the PTSD
EDIT: Big shoutout to @Sniping piikey, and an LFG random @UNR34LG4MER. Thanks to them, I managed to finally get the Black Spindle. I was starting to think I was the problem.

I soloed it this weekend :-) I've been trying to get that sniper for the longest time and i finally got it. You have no idea how many times I've tried and failed at getting it. But i finally figured out the method of doing it. First thing is destroy all blights in the room before 30 seconds are up other wise more adds will spawn. Then kill all majors and shielded guys. Then kill red bar adds then shoot boss. There are 4 waves at the taniks room after the bosses health goes down a little more adds and blights spawn. Kills 1 wave then attacking boss then killing next wave and so on and so fourth is how you defeat it. I had 18 secs left when i finally defeated the boss. Its alot ALOT EASIER doing it this way. Blights, majors and shielded guys, then small adds then boss and repeat until you finally kill the last and 4th wave then all you have to do is just kill the boss. After the fourth wave thats it.
